Slacko RC2
Frugal install to USB flash drive
Save option - save to partition sdb1(the flash drive)
menu->shutdown->reboot or poweroff
Goes to saving session to sdb1 message
Then back to desktop.
Does not poweroff computer or reboot.
If you make a save file to flash drive. no problems.
This only happens if you use save option save to sdb1 (the flash drive)

Ok, now I am confused?01micko wrote:Am using shino's gtkdialog splash but with a mod so you can use a non-stock icon
After shinobar's post of the line change, I did that to gtkdialog-splash and it worked fine.
I previously had tried Barry's script and it worked, but did not allow the custom font to be displayed whereas the modded original in Slacko RC2 allowed the custom font and still worked fine.
I download your new file and it does not look anything like any of the others when I examine the script and although it works, it is back to a basic font being used.
So with 3 choices,
(1) Original Provided in Slacko RC 2 with modded line provided by shinobar.
(2) Barry's gtkdialog-splash script from Wary.
(3) The latest one you have modified and provided.
And each one is different and each one works for me.
The visual difference is that option 1 still will display the fancy font in the yaf-splash message.
Now on to scanpci.
I pulled the file from your woof download and copied it to /usr/bin.
And the original file in /root/.packages/builtin_files/scanpci should have had 3 lines in it being:
/usr
/usr/bin
scanpci
The last line was missing and to me, that means that woof evidently failed to install it.
Consider the following a rant and it can be ignored.
I should say that I have never used woof to build anything and when I try to follow the directions in the readme, modify the files needed to be modified, the download fails to find some files, finds new files and wants to download files for all the series of puppies.
Also, step one never seems to complete.
But that shows me that building a Puppy is not as easy as we are lead to believe.
End of rant.

Everything went as expected and was easy to follow progress.

virtualbox (SFS)
OK, now available:
virtualbox-4.1.4-2-slacko.sfs for slacko both RC2 and RC++.
It contains virtualbox with kernel modules and some dependencies, SDL and GL.
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 055#481055
it runs both on Slacko RC2/RC++, but RC++ cannot be the guest OS in the VirtualBox.
EDIT: RC++ can be the guest OS in the VirtualBox with the PAE setting at the VirtualBox, Settings >> System >> Processor.

Sometimes it's good,sometimes Menu displays half English, half French... sometimes only a black background (I must do "restart X server')....

Man! scanpci has been a pain! It has to be inserted manually. I tried to hide it in other packages.. it just doesn't make it! Some very weird woof bug. Even if it wasn't in it doesn't seem to bork net_setup.sh, and if it does then Frisbee or SNS are viable alternatives. I had such problems with frisbee earlier but it has grown on me!8-bit wrote: Now on to scanpci.

Other bugs such as getopt and zdump were easy fixes.

01micko. Could you have conditional check for scanpci in some pinstall.sh script. Check which has some error in code.
I just uploaded 5.X.9 and wondered where geany.png icon has gone. I checked my cumulative pinstall.sh and it had error in geany.png check (check to make geany.xpm symlink to geany.png). I had made wrong location for ./ folders. The result. Geany.png was removed. Lol.

Puppy Phone link in Slickpet
1.2 version is not available for download (only 1.1)?
but if you go to PPM and look in Internet you will see Psip (Puppy Phone) 1.2
1.2 working well in Slacko RC2 incidentally

Frugal, with save to partition, not using a save file.

Frugal install in a separate directory on an ext4 partition with a 4fs save file located in same directory. Additional details of my installation are here.bigpup wrote:How is Slacko installed?Jim1911 wrote:Power off, reboots computer instead of shutting it down.
