LxPupSc: Woof-CE, Slackware-Current, LXDE build 13-Jun-2020 Subject description: Pups with the LXDE desktop built using Slackware-Current & Slacko-14.2 components |
|
Latest 20.06 32-bit version is here
LxPupSc64 (the 64-bit version) has its own forum thread
PLEASE NOTE: ONLY FRUGAL INSTALLS ARE RECOMMENDED FOR LXPUPSC & A 64-BIT CAPABLE CPU IS REQUIRED
Some key features:
- a 32-bit woof-ce "testing" branch build using a combination of Slackware Current and latest Slacko-14.2 components + LXDE components from various places
- kernel 5.7.2 64-bit
- built-in web browser is Light-Firefox-48.0 in adrv
- alternative browsers - Chromium, Firefox, Palemoon, Seamonkey available by download
- LXDE desktop
- firmware in fdrv
- fall-back optional xorg in ydrv
- no additional non-kernel drivers (i.e. no wl, ndiswrapper)
see patches and problems in next post
Enjoy - feedback welcomed
Cheers peebee

Updates and Patches etc |

13-Jun-2020
Delta to 20.06+?
ISO md5 = 721a20f910d237f391a5d3298d766444 LxPupSc-20.06+0-T-k64.iso
Delta must be applied to: 721a20f910d237f391a5d3298d766444 LxPupSc-20.06+0-T-k64.iso
Updates are cumulative - only the most recent needs to be applied.
Due to LxPupSc being a 32-bit build using a 64-bit kernel it should be noted:
- kernel drivers have to be compiled on a 64-bit system
- packaged drivers may need a mix of 32-bit utilities with a 64-bit driver (e.g. proprietary nvidia)
- some websites may assume a full 64-bit system and try to download a 64-bit app - extra digging to find the 32-bit app will be needed (e.g. Mozilla)
But the 64-bit kernel means that 64-bit apps can be run if the
64-bit-compatibility sfs is installed.
Woof-CE build notes:
LxPup cannot be built directly from woof-ce because the config files are not in woof-distro - they are in the LxPupSc repo and are manually copied into woof-distro before merge2out is run....
There are other config files which are not in woof-ce at all (_00build.conf and /support/rootfs-packages.conf) which have to be copied before 3builddistro-Z is run....
Once the config files are all correct, woof-ce 3builddistro-Z runs without any changes although there is LxPup specific configuration code in _00build.conf EXTRA_COMMANDS="
This includes code that copies 3 .sfs (adrv, fdrv, ydrv) and a README into /sandbox3/build from /sandbox3 so that the iso includes these files....
Also includes code to replace the DISTRO_COMPAT_REPOS and DISTRO_PET_REPOS used for building with more restricted "user" versions.

It is - Sourceforge shows the md5 - click the small i symbol

Used this distro on the Intel-based all-in-one touch desktop PC. No issues to report from a pristine boot via DVD.
NETWORK is stable; desktop is stable; system responds rapidly; RAM use is typically for PAE PUPs of this calibre. Code: | # uname -a
Linux LxPup32-AIOtouch 4.2.5-EmSee-32-pae #1 SMP Mon Nov 2 10:21:44 GMT 2015 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) CPU G2020 @ 2.90GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
# samba -V
Version 4.1.20
# free
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 4009196 338296 2977020 336100 693880 3291224
Swap: 8397820 0 8397820 |
Only request for this PC's use is an OOTB touch ability similar to Lighthouse64/Just-Ligthhouse/FATDOG7. (I know Mick and others are reviewing an implementation. Maybe you might know its status.)
System is very responsive. SAMBA resource sharing is very quick, as seen by LAN PCs!
Any specifics, please request.

LiveCD test of LxPupSc-15.11.00-pae.iso, md5 verified as correct
Dell Dimension 8300
3GB ram, Pentium 4 2.8 GHz
Nvidia Geforce FX 5200
wired ethernet

Booted up from LiveCD to desktop with no problems. Response seems generally similar to LXLE which I have had installed on this machine for about a year now. LxPupSc is perhaps a bit faster.
Firefox ran OK, Youtube videos ran OK -- I did not install Flash.
Other apps given cursory test that ran OK:
Pmusic, Leafpad, Gpicview, Geany, Abiword, mtPaint
Could not get Mplayer to work on either MP3 or MP4 files:
Code: | # ldd /usr/bin/mplayer | grep found
libcdio_cdda.so.1 => not found
libcdio_paranoia.so.1 => not found
libopenal.so.1 => not found |
and there was this from /var/log/messages:
Code: | Nov 5 11:17:28 puppypc5791 user.info kernel: gnome-mplayer[29382]: segfault at b ip b6b80502 sp bfa05180 error 4 in libglib-2.0.so.0.4600.1[b6b1a000+13f000] |

@6502coder Many thanks for the test and report. Also @gcmartin
Looks like mplayer is the next candidate for a rebuild under slackocurrent.....see next post
Cheers
