...if it doesn't have "amd64", that is the cause of the problem.

cheers ...fixed

Hello 666philb

I have installed MPV 0.8.3 and it works normally with no skipped frames. So it looks like something is wrong with VLC 2.2.1

VLC gives a lot of " frame too late to display" errors even when there is only 55% cpu load.

In Fatdog all of the media players like: VLC 2.1.5, MPV, GXINE behave alike when doing H.264 + YADIF 2x in software, without any problem.

There were only seven dependencies needed for MPV 0.8.3 with Tahr64. I already had the amd64 Trusty debs that I used when I installed MPV on Fatdog, which made the test very quick. I didn't need to use the package manager.

avconv in kdenlive

Sure, but Debian is officially migrating from avconv to ffmpeg, why not using the "official" builds?

musique & amarok need phonon-backend-gstreamer plus some gstreamer1.0 plugins .... maybe the good and bad plugins

OK How did you know? no warning, good guess?

Can't run Rythmbox either:

Seems to run great.

I too need 32 bit compatibility though, and the way to do it with Ubuntu doesn't seem to work.

Did the steps in the above and I get the following.

I'll switch back to the vlc from the ppm for the next build see if that's any better

if you have opus & m4b files handy can you right click on them and choose 'set run action' and post the info in the picture below.

rhythmbox ...yes i know about that error and it's fixed in next iso thanks to iguleder
you should be able to fix it by re-installing glib from the PPM and then running

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/

.wma playing fine for me

hi sketchman,

i'll be looking into 32bit compatibility next release ... i've got a 32bit enabled kernel and some pointers from jamesbond

[sketchman]

Sweet. That would be the icing on the cake.

You're doing great work with you pups.

[666philb]

This is not or ever was in woof!
Where is it coming from in Tahr-6.0.x ?

The installer in Tahr-6.0.x.
It calls up this web page:
http://puppylinux.com/install.htm

No. What I'm asking is where the files /usr/share/doc/installation.htm and /usr/share/doc/puppy.css that are present in the 32bit TahrPup-6.0.x are coming from?
There are not in woof, they are not in z_hacks So how did they make it into Puppy Tahr 6.0.2?

puppy.css is in slacko-5.9.3 ....either it used to be in woof once or i pinched it from 01micko

EDIT: it was in woof ....here's where it gets lost https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/pull/517

[01micko]

It was in woof.

It got changed when someone else changed the docs. I can't remember who off hand but they were a web dev, I am not.

EDIT: I just changed it to use ./manual.css. Looks fine. I'll commit to woof.

Try it yourself.

[mavrothal]

EDIT: it was in woof ....here's where it gets lost https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/pull/517

Actually this is the commit and it does changes the css tp puppy.css. But this commit does NOT delete /usr/share/doc/installation.htm. I actually checked the git log of woof-CE for that file and it was never in woof-CE

Regarding the Tahr version of installation.htm, indeed all you need is to change the css to puppy.css. But where is the original to change it there?...

[01micko]

The /usr/share/doc/installation.htm thing was _supposed_ to be commited when I committed the improved puppy installer but I must have missed it

Fixed anyway by now.

[01micko]

Aha!

@666philb

I have finally found my jwmrc fixup script! It was part of my petbuilds all along, however it doesn't execute in woof through the pinstall.sh. However, I can bung one line into 3builddistro and have it it execute if it exists in chroot. (No, won't do that, have it called from a pinstall.sh instead, sample with output below -from latest woof-ce)

here it is: (edited) name it fixjwmrc and it must be in usr/local/nin of the jwm package.

Be careful doing copy/paste from the forum as it adds a space to line ends that breaks scripts!

If you did not get 'End of pinstall.sh' message above, then
it aborted before completion. Press ENTER or CTRL-C: 

Now, when you build jwm from source then in it there is the jwm*.xslt (in the case of jwm-2.3.2 its called jwm-2.3.xslt). If you copy that into etc of the package the script will run when executed.

I have now made the script compliant for stable and snapshot versions of JWM.

tahrpup has a problem (actually it is ubuntu problem) - its librsvg2-2 cannot render SVG images with xlink:href in it.

My fix: use an older version of librsvg2-2 (version 2.34) from either quantal or precise.

[gcmartin]

Anyone else have problem using the GetJAVA utility in the Menu.

After download, I lead the installation to install to RAM. It recommends to save the SFS in /tmp. Then this error occurs following that recommendation.

Update: targeting it to a permanent partition does not steer to error.

[mavrothal]

After download, I lead the installation to install to RAM. It recommends to save the SFS in /tmp. Then this error occurs following that recommendation.

This is a bug in sfs_load when it tries to install an sfs saved in /tmp (in RAM) and not specific to this puplet or the given SFS.
Better report in the sfs_load thread.

Latter: Here is a work around

[bigpup]

01micko and 666philb,

Because I am using the Tahr_kernel.4.1.7.tar.xz that 01micko made.
I am not sure if you want me to report any problems I may have.

You tell me?

hi bigpup,

yes definitely report.... the kernel in tahrpup64 isn't set yet, I've just used the 3.14 as it boots to a desktop for me where as 4* ones don't. i would like to go with the latest 4* kernel and will look into missing firmware as 01micko suggested.

Update:
This kernel seems to be working OK for me.
Definitely need it for my Geforce GTX 960 graphics card support.

thanks to jamesbond we now have 32bit apps running in tahrpup64

skypes working, wine works running 32bit apps, and 32bit steam works.
the picture has steam (32bit) running a 64bit game. this the first time i've had this game running on a puppy
