Another try at a right-click add-on - remove false .gz

Seems to be much better and working good.

Had one problem.

Right click on a html or htm file.
Select Open with default viewer.

ZestyPup 17.10.05

Using the firefox-56.0.1 sfs from the link in post #1.

Tried Youtube several times, with fresh restarts of the browser.

Sound working for me with no problems.

Only problem I ever had was an add video started with sound turned off in the player window. Turned it on by clicking on speaker icon bottom of player window.

I have no added installed audio programs.

Note:
New Star Wars trailer looks really good!

17.10.05 updated to 17.10.06 using the delta. All md5sums correct.

The 'Create Pet Package' rightclick in Rox-Filer now works.

Samba server will not start out of the box. The testparm error is

Code: Select all

testparm: error while loading shared libraries: libtalloc.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

666philbs pet had a libtalloc.so.2 to libtalloc.so.2.1.9 symlink. Put that in and then the error msg was roughly about a missing libsmbregistry-samba4.so.x. Couldn't find that anywhere, reinstalled the pet, samba ran, uninstalled the pet, it still runs.

On the update, the wallpaper reverted to the default and I can't set a wallpaper. the correct name is copied to /root/.config/wallpaper/bg_img and it shows up ok in the setter in JWMDesk Manager but won't set. Any guidance?

edit: I got it back. Set the correct background file both in /root/Choices/ROX-Filer/PuppyPin and in /root/.config/wallpaper/bg_img, waved my arms about, swore mildy but creatively, restarted X, wash, rinse, repeat, and it's back. Earlier, I changed a theme using JWMDesk Manager and my panel disappeared I like the efficiency of JWM, but so far I'd be scared stiff to hand it out to my users whereas I have month and year long runs without any calls on the X-Slackos, X-Tahrs, and even fairly recent LxPupScs now. Still on board with elderZesty though.

PCManfm 1.25 is aboard and running well, your rightclicks and all, those I've tried. I have a symlink hack in for the trashcans but I am going to try disabling the stock 'move to trash' in the preferences and writing a custom rightclick to call the std. pup trash AppRun. Edit: rough as a cob but works. Posted here

What theme?
GTK theme?
JWM theme?
Icon theme?
Global theme?


What panel?
I assume you are talking about tray 1 or tray 2.

Hi @Marv

That link is definitely in the build - open puppy_zestypup_17.10.06.sfs to check - was it a pristine install??

Seems OK here....see screenie

global theme, tray 1. I don't use the upper tray. Sorry for the nomenclature, in many other WMs it is a 'panel' and JWMDesk Manager also refers to 'panel buttons' in the launch tab...

I could use a pointer to where in JWMDesk Manager or elsewhere you have the option to delete a tray.

Thanks,

Pristine except that I had installed 666philb's pet to check it and then uninstalled it. That may have 'covered' the link. It's about time to start over fresh but building the trays/themes hasn't been the smoothest process for me. Too many decades with LXDE or XFCE.

OK, restarted from pristine. Everything onboard again and working. Suspends & governors, Samba shares and client, HP4500 printing, pet creation from Rox-Filer rightclick, themes and wallpaper, tray, pcmanfm 1.25 with trash can, Slimjet 15.1.4.0. Using as my daily.

Hi all,

Is anyone seeing this problem with the latest "ydrv-right-sfs-gz"? I downloaded it, removed the .gz, put the resulting sfs in the zestypup 'frugal' folder, and Zesty refuses to see it. I've rebooted a few times, and still no luck. Strange, the ydrv-right-click sfs before this one Zesty saw no problems. Anyone any ideas? what am i doing wrong? I've downloaded it twice now (in case 1st download was corrupted), and still Zesty refuses to see the ydrv-####.06.sfs no matter where I put it.

[belham2]

[followup]

...ok, something's screwed up....the ydrv isn't even loaded, so in trying to get it load, I right-clicked on it, and there was "open with SFS-LOAD", so I clicked on that, and below (the pic) is what I got. And DO NOT click "set your background" because it will somehow automatically wipe the current background that is set up:

You're mixing up a ydrv for 17.10.06 with a 17.10.02 system install!!

They need to be consistent - i.e. all named the same.....

17.10.11 is just uploading....

I updated PPM and installed several applications including Kodi and
Smplayer/Smtube.

I install Firefox with PPM and it was outdated so I downloaded the
latest and copied it into the /usr/lib/firefox directory.

Zestypup seems to be working well so far,
Thanks.

Aweeeeee, crap, I knew it was something so simple....yet.... ......dangzchwangfabbit........goddam# puppy naming conventions are going to drive me bananas one day. Hey, batter, batter, I'll trade ya an .02 for an .04, no wait, you want an .03 well then I've got a great .05 for ya, no likey any of those, just wait for the .06, it'll blow your flippin' socks off man....and the .11, my heavens, it's like the purest high you'll ever get

[peebee]

Time for a rebase.....

ZestyPup-17.10.11 is the new base

Iso here (also devx and kernel sources)

Delta from 17.10.1 here

Kernel is now 4.9.56

JWM is now 2.3.7 thanks to @666philb and @zigbert

PMusic is now 5.6.0

Both Ptheme and JWMDesk may have some minor wrinkles to be sorted....

I installed all the same applications as before with PPM.
No sound with Firefox at the local news site.

Otherwise working well.
Thanks.

[bigpup]

You need to be specific about what Firefox you are using!!!!!

If you did this, as you reported in earlier post:

I install Firefox with PPM and it was outdated so I downloaded the
latest and copied it into the /usr/lib/firefox directory.

That Firefox will need the sound fix applied.

Fix audio in Firefox 52 without having to install PulseAudio.

As with all previous versions, sound and video problems persist in delta-'11', everything else working well (so far), nice work peebee!

FYI: Ubuntu is not planning any LTS (long term support) for Zesty so it may end up like Vivid did with little or no help from them, Puppy may well be on its own with Zesty.

>>>---Indian------>

Edit: While I was thinking there was a problem with Zesty '11' (mentioned above) I booted some other puppy builds only to find that the same audio and video problems were happening to them also... of course my first reaction was to blame Zesty for messing up the audio & video on my entire computer because of course, I tried all the alsa configurations, rebooted the computer a few times and still the same problem. After awhile I decided to to completly shut down my system... 'everything' including power to the modem.

After a new restart and new modem boot up and it re-config'd itself I tried my regular everyday puppy and it was back to normal again so.... back in went Zesty '11' and it also now works (audio & video) like a charm!

What happened to screw things up in the beginning??? Maybe a modem virus? or I was hacked? was it in fact something in Zesty creating the problem? I just don't know... I will keep testing to see if it happens again.

Hi,

ZestyPup-17.10.11
Fresh frugal install.

menu>Desktop>JWMDesk manager>Options>Global Themes

Selecting a different global theme removes tray 2 from the desktop.

Getting it back seems to be a hard thing to accomplish.
Still unable to get it completely back to original condition.

JWMDesk manager>Desktop>Puppy Setup>Desktop>Tray
This allows you to make a tray 2 and place it at top of desktop, but you have to configure it to try and get the tray back to having the same original buttons.
