tronkel, Forgive my ignorance please. I have searched packages.ubuntu.com and the PPM with the Ubuntu repositories enabled for variations of 'gtk-dev' but can't find anything that appears to be the package you mentioned. Thanks.I suspect that the gtk-dev package plus its dependencies are missing in Lucid.
Lucid Puppy 5.1.1 Release - This is the official release
Sorry playdayz,
Got that info wrong. It looks as if the library you need is called libgtk2.0-dev and not gtk-dev as I mentioned before.
This info came from here originally and solved the Ubuntu problem.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Vala
All I did in Ubuntu was to select libgtk-2.0-dev for install and let Synaptic take care of the dependencies for that. It may well be though that you actually only need libgtk-2.0-dev.
Worth a try for starters.

Life is too short to spend it in front of a computer
Gortonc, dejan555, and pemasu. There is now an Instant Update 001 for Lucid Puppy 5.1.1. There was a problem with some modem scripts in Woof and this update rolls them back--I think they might have applied to Lucid Puppy 5.1.1 (as pemasu suggested). The update also includes some fixes for very new wifi chipsets. Thanks.Since I cannot connect with a pfix=ram installx of 511, am I out of luck? With the working wdialconfig from 510 copied to 511, clicking connect gives no such device ttyUSB0 error get the same for USB1 when I specify it Crying or Very sad

Hi everybody!
I have just a little answer, hoping it isn't a low newbie problem!
I installed Lupu 5.1 - frugal mode - few days ago, appying all the necessary settings.
All runs fine, but now I see there is a new version , 5.1.1 .
I'm happy for this, because it means it's plenty of life...
But, does anyone has suggestion for the best way to upgrade?
Should I re-install it again or maybe there is a less dramatic and simpler procedure?
Thanks a lot for any info about!

The upgrade will be automatic if you burn and boot the newest version, usually. I am very careful myself and I usually boot the new version with the parameter 'puppy pfix=ram' until I make sure that it has no problems. You can also make a new install of the later version and begin with it from scratch. To be most careful you can make a copy of the lupusave file before you upgrade--just in case.does anyone has suggestion for the best way to upgrade?
System requirement for 5.1.1
I am looking for system requirements for this Lucid Puppy. I just tried to start the live-cd and looked at kernel panic.
My very old hardware is 500MHz 256MB

Yes !!! Acer announced new BIOS version for my acer 5820TG laptop and now ACPI works straight. Battery status works and also other ACPI info. No need to compile kernel with patched acpi.ec module.
Well... hibernation is still something which needs added to kernel with Lupu. At least suspend works straight.

That is right on the edge. I run Lucid Puppy on my Pentium 3 800MHz Thinkpad with 256MB ram however. Kernel panic sometimes comes because of a bad copy on the CDrom. One of the Puppies that targets older hardware might be more conducive--say Wary.I am looking for system requirements for this Lucid Puppy.

tronkel, ValaIDE opened and ran for a bit with this pet (the same as the libgtk2.0-dev-2.20.0 deb file). Would you be able to test it with compiling? Thanks either way.All I did in Ubuntu was to select libgtk-2.0-dev for install and let Synaptic take care of the dependencies for that. It may well be though that you actually only need libgtk-2.0-dev.

BTW, PPM thought that I would need 50MB of dependencies to install libgtk2.0-dev....
Again I ask >> Tronkels >> Teamviewer pet
Can it be included in quickpets?

I cannot understand why it is not there.
A killer app to help people out.

5.1.1 breaks modem
Playdayz,
Thank you for the tip, but unfortunately nothing has changed. Reinstalled 5.1.1 pfix=ram, installed upgrade, reboot to create save file open pdial no modem found. Copy working wvdial.conf to /ect/ restart pdial and it correctly shows modem; click on it to confirm existence and am told no modem found. Oh well . . .
Grace & peace
Chris

Now, could you give us all an explanation of what it does and how
(or is this one everybody knows but me?)
And please remember that you can always get the latest index of the puppy-lucid repo in Puppy Package Manager on Lupu News http://diddywahdiddy.net/LupuNews/
If 5.1.1 gives you any trouble then by all means use 5.10 with the Instant Update 003. 5.10 is a very good version.Thank you for the tip, but unfortunately nothing has changed.

5.1.1 breaks modem
Yes, I am very happy with 5.10.003. I just need to get the hang of remastering so I can make a striped down version. Sounds like it should be easy - just use the remove built-ins.pet and the remaster tool in puppy control center, but the CD's I produce all go to kernel panic. I just keep plugging along. I really appreciate all you guys who have dedicated so much time to this project. Keep up the great work!

Good, I'll have a go at compiling and Valide with this pet later today and let you know how I get on.tronkel, ValaIDE opened and ran for a bit with this pet (the same as the libgtk2.0-dev-2.20.0 deb file). Would you be able to test it with compiling? Thanks either way.

OK, more on the saga of Vala compiling
Without making a meal of it, this is how I got Vala compiling to succeed in Lucid 511.
Installed Playdayz's pet from here:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... -lucid.pet
Then installed this file:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/i386/ ... v/download
At this stage still no Vala compile.
Then decided to use the latest devx from Wary 5 replacing the Lucid 511 devx.
Vala then compiled OK
Valide however is still broken. This may need a re-compile at least.
Anyway, it's now possible to use Vala in Lucid 511. Geany works OK as an IDE for Vala. Would be nice to get Valide working though.
Would be interesting to have a look inside the Wary 5 devx and see where the differences are between this devx and the Lucid 511 one.
