(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

OK, just to be certain I downloaded the latest 5x15 again (and the devx as well), checked the md5sums, and rebooted (without saving).

Then I set up the timezone and wireless connection, just so that is done and puts some unique content into the Save File.

I rebooted and all of the steps, including partition, were there.

No idea what happened but it's all good now!

Thanks!

Now back to wrestling with the ax25 stack ...

He's learning C++ and wants to be able to compile his test code without leaving Puppy Exprimo.

Hi

Using Exprimo 5.1.5 now - on my daughter's 1yr old Laptop (Emachines E732) and all seems good.
This laptop uses broadcom for wifi and it is working.

Super fast - it screams.
Next test is to put it on my 10yr old Acer Laptop - am sure it will be good.

Thanks Pemasu for another fine Puppy.

Very best regards - Ray

I have 5X15 (Is 5.1.5 the same thing?) on a Panasonic Toughbook CF-29 and it is working fine as well ... pending more tests later.

I will probably update all of the computers here ... after a few days of others testing as well ...

Thanks of the feedback guys. If I dont get tomorrow bug reports....I will announce this in the first page.

Hi Pemasu

Dpup Exprimo 5.X.15 looking very good on my 10 yr old Acer laptop.

Just a very quick test - and all seems ok.

Will try on the EeePc 2moro - snoring time now.

Thanks for a really supa-dupa Puppy - very best regards - Ray

Been busy but finally got 5.X.15 installed (manual frugal) on my Athlon XP box...... no problems yet. Looks good.

Rebooted,made savefile and started tweaking.......all good so far.

Hate to be a pain, but I really need that C++ compiler ASAP; my boss is not a patient man anymore...

On the previous page, pemasu gave you the link to the devx package. It contains the compiler. Did you try it?

Since it's an SFS, you will need to use the SFS loader tool in your Setup or System menu.

Or right click devx sfs and load it with sfs_load rox right click app which is in right click menu.

I loaded the SFS and hit run, nothing. What dependency am I missing this time, I wonder...

I usually download source code of the application. Then I extract it, I go to the extracted folder and I run in console ./configure (with needed options), then I run make -j 6 and then I run make install DESTDIR=/path/to/the/destination/folder, next I run strippkg, splitpkg and at last I use rox right click app dir2pet ie makepet from rox right click menu.

So....now you could tell us what you want to accomplish and how you do it usually. Detailed description.

Do you want to compile with gcc in console or do something else.

Hello Warrior522,
Try looking in your menu to see if it has been updated with the various applications and components from the devx.sfs

The SFS load application should list what .sfs files are loaded - if the devx.sfs is loaded you should see it in the panel to 'Unload SFS'

Also...in console: gcc --version
tells you if gcc has been loaded (from devx sfs)

Hi Pemasu,
I think Warrior522 maybe means he hit run to start some application from the popup gui screen directly after an sfs has been loaded?

(4.4.5-8) 4.4.5

Exactly.

Warrior522. That gui Run is misleading. Forget it. When you load sfs, you get usual bins and libs loaded which you need for compiling.

So you have loaded devx sfs succesfully. And you have gcc in use.
Now you should tell, what you want to do. I use gcc with previously mentioned commands. But I dont know what you want to accomplish.

I need to get the compiler running so I can use it to test out C++ files.
