Using Woof Subject description: I need to create a pupplet AV Linux or Dream Studio |
|
Hi ladies and gents.
I'm new to the forums but not really new to puppy. I've been playing with it off and on for the last 4 yrs. I keep distro hopping between debian/Ubuntu based distros and puppy.
I just started reading about Woof and am wondering how it works. ie Does it just pull packages from a distro's report or does it pull the entire distro (kernel, desktop, window manager, etc)?
If you do this with Ubuntu do you end up with a puppy using unity and need to remove it?
Or does Woof automatically replace the distros desktop with jwm?
I'm asking because I need a "studio" puppy with a low latency or real time kernel and have found that ones that already exist are either dead or packed full of outdated apps.
I need current versions of Ardour3, Jammin, jackrack, cinelerra, rackarrack, hydrogen, gimp, etc.
AV Linux is by far the best studio distro for my needs followed by Dream Studio and I would like to make a puppy from them.

Announcer, also known here as l0wtech, etc. here sells similar puppies like your idea.
Maybe you should contact him .... or his other avatars ?

Thank you for the suggestion but I'm not interested in purchasing anything. I'm interested in learning how to do things not just getting something and moving on.

It is not about purchasing, and hopefully not about selling puppies either.
I wanted to say that l0wtech also known as Announcer and maybe some more avatars, could be of some help to you because he made similar puppies you want to.
You might get into touch with him.

Consider building on the work began using Arch linux,
as the basis for a puppy. The user who began the effort
moved on, but produced a nice pup, where you could access
the arch repos, and build packages.
lowtechs Studio1337 is wonderful. The wheel is already invented
AvLinux is huge, so it might not fit in the traditional puppy doghouse,
which is handy for small, focussed productions, that only
require a cd, usbstick, and a box with a little ram to run it in.
If you're great at compiling, recompiling, and starting from scratch,
over and over, and over, as code revelations appear, you'll do well.
Cheers

RyanRide, you might have posted in the wrong section .
But that is common in this forum . You're not the first and not the last .
The Project Sub-Forum would fit best , I think , since it is the start of a Project to probably build a Derivate .
If you search for "woof" in the Howto-Section by Topic , you would probably find threads like
"[HowTo] Build a Custom Puppy with Woof" by Iguleder
"How to Use Woof to Build Lucid Puppy 5.2" by playdayz
"How to build a Puppy with woof2" by oldyeller

another useful project, would be producing pets and sfs setups,
for disciplines, print graphics, video editing, audio production,
online collaboration etc
There are quite a few apps being created, or getting updates,
and that keeps interest high.

Thanks cthisbear and ciento.
I uploaded a custom Ardour 3 .sfs (should work on all versions of Puppy) back in April:

Hi
have a short look for the Swiss NuTyx at http://nutyx.org. Under «construire» (build) at the bottom, right, you will discover a way to really compile from Scratch (downloading sources, not binaries, from the original sites like LFS, or X.org, KDE etc.) all what you want without stress . NuTyx has also an own git.
good luck!

Try jejy69's lxpup-aptget-test.iso |
|
Hi,
Before you try to build your own Pup, try jejy69's lxpup-aptget-test.iso. It can be downloaded from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/checkmatelxde/files/Lxpup_Test_Aptget/
It's based on Ubuntu precise, uses Lxde as its window manager, and as the name says includes aptget, actually synaptic. In addition to "install," It will id and offer to download the desire app and dependencies. I've had reasonable success installing Ubuntu applications into it, and running them compared to just downloading the files and dependencies (the option I mentioned) and then trying to run the same apps in Precise.

I have a monster problem:
I tried to make a Puppy build with Woof, but when trying to build one of certain bases, (based on X, Y or Z) it fails to download tons of files and some packages are impossible to get, even if I Google until I'm blue in the face, arms and legs!
IIRC, /.1download failed to download so many files that unless tons of hosters deleted stuff, ./1download is majorly broken!
