if goingnuts or technosaurus (or anyone ) reads this

i would like to know your opinion
on statically compiling the old gtk1-dillo
so that i could have gtkedit emelfm and gtk-1dillo
all gtk1 apps
as a base tcz for corepup
i am going to try to get it to work with its old libraries
which it did fine in the older puppies

any thoughts

wanderer

That can be done.
Compile and install glib-1.2.10 and gtk+-1.2.10 and afterwards compile the programs you want ( static or dynamic linked ).
If static linked you need the static libs of xlib as well.

hi all

just an update to annoy everyone
and remind all that i continue to work on this little project

i have decided that i will make a corepup tcz
that has everything needed to build corepup from a base tc iso

it will include
1 the corepup howto
2 the corepup-jwm
3 some corepup backgrounds
4 the corepup syslinux.cfg to mod the boot menu
5 the corepup tc-config to mod the boot functions
6 other corepup stuff as decided

then anyone can download the base iso
add the corepup tcz
read the howto and mod what they want
and they will have a corepup iso

there are a great many mods and additional functions
that can be added to tc
to make a unique corepup version
and i am working on all this now

will post again soon

have a nice life

Hello, sounds like an interesting project. If you have anything working you should link to it in the first post so people don't have to skim through the whole thread to find the latest version but perhaps it isn't ready for release yet. I don't know, I haven't found it and I haven't tried it.

hi guys

thank you cisbear for your support
and s243a for your interest

i apologize
i have been a very poor project manager
but i beg forgiveness
i have been playing with things in corepup
and not posting
and i have demands from my job

i have tried to explain that looking at the tinycore system
is really the key
i am just adding things to expand its functions
and make it more useful to the puppy community

if you download the tc isos and play with them
everything i am doing will become clear

this project is just intended to provide an answer
to the perennial questions on the forum
for a minimal modular system and community project

mcewanw has done a great job
and his system is more powerful
since it accesses the debian repositories
so looking at what he has done may be more useful

i will post the corepup tcz when time allows
and i will put it on the first post so people can find it easily

thanks all

wanderer

hi all

i continue to play with corepup

which is an attempt to combine the advantages of
puppy and tinycore

one way to do this is to make puppy sfs files into tinycore tcz files

the best choice would be a browser
firefox or chrome or one of their derivatives

does anyone have a suggestion for what puppy sfs would be a good candidate ?

HI wanderer.

Good to see you back.

I'm not sure I understand your post above:
a puppy.sfs is a complete OS, as is tinycore. If you offer a Puppy.sfs in tinycore,
the two OS's will conflict, yes?

If you just want to put a browser in an sfs and convert it to tcz, I'd offer the extremes:
links2 and vivaldi
potentially the smallest browser and potentially the largest browser,
just to get people talking!

BFN.

Hi wanderer - I would suggest one of the Slimjet sfs files available from OscarTalks repositories:

What does this thread and the promise of 'cold fusion' have in common?

wanderer · #403 Post by **wanderer** » Thu 22 Mar 2018, 17:11

answer both cold fusion and this thread are going to revolutionize the world

but hey its my fantasy no harm done
and there are actually some good ideas in all of this if you keep an open mind

thanks for the feedback i didn't even know those browsers existed
i know its conservative but i think maybe just one of the firefox sfs
might be a good choice because its so familiar to everyone
and since i have virtually no skills i will have to ask for advice
any firefox or firefox derivatives on the apps thread
that look good

wanderer

wanderer · #404 Post by **wanderer** » Fri 23 Mar 2018, 02:02

there looks like there is a bunch of firefox sfs on the apps threads
will require 32 bit before pulseaudio
i will down load unsquash and symlink them from a directory
and see how things go

cheers

I don't know anything about tinycore packages but x-slaco slim, pUPnGOand TLC Puppy can all install tinycore packages.

There is something wrong with this "sfs". Please check.

I decided to stop the download of this "slimjet.zip" at 266 Mg.
And it was from the yandex site, not OscarTalks'.

No known browser is 266 Mg big, zipped...

Hi Musher - this is what I see at that link:

(seems all good to me - a variety of pet and sfs versions for different users.... Not sure why OscarTalks uses Yandex - I would have preferred smokey01's repo - but who knows)

musher0 · #409 Post by **musher0** » Wed 18 Apr 2018, 12:20

Thanks, greengeek.

I was finally able to download the file I wanted. I find this yandex "ftp"
mumble-inducing; it tool me 5 minutes to figure it out. (Ok, now I know.)
