Good luck with your LAMPP file. Give me a shout if you need any help


Thanks for the kind offer...I finally found another USB drive that I setup to

use with the sfs converter...and now have a 4 version of XAMPP172

and OxygenOffice 301.



It seems that any version of OpenOffice3.1.1 available for Puppy causes the MySQL in XAMPP to stop working.
I've noticed the problem with XAMPP installed normally and the sfs files.

Have just reuploaded SFS_Linker-1.3-430.pet


Once again, I am confused....does this overcome the small number of loops that Barry allows in 4.3 and older versions?

Thanks
Thom

Yes, as long as you:
Quote:
If you set up a frugal or usb install please add:Code:
maxloop=28
to the kernel line in menu.1st or the append line in syslinux.cfg. With it you can use 24 SFS packages, without it you get 9.


This is already done if your using the ChoicePup CD. You have to set it up yourself for frugal and usb installs.

Took me awhile to figure out what you meant. I downloaded SFS_Linker1.3 and tried it, same message. Must have been a bad upload.

Try this one instead, SFS_Linker-1.4-430.pet

I used the inbuilt converter in 4.3.1RC2 to convert you 3 version of Koffice to 4 .... it seems ok .... what problems did you experience?

Seems to load w/o error....do I need to also install ldconfig into Puppy 4.31, or was just for older versions?

Thanks

Haven't had to go from 4 to 3 (yet), but thanks for making that available.
Was petmaker-1.7-3.pet the last one that converted sfs to pet?

Thanks so much for the applications and the help you've given. Good luck with the new job.

Yes, you should install ldconfig430.pet and my_links.petinto Puppy431. Then you should be good to go.

As for K-Office, I had a tough time getting it to open from the desktop icons. I can still only get it to uninstall by rebooting.

Thanks for pointing that out trio. I didn't realize it would go from 4 to 3. I've used it lots to go from 3 to 4. Going the other way too will be a real time saver.

I have just uploaded SFS_Linker-431bk-1.0.pet. This is a self-contained package which will add SFS "on the fly" capability to the standard Puppy431 distro.

See this thread, SFS_Linker-431bk-1.0 for further details.

Hi jrb et al,

I have a request about another sfs package to add to this interesting Puppy derivative/project.

Would/could anyone please make an sfs file from the language files maintained by Irihapeti here

http://puppylinux.asia/members/Irihapeti/

I think the language capability via scim is important and with Choicepup and sfs on the fly I feel it would be used and enjoyed by many people worldwide.

I have spoken to Irihapeti who has agreed to help tweak anything that needs to be done for language support via scim and sfs...alas, neither of us are sfs builders and need the help of the community on this one.

Any help is appreciated..TIA,
Eric
