I have done a new manual frugal install with alpha 11 to a new folder and using a new save folder.

The Save interval is working now using System Tools > Puppy Event Manager > Save Session, however using the System Tools > Save-Manager, it is still changing any '0', '-0', '+0' to '5'.

There also appears to be a regression with the save. Initial setup of the Save Folder is working. Any subsequent changes are not written to the save folder. This is happening when Shutdown/Reboot or the Save Session from the Desktop. All the ash: out of range messages are also now re-occurring at shutdown.

You can see if the switch.sh script fixes the save issues. It fixes these issues on alpha 9.

Run it logged in as root.

So I'm looking at alpha 11, now. the Shebang still says ash for snapmergepuppy. Maybe changing it to bash would help like it did on alpha 9. The other thing that the above script did was installed the coreutils version of readlink. I don't know if this is necessary or not on alpha 11. Will test.

In alpha 11, the, "Screen Save Timeout" menu option doesn't work for me under the setup menu.

Hi mistfire, tazpkg is working well, including install dependencies on alpha 11

I downloaded script and then logged in as root. I ran the script, which I think ran OK. Unfortunately saves are still not functioning. i'll wait for it to be fixed as part of the release.

Try typing this on the command-line
Code:

bash -x snapmergepuppy

@Terry H we need to trace that error on snapmergepuppy since tazpup is now using the coreutils of slitaz.

@s243a I hope that you can trace the problem too on snapmergepuppy. I think I need to add package mime types on /usr/share/applications/default.list in order the package conversion work on root.

I'm thinking of trying to buld the following next:
https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/system/zarfy/

so it is easier to use two monitors.

The nouveau driver in tazpup only detects one of my two monitors. I'm sure zarfy will only see one monitor as well.

In alpha 11, there is a bug where if you try to install something offline with tazpkg...for example:
Code:

tazpkg install uextract-3.32.tazpkg

and you don't specify the full path then you get the following error:
Code:

/usr/libexec/tazpkg/install: .: line 415: can't open '/tmp/tmp.iz9hDB/receipt'


It shouldn't be too hard to fix. One just needs to note the current directory and adjust the path accordingly.

The work around to this bug is to specify the whole path when using tazpkg.

Code:

tazpkg install /root/Downloads/uextract-3.32.tazpkg

Some things that aren't working for me on alpha 11:
1. Sound on youtube (I'm using a 64bit system if that maters).
2. If I write click on a menu item and select properties, nothing comes up.

As for reporting on things that work..my Synergy package works Very Happy

I'm able to copy text back and forth between windows and TazPup with it, and share a mouse and keyboard between windows and TazPup.

Hmm...there may be issues:
Code:

sh-4.4# xrandr -q
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 1280 x 768, current 1280 x 768, maximum 1280 x 768
default connected 1280x768+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   1280x768        0.0*
sh-4.4#

Machine Tested on: Dell Studio 1555


Installed latest Alpha 11 by placing files from ISO into file frugally as usual.

Sound and video working. Save folder worked and time working correctly.
Package Manager is installing with dependencies correctly. Was able to run one of my gtkdialog programs which used to be a problem in pre Alpha 10 days. This was a fresh Frugal install without save file from existing version.
