1.0.6 final bugs

#1 Post by GuestToo »

these wrappers use $@ to pass parameters, so if there are spaces in the PATH to the file(s) passed as parameters, it won't work

defaultcalendar
defaultcontact
defaultemail
defaulthtmleditor
defaulttexteditor
defaultwordprocessor

for example, if you click readme.txt in /mnt/home/My Documents, nothing will happen

of course, changing $@ to "$@" fixes the problem

Thanks, will fix.

...no, I just checked.
they already have quotes around the $@.
This must be an upgrade problem, the new ones not overwriting the old ones.

I take that back. I put quotes in the original files, but not in all cases in the
post-install scripts, pinstall.sh, in each unleashed package.
Okay, I'll go through the packages now, find the culprits, also burniso2cd.

...so, looks like a candidate for the service pack.

Note, some of them, like defaultpaint, should have the quotes, do for me anyway, as they were not overridden by any pinstall.sh script.

Pmount shows completely wrong values on my system.
The old one worked ok.

It does not display all drives, and it says every drive is 1984 M in size.

I just wanted to submit a screenshot with MUT (works mostly correct) for comparison, but MUT does not start with the KDE-usr_more.sfs

I will add one later.

Please tell me what you need for additional info.
MUT does not display hda10, but that is since Pupy 104.

Maybe my corrupt partitiontable confuses it, but the old version worked ok.
This is what I get on the commandline:
# pmount
/usr/sbin/pmount: line 36: 11166 Terminated xmessage -bg "#ff00ff" -title "Puppy drive mounter" -center -buttons "" "Please wait for the usb-storage driver to load...

Note: A USB1 interface takes longer to initialise than a USB2 interface,
in the former case up to 25 seconds, in the latter about 4 seconds.
If a plugged-in USB drive does not show up in the next window, click
the REFRESH button to probe the hardware again."

i put a fix for the default-wrappers-spaces bug in my SP106 package

i uploaded an (experimental) pmount bugfix dotpup-package here
if it seems to work ok, i could add it to SP106

it only fixes the incorrect size information bug ... it does not fix problems with non-standard/corrupt partition tables

i don't think pmount tries to show you every partition you might have on your drive

yes, that fixes the size :)
Thank you, G2 :)

> i don't think pmount tries to show you every partition you might have on your drive

Hm, but the old version in Puppy 105 did.
So is it intended not to display all, or is it a bug?
i would prefer to see all.
It is not that important, as there is MUT, but I thought I better let you know.

partview does not display the used and free sizes ... it displays 1/2 the values

i don't know if this is a bug or an intentional feature

anyway, i uploaded a hacked version that displays the true values, here

i could put it in SP106 if it actually is a bug, and if my bugfix seems to work ok

HD Install / MUT bug

MUT
MUT will not recognize /dev/hdb10 (I notice above that it will not recognize /dev/hda10 either). Pmount does.

HD Install
Sadly, I chose to install Puppy to /dev/hdb10. The HD install script will not recognize /dev/hdb10 and fails. HOWEVER, if you use the "install-hd2.sh" script that was introduced as a bug-fix in 1.0.5 then everything is OK.

You mean, the install-hd2.sh in 1.0.6 is not work, but the bugfix one will?
...hmmm, that's odd. Do you have the bugfix one handy and can post it,
I'll need to compare the two, see what I neglected to fix.

I installed puppy to it's own partition with no problems.
Heaven is on the way, until then let's get the truth out!

rpm2cpio is still broken

my unrpm dotpup still works ok

# ldd -d `which rpm2cpio` | grep not

libbz2.so.1.0 => not found
librpm-4.2.so => not found
librpmdb-4.2.so => not found
librpmio-4.2.so => not found

libbz2.so.1.0 just needs to be symlinked

Barry,

Here's the script I'd kept from 1.0.5. I tried the HD install script in 1.0.6 twice, and it failed both times when it couldn't recognize /dev/hdb10. However, trying the script that I'd downloaded for 1.0.5 to allow it to install worked like a charm first time.

Not sure why, since I thought the CD one would work ....

There is a dotpup with these libs, but it is quite huge

Printing problem in 1.0.6 final

#18 Post by jcoder24 »

I was able to print from 1.0.6 RC with the builtin printing support easily without any problems. However, with the final release I got errors where gs was unable to find some libraries. I had to copy the following files to /usr/lib

/.usr_cram/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6
/.usr_cram/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6
/.usr_cram/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6
/.usr_cram/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6
/.usr_cram/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6

Has anything changed related to printing since the rc?

Nothing has changed, or rather nothing that I would think would make any difference, between 1.0.6rc and 1.0.6.

gs is okay on my system.
Those libraries are in /usr/X11R6/lib and gs finds them ok.

Try this:
# echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
...is /usr/X11R6/lib in the path?

I forgot to mention that I was using a multisession cd.
The path looked fine on the cd that had the problem.

Strangely enough I burnt a new cd and had no problems.
