Hi pemasu,

[don570]

I wasn't able to get Imagination 3.0 to work in Exprimo.
I was successful in Precise.

Maybe if it was carefully compiled with the right dependencies
it could work. It needs sox and ffmpeg.

Here it is ...
as the pet i got (i.e. gqview-2.04 from Dejan's dpup45 repo - compiled with gtk+2.24) reported to be compiled with gtk+2.24, and that running on gtk+2.20 could bring risk of fault, i compiled it inside exprimo.
Have fun
Charlie

Hi,
here is a (imho) nice (Qt) database running on exprimo:

Note to Pemasu : What do you think of this right click option?

A very simple script that just uses rpm2cpio which
is in all puppies.

I have included your new version to the next Upup Precise update. To the rox right clicks included in it.

Yeah. My timetable does not enable to update all my versions at the same time.

But dpup exprimo has not been forgotten.

[don570]

A new version of extract_rpm...

I am now using 'exploderpm' rather than 'rpm2cpio'

It gives much better results. I also found that file-roller does a good
job of extracting rpm packages but only Exprimo seems to have it
installed, so I went with exploderpm

Hi,
using forum member gposil's puppy personal database v 0.6b on Exprimo 3.6.2.1:
download here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=42480
I get the following problem:
- selecting in ppdb v0.6b Menu/Custom Databases/Puppy database creator gives a warning box: «TCustomForm.ShowModal impossible»;
- then xerr.lor reports:

[charlie6]

Hi,
in addition to the above post... as ppdb has been created half 2009, i went to install ppdb-0.6b.pet on a "fresh" ...«good old puppy 4.2» (read "pristine" install ):
result: puppybase creator runs OK on puppy-4.2 without error

my question: could one hope getting ppdb running on exprimo, the same way it seems running OK on puppy-4.2 ?

thanks for any answer !
charlie

[pemasu]

Charlie6. I am not sure that the GtkSpinButton error message is the reason of the crash and error message.
If the ppdb would still be developed, I would ask the developer. Next thing. If there is possibility to get source code of ppdb in hands, compiling it in dpup exprimo might help and also there might be possibility to fix the source code.

[charlie6]

Hi pemasu,
thanks for replying!
Developer, forum member gposil, is no longer reachable since 2010 , and his repo as well ... (hope he is doing well...).
So no hope then (except use on puppy4.2)

Wishes to you and your relatives for a
*~*#*@*&* Merry Christmas *~*#*@*&*,
as also for the Puppy Community !

Hi Pemasu,
last edited: SOLVED (i have adapted this post from original modifying and/or deleting the obsolete parts)
to get sqlitebrowser-2.0.0.b1 running on dpup-exprimo-3.6.2.1, have to be installed:
- sqlitebrowser_2.0.0~beta1+ds.1-3_i386.deb from debian repo wheezy (squeeze repo has only version 1.3) here:
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/s/sqlitebrowser/sqlitebrowser_2.0.0~beta1+ds.1-3_i386.deb
+
- libicu42_4.2.1-3_i386.deb from ubuntu repo (not found in debian repo), here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/i386/libicu42/4.2.1-3
(debian repo has only libicu44_4.4.1-8_i386.deb but using version 44, even created a version 42 symlink pointing to version 44 lib, sqlitebrowser reports "undefined symbols" when started from console)
+
- install qt4-4.8.0.pet from pets-dpup-exprimo repo only (only this pet has libQt3support in it !! Qt4-4.8.0.sfs has not...)
(trick: for those who prefer mounting .sfs files instead of install .pet files, just transform the pet into sfs using the right click option «Extract here» and «dir2sfs» to get the relevant sfs archive)
note: before being aware that other qt4-4.8.0.sfs archives from other pemasu's repo do not have libqt3support.so.4.8.0 in them, i got unsuccessfull trials running other versions of qt4 and libqt3support libs (4.6.3, 4.7.x or 4.8.2, even4.8.3, also coming from polarpup-005 - which version is 4.8.0...but compiled on a different kernel version - all resulted in an error message that might report an incompatibility of libqt3support with other Qt4 libs).
- For information: Sqlitebrowsers website
http://sqlitebrowser.sourceforge.net/
Hope this helps
Charlie

I upgraded pupmd5sum.sh to version 1.0

improvements

1) put in 'Saving to disk' Yaf-splash

2) The text file now will handle spaces in file name

Hi,
please consider the latest SQLiteStudio-2.1.0 here:
http://sqlitestudio.one.pl/
to be downloaded here:
http://sqlitestudio.one.pl/files/free/stable/linux32/sqlitestudio-2.1.0.bin
I have downloaded it in /; and launch just by click on it.
result: on a fresh (=pristine) dPup-Exprimo-3.6.2.1 and doing in a console, i get those error messages:

[mini-jaguar]

I just installed this Exprimo, really nice. Even runs a lot of software for Lucid, but not all.
