Akita Linux, Beta 16 ISO
For what it is worth:
Been running Akita for several days now, and found - sorry to say - nothing to gripe about
It runs stable,
I could customize it to my usual layout,
All applications I have started, worked.
I even got Conky to work without black background. Now, THAT is an accomplishment!
So, all in all, a very good job sc0ttman!
Included is one more file in de translation, that I picked from further up this page.

Damn lol ... How are you connecting to the net? I assume on a desktop PC, not laptop or netbook, right?wuwei wrote:For what it is worth:

Just a note to others though, the gettext'd version of the JWM tool thing has been supersceded, and the in-file translations, as listed above are now being used.. I am keeping the .pot files and such anyway, as I still have the gettext script, and it may come in handy as some point... At least I can use them to translate other bits n bobs..

Re: localized menus
It work great, I'm sure it fits nicely into Wary, however, Akita has the Puppy-desktop NLS system, and so desktop icons are also updated.. Techno script does not do this, fixmenus_on_locale must be used, and for some reason I cannot work out, I am having trouble integrating fixmenus_on_locale into your script - it doesn't work for me..L18L wrote:

Good, I did mess with those packages, and as far as I understand (which is not at all well), I've got a 'sweet spot' - a good mix of packges for Pup4... My twin brother has to use pppoe in Poland, I want him to test it, but he likes FreeBSDwuwei wrote:sc0ttman wrote:

Once connection is successful, the script should automatically be symlinked into /root/Startup, with a confirmation message... So that's another script to i18n Translation is something like:

By the way, I have added conky 1.7.2 into Akita, as standard, and will create a startup script in /root/Startup, plus an entry for the 'startups' program, so users can easily turn conky on at first boot
The startups entry will need translating:

Good morning sc0ttman.
Yes Puppy and pppoe are a bit in conflict. Yet, as I stated before, Akita is a positive exception in a long time. Last Puppy that started pppoe from the symlink in /root/Startup was ttuuxxx's 432v3.
This file is from /etc/conky in my Akita installation. Earlier conky versions still had a conky.rc in /root. And keep in mind, that the partitions would have to be modified according to your setup.

JWM tray clock font color
This time I have a question for you sc0ttman:
In Akita the date and time in the tray bottom right are in black font color. This is fine for lighter tray backgrounds, but not for dark ones.
Where can I change the font color for date and time to look something like this:
Edit:
Figured it out myself.

Conky setup
@wuwei, Thanks for sharing you Conky.
Thanks in advance
I see your files listed, but I do NOT see which order you installed those.... Conky is another bear in the Puppy woods. Especially when you don't appreciate the black background behind the display area. ... Most of the time I get it accomplished with the installation of these 4 files (see picture) and an entry in /root/.xinitrc of ...
- When you have a moment, could you share the order in which to install those PETs?
- And, if you could, would you share the Configuration file for the "conky.jpg" desktop display you show?
Thanks in advance
Hi gcmartin,
glad to be of assistance:
Order of files in the picture counted left to right: 1-2-3-4
Order of installation: 3-2-1-4
4 = qiv is only needed if you have the black background problem. I didn't have it in Akita, So try without #4 first.
The conky.conf file for the conky in the picture is available on the previous page in my post Mon Aug 22, 2011 10:32 am "conky.zip". I couldn't upload it unzipped.
Have fun!

I replaced /root/.jwm/themes/23oz-jwmrc with your version, ran JWM Config, and the changes were accepted. Clock is now white on black. Just right.
Incidentally: In Europe one displays dates in this order: Day of the week - date - month.
In order to have the tray clock look like "Di 23 Aug 16.30" all that is needed to do is change a tiny bit in /root/.jwmrc-tray:
From this <Clock format=" %a %b %d, %H:%M ">minixcal</Clock>
to this <Clock format=" %a %d %b, %H:%M ">minixcal</Clock>
Further observation:
Quite a few changes in Akita require a reboot, not just a restart of X.
I noticed this with additional programs which showed up on the menu only after a reboot.
Also the change with the clock font color wasn't accepted until after a reboot.

(but I still prefer the Puplite theme)
I am not sure about the ISO I uploaded, but the Akita I am running at the moment has PupClockSet installed, so changing the time format is as easy as clicking on the time, and choosing the format you like - I predicted this would be required by most Non-English users...Incidentally: In Europe one displays dates in this order: Day of the week - date - month.

