@trikly

I look forward to testing your new apulse pet(s). Will separate 64 and 32
bit versions be necessary?

Hello trlkly,

I think it is good for us to have as many people as possible posting .pet packages so go ahead and post yours.

The storage repos kindly provided by smokey01 are well-established in Puppy circles and used by a number of enthusiasts. Senior developers decide what goes in the ibiblio repos which appear in the package manager. Otherwise you do have to browse the forum a bit to find stuff sometimes.

I am not an official provider of Puppy packages, just an enthusiast who likes to learn by experimenting and I upload some things to invite comment and in case they are of use to anyone. Everything should be treated as "for testing purposes".

From time to time I will upload updates of packages (EDIT:- now updated to release 0.1.10). The apulse 0.1.8 was released and built not long ago and a few people found it worked for them. The issue with apulse is that it can be installed as an overwrite (in /usr/lib) in which case the apulse wrapper is not needed, or you can install it somewhere else to avoid conflicts, but then the user has to launch via the wrapper.

As far as I know, standard official Puppy does not have the pulseaudio package and does not have any included programs which use it, but users may install pulseaudio or other programs which might drag it in as a dependency. Puppy does have the pulse libraries though as these are often needed as runtime dependency shared libs. The apulse thing is a workaround which sets up a re-direct to alsa, so there is no "catch-all" and users have to consider what is best for them.

Tahrpup 6.0.6

#1684 Post by TIW »

Hi.
Having swapped Precise-pup for Tahrpup I found I can’t access my mobile phone’s picture file anymore. I am sure it is a driver problem. The question is which driver is missing. As you can see from the picture below Tahrpup actually recognizes the camera, Tahrpup even opens the folder in question but fails to show those pictures inside.
As I already mentioned I do not have that problem with Precise 5.7.1. Has anybody got an idea how to fix that problem ? Thank you for your help.

If you use a pin number to sign into your phone,it has to be in the unlocked state to be able to see the photos inside the directory.

Lumina 959

#1688 Post by TIW »

Hi everybody.
I think I narrowed the problem down a bit.
Maybe somebody can enlighten me here.

Having problems using pupcamera I wonder why the pictures on my windows phone Lumina 950
can be seen with no problems using Precise 5.7.1 but I am unable to see those using Tahrpup 6.0.5

Tahrpup 6.0.5 ( pupcamera )
Those are the files generated using pupcamera

/tmp/pupcamera_ports
/usr/sbin/pupcamera
/usr/share/applications.in/pupcamera.desktop
/usr/share/applications/pupcamera.desktop
/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/pupcamera.mo


Precise 5.7.1 ( pupcamera )
Those are the files generated using pupcamera

/tmp/pupcamera_dlg
/tmp/pupcamera_ports
/usr/sbin/pupcamera
/usr/share/applications/pupcamera.desktop

The difference seems to be the file

/tmp/pupcamera_dlg

which is missing in Tahrpup 6.0.5

What generates this file ?
Is this file responsible for not assessing my pictures in Tahrpup ?

Thanks for your help.

OscarTalks has provided both 32 and 64 bit apulse pets:

It would be nice if apulse is not installed since other browsers are
negatively affected. It should activate before Firefox is invoked and
deactivate when FF exits in some automatic fashion.

Actually, the latest version of palemoon is quite good, and I'm now
ready to abandon FF for the time being since I don't like chrome and
its derivatives. It's disgusting that the FF developers said "screw you"
to some Linux distros and left us searching for alternatives.

Apulse is such a huge amount of un-needed junk. Another Hardware abstraction layer. If someone thought they needed a better sound i/o why aren't they smart enough to replace alsa rather then sit more bloat on top of it? I was a firefox user forever but Its being updated almost as often as Windows. I went to Linux and Firefox to avoid needing to waste hours of time downloading patches and fixes. Anyway long story made short I've been trying to get used to Opera but I admit I never gave palemoon a chance. I always had some fear it was more open to being hacked (For what reason I don't remember) Anyway - I'm glad I'm not the only one done with FF.

Oh! Don't you find it interesting that Microsoft eliminated support for alsa in Skype? Thats when I decided to ditch Skype. When Microsoft bought the company I was fairly sure it would be a screwed up mess soon enough.

Sudden Rash of stuff running in the background

#1690 Post by James186282 »

This is probably not related to Tharpup because I never saw all this "Stuff" when I installed it but I was having some really weird system slowdowns that I've been thinking were just running too many programs at once or had too many browser tabs.

I ran HTOP and nearly had a heart attack. With nothing other then the system running I was used to a page of things and I knew what they were for the most part but oh my gosh. Look at all this garbage running in the background.

I'm sorry if there is the odd routine in the list that everyone knows is supposed to be running but what is all the rest of this? I've Googled a few and the limited comments are "What is this" followed by no answer. Linus T even posted something about one of these asking wtf. I hope its just some program I installed (That I can uninstall) otherwise I'm concerned my machine is another BOT.

Btw I tried SIGTERMing and KILL and the stuff I tried it on ignores the commands and keeps on sucking the life out of my machine.

What are you running?

#1691 Post by mikeslr »

Hi James186282,

What are you running? Your computer specs, especially RAM and CPU(s)? Which of Tahrpup's possible kernels? What SFSes are loaded? What pets have you installed?

I'm currently posting from (i think the original) Tahrpup version on a Dell Latitude E6400: 3.14.56 Kernel, 3 Gb Ram, Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P8700 @ 2.53GHz.

