Nevermind the module didn't load, actually the only modules loaded are:

Code:
fuse
aufs
squashfs


Why so?


i ran into that too when i switched kernels...i remedied it by using a save file. after rebooting into the save file...the default modules loaded.

Scooby,
Try removing /run/dbus/pid that file should be there only if dbus-daemon is already running,
Did you replace PIDFILE in /etc/init.d/messagebus? After that try /etc/init.d/messagebus start
and /etc/init.d/messagebus stop, for me it's working.
[



I use this
PIDFILE=/run/dbus/pid

This is a sequential list of commands in terminal after a fresh restart
What lines did you erase in .xinitrc?

Scooby Nice colors man Laughing And yes messagebus start and stop work for you, something else must be problem.
I installed batti to see what will happen and like you also got error only different:
Code:
[root@archpup ~]# batti
 
Neither UPower nor DeviceKit.Power could be initialized!
This can have multiple reasons.
Here is the error for UPower:

    org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 1

And this is the error for DeviceKit.Power:

    org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.DeviceKit.Power was not provided by any .service files

So it's just one more annoying gtk/python/ application.
If you want my suggestion try qbat from AUR (package is only 200 KB). If you don't want to compile let me know, and I will upload package for you later.

Scooby,

puppy default battery monitor appears to work just fine. i pulled it right out of precise's /root/Startup folder. if you want to try it just delete the .gz on the end. you might also have to first run the command:

Code:
chmod +x /path/to/powerapplet_tray
powerapplet_tray.gz
Description 
gz

 Download 
Filename  powerapplet_tray.gz 
Filesize  11.82 KB 
Downloaded  22 Time(s)

Agreed lets forget it!

I tested powerapplet_tray

Code:
/powerapplet_tray: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


My head is kind a squared from hacking now so have to leave i for now

I am trying to create a puppy iso

[20:48 root@archpup tmp] > mkisofs -D -R -o /mnt/sdb1/_ISO/Linux/AUTO/ArchPup-edited.iso -b /tmp/ArchPup/isolinux.bin -c /tmp/ArchPup/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table /tmp/ArchPup/
call to search_tree_file with an absolute path, stripping
initial path separator. Hope this was intended...
genisoimage: Uh oh, I cant find the boot catalog directory '/tmp/THINSlacko-5.3.3t-SCSI'!


What is boot catalog, I thought it was were I have the files to go into ISO resides.

Any input into making ISO?

tip i learned from mavrothal:

Code:
ln -s /usr/lib/libpng15.so.15.13.0 /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0


puppy's battery monitor should run after that.

i use isomaster and edit an already working iso...deleting the files out that i don't want, and replacing them with the ones that i do. and saving as a new iso.

Code:
pacman -S isomaster

Looking at Scooby's quest for a battery monitor and realizing that (old and new) laptops are both widespread and usually "single user" machines (ie easier to run single user OSs or as root), I would suggest to include a battery monitor tray app (rather than conky module) in 132.
If not the puppy powerapplet then some other small arch app with minimal dependencies.

From Barry's blog: http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=01837
Quote:
powerapplet_tray 2.3
There have been a couple of reports of my battery tray applet 'powerapplet_tray' not working.

I had expected that the path to examine would be /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/ or /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1, however the base directory can have other names. Forum member 'peebee' has reported this:

/proc/acpi/battery/C23B/

I have fixed this and bumped the version number to 2.3. Testers are welcome.

Note that it uses the new yaf-splash (gtkdialog-splash) to put up an info box when clicked on. If you want it to work with the old yaf-splash, you will need to modify the source.

PET here (compiled in Wary, with GTK 2.20.1):

My view is that BIG is just foot-shooting. There are already plenty of BIG Puppies. There are lots of faults and shortcomings with ArchPup; its only redeeming feature at present is small and fast. BIG is for folks who are too blinkered at best, idle at worst, to achieve K.I.S.S. Small will always remain beautiful. E = mc^2 , also think Schrodinger, Dirac and Heisenberg (can't seem to transpose their equations into this box, but, as you'll already know, they are small!). Writing in assembler would earn more Brownie points and be a more worthy contribution to humanity.

Here are the latest changes in ArchPup:
HARDWARECLOCK="UTC" added to /etc/rc.conf
new deamon script /etc/init.d/hwclock with this content
Code:
#!/bin/sh
. /etc/rc.conf

case $HARDWARECLOCK in
   UTC) HWCLOCK_PARAMS="--utc";;
   localtime) HWCLOCK_PARAMS="--localtime";;
   *) HWCLOCK_PARAMS="";;
esac

case "$1" in
   stop)
      hwclock --adjust $HWCLOCK_PARAMS
      hwclock --systohc
      ;;
esac

What will this thing do - Just set hardware clock to user selected "UTC" or "localtime", and sync
system time to hardware clock on system reboot. Also I removed about 20 or more useless
files from /etc, see there https://bitbucket.org/simargl/archpup if you are interested.
What's your opinion. Is this OK?

For powerapplet I would suggest that someone make PKGBUILD and upload it to AUR,
so everyone can use it. Personally I don't need battery monitor as I don't have a laptop,
but for others adding it to AUR seems like good idea.

@Sage: Would you be so kind and explain with some more details what are "lots of faults and
shortcomings with ArchPup". Thanks.

Are you sure that all kind of connections, firewalls and protocols will work without /etc/dhcpcd.conf, protocols and services?

But do you intend to provide a battery monitor with 132, regardless if powerapplet_tray will be in AUR or not?