Hmmm, not sure what happening there, one of the desktop refresh scripts might be missing something - I do not seem to have this problem, but the scripts concerned are updated quite a bit...Further observation:

** EDIT1: Actually, I think I do - sometimes Puppy 4 requires users to manually run /usr/sbin/fixmenus, or if not, then users sometimes need restart jwm - so the changes can be seen after running /usr/sbin/fixmenus...
I plan to replace all references/calls to fixmenus with jwm_menu_create - which also restarts jwm, so this should remove the problem, and make a few scripts much faster (petget, and others)...
If I have missed anything, and you find other scripts which do not update correctly, or which break the localisation of the menu, then I would like to hear about them!
**
------------
I hope to get another ISO up very soon, once I have added all the Spanish translations and a few other things...
It should be a good one
**
EDIT2: I just remembered... I tried your conky rc file, I put it in /etc/conky and removed the one in /root - but it would not work - I seem to be stuck with the old layout and widgets (or whatever) ...
Am I doing it wrong? (I know I need to delete some of the partition stuff as well....)

My plans for "Akita Linux"
Sc0ttman,
I'm still a newbie to Linux after three years using Mint. I know nothing about programming. BUT, I've tried every major 'light' distro trying to make an old desktop work again and have noticed a few things maybe you can implement in Akita.
I've heard it depends on kernel and others say the hardware searcher(another word but don't remember it). ANYWAY, most 'light' distros don't have great usb wireless drivers. Puppy is the exception.
Those that don't have Puppy's driver support don't contain 'built-essential'/ 'make' so the installer has to download somehow and install several packages before he/she can get on-line to download updates, compile drivers, etc. Kind of pointless to me, especially if you only have one computer. Although I suspect most Linux users have more than one computer.
Non-English support is another thing. It seems to me, if Akita will be light-ish, the majority of the people hoping to use it, won't have the latest netbook or technology. They're probably using technology from at least 3-7 years ago. I also suspect, but have never seen a demographic study, that most of those people don't live in English-speaking countries. I would assume - German, Romance languages, Arabic and Mandarin would be enough. Just my .5 cent. Don't have the brain power to give you 2 cents worth.

Thanks for your response sc0ttman.
The archive contains a file named conky.conf.
If you have used conky1.7.2.pet, then conky installs itself to /etc/conky.
If you have an older version it installs to /root.
In the first case the config file is called conky.conf and resides in /etc/conky.
In the second case that exact same config file is called .conky.rc and sits in /root.
In other words, you can take my file and depending where your previous config file is located, just rename the new and replace the old with the new. That's all.
can't wait to try it.I hope to get another ISO up very soon,

Re: My plans for "Akita Linux"
I am hoping that hardware support in Akita is good - maybe not for netbooks and newer laptops, but in general it should be OK - the majority of desktop PCs around the world should have no problems..trefall123 wrote:ANYWAY, most 'light' distros don't have great usb wireless drivers.

Those that don't have Puppy's driver support don't contain 'built-essential'/ 'make' so the installer has to download somehow and install several packages before he/she can get on-line to download updates, compile drivers, etc
I have already added many netbook and EeePC drivers to Akita, but STILL cannot get wifi working on my EeePC 1000HA!! But I did get the correct 1024x600 resolution, after choosing the 'intel' driver in Xorgwizard... That is progress..
And yes, compiling drivers in Puppy needs some extra steps - download and install devx and kernel source, BEFORE downloading driver source and compiling them. That is why extra drivers are available in the Puppy Package Manager (PPM)...
Akita will also feature an "OpenGL Installer", so users can easily identify and download the drivers required to get 3D acceleration working for their video card.
I agree - I have received numerous messages about a previous project of mine called "Puppy Arcade" - I read various blogs, comments and review sites which said many users wanted it available in their language, particularly Chinese, Japanese and Russian.Non-English support is another thing. It seems to me, if Akita will be light-ish, the majority of the people hoping to use it, won't have the latest netbook or technology... I also suspect... that most of those people don't live in English-speaking countries. I would assume - German, Romance languages, Arabic and Mandarin would be enough
So Akita has good localisation, at least for English, French, Spanish and Russian. I would also like to get Arabic, Chinese and Japanese 'language packs' made, so these languages can be used as well. But this is something for others to contribute.

v 0.5 of jwm tools is out:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=70804
I added an image viewer tool (xpm, png and jpeg) and a (over?)simplified drive tray ... I did have to use mount in the devicehandler script, but other than that, it is just shell and jwm
my drive tray reads sys and proc for drive info (instead of all the piping of fdisk, probepart & guess_fstype), so it lists unformatted, extended and swap partitions, but just display a message when clicked ... I may give the option to open them with gparted or something (by just changing the "exit" in the jwm_notify command to gparted ...)
the image viewer is just a hack, that I eventually wanted for the background setter, but it can at least view multiple images and resize
