I have a pair of powered speakers plugged into the blue 3.5 mm stereo (TRS) jack on the back of the machine. Audio is on mobo I think, not a separate sound card.Is this output to analog speakers or something like HDMI?

Before I created /root/.asound.rc the card selector said card1. Now it says card0.

Hi Fred,
For anyone fed up with relying on Debian/Ubuntu bloated apps for building their small distros...
Have you taken a look at 'Void Linux'? I know you have a lot on your plate, but if you ever wanted a distro that has its own independent package manager (called XBPS; working like apt/dpkg really) with ability, I believe, to build its own tailored-small apps, from source, for own repositories (local and/or remote), a VoidDog with Porteus boot working would be a real winner IMO. Of course, maybe I should look into that myself, but as I've stated many times I'm really not personally interested in building distros (and would have to spend ages learning how Porteus boot or similar works) - I just like building apps like weX or programming system utils in C or whatever more generally. I'm far too lazy to polish any distro or maintain one - I'd abandon any such effort way prior to bothering about completion...!!!
Void iso is not itself small, but includes tons of firmware, so I'm sure a very small cutdown puppylike version could certainly be made. Has various DE iso versions (and one without) and also tar.gz version(s) for chroot use... Can also use musl or glibc choice of iso used.
I briefly described my initial experiments with Void Linux here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 51#1022151
NOTE: Doesn't use systemd - uses runit, which first experience with I enjoyed.

Here's another user's comment about Void Linux. Not everyone on that thread agrees, it's fair to say, but what's new about 'disagreements'

In reply to: I’m just wondering if anyone here uses Void as a daily driver or has any thoughts about the distro.

I use the musl variant with dwm. Whatever the distro I have an Ubuntu 18.04 chroot whenever I need a package that doesn't exist, requires Ubuntu or a PPA, or requires glibc.
I love Void because it's lean and hackable, in the Unix tradition. The packages are split, and if you're willing to spend time with it you can really remove a lot of cruft, even more than Debian because it doesn't use systemd.
In my case I wrote my own udev scripts plus devmon so I don't require gvfs (even my smartphone mounts automatically), or actually anything from a DE, it's all CLI. No need for polkit, pulseaudio, glibc, or xdg either, it's Linux your way.
To sum up: it's still a hackable binary distro, there's no monolith, there are few processes by default and you can swap any core part of the system, unlike Arch, Ubuntu or Fedora which have turned into an Open Source Windows-like system.
Get yourself a Void chroot and try it now

Android USB data connection

Problem downloading files from Samsung Android phone to PC running Bionic Dog 32bit via USB data cable. See attached error message.
Is fixing this a simple matter of downloading/installing something using Synaptic? I tried some search terms but could not find anything that matched the error message.

Instead, I got ES File Manager on my phone and use it to move files back and forth over wifi (SAMBA on my computer) and I can also play videos and mp3 files from my hard drive on my phone. I also use wifi so I can use my phone as a remote control for my computer.

It does not work with any of the "Dog" versions I've tried so far.

Hi Ether, I have no idea what's missing in the Dogs, but you may want to try camphonetab, program by rcrsn51

Re: Android USB data connection
I've had Dog to Android transfers working in the past (wrote about it on some thread here, but forget which one). However, it was flaky (sometimes failed to connect), so I tend to use other means nowadays (e.g. last time I installed sftp server daemon on android and used sftp for transfer). I think the method I originally used involves setting up MTP as described in links below.Ether wrote:.

Several tools provide a FUSE based file system for mounting MTP devices within the Unix filesystem hierarchy, making it accessible to any program that operates on files and directories. Examples include mtpfs, jMTPFS, go-mtpfs and simple-mtpfs, etc...
mtp-tools
install package name=mtp-tools
TODO: document usage, but see below.
jmtpfs
Uses FUSE to mount your device's MTP structure into a POSIX filesystem, and fusermount to unmount the device.
install package name=jmtpfs
create <directory> as your mount point: $ mkdir -p <directory>
make sure you have write access to <directory>: $ sudo chown $USER:$USER <directory>
to mount your device: $ jmtpfs <directory/>
On some MTP devices: your screen must be unlocked in order to mount. However, you might get a (spurious) input/output error even if the screen is unlocked.
to unmount your device: $ fusermount -u <directory/>
mtpfs
mtpfs has been orphaned since Squeeze, anyway mtpfs is very similar to jmtpfs, except for the executable name, package name, and package status
install package name=mtpfs
to mount your device: $ mtpfs <directory/>
to unmount your device: $ fusermount -u <directory/>

how to use deb files with "dog" and"puppy" distros ?
.
I've never used deb files.
While I'm busy searching, if someone could post a link to a beginner's guide I'd be grateful.

Right click on the .deb file. Choose "install .deb" or similar.

what pleasant way to end a day!
Last night I installed on 2 separate machines BionicDog32 and BionicDog64 to test install ZoneMinder running on a fully capable LAMP equipped with the zmeventnotification server and it's object detection and recognition. Which does face and or license plate recognition when so configured.
I followed the tried and true instructions here
there is an automated script that works on BDog that will do the necessary work.
Well it all installed as expected and worked out of the box. And after hours of testing seems to be running very well.
BDog on both machines is frugally installed with a save folder booting from Hard drive and a hard drive with a USB adapter saved from a broken Dell desktop.
I am going to recommend to the developer(s) at ZoneMinder, BionicDog as a good base OS for the system and to add it to the list of tested OS's

I was able to get a window showing a folder purportedly containing the files on the Android phone, but no files were listed.
I will gladly post screenshots and detailed steps I took if anyone is interested in pursuing this.

Create wps-office.squashfs
Good day sir, i followed the forum guide to edit an empty squashfs file in order to create wps-office.squashfs. Can i directly extract the wps-office.deb file to a folder, then copy paste all its content to the empty squashfs file?
I am trying to create the squashfs for wps-office suite to keep my bionicdog base system small. The wps-office is taking over 500mb of space currently.
