When i run htop in lupu511 or lupu520 The results are the same , the Kernel is the same in lupu511 as in lupu520. The kernel in Quirky 1.4 is 2.6.31.14, neither of the Lucids has the menu working correctly.

thanks duke

This is when I go to change around desktop icons mate? If I should move them around the screen, or even delete some in favour of others - and then reboot - they'll be back, oft-times in their same places which will cause a real jumble upon the desktop space, see what I mean? Sometimes it'll remain fine for one or two reboots, then hit me on the 3rd or 4th. Sometimes as soon as the next. It's not predictable in other words.

To correct this problem, arrange your icons like you want them, then goto /Choices/ROX-Filer and copy PuppyPin to PuppyPinMy. Then when you add an sfs or do anything else that changes the desktop simply copy PuppyPinMy to PuppyPin and restart X to restore your desktop.

Make a new entry in menu.lst for the new version.


I have been using Grub4dos as my only boot loader. Any time I add or remove an installed version of Puppy Linux, I run Grub4dos config. It auto finds what changes I have made and sets up the boot menu to reflect those changes. No more manual input required. It has detected every change with 100% correct results. Believe me, I have done some crazy changes to the installs of Puppy Linux while testing for Lucid 5.2.

Warning about updating/upgrading frugal installs.

It has problems trying to use an older version save file with a newer version of Puppy Linux. It will update the save file, but not to 100% with no problems. Your mileage will very. Anything may happen. It is a known problem that Barry hopes to correct soon.

it doesn't work 100% but the tests I did were definitely useful--one might have to reinstall a program, change the desktop, some icons might get lost--but my tests did end up functional.

I am unable to mount any jfs drives with 5.2.

5.1.1 worked as a charm, was the support for jfs dropped in 5.2?

If I do a upgrade from 5.1.1 then it is working.

e2fsprogs was rolled back for older machines, try the one in Lucid Puppy News (link in the first post or from Quickpet)

Cheers

I have tried e2fsprogs-1.41.14-w5-20101224.pet and e2fsprogs_new-1.41.14-w5-20101224.pet found in the ibiblios lucid pets.

No change, jfs mount still not working, pmount(started from the terminal) sais:
"mount: unknown filesystem type 'jfs'"

So i guess something else cause this or I did not find the right version?

I am new, so here is a newbie question, is there a complete list of changes or packages that are in 5.2 and 5.1.1?

Regards

w00t, finally a simple calculator with a thousands seperator came with Puppy Very Happy Before, there was this scientific unnecessarily huge calculator to calculate 15x23 Razz Of course, the added .RAR support is very neat too!

I agree, this is the best Puppy Linux to date, there are lots new features and updates and I have yet to discover lots of them.

Keep up the good work guys!

your probably talking about the hacked gcalctool calculator, Yes that's my favorite also, I really like the advanced features, 3 calc's in one, I first hacked that early last year to work on 2.14X, and since lucid had gconf, It only made since to compile it for 5 series Smile, I also never liked any of the default calculators.

I have been checking the previous betas and looks like from luci-243 to luci 244 something has changed.
All the versions below 243(240,241,242) did mount jfs OK.
luci-244 reported an error when mounting jfs, so my guess would be something was changed or broken in this transition.

Hello guys,
I am a chinese user,I had use LUPU for some times,and i met some troble.

There is many difference betwin Old release puppy and Lupu,
At the old puppy,It can support chinese locale well.But in the Lupu,When the chinese strings in the ANSI documents it allways show me garbled.
and when I use wireless ,the chinese ESSID just only show me a UTF-8 code..

When I was boot Lupu at first time,the xorgwizard haven't shows,and just take me to the black screen,so I reboot,and at the time when it was going to the 'black screen' I press Ctrl+C to abort ,and run xorgwizard to use vesa mode,my netbook used Atom N270 with intel g945 chipset,I can use probe mode at the old release puppy,but Lupu.

The Lupu is great,It has so more wonderful functions then the old release puppy,But itis BUG also more too,I think...


I had hoped others that know more should give you advice.

I also have a computer that use n270 and intel 945. I use Fluppy and Snow Puppy on it.

I suggest you do test if these behave better. Fluppy 010 you can find here
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=56156

and Snow Puppy here
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=483927

These both have drivers that hopefully work better on your computer.

Jemimah is Developer for Fluppy.

But about the Chinese maybe Shinobar can help he encourage all to make Local Language support for Puppy. And he is from Japan so he maybe have knowledge on what you ask.
Thank you dear nooby,I have to use quirky1.4 this days.next time I will try the Japanese Vertion,and hope it fixed.Now all the Chinese user use leafpad to open the documents,because of the Bug I told...
I dont like to use the leafpad because I haven't used it before so maybe the old quirky is shut the more.I was so sad with we could not play lupu as well...

1) Unable to remasterCD. I've made it many times before with other puppies so I am not doing anything else here. The problem is :
Lucid build a Lucid.sfs in size about 23 mb !!!! So there is missing something I gues. I am also:

I was able to remaster a largish Lucid Puppy--Perhaps you did not have enough spare room on the disk that you used to remaster.

Also I have been able to burn consistently--but we will watch this.

Hello!!!

I have a question about autostart of xfce after remastering. Usually to start automatically xfce I need to change the entrance in .xinitrc at the end exec
and /etc/windowmanager to startxfce4. But after it Lucid wont start xfce automatically? I sthere something new? Did I miss something?
