Grafpup-102rc1

#1 Post by Nathan F »

I've just finished uploading a release candidate for Grafpup-102 to the server. Lots to love about it, downright cuddly really.
  • Gimp-2.2.10 with extensions for CMYK and RAW images (plus a few other extensions)
    Scribus-1.2.4
    Inkscape-0.43
    DCRAW conversion utility
    IceMC menu editor
    Firewire support
    Bluefish and Cinepaint re-compiled from within Puppy/Grafpup for better stability
    Sorry, Xorg not included. Can be installed as a Pupget and it works fine.
Still one or two issues to work out so if you want everything perfect wait a week or so and It'll be more polished. Also a few exciting developments on the horizon, such as video editing and multi-track audio recording (via Pupget). Visit the news blog at http://grafpup.com/news/ for more details.

this for the second time is the md5sum I am getting
a9f9c650ea153e354d2f082f967aaabb

which is different to what you have on your site :?

Is anyone else able to download and run? I do not usually have difficulties - maybe I will download with Opera which is more reliable . . .

Problem

#10 Post by raffy »

My copy (downloaded 48 hours ago) failed to complete the boot. However, I have downloaded Empty Crust the same time and it's working fine. Pup101 is already there but the boot complained of file errors...

Okay, sorry about the confusion Lobster. The md5 I posted was for the current version I was working on. I've actually just uploaded rc2 and the md5 should be correct now. Not sure where the problem with booting lies yet but I've got it running fine from a pendrive right now.

One problem is that I've got no burner on the computer I'm using right now. I cheated my way to testing it by installing it to my usb stick manually, but if everyone is having boot errors then maybe something is wrong in the rc.sysinit script. I can't check into it until I get home Saturday night unfortunately, and I'm sorry if I unleashed something non-functional on all of you. I will go in and take a look to see if I can find where an error might lie.

Finally got rc2 to boot - nearly (had a faulty disk)
the ISO md5sum is now correct
It boots as far as a prompt which goes something like this:

Code: Select all

readlink:
cat: usr/local/bin/defaultbrowser :no such file or directory
cat: usr/local/bin/defaultdraw :no such file or directory
cat: usr/local/bin/defaulthtmleditor :no such file or directory

cat: usr/local/bin/defaultspreadsheet :no such file or directory
cat: usr/local/bin/defaulttexteditor :no such file or directory

I downloaded Grafpup-102rc1 today, started it from hard disk using Grub from Win98SE, created new pup101 file and everything works fine.

I downloaded iso file from:
http://grafpup.com/download/iso_images/ ... 0.2rc2.iso

Lobster-
Very interesting as they do in fact exist. Do you get any errors about usr_cram not mounting?

do not remember those messages - just deleted pup101 and user-cram.sfs (the Puppy1.0.7 one) in case they were interfering but no luck :(

there was a message about X missing (from usr/x11-6/) sorry that is not quite right - more testers needed . . .

I've just downloaded and installed as a frugal install (straight from .iso) and everything works ok as far as I can tell.

IMHO these would be better icons for the desktop (taken from pizzapup and puppy 1.0.7) That's the only "rough-edge" I can see.

Nice work

Chris

I seem to have a pretty serious bandwidth spike since the recent distrowatch article about Grafpup. The domain grafpup.com transferred over twelve gigs just yesterday and the trend has continued this morning. Needless to say, this is a bit of a problem as I'm already nearing the limit for February and it's only the third of the month. Any and all suggestions or other help would be greatly appreciated. I do thank all those who have already mirrored files for me as that has surely helped out a great deal.

dijjer & other

#20 Post by klhkentucky »

GuestToo mentioned using dijjer before. http://dijjer.org/
Description = Bandwidth is a problem for anyone hosting big files. As soon as your music, mp3 blog, or movie gets too popular, either your site goes down or you get hit with a huge bandwidth bill. Worse, the cost and hassle of distributing large media files means that the internet isn't living up to its potential as a democratic medium. Dijjer solves this problem. What distinguishes it from similar P2P tools (like Bittorrent) is how easy it is to use for publishers and users. You don't need to install anything. Just put a file on your site as you normally do, but add "http://www.dijjer.org/get/" to the beginning of your links:

normal link: http://mysite.com/video.mov
dijjer link: http://dijjer.org/get/http://mysite.com/video.mov
