to remove the tray delete /root/.jwmrc-tray
more info for jwm kiosk related stuff here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=51200

I haven't used it in a while so I have forgotten what all else I removed when I did it - anything specific?

OK, I am getting closer
my remaining problem is when I press CTRL+ALT+D to disable right click on mouse
then remaster the cd
right click on mouse is back

How do I disable the Right Click on the Mouse and retain it when I remaster the CD?

Can you advise where this function is stored and maybe I can figure it out

appreciate all your help and patience

When the key combo is pressed to disable the right mouse a line is written to xorg.conf (using SED). I have that in one of the startup scripts. Once i have a little time away from my rugrats, i will give you the exact details.

rather than disable the right mouse click all together you can edit the jwmrc template where it says onroot="3"
change it to onroot="{0,4-9}"

(1,2, and 3 are left middle and right mouse click)

then if you just rename your tray instead of deleting it you can change the corresponding root:#
<TrayButton label="Menu" icon="mini-dog.xpm">root:3</TrayButton>

(I am assuming you may need the right mouse click at some point - Gcompris has a mouse learning module that uses it)

This is the way i did it in the kiosk versions

/usr/sbin/xorgwizard

and

#echo "Probing the video card and monitor..."

I adjusted some code to

Code: Select all

#v2.21 quick hack...added buttonmapping to disable right mouse sidders
sed -e 's%/dev/input/mice%/dev/mouse%'  /etc/X11/xorg.conf > /tmp/xorgconfmousefix
sed  '/ZAxisMapping/ a\
    Option      "ButtonMapping" "1 1 1"' /tmp/xorgconfmousefix > /etc/X11/xorg.conf
rm /tmp/xorgconfmousefix

As Technosaurus says there is no way back unless you edit the file. It also doesnt work with laptop touchpads.

special thanks to sidders and Technosaurus for your assistance.
after several remasters, i finally got it to work.
due to my ignorance in programming, it took me a while to figure out how to insert your code -- all the " > ' symbols and spacing had me going for a while.

I bought a AA0 532h at Costco for my 6-yr old daughter's birthday. I immediately set out to be a kid-friendly distro on there instead of Win7.

While she uses Qimo in a VM on our desktop, I decided HanSamBen was a better choice for now (we'll see what Qimo2 looks like and if the AAO can handle it).

So after lots of frustrating learning, I have HanSamBen working on her machine, except the wireless. It appears to be a AR928X card which may not be supported by this version of Puppy.

Am I out of luck or can the driver be added?

BTW, the wireless loads fine on UNR (which I put in another partition on the same netbook).

Hello wiseguyh

I have just done some reading and it looks as though there is a problewm installinmg the driver to the kernel version of HSB or Puppy 412. I will do some more research and see if anybody managed to get it to work.

Sidders

Thanks for checking and for all you've done here.
I also don't have audio working. Any and all help would make my life easier and make my daughter happier. I really like your distro and would much rather use it than UNR if I can get sound and networking up.

I havnt found a way of getting the AR928X card working. So i have been busy putting together the same HSB on 431, which as a more up-to-date kernel ale to accomodate the card.
I just have to get the browser sorted Opera, Seamonkey? and with flash.

I will have it soon. Sorry for the delay.

It has been a while since I alpha-released my kiosk version, but the one thing that I could never figure out how to get to auto-start was the video. I have recently figured that out and posted it in the Pup'nGo thread... the only catch is that it I only figured out the Xvesa method so far and haven't tried the newer releases with Xvesa... Is Xvesa sufficiently acceptable with the new Gcompris to remove Xorg?

I will do some testing

I am missing the old wallpaper of the coyote. Is there any way to get it back? I can't seem to change the wallpaper at all.

Any news ... ?

I tried your Etoys, KDE, and hsb sfs with Lucid Puppy-5.0. I was pleasantly surprised, when converted to sfs4, they work well. A few of the programs do not run, and that's probably due to dependencies that are included in your main sfs file. It could be an easy update.

Please consider using it for your update rather that just stepping up to 431. My grandchildren really enjoy your OS.

Thanks,
Jim

Sorry folks, i have been involved with everythiong else apart from this. I am back now and will finish 431 this weekend.

Jim i will take you up on that suggestion. I did do something for 4.4CE along the same lines.

Great , the new 2.6.33.2 kernel is good. Since you've been working with 4.4CE which uses many of the features of zigbert's Stardust, you may want to add zigbert's DuDE-0.3 which is essentially an updated version of his Puppy Control Center and works really good with lupu-5.0.

Edit May 23: Lucid 5.01 will be out in a few days which has a few bug fixes. I'm using it to edit this post and most of your applications are working fine on it. Looking forward to your update.

Cheers,
Jim

Just about to upload hsb431 and have discovered a snag with bookmarking pages in the firefox 2.0.0.7. Will have it sorted soon i hope.
