Hello! i'm new to Puppy and really liking it. I found out about this OS while searching for (PCLOS) linux drivers for my Linex USB transmitter. I've tried to get this going, per the instructions here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=67085&sid=d82af07a4e106605bb5ff1c70ce5d91f ...but installing xmms isn't panning out. I installed the dotpuphandler first, then "puppybasic" per the package handler. I then had it install xmms. When I click on XMMS, nothing happens. When I type xmms at the console, I get the following: Error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory. Not sure what to do from here. Can anyone please help? I'd really like to get this transmitter working! |

XMMS requires GTK 1 to be installed, I believe, which most recent Puppy versions don't have (they have GTK 2). There should also be at least one or more .pet/.pup installers for GTK 1 somewhere on the forum; use this search page to search the forum for them. _________________ [ Puppy 4.3.1 JP, Frugal install | 1GB RAM | 1.3GB swap ] * My Pidgin Builds for Puppy 4.3.1 In memory of our beloved American Eskimo puppy (1995-2010) and black Lab puppy (1997-2011). |

thank you! I found a .pup file, but it failed to install. Something about a file missing... However I did find a tar file. I'll give it a look and do some searching on how to install this. It has been a few years. |

Weird. The search page I linked to isn't working for me, today, for some reason. 
I found a .pet for GTK 1.2 on the forum with a normal Google search: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=438861#438861. Maybe that one will work. _________________ [ Puppy 4.3.1 JP, Frugal install | 1GB RAM | 1.3GB swap ] * My Pidgin Builds for Puppy 4.3.1 In memory of our beloved American Eskimo puppy (1995-2010) and black Lab puppy (1997-2011). |

THANK YOU! xmms is now properly installed. I did a "modprobe snd-usb-audio" and it is reporting that modprobe.conf is deprecated. Something else to work on.... Thanks again! |

Great! it's working...after a fashion! much further along than with any other distro to date. Two issues yet, which I'll look into, one of which has to do with getting a pls file stream to work in xmms. This was easy in PCLINUXOS but must need to change a setting here... the other has to do with getting the volume control back on my task bar...it disappeared for some reason! Again, thanks....! |
