I would keep Cgtkcalc on the repo only.
wouldn't that be nice from from a confusing 5 calculators to 2, Galculator and Gmeasures, and they both pretty much explain what they are in there names

Sorry, I was at my dad's for the last two weeks, and he doesn't have internet access (he doesn't want anything to do with the net).

Dad's fiance likes to bake, so it was a Very Good break Cool

The peget thing is really simple. Just two lines changed: lines 971 and 981 of /usr/sbin/petget in Puppy 4.1.2, with the change being the addition of quotation marks:

ok I add my fixed menu to the package manager pet package, I also added pizzasgood fix to it, Plus removed the menu item Check 'dependencies installed packages' since its back to being a part of the petget system. So that item would be just added clutter to the menu.

Yes you guessed it Smile

!!!!!!
I found Barry's configs for SeaMonkey, so were out of the deep now, I can compile you a version very close to the same size, well the code never gets smaller Smile

But first I have to install puppy grrrrrrrrr, Usually when things are real complex they fail when compilibg/running live. I'll try it first and see if it works who knows.
Oh ya I guess I was right when I said he compiled it Smile

Ya and I'll use some of his code in my next firepup release, it will reduce the size a few MB I think. My last config was around 3/4 of a full screen line and Barry's is 5 1/2 lines, But Seamonkey has a few extras over Firefox, just like FirePup has a few features over seamonkey and Firefox. But those are added after the compile.
did you try the "Live Help" on the users taskbar? also the murga chat, Sourceforge, puppylinuxCa, Freshmeat, Gnome Search engines I made and installed, they work better than the default ones like on this forum.
upper right hand corner box. Also youtube video works fullscreen with firepup.

I don't know what the actual problem is - possibly a bug with how mozilla products use a gtk widget, or maybe a bug with gtk itself. If you compile GTK with the --enable-debug option, Seamonkey and Firefox won't crash anymore from the insert key. They will still output error messages when you press it though.

As for Retrovol, well, I did say it's unfinished. If you switch it to a horizontal layout it becomes much more compact (though some of the alignment is off at the moment). You do that by editing the /root/.retrovolrc file (the template is that dot.retrovolrc file in the source). If you switch to horizontal, be sure to also adjust the dimensions so that the height and width aren't weird. You also need to delete all the default sliders included in that file, since they change based on what the soundcard has available. You can get an unformatted list with this command:
amixer controls

If nothing is specified, then Retrovol will just use all of the ones it finds, which should look similar to the "all" mode of alsamixer. Eventually there will be a dialog box that will let you specify which sliders to show and in what order, and it will adjust the .retrovolrc file automatically. The idea is that there will be four modes: Playback, Capture, All, and Custom.

Also missing is balance control. And the enumerated ones (like the input source) aren't usable yet. They just show the current one. And there's no keyboard control. Lots of work left Smile

It isn't an equalizer, so unless you have a bass slider in Alsamixer, you shouldn't have one in Retrovol.
