A little customizing, just need to remember to save.... Smile

Actually,the saves are really fast.

Barry,

I have used several Puppies including the latest precise from yourself and the latest slacko. Now I'm running april 7.0.2 live-CD (with 2GB RAM) and these errors are new.

A.
netstat -c -p -a -e -w -u -t -n
netstat: invalid option -- c

netstat -p -a -e -w -u -t -n
netstat: /proc/net/tcp6: No such file or directory
netstat: /proc/net/udp6: No such file or directory
netstat: /proc/net/raw6: No such file or directory

there is IPv4 output (which I have removed) and as I expected no IPv6 output.

B.
hardinfo has no USB info and there's no error in the console that launched it.

C.
xmessage -buttons "will do" -file msg.txt
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion

The message box does appear though.

Thanks

I would like to find out how low the RAM can be for the live-CD.
There are so many PCs out there with 1MB RAM. It would be nice if the live-CD boots on those.


Yes, it will boot (slowly) into 1Gb and is reasonably speedy thereafter; swap partition available on HD, independent video card(ie no shared mem.: 128MbDDR Radeon).
With 768Mb, "no space left on device", KP, non-blocking pool initialized(?), STOP.
896? Loads of error messages but arrives at CLI. Cannot run xorgwizard without 'no space' & 'Seg fault' messages. Very close - maybe a small SW tweek?
Folks with 1Gb and shared mem. could slot in a 128 strip - plenty of that knocking about at low or zero cost. Even the most basic boards have two slots, so depends on whether the 1Gb is a single strip!

Actually, you could put the 'savesession' script into /usr/bin/wmpoweroff and wmreboot, so it will save at every shutdown.

Or rather, it will ask, and you can decline if not want to save.

Hemmm.. savesession on shutdown what if we could ALSO save that single file back to DVD? DID you know that same name files can be saved to END of already burned DVD-R.. and it would be picked as the newer..
If you mount the DVD with a session number you could go get an earlier session. Rolling Eyes

Just tossing this out there.... Twisted Evil

Actually you could also do a delta file between old and new savesession and save just the changes... But thats a bit more coding..

Guys, a question.

There was an earlier report of Pmusic hanging.

My question is, why do we even have Pmusic in April?

Barry, Pmusic is more than just a media player. I use it to batch-edit the tags of audiobook mp3 files so I can see the author and title of the book I'm listening to (sometimes people ask what I'm listening to and I forget.) I haven't found another way to do that, though I didn't seriously look for one after I figured out how easy it is to do with Pmusic. Please, at least keep the latest version of Pmusic in Puppy's Package Manager.

I am also seeing the errors.
Does anyone know if netstat changed? or the kernel changed?

Not sure what netstat -c is for, it's not in any of my netstat lists as a switch, typo maybe?

The others are all for ip6, ?are you sure you have ip6 enabled, I think maybe not, it needs to be enabled at both ends.

Try
Code:
netstat -a -s -p tcp tcpv6 ipv6 -f
, this should list your tcp stats and connections if they exist for both ip4 and ip6 including ports.

it's not errors, "netstat -c" doesn't exist in busybox. And ip-v6 can be added easily. So not a bug.

There is a bug in JWM snapshot 976

It affects mtpaint and mypaint. Settings toolbar window opens
behind the main window. I've sent a bug report to Joe.

When I downloaded and installed stable version 2.2.2 of jwm,
the problems with mtpaint and mypaint disappeared.

Code:

./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

I compile 1040, it still has the bug that you found.

Unfortunately, it has a lot more bugs, breaks our themes.
I posted a bug report:

I have a flash stick that boots on both BIOS and UEFI computers, the latter without needing "legacy boot".

I am using syslinux.

Trying to figure out some peculiarities with the UEFI boot, hope to upload 7.0.3 soon.
