scribus works
Sorry... Forget my remark about scribus not working. It works now.
Re: pulseaudio
Last time I tried, bluetooth audio was possible, but still quite a hassle. When I get back to my desk on Thursday, I'll get out my bluetooth speaker and see if I can get it to work and write a tutorial.stifiling wrote:Saluki runs very well. any way of getting pulseaudio working on it? pulseaudio doesn't appear to be of high importance in puppy world.
is there a better or equal way of using a bluetooth stereo headset on linux...without all the commandline song and dance?

Re: adobe air
Edit: Updated, added mm.cfg to AdobeAIR-2.6-SDK.pet
I've packaged AdobeAir 2.6 SDK this appears to work ok, not all apps are Linux friendly, I have packaged a Picasa Image Browse this works.

Adobe AIR for Linux is here:

unfortunately for linux there is no later version than 2.6 and it is meant for Gnome or KDE so I do not know it it can be made to install. But it would be great if you could get it to work...

hi geoffrey
a lot of the errors are output from the adobe air sdk debugger. and don't affect the working of the app.
you can turn this off by creating a 'new blank file' in /root/ called ...... open the file, paste this in and save
this turns off the debugger
Note: if an app fails, it's worth trying it with a different version of adobe air sdk.... some prefer the newest and some the older sdks

icon bug?
strange: in Saluki 22, when I plug in a thumbdrive there appears an icon on the desktop. But that does not happen with an USB harddisk
For usb hdd's the icon is there when Saluki is booted with the hdd connected. But it does not show up when plugged in later.
and... it is a pity that pets and sfses which are made for lucid puppy do not always work for saluki.
for saluki I would like a working K3b (cd /dvd burner). I know it is not as compact as pburn but it looks pretty. It fits better with the fancy compiz and emerald options.

BACON
Jemimah,
Is BACON supported in Saluki (it was in Wary 5.1.4, and I think in Racy also). Barry was quite interested becuase it presented a way to do simple menu's. The BACON version in Wary 5.1.4 was V23, the new release for BACON is V25 (May 1 2012). I recall Barry's SNS was made with it.

Which forum moving forward?
Hi Jemimah and All
As Saluki now has its own website http://saluki-linux.com/Forum/index.php, is it proper to ask Saluki fans to use that moving forward?
Cheers

I'm starting to get the hang of this, the tut said to link the .swf , .xml files, but it seems it needs more than that,
I've been linking some of the directories as well else they didn't work as they should, this was the main reason I was having trouble,
though there are still some apps that refuse to run, I'll keep plodding along making these, let me know how they work,
better still if I hear nothing then I guess those that have installed them got them working
Here is yet another one, The Photographer's Ephemeris http://photoephemeris.com/

Geoffy's air

Re: Geoffy's air
Hi Dromeno,Dromeno wrote:I have installed Geoffry's air pet in Saluki 22.

The air files need to be extracted into a new folder, it's a bit of a pain doing it as there are symlinks that need to be made,
these have to be done with the folder in it's installed location, Ive been creating these air apps in /usr/share/NAME_OF_APP,
It would be better to have a look inside one of the apps I've uploaded to see how I constructed it,
to extract the air files you need only drag it with the right mouse button and select extract here, they appear to be renamed zip files.
Another thing is that flash needs to be installed for it to work, here is where I got the info I used on how to do it,
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/AdobeAir It's mentioned the the *.swf and *.xml files need to be symlinked,
I found that most of the files and folders need to be linked with some app's, I find it hard to explain how to do it, as it can be trial and error with them.
Give me a link to the air file you want and I'll see if I can get it to work and I'll package it for you.
I also have a few more app's that I will be posting soon.
So far no reports of them not working,
AdobeAIR app Focused, I like this one, a fullscreen text editor,http://spreadingfunkyness.com/focused/.

AdobeAIR GMDesk, Run GMail, Google Calendar, Google Docs, Google Maps, Google Reader and Picasa Web Albums as a stand-alone application.
This kinda works ok, might find it a little sluggish, but if you don't want to run these apps in a web browser it seems fine.
