puduan for testing only

Just built this in woof-ce xorg
kernel 4.3
some problem with libstartup.so.0 probably just needs a link.

Hi, stemsee.

Thanks for your effort.

So this is an early alpha and there is no xorg in it yet, right?
(Just to be clear.)

BFN.

hi Musher0

taken from here woof-ce > xorg branch
https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/tree/xorg
not really sure about the xorg part. It seems to be there. when at prompt type xinit instead of 'xwin jwm' to see error message.

I was just testing my huge-kernel-package compatibility with woof-ce new build and that worked perfectly.

Hi, stemsee.

Your URL is too general. Never mind if it's too complicated. You type
< which something > to know if a program is in your Puppy.

Simply type

Code: Select all

which Xorg
in your prototype and tell us the results?

I don't want to dowload something for 15-20 minutes just to find out. You
already know, you created the stuff, no doubt you tested it a bit, so please
tell me.

Lately, I've downloaded Slacko64 and TahrPup64 made from the woof-CE
only to find out that their xorgwizard didn't work on my HPInvent dual-core
portable.

By comparison, I downloaded the JustLightHouse64 and it worked OOTB.

I don't want to lose my time any more downloading and testing non-
working Puppy prototypes. If you are in a position to tell me that the xorg /
xorgwizard problem has been solved -- or not -- in your incarnation of woof-
CE, please have the politeness of telling me.

Thanks in advance.

Good that lh64 works, it is one of the best distros out there! No need to look any further ... !

Xorg/xorgwizazrd hasn't been solved for your needs as yet!

Stop teasing and share the details ... pleeease! How did you get it to fire up the desktop?

hi stemsee...
this is off the top of my head as on my phone at the mo.
from the prompt.

Code: Select all

ldd /usr/bin/jwm
(always the first thing i do if no desktop) shows libfibidi & libjpeg8 missing. i shutdown, created a savefolder, booted another pup and manually added the libs to the save folder...

this should get you to desktop but i had no keyboard or touchpad. so i added my working xorgconf to the savefolder and also this find_missing_libs script into /root

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh 
#  2004/08/22  K. Piche  Find missing library references. 
ifs=$IFS 
IFS=':' 

libdirs="/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib" 
extras="/usr/local/bin" 

#  Check ELF binaries in the PATH and specified dir trees. 
for tree in $PATH $libdirs $extras 
do 
        echo DIR $tree 

        #  Get list of files in tree. 
        files=$(find $tree -type f) 
        IFS=$ifs 
        for i in $files 
        do 
                if [ `file $i | grep -c 'ELF'` -ne 0 ]; then 
                        #  Is an ELF binary. 
                        if [ `ldd $i 2>/dev/null | grep -c 'not found'` -ne 0 ]; then 
                                #  Missing lib. 
                                echo "$i:" 
                                ldd $i 2>/dev/null | grep 'not found' 
                        fi 
                fi 
        done 
done 

exit
there's no working terminal so from the prompt

Code: Select all

sh /root/script > /root/missing.txt
will create a txt file of what libs are missing. (read in a working pup)

i just manually added a few of the more important missing libs (from the output of that script) and also some pet packages to get online and post that pic :)

urxvt from wary repo as very few deps
shared-mime-info
rox filer
leafpad

to get the ppm working i needed to resolve the missing dependencies for awk gtkdialog gtk and also grab a tar.deb as busybox tar doesn't work.

have a play manually adding stuff.
then if you take a bit of time and add all the missing libs to the DISTRO_PKG_SPECS file ,the next build should be a solid minimum base.

Now I know! :D

Thanks very much for that tutorial! It will be very useful.

Ally has stored all Puduans under Musher0 repository

Ally has stored all Puduans under Musher0 repository in Archives.org.
People will choose version regarding to the builder there. My choice is Sailor Enceladus one, perhaps there is worse, or better. However i am fully satisfied with it
More than how is named an OS, my purposse is to get pplications for my hobbies. Typing docs sure never was my cup of tea, nevertheless i tried to download Abiword from Devuan (?) . Happy with that. Puduan serves the last version 3.0.2-2 , version wich allows employees to work on unique version, updating it on line.
Puduans :
puduan-6.0.0.iso 18-Aug-2016 16:50 196.0M
puduan-6.0.0_r4825.iso 20-Feb-2017 17:02 226.8M

puduan-7.0.0a2-g4dos-altkernel-devx_r5547.iso 29-Sep-2017 10:44 427.7M
Mine is r5403... :?: not listed ? !!! Even Dogs have a name.. Numbers for Puppy is not human IMO. they are not objects.

:idea: There are many versions, home made, by our Puppy Builders. It would be nice to precise everywhere the builder ( as done for stemsee)
