Darkcity. Polarpup has the qt4 development stuff up to opengl and phonon-gstreamer...fair complete.
They are in devx sfs. But...I think you will need a little better exporting first.

Install the attached pet and and then in console: "source /etc/profile.d/qt4"

My previous version has not been definitive enough....for all qt4 application compiling. Some environments has not been able to find the right location.

Installing lucid qt4 is somewhat funny....when you have already full qt4 environment in distro. It just needs to be defined better.

Pemasu I am just too dense to get it so I ask.
You don't have to answer but the title is
Polarpup-005 with Qt4-4.8.0 and Gstreamer libs inbuild

I remember vaguely that you had Polarpup 15 or even later versions?
So is it something special with Polarpup-005
that let it work with Qt4-4.8.0 and Gstreamer libs and the later versions
being different?

As I remember Polarpup-005 had Lupu 513 as base and later versions
most likely where Lupu 525? or even 528? Or is it about what kernel
them use? No big deal just me curious. If it is a too heavy bad derail
then ignore it

Edit Much appreciated. sorry my poor memory mixed them up.
So Snow where up to snow 15 or beyond while Polarpup current version
are at polarpup 5 okay.

Nope. You mix the Ice Puppy, Snow Puppy and Polarpup versions. I havent retrograded Polarpup. 005 is the latest in this saga.

There isnt anything special in Polarpup. Just compiled the kernel, used the latest woof of that time, compiled and included full Qt4.

I have stepped out of Lucid Puppy development before 5.2 version. Playdayz stopped using woof upgrades and started to use some maverick libs and bins. So...you couldnt build Lucid Puppy anymore from net repo. I had to step out. I have had always pure Ubuntu Lucid Puppy...no upgraded libs or bins...only those which I have compiled in Polarpup or in my other Lucid Puplets.

So...My Lucid builds havent followed fully Playdayz work. But....I have followed the update processes keenly and I have picked up useful stuff all the time. So my builds have in big percent flavour of Lucid Puppies. Well....wm`s are JWM and Icewm...not openbox.

Master_wrong. I dont know. Using ffmpeg for video decoding is something I havent much done. Usually I use ffmpeg for conversion or for music listening with Pmusic.
It is experimenting now with Bino.

I can upload my compiled Bino....if you want to test it.

Not sure how working this compile is...or does it work with other ffmpeg version....but since I compiled it as test.....here you go...
I am sure you will need to install some missing libs...so launch it in console and start hunting.
libass...libopenal...libenca...maybe something else.

It can be that my compile is just not working one. The error message I get, when I googled suggests that the bino compile might be non-working and it is not due to incompatible ffmpeg at all.

:D

Thanks, Pemasu.

EDIT :
i run your compiled bino on 528, with libQT files (60 files) taken... i mean borrowed from other installed linux...

but then again, i failed to run windows-version-of-bino on my computer too... with same error

maybe hardware problem?

Do you have /usr/lib/dri stuff installed ? If I remember right it is called libgl1-mesa-dri in debian. Lucid Puppy and dpup exprimo has packaged it as xorg_high. If not....Install the opengl dri package with some of above names and run xorgwizard of your driver and restart X.

Hi pemasu,

Check Qtractor compile and it recognises Qt with the redefinition PET - thanks.

---

On a different note-

Polarpup has the F11 fullscreen bug with firefox - you can't exit fullscreen.

this can be cleared up with-
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_pa ... 05-w5c.pet
more info

finally, made page for Polar pup on Wiki-

Oh yes...jwm bug can be fixed with that or update to the newer jwm-574.

Good to hear that you got it working. I know the feeling when you have worked hard for a goal and you manage in your aim.

And nice wiki page also. Thank you of that.

Hi pemasu:
I recently had to reinstall polarpop 005. Everything went ok. Except, now when I close the laptop lid, suspend does not function. It functions well from shutdown menu though. It used to work on my previous install. I did reformat the same partition where I had it installed before. It was a frugal and still is a frugal install on my Thinkpad R60.
Could you advise please?

Could you post the /etc/acpi/sleep.sh script content.

Here it is :
#!/bin/bash

[ -e /tmp/suspend ] && exit
touch /tmp/suspend

sleep .2

PID=`ps -e |grep "sleep.sh$" |sort -n|head -n 1|cut -f1 -d\ `
[ $$ != $PID ] && exit


which acpitool
if [[ $? != 0 ]] ;then
notify-send "You Need to Install Acpitool to Enable Suspend" -u critical -i dialog-error
else
notify-send "Suspending to RAM" -i xscreensaver
/usr/local/Frisbee/disconnect
rfkill unblock all
acpitool -s
sleep 2
acpitool -a |grep on-line
if [[ $? == 0 ]] ; then
/etc/acpi/performance.sh
else
/etc/acpi/powersave.sh
fi

sleep 2
/usr/local/Frisbee/connect


fi


rm /tmp/suspend

I believe it is that notify-send which gives hiccup. So try this version which is without it. Just replace the code with the code below and try....

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

[ -e /tmp/suspend ] && exit
touch /tmp/suspend

sleep .2

# do not suspend at shutdown proccess
PS=$(ps)
echo "$PS"| grep -q "sh[ ].*poweroff" && exit

PID=`ps -e |grep "sleep.sh$" |sort -n|head -n 1|cut -f1 -d\ ` 
[ $$ != $PID ] && exit

        /usr/local/Frisbee/disconnect
        rfkill unblock all
        acpitool -s
        sleep 2
        acpitool -a |grep on-line
        if [[ $? == 0 ]] ; then
                /etc/acpi/performance.sh
        else
                /etc/acpi/powersave.sh
        fi
    sleep 2        
        /usr/local/Frisbee/connect
        
rm /tmp/suspend

And here is my previously created fixed package. I suppose it is still valid. This pet replaces those /etc/acpi files which needs to be replaced.

Pemasu:
Thanks! It now works OK. However, on resume, although Frisbee connection establishes, the Frisbee icon on the system try remains as non-connected. That is two monitors icon instead of a circle. This will switch to a circle by just clicking on the Frisbee icon, and exiting the ensuing Frisbee dialogue box.
