(is hard to defend this, but let's "blame" the UI that is not very helpful after an 18h day  )

I was cross compiling an ARMv7 kernel in FatDog 600a2 and my cross compiler needed mpc, a small math library. So here is the pet compiled in FD from the T2 source, for your devx Latter Hmm, the original pet (~33kb) was generated by "new2dir make install > dir2pet" and from what I see had no so libs only the dev lib. The so libs where installed in FatDog directly! 
When I realized it, I untared the original pet included the so libs and run dir2pet but dir2pet failed with
It would appear that it does not like the DEF_version variable (ie pet version) and quits I'll see about that but till then here is the correct pet that includes both libpmc.so and .a using the slacko dir2pet

This is lxpanel-0.5.9, and its dependencies, menu-data and menu-cache. These pets do overwrite some system files.

Pet for Transmission: Transmission is very old version, no longer supports blocklists. Pet for Frisbee. Had to use network wizard, instead of wpa. Lost my tray icon for wifi, but can connect OK. Like frisbee very well. Pets for them would be appreciated, may need instructions to disable other stuff to use them. Many thanks to anybody who can help. |

I'm open to suggestion to improve the GUI.
The System SFS Loader is a "legacy" application and was coded in gtkdialog; I now do most of the GUI in gtk-server which is leap-and-bounds more flexible. Btw - thanks for hosting a mirror for Fatdog

If you get the mpc libs from T2 compile (t2-packs), it only has the static library (libmpc.a). It does not come with the dynamic library (libmpc.so) - the idea being, the file is so small so that it is expected to be included in the executables that use it; when those executables are built. That is how T2 built the mpc. Personally, I used to have tons of these small .so libs everywhere but following technosaurus suggestions; I'm trying to use the static libraries when those libraries are only used by one or two apps.
The dir2pet in Fatdog is of "heritage" quality - with all bugs etc I have been biten more than once. Whenever it get screwed, however, deleting the pet.specs always automagically cure the disease
I'm a bit wary of including newer version of the tools because I someome reckon that the package-database format (the field descriptions inside pet.specs) have changed a couple of times, since puppy4? Hmmm Plus, kirk has hacked dir2pet to produce xz-compressed files by default.

Since we have imlib2 available, I thought I'd compile feh console image viewer. It's a very cool tool! http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/fatdog600/pets/feh-2.5-x86_64.pet 111k http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/fatdog600/pets/feh_DOC-2.5-x86_64.pet doc files ...it requires "giblib" (I added lib prefix so it's called "libgiblib" [say that 3 times fast!]) http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/fatdog600/pets/libgiblib-1.2.4-x86_64.pet http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/fatdog600/pets/libgiblib_DEV-1.2.4-x86_64.pet http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/fatdog600/pets/libgiblib_DOC-1.2.4-x86_64.pet ...also requires imlib2 (in the FDPM) Enjoy!

Thanks Will. Three questions: 1. Is this patched or unpatched lxpanel? The one in 600 is patched for puppy's menu hierarchy (among other things). 2. Is it stable? The last time I tried to compile newer lxpanel (a couple of years ago) was when it reached 0.5 and it crashed immediately at start-up. 3. How does the menu system work? Does it auto-refresh its menus based on the desktop files in /usr/share/applications, or do we need to run something equivalent to fixmenus? cheers! _________________ Fatdog64, Slacko and Puppeee user.

Would be a fine addition to the pet repo. Thank you.

I made an sfs of SRWare.. Iron http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/fatdog600/sfs/iron-19.1100.0-x86_64.sfs 35MB (includes gconf and dbus_glib, so that's why it's an sfs  plus it's pretty big, even with xz comp)
Checksum: e1eae2da9f98dbbed67828fb4faf52b3 iron-19.1100.0-x86_64.sfs It's not compiled by me, it's the generic version from their site. Also, I had problems compiling gconf from t2 source so I used slackware's 64 bit version. Dbus_glib is from FDPM. It should run as user "spot" if you are user root, but I have an alternate starter script in there allowing running as root.. we all know iron/chrome/chromium hate that! It uses iguleder's library compiled on FD. So, if you need to run it as root all the time you can edit the iron.desktop file and set the exec as iron-root. Have fun! (let me know if it works for you) FOOTNOTE: newcomers to chrome based browsers.. careful.. the cache fills up quick so watch your save file!

Anyone with skills, compile and make avail these: Can you make Transmission pet, newer ver. & Frisbee pet ? Developers are happy with status quo on these 2 programs. wish no more, enough said, they make a very good base program. suggested manual iblock install and copy frisbee fd64-521, except still needs a patch for dhcp??? I am sure others would benefit too. I can not be the only one using transmission and enjoys frisbee. Many thanks, Openwell |

1. This does use the Puppy Linux hierarchy. That is the job of menu-data, which places an application menu in /etc/xdg/menus. The application menu came from Lighthouse Pup 64, with a few changes to add Faenza icons to the main menu. 2. lxpanel-0.5.9 was recently released with a lot of bug fixes.This pet has been very stable for me, although I don't have a laptop to check the battery plugin. The pager has never hang up on one desktop, like it did in version 0.5.8. I left out one plugin,wnckpager, because it was not stable. 3. menu-cache reads /usr/share/applications and /usr/share/desktop-directories, so it does update, and maintains a cache file in ~/.cache/menus. I don't think the fixmenus script is needed. These probably should have been wrapped up into one .pet Last and most important, thank you and kirk for Fatdog64-600. I really enjoy using.

Thank you Will. I have merged your three pets into one (lxpanel-0.5.9-all.pet) and upload it to the pet repo. It looks cool . I also moved the /root/.config/lxpanel to /usr/share/lxpanel so that it is applicable to all users.

Thank you Mick. I uploaded this to the SFS section in Fatdog's repository here: http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/fatdog/sfs/. Unfortunately Fatdog is still a bit lacking in its SFS management, so it won't be visible from anywhere unless one knows where to find it. _________________ Fatdog64, Slacko and Puppeee user.
