Has anyone got a wacom tablet working in Saluki?

If not then willing to give it a go but my code / compiling experience is very limited - but keen to learn

Have plenty of experience coding in other languages just never made anything for puppy yet

No one's mentioned it yet. I think the wacom driver is there already. I'm not sure what else you would need. There's a command "xsetwacom" that might come in useful.

@jemimah
Need to remove or comment out the DISTRO_XORG_AUTO at the first stage of /root/Startup/firstrun.
See the firstrun-2.0.9. Anyway, I will upload v2.1 soon.
I see what you mean. Thanks!

A realtime kernel is going to be fairly difficult. There's probably only a few people on the forum that could pull it off.
I may decide to work on it after the release unless pemasu takes an interest.
Probably not. I am more or less interested in testing and compinling for puppy the stock kernel.org kernels. With my testing cycle...patching individual kernel is not priority for me. And I dont need micro - nanoseconds latency fixes. I leave them to the musicians. I just listen music...in this life.

Go for it Jemimah so that your brain cells and synapsies have something stimulating to do... :D
unless realtime is somehow connected to ARM i see this as too expensive for puppys limited resources. especially since announcer already has cracked it all be it at a price. too limited market. while channeling resources to ARM port meets with an abundant future and much wider audience. just my 2cents.

Love the new conky themes ;) thank you Jemimah :) how do we resize or move these conky widgets ?

Best regards

To move or resize the conky widgets you'll need to edit the config files, which can be found /root/.conky.

Conky switcher 02 is uploaded to the repo by the way, with new themes.

  1. Is there a log of what the custom builder does?
  2. Does the custom builder have a configuration file?
  3. Should the custom builder abort (accidental or by user action), can the custom builder restart where it last checkpoint'ed?
  4. Is there a plan or has there been any thoughts about a single screen that can start custom builder in such a way as its a wee-bit more apparent where it going to take us?
Here to help
Your configuration file is the pets you select. Just choose the same build location every time you run it and they will be saved.

I noticed two bits of outdated info on the saveconfig.

See pictures: both show saving as 2fs instead of 4fs.

You have to upgrade to get the splash screen.

@shinobar
Will the nvidia .sf you made work with earlier kernels like
2.6.37.6?

@einar
Is conkyforecast a weather forecast for conky. If so can you post where you got it from?

Thanks mucho. Lee

open file manager, select show hidden files, choose .conky, choose the theme of your choice, not all of the themes support forecast but the ones that do have a txt page with info on how to start it.

and the themes only show up after you have tried them out in the conky switcher.

I've uploaded a bunch of new icon themes to the repo.
Screenshots here: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 954#618954

I've also added a bunch of gtk themes but some of the colors won't render correctly until saluki-019.
