Cups broken in pae 5.4.91 SOLVED Subject description: SOLVED |
|
OK I have reloaded all the software and Cups is still working.
On the Toshiba Satellite A205.
I started the Precise Puppy 5.4.91 nopae without savefile.
Menu==>System==>CUPS manage printing WORKS
I defined my HP PhotoSmart 5200
Then I created the 2 GB save file.
Rebooted twice checking the CUPS manage printing each time.
Then Added .sfs for libreOffice 3.5.4_en_US.sfs
Rebooted twice checking the CUPS manage printing each time
I reloaded all the software listed at the top of page 9 in this post
one at a time checking CUPS before and after rebooting.
I loaded firefox-18.0.2 last and cups continues to work.
I do not know what caused the problem. This is my first use of ext4 savefile but maybe it was a bad block in a critical spot.
CUPS continues to work.
Thank for your help!!!
-Bruce.

It seems in cupsd.conf, some things are not defined, like /var/log/cups/ for logs, /usr/share/cups/ for data, /etc/cups/ssl/ and certificate, also ssl port, the temp dir , SystemGroup can be root,lp ? .

frisbee internationalization corrections |
|
Barry,
I see that I forgot to remove from my frisbee-1.0 package the dependency on wag_profiles. Can you remove it from the 20130213 package added to the repo? Or, I have re-uploaded my copy but without the .pot file and without the dependency in the pet_specs file. You could take it from there:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=684092#684092
Thank you for accepting it and network_tray-2.6.
Richard
EDIT: I see there are 2 minor issues with the display by frisbee. So, expect an update when I resolve them.
EDIT 2/20/2013 later in the day: I have corrected the above problems and uploaded the new version at the link above, as frisbee-1.0-20130220.

Hi Barry,
The output of dmesg will inevitably show a couple instances of this obtrusive line:
Code: | ACPI: Deprecated procfs I/F for battery is loaded, please retry with CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS_POWER cleared |
Is it possible to get rid of it in your compile configuration?
More details: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/25845
In your blog, you mentioned an alternative build with kernel 3.8 as a possible move. Can you please, consider making it a Bare Bones build?
Thank you for all your hard work.

But, our 'powerapplet_tray' battery status applet needs /proc/acpi/battery -- will disabling that option remove that?

JFYI - hardinfo report for Precise 5.4.92 (Precise 5.5 beta)
All seems extremely good to this average user.
SeaMonkey 2.15.2 seems fast to load and overall resource usage seems low.
Luvly Puppy - many thanks.

Fresh manual frugal install to Fat32 USB2 stick with ext4 save & syslinux 4.04 boot.
Initial boot to desktop with working sound,wired ethernet and Nouveau driver at desired
1920x1080 resolution. The following pets were installed and tested:
PupControl-2.3|PupControl panel
tempiconsvg-0.16-i486|tray temperature monitor
nvidia-glx-304.43-precise-k3.2.29|NVIDIA Accelerated Linux Graphics Driver
chromium-25.0.1323.1-i686-1sl|Browse the Web
flashplayer11-11.2.202.270|Adobe Flash Player 11 browser plugin and Preferences. Note, this may not work on older PCs, use instead an earlier 11.x or even 10.x
PupSnap-1.8_Scrot-0.8_32Bit|PupSnap screen capture
No problems indicated in any of the logs and this version appears rock solid.
Report-video now working correctly with DVB-t capture & Nvidia graphics card listed.
Ethernet connection persists across re-boots.

Hi Barry,
My research results are conflicting and ambiguous. Upstream says it should be removed. A debian developer seconds that view. Ubuntu seems to have a view of their own. That's why I've asked you. So, your explanation would be much appreciated. But please, don't take this as something urgent. It is not.
Quote: | From Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt:
What: CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS_POWER
When: 2.6.39
Why: sysfs I/F for ACPI power devices, including AC and Battery, has been working in upstream kernel since 2.6.24, Sep 2007. In 2.6.37, we make the sysfs I/F always built in and this option disabled by default. Remove this option and the ACPI power procfs interface in 2.6.39.
Who: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> |
see more here:https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/654021/
Quote: | For backwards compatibility, this option allows deprecated power /proc/acpi/ folders to exist, even when they have been replaced by functions in /sys. The deprecated folders (and their replacements) include: /proc/acpi/battery/* (/sys/class/power_supply/*) /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/* (sys/class/power_supply/*) This option has no effect on /proc/acpi/ folders and functions, which do not yet exist in /sys
Say N to delete power /proc/acpi/ folders that have moved to /sys/
http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/ACPI_PROCFS_POWER.html |
Quote: | ACPI: Deprecated procfs I/F for battery is loaded...
This is a harmless notification that the old, backwards-compatible /proc/acpi/... interface is also present, along with the new sysfs interface.
If you think that your manufacturer-specific kernel modules (e.g. sony-laptop, etc.) are somehow mis-handling the legacy /proc/acpi interface, you can try disabling it, but the only way to do so is to build a custom kernel with the ACPI_PROCFS_POWER option disabled.
Scroll down to the end for the complete description from the kernel docs.
Removing this may have some minor side effects, e.g. the powertop utility won't fully work.
http://askubuntu.com/questions/149028/is-an-acpi-gpe-storm-normal-in-an-ubuntu-session |
And what about the other (more important) question in my post, regarding an alternative build?

hi linuxcbon,
puppy has it's main perl in the DEVX... install the devx and all your bugs work, apart from md5pass which requires some extra modules.... Code: | cpan ExtUtils::MakeMaker
cpan Crypt::PasswdMD5

5492 soars like Jonathon Livingston Seagull. I like the symbolism
But I'm confused by the kernel switches???
31 second startup time to gui on a old p4 tower, and only 44.4 meg
(including Conky) used at idle. This with a fresh frugal install.
I plan to run this version on other machines today. No problems
so far. It's a bit annoying to wipe out the floppy icon by accidentally
clicking on it. Newbies won't know to restart x. I think little things
like this should be fixed before 5.5 final.

I agree.
Or at least put a scrollbar in the JWM theme chooser, so that having many themes won't expand the GUI from roof to floor -- at times I think the Exit button will reach China. The same happens in the Icon Set Chooser GUI, a scrollbar for that one would be great, too.  |
The Simple Network Setup script could really use a scrollbar, when using it in areas with many routers the list goes below the taskbar and the buttons, and passphrase input field are not visible.
