Hmmm.. correct.. no log, oh well. That needs fixing.

Go and enjoy your moon!

Working ok here so far.

Thanks James.

I did notice an issue. HTML5 audio/video is not working. I got it sorted in slacko64 with the good, the bad and the ugly gst-plugins... but I just broke my pupsave in librepup so can't sort that for now.

I was running a 64 bit kernel and decided to change to a 32 so my build system would work properly (relies on uname -r for naming) and while the zdrv seems loaded, none of the modules are responsive; tried to switch back to the 64 kernel and the same thing. Seems like a new woof bug to me, can't be sure.

Anyway, I'm building a kernel in libre and will sort out qupzilla sooner or later

I installed 01micko's Qupzilla and ca-certificate pets (thanks), also installed
the flashplayer plugin.

It's working well.

Edit: Here's the Cmus pet if anyone would like it, the link is for Cmus documentation.

Edit: Nexuiz242 works great.

Hello, 01micko and all

Got qupzilla1.8.6 installed and working. Used your list for the libgstream*
and libwebkit. Also installed your "certificate" pet. However I used my
own qupzilla-1.8.6 package which I had prepared previously for
Pprecise-5.4.3. It's here:
-- https://www.adrive.com/public/4qBejQ/qupzilla-1.8.6.pet --
This pet archive comes with all locales and themes provided by the
qupzilla team.

It doesn't seem to need the QTlib's that you mention. We'll see,
experience will tell.

The end result is attached.

BTW, IMO, as a screen capture utility "Screeny" feels pretty clumsy
compared to SFR's "Take_a_Shot!", much less "professional" and less
polished. Iguleder should replace Screeny with "Take_a_Shot!", I think.

BFN.

Hello all.

A note in the spirit of the "libre":

There are Creative Commons backdrops here and here
-- https://hdwallpapers.cat/creative_commons --

If you don't like those, you'll find lots of other CC-licenced pictures by
setting your search engine to "Creative Commons wallpapers".

Not to forget the old but beautiful and still available Oxygen Office photo
gallery (now an extension of OpenOffice-4.1.1), composed of newspaper
"morgue" pictures and other professional sources.

BFN.

Nice moon! We don't get to see the eclipse here in the far, far east, never mind.

I think the upshot is that qupzilla is quite capable and doesn't need much more in the way of depends than VLC (most of QT is already there because of that). I vote for it for default

In other news.. @iguleder, I thought musl was a near certainty to be in the devx, but alas no.

Anyway, doesn't matter because ntfs-3g doesn't build with it anyway so I used Landleys aboriginal. this one is just for the initrd but of course if anyone wants to test it will work in the main system. It will be going into woof.

Tried it on my Compaq presario v4000 (circa 2005) with intel chipset video and wireless.
Everything is fine but the wireless (Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG).
I guess very few wireless cards are open source (some Atheros I think) because of presumptive "fears of security related lawsuits"...
This makes LibrePup problematic with laptops, but I guess this is the idea behind the "libre" movement. Make them provide the source.

Hi, Mick.

Yeah, it was really impressive. You don't think the moon can have a
copper/orangy color, we are so used to see it white. Unfortunately, there
were from time to time some clouds over the park where I was, so I
didn't get to see the entire transformation. But I did see about 75% of it.
The next "Blood Moon", as I learned it's called, will be back in this area in
2033. Likely, I'll be six feet under by then, which is why I wanted to see it
this time.

This type of lunar eclipse happens in a different part of the world every
year, so I'm sure Australians will get a chance to see it some day.

Back to our subject, people:
don't forget to enable as many extensions as you can in qupzilla, in
particular the "cookies" one. Otherwise qupzilla will go out like a candle
in the wind. (See capture 1)

Yeah, let's all sing a "Requies-cat in pace" for icecat... (I wish Flash didn't
hide the tongue-in-cheek icon so well.)
