Wow..1.5 days. Thanks very much for your persistence. Before murga went down Jemimah and I were discussing creating a repo for Saluki at smokey01.com. Jemimah is insistent on using Midori, but Seamonkey can definately go into the repository, along with Firefox (my default browser). Plus Midori is small, so it cuts down on the size of the iso. Also, Seamonkey was at version 2.4.1 the last time I checked (they update way tooo fast), but I could probably repackage your Seamonkey with your custom addons..unless you compiled it specifically for Saluki. |

Hi Jemimah Posting from saluki-alpha using midori now - absolutely superb. Good to see what your plans for mainline puppy are. Thanks for an outstanding compact browser. Very best regards - Ray |

Sage, If you want a small Internet Apps downloader, I have attached it below: You can get Flashplayer, Firefox, Seamonkey, Opera and Gnome-Office. I tested them for SolidPup (Wary-5.1.1 based), so they will be fine in Saluki. I will probably make it availiable in the 'additional pets' section, but want to improve it first. Edit: I have made a new version of GetPackage that you can get -> here. Last edited by Tman on Sun 04 Dec 2011, 15:22; edited 1 time in total |

I don't know what I am missing here, but here is what I have found so far. Installation of Seamonkey 2 and above seems to be missing libjpg.so.8 and even after install, the browser icon does not seem to start it. I can start it from a terminal with the same command shown in /usr/local/defaultbrowser. Also, other applications that are missing but have a desktop icon are write - no abiword calc - no gnumeric paint - no mtpaint I know it is a work in progress, but a small working browser would be good also. Also, a bit off subject, but the flashing icons above the message window on the forum are distracting as hell and some could blame them for seizures. So not a good addition in my humble opinion. Additional, Tman and others, Seamonkey when installed is as I stated above. And that was Seamonkey 2.05. |

Midori tested working ok in Slacko  . Flash testing with video ok too.
If you run Slacko and want to install jemimah's midori you need to symlink libssl.so.0.9.8 to 1.0.0

About the kernel. I remember reading one of Pemasu threads saying that Barry's 2.6.9.4 kernel was missing something in the compile, but can't remember exactly what that thing was...maybe it was bluetooth. I am not sure if we should stick with that kernel or go with another one atm. We should hold off compiling of drivers until this gets sorted out.

If your going to use gstreamer, consider phonon, it's a good system and stable! might replace a few other things while at it. The Phonon multimedia library and its backend plugins being: Phonon DirectShow Phonon GStreamer Phonon MMF Phonon MPlayer Phonon QuickTime Phonon VLC Phonon WaveOut Phonon Xine Oh yes, and the url is http://phonon.kde.org/. regards scsijon ps Tman ff8 causes problems with Thunderbird/Eudora If directly installed, not via an ff7>ff8 upgrade. |

Barry`s 2.6.39.4 kernel (.config) misses bluetooth modules. I compiled them as modules backwards and included them to the kernel pet. I dont remember straight if it did miss anything other important. People got their bluetooth connections working using stu90`s pet for handling. But Jemimah is knowledgeable of bluetooth stuff. |

What kind of issues, specifically? Pemasu, Thanks! I was hoping to get a response from you.

It's definitely missing suspend/hibernate capability. If we collect a list of other stuff we want, I can rebuild it or we can try to talk Barry into adding the missing items. |

I think you should talk to ttuuxxx about kernel-related stuff, cause I don't know too much about the specific details of the kernel compile process. I'm sure whatever you decide will be good. |

had the same missing dependency Look forward to midori in next ISO (early days - thanks Tman) Having a basic browser and then a browser choice (as in Lucid) works. Choice of programs/substitutes seems sound _________________ Puppy WIKI |