On bootup, 3 SFSes are loaded, but not opened: Gimp, LibreOffice, Slimjet. There's about a dozen applications I've "installed". Most of them are small as, whenever possible, I use SFSes of applications which would occupy a significant amount of "Save Space". Additionally, many of the installed pets are merely links to applications run as "program folders": an application decompressed to a folder on /mnt/home. A couple years ago I ran comparative tests on applications installed as pets, loaded as SFSes and linked as "program folders", discovering that their RAM requirements at bootup were in that order and entailed significant differences.

Currently with only (firefox) Light and Htop running, Htop reports that the above system only uses less than 20% of its RAM and CPU. None of the "odd" processes you reported appeared. RAM usually is under 10%. With PupSysInfo opened, (some of) the "odd" processes you reported appear, but are using O% of CPU.

Googling suggests that many of the "odd" processes come into play on a system low in RAM. Tahrpup's minimum is 512 Mbs. That's what's needed for it to run, not run well.

Hi Mikesir:

Its an AMD64 Athlon X2 (Whatever the last fastest CPU was) I have 4 GB of ram *I didn't know I could get it to use 8 GB and have been considering that but I don't this its the problem because other machines with slower CPUs and 1 GB of ram run fine. For example I have a couple thinkpads (Nothing super new) that run like rockets and show the normal short list of routines running when your not actively running a routine like Firefox or whatever (*Side note: Anyone know why Firefox has to have 20+ listings in Htop?) Anyhow on everything I'm using Thar Pup 6.0.5 and it was screamingly (If thats a word) faster then blazes on the AMD tower. I must have installed something really bad and all of this rubbish arrived. My machine is suddenly Microsoft Windows Slow. Which should be a measurment in frustraition or anger.

For example. When that kid threw a rock through my window I was 5 MWSs mad. Or... I took my car to have the battery replaced and it took 3 weeks to be ready. Is that a 9.5 on the MWS scale or what?

On .sfs files I have a few that load but its always been my thought that they didn't slow down the machine unless you were actually running them? I'll have to try to grock that. Anyway good thought so I'll try unloading everything .sfs wise and see if it does anything.

Puppy has been the best fastest thing (and easiest) but now I'm able to type faster then its displaying text! This is a 10 on the WTFs / MWSs!

Anyone who can assist me in figuring this out will make my day!!!

Some thoughts:
1. Try a new browser or re-install an old old one.
2. Check for bottlenecks in system resourses: eg. ram, storage etc.
3. See what process you have running:
ps -aux

Maybe you can shut down sime services that you don't use.

If all else fails, then re-insall puppy, or insall a new puppy on a different drive, partition, file or folder.

P.S. killall should work.

I tried opera for the browser the command you gave seems to be identical in which routines are running. I'm going to do a new frugal install just as a sanity check but I'm 99% sure it won't have all this background - bloat.

I'm listening to Security Now and it sounds like that NSA snooping program is making a huge mess of a large percentage of computers out there. *Windows only I think.

SFSes, when loaded but not opened, require less RAM than an installed pet, but more RAM than a Program Folder. I ran the tests using LibreOffice and posted a table of the results: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=84457.

As Tahrpup ran well when you first installed it, you're probably correct that what's slowing it down is something you installed (or got installed without your permission). Always run Frugal Installs with AutoSave turned off. See, http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 326#662326: for Tahrpup, you can skip to the last couple of pages. And to be especially safe, use a SaveFile rather than a SaveFolder which sometimes (don't know why) may not delete all the files of applications you install and then uninstall.

Usually the worst offenders for hogging RAM are internet caches. They are files in a hidden folder, /root/.cache. If your web-browser permits it, have it clear cache when it shuts down or run an addon/extension to clear cache/history/etc. Alternatively, move the .cache folder out of /root to /mnt/home/SOMEPLACE and symlink it back. I do both; web-browser caches reside in a folder named Browser-Cache. As a hidden folder I might otherwise accidentally delete it and browsers, not finding it might create a new one, again in /root. AFAIK, Puppies treat everything in /root as essential and therefore to be loaded. A symlink takes up a couple bytes. 15 Minutes of browsing the internet can generate a couple hundred Mbs.

To also keep things out of /root, move my-documents folder to /mnt/home and symlink it back. Applications will still offer as their default options to open data files from and create data files in /my-documents, but now those documents will physically be on your hard-drive not your SaveFile/Folder or in RAM. Doing this is particularly important if you've removed the Automatic Save.

You can also run Menu>Filesystem>gdmap graphical disk usage. Shinobar discusses its usage here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=62110

Hopefully this will format in a readable way but I did as you suggested and piped the results into a file. I realize the formatting is awful but check out all this junk running. I tried to remove the obvious stuff that I'm used to seeing *But some maybe were missed.

I only googled some of the processes beginning with "k" --wondering why/how you installed K-desktop. :shock: All of those, however, appeared to be processes initiated when your system is low on RAM; which, yours shouldn't be unless (not probably) one or more of your (cumulative = 4Gb) banks of RAM isn't functioning properly.

If you're using grub4dos as bootloader, reboot and select Advanced-Menu. One of its options is to boot without loading your SaveFile/Folder. Then run Htop and Menu>System>Pup-Sys Info. The latter can provide information about your entire system. Under the devices tab is a listing for Memory. The Base Report under Sys-Specs will also provide that information, among other.

No problems for me. I tried a dozen or so, all worked just fine.
