FFConvert appears to be broken for me.
Unable to change the compression ratio of mp3's as in previous versions of FFC..


I think Precise 5.4.3 has FFConvert 1.3.
The latest is 1.3.1, there is also an older "stable" version.

Would you mind going here and install the latest, if no good try the older stable version:

I installed the latest version of FFConvert 1.3.1 and I am now able to change the compression ratio of mp3's.

Thank you Smile

Works for me. Acceleration does change, and no error messages.

Nice catch, MHHP. That's it!

Attached is a modified version of pupx (based on the current pupx-0.3.pet in the noarch repository) that should work.

I also made some changes to allow commas as decimal points in the keyboard delay value, and the screen-saver delay and cycle values. Note that only integers are accepted by xset, so there is no point in using a decimal point for those values, but just in case a user tries to use one, pupx rounds the value down so that xset will be passed an acceptable value and not fail. I haven't changed that -- I just changed it to allow commas to be used in addition to periods, which were already supported.

For the combo box lists for the mouse acceleration & threshold values, pupx now uses the decimal point character of the current locale. But for the other values, pupx now accepts either a period or a comma, no matter what the current locale is. That way if a user has become used to the fact that pupx always wanted a period for a decimal point, the period won't suddenly stop working. And a look at the couple of hundred locals supported by Puppy, I found no locale that used anything other than a period or a comma for a non-monetary decimal point, so there should be no surprises there.

can the chat icon on the desktop be a link to chatzilla instead of ayttm.

i help out on puppychat, and trying to direct people to relevant information on the forum is infuriating if they are using ayttm, as ayttm still crashes on links and right clicking.

cheers

Barry,
Thanks for taking the frisbee infrastructure packages and pdiag.
Barry, in his blog, wrote:
Pdiag was developed while integrating Frisbee into Puppy, but I don't know if there is one "home" page that describes Pdiag.
Its --help option explains it.
    # pdiag --help

    Usage: pdiag [option]

    --help This small usage guide
    --wpa Include WPA encryption data if user allows

    Default action is to collect configuration, status and log files into a
    compressed archive (tarball) named such as pdiag-20130209.tar.gz
    in your root or home directory.
    That file can be submitted to Puppy developers for analysis and possible problem
    resolution.

    Additional diagnostic data can be collected by a script segment (no #!/bin/sh)
    named beginning with "pdiag-" in /usr/lib/pdiag/, using $DIAGSUBDIR as the
    output directory.
    To facilitate debugging and troubleshooting, anything logged to /tmp/debug.log
    will be included in the tarball.
    #

A note about the updated network_tray packages, which are identical: The "2.6" package is intended as a default replacement for 2.5 if it is to be made the official puppy version. If it is to be left as a developer's alternative to the official version, then the "2.5-frisbee" package name seems more appropriate.

Hello puppy friends.


Nice Puppy

Retropup needs a new java.
I checked ppm. There are many choices but they all look too old. Others I
don't understand. I tried one and it had over 100 dependancies. I was afraid to
load it.

I did not see an sfs for it.


Can someone help me figure out what to load?

Pete

Hi everyone, I found another debdb2pupdb bug. It's in 5.4.3, I have to check yet in the 5.5beta.
Some Ubuntu packages have weird dependencies like "udev(>=", "libx11-6(>>" and so on. The root cause is that in the Ubuntu package databases, in the package dependency data, sometimes the dependent package name and version requirement has no space between them.

To check which packages are affected, run this command:
Code:

grep -e "|+.*(.*|" ~/.packages/Packages-ubuntu-*

Edit: Latest Woof as of 21th Feb 2013 also has this bug.
