Hello.
I have been trying tazpup since Alpha 13.
I think tazpup sets hwclock in utc. On the other hand, windows assumes that the hardware clock is in local time.
I have some puppies installed on my PC in addition to windows, and all the puppies set hwclock in local time. The setting of tazpup affects the other puppies and windows.
As for tazpup, is it possible to choose between localtime and utc?
Regards.

@thinkpadfreak for the meantime just delete the TZ file in /etc. type unset TZ in terminal and press enter. And use hwclock -l to set the system time to local only. Im trying to fix this system time problem.
Right now I will try to prepare the first beta release of TazPup.

Thank you for response.
I suspect that, though the procedure above makes hardware clock equal system time, ntpd or something writes utc into hardware clock. As a result, system time is different from localtime.
I think that, if we have the file /etc/localtime, system time will be corrected. But hardware clock will remain in utc.
Anyway, I am looking forward to the beta version.

Related to time, there should be something to set lets you set time from the internet. I think that I might of done this under
Slitaz Panel -> Boot -> Manage Daemons
before. Oddly the version of TazPup that I'm running, while I post now, has this grayed out but I'm sure that I used it before. Maybe this was fixed in later versions.
Edit. So Under Tux, I set the timezone under:
Setup -> Time Zone COnfiguration
I logged out looged in as root and the time was correct (Maybe it would have also been correct if I logged back in under Tux.
Anyway, Under root I was able to open
Slitaz Panel -> Boot -> Manage Daemons
and the time server was running. It is called, "ntpd".
I did all this using alpha 12. I have newer versions of TazPup installed just not on the computer that I was presently typing on.
Edit 2 I logged out then back in as Tux and the time is still correct but for better or worse Tux doesn't have access to "Manage Daemons".

Adjustment of the hardware clock by "ntpd" is OK, but the hardware clock has to be in localtime for the compatibility with Windows. Ntpd seems to set the hardware clock in utc, which causes a problem.
Edit:
In order to keep the hardware clock in localtime, one might either stop ntpd or, issue a command before shutdown such as:
# hwclock --systohc --localtime

Thank you for your advice.
However, my concern is not how to set the time zone correctly but how to set the hardware clock as we wish (localtime or utc).

I am using Alpha 17 under Japanese environment. The clock issue seems to have been mostly fixed.
One of the members in Puppy Linux Japanese Forum suggests a setting as follows:
/etc/daemons.conf
NTPD_OPTIONS="-nqp pool.ntp.org"
This way, ntpd quits after clock is set. (It does not run as a daemon) This setting seems to help prevent the hardware clock being re-written in the way we don't expect.
P.S.
urxvt does not function properly. Some commands cannot be executed, probably because it is a cut-down version.

I kind of like this approach because it means less process running . It also should be adequate for most peoples needs.

Hello there
Can you help me about this problem.
I noticed that pristine slitaz triggers /etc/init.d/rc.shutdown when going to shutdown or reboot while in tazpup does not but it is defined in /etc/inittab in both slitaz and tazpup. Any ideas how to get it work on tazpup?

I'm just looking at the code and the following doesn't appear to be an error:
Ln#416 of make-tazpup.sh
Code: |
mksquashfs "slitaz-rootfs" "$DISTRO_PUPPYSFS" -comp xz -Xbcj x86 -b 1M -Xdict-size 100%
|
However, for if some reason you leave "$curdir" (due to a code modification) then it will get an error. The code might be more robust to changes if you use the following instead:
Code: |
mksquashfs "$curdir/slitaz-rootfs" "$DISTRO_PUPPYSFS" -comp xz -Xbcj x86 -b 1M -Xdict-size 100%
|
and this would be more consistent with the rest of your code.

So I couldn't figure out why I was deleting files and wasn't freeing up any space. After some time of incessant deleting I finally figured out all the files were being moved to:
/mnt/home/.Trash-0/files
The trick is to open /mnt/home/ as root. This option is available by right clicking the folder.
After one navigates to the above path, one must highlight all the items in the folder then in the edit menu (located on the menu bar) select "remove". This removed most files except for ldlinux.sys, basesfs.msh, blank.png, boot.msg, elp.msg, savefile.msg, startnet.msg.

You use to be able to right click on the desktop and select logout. This no longer work on TazPup Alpha 17. This is relevant, because sometimes when you install packages the taskbar disappears. I also noticed that if you logout by:
/etc/init.d/slim stop
that
/etc/init.d/slim start
doesn't restart the desktop. This isn't a problem to me because it makes sense to have logging in and starting the desktop as to separate functions. However, I need to know the command to start the desktop.

Hello
I sucessfully make the slitaz shuts down like a puppy by redirecting /etc/rc.d/rc.shutdown output to /dev/tty1 instead of /dev/console. However it requires some refinements and tweaks to make got it work. Also I will try to get work it on non-acpi computers.
