@don570
Long time since using imagination, so to speak, last tried it in the Puppy 2x series . . . many thanks for putting that together . . .
Was able to export a couple of slideshows in flv this time, seems to be working fine so far Smile

@edoc
Gnash working sometimes is just the same as Flash, just another set of problems. Confused
Long term it is may be the better solution. Smile

Paul thanks for spending so much time supporting the Puppy chat channel. Smile

Xchat only works with Irc. Ayttm does seem to be working OK with the other instant message options it supports. Which is strange as IRC is the simplest format. Maybe contacting the developer with the Puppy problems . . .

The web irc solutions require a captcha each time we press chat. Not much fun if testing.

A possible solution is similar to the first time you click browse - offering various options.

There is some text chat code in PSIP and there may be other tiny clients (including command line versions which could be given a front end)

i want to know what is the best way to install compiz

I think mick01 was working on the feasibility of doing this - not sure if it happened and I know Wow got compiz working on a recent Puppy but not sure if it was Lucid . . . any news? Cool

PostPosted: Fri 08 Oct 2010, 04:17    Post subject: Need DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS-ubuntu-lucid file (5.1.1 Release)  
Where can i find file DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS-ubuntu-lucid (Lucid Puppy 5.1.1 Release)? I'm trying to create my own distro.

Running ./3builddistro I have message
Code:
WARNING, PKG DOES NOT EXIST: packages-lupu/linux_kernel-2.6.33.2-tickless_smp_patched-L3


To fix that i am trying to ./2createpackages only for for linux_kernel-2.6.33.2-tickless_smp_patched-L3 and getting as a result message
Code:
ERROR: 'linux_kernel-2.6.33.2-tickless_smp_patched-L3' PET package does not exist in packages-pet.


However, I see the linux-kernel pet-package placed in /packages-pet directory by my own eyes! More over I remove it twice with the same linux-kernel .pet-file downloading by hand from ftps.

How can I fix the problem!?

Playdayz posted it in this thread about 6-10 pages ago. Other specs also.

I think you dont have to fix it. Kernel will be included whatever the error message says. If you WANT to fix it, I think you have to ask it from Barry Kauler.

I used gfnrename in lucid puppy for the first time. I renamed 15 files, and it kept the extension .pdf, but when I looked at properties, it said file type was text. Xpdf won't open them. I had to re-scan 15 pages. ugh. Fix?

Woof wasn't downloading the kernel so I cheated and put it into packages-pet. Here is the kernel you need. Download and put it into packages-pet. Unless, you have already done that. If you have, it should build despite any error messages. Don't forget the Kernel tab before you build the distro.

This is the first official mention, but we have a plan for Lucid 5.2.

1. Tell us about IM clients--there is no point in having one that doesn't work correctly or fully. Similarly, Lucid 5.2 will probably have a fully functional Sylpheed 3.1.0b2--the latest version including Privacy Guard.

2. I am hopeful that compiz will be working with Lucid 5.2, especially if someone would like to take it on as a project.

Chat desktop activates ayttm

One possibility is to activate an html URL with javascript or Flash IRC client configured
for #puppychat
I am not familiar with the alternatives. maybe Paul or other IRC hounds are?

Python and pygtk. Pygtk is missing in lucid 5.1.1. The best thing is to compile pygtk and transfer the pygtk stuff to the right place in python folder structure or if you know, use compiling parameter to direct pygtk stuff straight to right place. I didnt know how to do that.

Well, I have compiled it several times, but I noticed that if I just copy from working lucid 5.1.1 version the python folders with pygtk, it was enough to get stream2ip (pygtk python app) working.

So I could make package of my python + pygtk and you could try it if I upload it to ftp server.
