I tried the Dropbox.sfs and it crashes every second. Crying or Very sad

But I made my second pet, which is the awesome browser Dooble. Smile

Dpup Exprimo 5.X.3.4.2.4 has been uploaded. Which was going to be small bug fix upload, changed to be major multimedia upgrade update. I compiled ffmpeg 0.11.1 (from release day git ie 070712) and then I recompiled multimedia apps against it. http://ffmpeg.org/

The recompiled and other needed applications and libs are:
ffmpeg-070712-git.pet, gecko-mediaplayer-1.0.7a1.pet, gmtk-1.0.7.pet, gnome-mplayer-1.0.7a1.pet, gxine-0.5.907.pet, libvpx-1.1.0-dpup.pet, libx264-125-dpup.pet, vlc-2.0.1-dpup.pet (vlc-mozilla-plugin included), xine-lib-1.2.2.pet

I did also update Fotoxx to the latest which supports gtk-2.0. Bye bye Fotoxx upgrades after this one. Gtk-youtube-viewer-2.0.4, thanks stu90, for reminding, Pupcontrol-2.2, previously noticed missing scripts added. Some new mime associations, thanks Shinobar, Pnethood should be fixed. I added squeeze backports repos ( I needed some newer libs for those compiles), and thought it would be nice to have them in PPM. I also growed the allowed shown repos to 8, just forgot to change the text. It still informs only 5 repo boxes are allowed. Dont believe that. I wont rewoof the build due to that lapsus, lol. Some small fixes I dont remember anymore.
Exprimo repo has been updated with those recompiled apps. Database file has been updated, of course. I hope someone could tell me what petget script should I edit to get exprimo repo shown at first launch. Now it need configure manager manipulation and restart.
I hope you enjoy the multimedia experience with dpup.

Hi pemasu !

Backi. use wmswitch from menu, it is the second from the bottom. Choose e17 and the window manager will be changed.

Secondly. I noticed that guvcview is also ffmpeg version dependent. Newer that 1.5.0 is not anymore supported with gtk-2.0, then starts gtk-3.0 saga. 1.5.0 version does have nowadays deprecated ffmpeg calls. Using compiling error messages I just removed those rows from source code files, lol.
It compiled after that ok, and I got it showing my ugly face. I should shave. It is due to sick leave, lol.
Anyway....here is the recompiled, source hacked version to test. I would like to get feedback does it show ugly faces more....

Hi pemasu,

As per squeeze-5.X.3.4.3 I am unable to create a save file with the latest release. On a positive note I am able to use the save file from 5.X.3.4.2.2 and all is working great.

Thanks for all your work on this fine puppy.

*Downloading the newest*

Errr....can someone please tell me if they've also had that crashing problem with dropbox?

Heh. I uploaded wrong version. There isnt SCSI suffix in the iso. I did upload my test-plaything version. I upload the right version asap ie immediately. Thank you Radky and Backi.

Also. If the savefile not creating still happens, could you try Shinobars Pupsaveconfig pet ....install it before you shutdown and launch it from the menu > setup.

I am truly sorry of my misupload. I just didnt remember I had my test iso in sandbox3 folder also.

Thanks for telling us!

I was so close to actually installing it. Confused

Dpup Exprimo 5.X.3.4.2.4 has been reuploaded. Check that your version has been named like squeeze-5.X.3.4.2.4-SCSI.iso ....you need to have SCSI suffix in the name. Otherwise you downloaded my early plaything with what I mainly checked that woof builds the version and it boots.

No...dont use the generic version. It does not have wmreboot and wmpoweroff fix for e17. They needs killall enlightenment row. ....If you happen to use e17.

Use the attached pet.

5.X.3.4.2.4 is working well on this Intel dual-core box. No problem with savefile on first shutdown.
