I would prefer a GUI program.

I did a search and found this one.

Smokey says Quote:
I'm a little confused about Gxine. The one I am using in lupu-5.0 is the one that came with 5.0. Are you saying you are having problems with it? I will see if I can find a copy and try it in lupu-507.

Playdays says:
Yes smokey, I used the pets gxine, xine-lib, and mplayer_codecs_basic that were installed in Lucid Pup 5.0, and installed them in 507 and the resulting gxine runs but it does not play everything it should--in fact it only plays a few things,.

It plays mpg video and mp3 audio and maybe some others but not most video and not flac audio.

There must be something else that is in 5.0, well duh, but I don't have time to chase it down right now. If you did then I would put it into PPM in time for the release of 5.1. Thanks.

I remember that when we made the shift from gxine and installed a pet of mplayer to test, someone reported that it made gxine not work as well anymore. But I would like to have it for PPM for sure if it could be compatible.
so maybe they had no time to find out how to get them to coexist?

I maybe looked too hastely but found not GXine in the PPM.

I think me have GXine in Quirky? Not sure though. Would be cool to be able to run RealAudioQuicktime in LupQ too.

Maybe the files I have on my computer is from an older RAM say 2008 or 2009 and they changed some codec or so?
I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

slim down lupq 509

#203 Post by don570 »

I'm still using lupq 509 but I will download 510 and test.

These observations apply to version 509

Some suggestions to save a bit of space in the ISO.

I'm not sure if these 2 files are needed ...

/usr/share/doc/nls/ffconvert
/usr/share/doc/nls/ffconvert/ffconvert_ja.po
/usr/share/doc/nls/ffconvert/ffconvert.pot


The application 'retrovol' can be stripped to half it's size
by Iguleder's program strippkg.

As well there's a new version of Asunder available
but I don't know if it's worth upgrading

lupq-510 rc :

Runs very well on my hardware as almost all Puppies.

Internet Broadband : OK
Printed from geany without even printing the testpage :)

ICEWM hasn`t any Menu as far as I can see and there is no WM switcher at both WM :(

Midori is freezing sometimes or killed all of a sudden at all puppies somehow. Even the installation of the larger Midori at other Puppies from technosaurus post for midori seems to be just a little better for that. Also SeaMonkey at dpup-005 shows such behaviour .....

~20 MB less than luci 511 standard

Thanks don. I realized that many other applications are not stripped.

Code: Select all

# find  /usr/bin -type f|xargs file| grep -w 'not'
/usr/bin/glxgears: ..., not stripped
/usr/bin/glxinfo: ..., not stripped
/usr/bin/abiword: ..., not stripped
/usr/bin/asunder: ..., not stripped
/usr/bin/dbus-daemon:  ..., not stripped
/usr/bin/gnome-mplayer: ..., not stripped
Oh my...
Abiword is 16.9MB but becomes 5.6MB after stripped!
I wonder why no one have not ever realized?
And why it occurs if the Lucid Puppy was build by the woof?

Bonjour shinobar,
"merci " for your time and energy with this new lupq-510 !
I will test it in a short future.
Here on lupq-509 using only midori for googling some information, when clicking to download a pdf file, there came a 1st dialog box asking whether to save/save as/cancel/open;
if click on open, then a dialog box "Encrypted Document" asks for password.
if click on save, then the well saved pdf file can be normaly opened whithout any password- nor encryption- warning.
I installed Panzerkopf forum member's "gv.gz" (see link here after)
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 15d6e39222
but without any change.
On another PC + lupq-509 + Panserkopf's gv.gz + Firefox browser, the same pdf document is opened without any warning.

Is this another "limit" of midori.?

A plus tard, Charlie

LupQ-510s STRIPPED

#209 Post by shinobar »

I uploaded lupq-510s.iso.
825f0afcb920196f2d827fbd60426c5a lupq-510s.iso
The version indicates '510', same as the last lupq-510.iso.
  • Abiword and some excutable and libraries was not stripped. They are all stripped.
  • Removed sylpheed shared libraries not used.
  • 'LC_ALL=C' in /usr/sbin/pupdial because the PupDial seem to fail with some European locale.
Hopefully this is the final.

Hi again shinobar!
on a PIII 600MHz+384KRam+2MB swap partition (163MB free space)
+frugal install of lupq-509+wine-1.1.43+fontmap-8.11-lupu-1+lang-pack-support-fr+efax-gtk-3.2.4-lucid+gsfonts-8.11-lup
(No firefox nor any other quickpet program installed)

problem:
Early this morning, a couple of minute after bootup, I opened midori + moved the mouse cursor rather fastly across the screen while DSL modem connection process to internet (not yet achieved at that moment), X server hanged up - i.e. got a black screen and the following comments:

Code: Select all

...Starting X, specs in etc/X11/xorg.conf , startup apps /root/.xinitrc...
[drm_wait_ring] *ERROR* space : 65520 wanted 65528
[drm_wait_ring] *ERROR* lockup
Exited from X . Type "xwin" [fvwm95|jwm] to restart X
Then doing xorgwizard and afterwards xwin gave the same blackscreen + same comments.
Then I typed "reboot".

I tried to reproduce this on same conditions whithout getting any problem.
Everything looks OK ... till now...

question:
so what could it be ?

Cheers, Charlie

Bug: frugalinstaller v.1.3 with NTFS oartition

#212 Post by shinobar »

Found a bug. :lol:
The frugalinstaller v.1.3 fails to mount NTFS partition. In accurate, mounts NTFS partitions with wrong way.
To escape the bug, mount the NTFS partition BEFORE starting the frugalinstaller.

We need another trial before finalizing LupQ?

another application that barry added to more recent woofs is scottman's advert blocker http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... c5ce156982. i add it everytime after install, you may consider adding this to the final. other than that i don't come across any issues. Image

advert blocker

#215 Post by shinobar »

Thanks sinc for the information.
As for LupQ(and lupu), the internet browser is your choice.
So i think such a tool can be optional.

EDIT:
The scottman's advert blocker seems browser independent.
But at this moment we are finalizing LupQ in couple of days..., I like to consider for the future version.

I did a dl and booted it and all seems okay.

I did not checked any browser but I did test to do .avi, .mov, .mpg, .vmv, and so on and all seems to work.

I have a severe head ache so I am not so motivated to do much testing today. :)

you had i915 in the kernel line of the boot code. I have intel so I tested to have it too but not sure if it changed anything. My PB computer do have intel 915circquits.
I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

Works great except with Dude-0.4.1. Mouse clicks lose their focus frequently, and will not execute the icon clicked. Instead it shows the menu that is set for that mouse click in Dude. Problem is corrected by restartX, however it returns. This doesn't happen with Lucid 5.1.1.

Cheers,
Jim

Thanks jim for the report.
I am not sure but you may need to add the settings in your /root/.jwm/jwmrc-personal:

EDIT: You may not need.
Hmm. I am looking for...

EDIT2:
Boot up LupQ-510s with RAM mode, installed DuDE-0.4.1.
I cannot find any problem.

I installed DuDE on a fresh frugal installation with a new save file.
