Thanks for the link, Billtoo. Do you also have it as a pet? I'd like to "embed" deadbeef into Slacko and then remaster.

Anikin,
In the Slackware 14.0 Slacko Puppies, Deadbeef will only compile without ffmpeg support because of the more recent ffmpeg version (unless someone can point to a suitable patch). A lot of the functionality is still there via all the other plugins, but this is the main reason why I never posted a .pet for the latest Slackos. I believe you may also need to include libiconv (which you didn't in 5.3.3) but don't recall for certain. Are you looking for a .pet package with DEV files included?

Hi Mick
Looking really good - have so far tested Frisbee, Samba, Chromium and LibreOffice and all work as expected.
I've had a tiny problem with Firefox - a Clear List button on the downloads screen that is greyed out and doesn't work - see screenie.
I also tried to upgrade my desktop's 5.4 frugal install savefile without success - I know you recommend a clean install because of the kmod module changes but the lack of an upgrade path when you've invested a lot of effort in the previous version (and probably forgotten some of the changes you've made) is a bit of problem which should maybe be highlighted in the release notes?
Cheers
peebee

Slacko 5.5 (k3.2.33) Subject description: nvidia and vbox |
|
I downloaded and installed slacko 5.5 (k3.2.33). Looks beautiful and stable - and fast.
I did have some fun, however, with nvidia and VirtualBox.
I booted with nouveau.modeset=0, but both nouveau and vesa were loaded. report-video reported that nouveau was in charge xorg.conf voted for vesa. In any case, glxgears reported 35 fps with the FX5200 card.
The nvidia_legacy pet in the PPM was easily installed with dramatic increase in fps, but my Opera 12.14 standalone did not display correctly. The menu bar and a rectangle in the upper left corner of the screen showed squiggly lines instead of text. I have never seen this effect before with any number of puppies.
The simplest solution (although not the first tried) once again turned out to be the best. I located and installed the kernel sources and the OEM nvidia 173.14.36 run file. Problem solved. Opera once again performs.
vbox also presented a challenge. Once more, The Asterix came to the rescue, see: http://www.silverdollarsolutions.com/PuppyLinux/asterisk/VirtualBox/4.2.6/packages_guide.html.
The pet required is virtualbox-4.2.6-x86_src.install.pet, you will find it at the bottom of the page. Please note that it requires that the devx and kernel sources be installed before hand.
All in all - a really super pup!

Repaired Menus, Back to Normal |
|
I’ve got the menus back to working normally, by changing out the libgnome-menu.so.2.0.2 for the one out of Precise 5.4.3 in /usr/lib (the lib out of Precise is a little larger). Now the menus work correctly with the /etc/xdg/menus configuration files there.
In order to get xcompmgr in /usr/bin working, I had to drop back to an older one out of Slacko 5.3.3.

see examples of live cd, full install and remaster. Works great in live cd and full install - problem exists on remaster. I can get it to work after I boot the remastered copy by right clicking speaker icon in tray and checking the box beside master and changing the color from red to yellow. I would like for it to work at bootup of remastered cd like the live cd and full install

Hi majorfoo,
My point was, that typing "alsamixer" in the terminal would give you *direct* access to sound settings, and perhaps you can "catch" it there.

Hi OscarTalks,
If it plays flac and wav, I'll be fine with it. DEV files are not needed.
Thank you.

Anikin,
I was having a tinker with DeaDBeeF and can upload a compile from source if you want but as I said it won't have ffmpeg support. In Precise, Pemasu came up with a way of avoiding the libiconv dependency involving juggling the headers, but either the method doesn't work in Slacko or I have forgotten exactly how we did it at the time so I would have to include the lib in the package which is not a major problem.
As a suggestion you might like to take a look at the static build version which (I believe) is a way of having DeaDBeeF with full functionality in Slacko 5.5

Hi!
And thank you for the work with Puppy!
I did try the 5.5 in this : http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-42771
My newest P4 computer. 2.4GHz. A very nice Bios and so on. Seems to be a good one. Look for MODEL : 8307-73G of IBM Net Vista 8307 in that list.
But. Error Fail etc.. , it does boots up fine from CD. but can not start X grafic. Some 3-4 hours of probes and change things in xorgwizard ands so on, I have no idea what to do now..
PuppyPrecise5.4 did work yesterday before I erased that CD
So it is possible. At least before now, as I now also have tried with a reset of bios to defalult settings.. to get Slacko55 Xwin to start. But no luck.
In the bios it says "Brookdale-G" grafic chip.
At the homapage (Lenevo nowdays) it says "
Integrated Intel 845G (2D/3D graphics)
15-pin VGA output on planar
Intel Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT)
AGP 4x equivalent speeds
For models without a separate video card, memory supports both system and video.
640 x 480, 16M colors (60, 72, 75, 85, 100, 120 Hz)
800 x 600, 16M colors (60, 72, 75, 85, 100, 120 Hz)
1024 x 768, 16M colors (60, 70, 75, 85, 100,120 Hz)
1152 x 864, 16M colors (60, 70, 75, 85,100 Hz)
1280 x 1024, 16M colors (60, 75, 85, 100 Hz)
1600 x 1200, 16M colors (60 Hz)
1920 x 1440, 64K colors (60, 75 Hz)
2048 x 1536, 64K colors (60Hz)"

These Brookdale graphics chips are a problem. When your CD boots up, there is an initial 5-second pause. Type
Code: | puppy i915.modeset=0 |
Does that help? Mick will know better than me how to fix this.

On Pentium machines with earlier graphics chips I use
Wary 5.5.
The earlier kernel and ability to choose i810 module
during setup often helps.

Hey Mick, nice work on slacko.
Ethernet automatically working, video card recognized, although I use lower res then 1280x1024 automatically detected, I like that these new puppies come with dri built in although I guess my video card works better with some older pups but I don't have any lag for regular apps so far on 5.5.
