PostPosted: Sat 14 Apr 2012, 19:24    Post subject:  How do I get gtkhash to run in 18 so I can check 19?  
I'm having a hard time today.

I am so excited to try 19 with all the new bling!!!!

However, I wanted to start out right by checking the md5 with gtkhash.

I know gtkhash is installed in Saluki.

But:
I do not see it in the control panel.
I don't see it in "run a program".
I don't see it on any of the regular menus.
I don't see it on right click when I click on the iso.

When I search for gtkhash, I find it. , Smile
But none of the files will start the program. Crying or Very sad

Could someone please take me by the hand and show me how, or where, or what to do,
or tell me another way to check the md5 that is not tooo geeky?

Many thanks for your patience.

tried to upgrade from 018 to 019 and also tried a fresh install by wiping my drive, but something does not load on boot and i cannot automatically log in. Saluki is the only OS on my laptop. md5sum of 019 was OK.

After the install, all is well and the desktop runs as normal, but when I reboot I am taken to a screen that says automatic login, etc but I am at #. When I type startxfce4 it takes me to the desktop but the screen freezes. Possibly my older hardware, ThinkPad R51 ?

Geoffrey,
thank you for the picture. Under the 4th tab, I could have missed that.

Humm, something IS wrong. When I press properties,
This is what I get this instead.

I wonder why mine is different.

Pete.

It's different because you are running ROX, which is probably not recommended.

I'm not sure why you are getting dumped to the console, but the proper command is 'xwin' not 'startxfce4'.

Really nice experience so far .

Many many new things to explore like adrv.sfs ...

Whow !

One thing for pgprs-setup :

Without the standard connect button not easy to find Laughing

[Don't actually know why it is hidden and pupdial so much propagated .]

Funny theme and a stylish background fitting to that , I like it .

Woof is apparently not the newest, pgprs-setup is missing the gettext's

This is some code to add a PUK line to pgprs-setup :

Code:
> RGPIN="AT+CPIN=\"$PIN\""
> if [ "`echo "$PIN" |grep ','`" ];then
> PUK=`echo "$PIN" |cut -f1 -d','`
> PIN=`echo "$PIN" |cut -f1 -d','`
> sed -i "s/$RGPIN/AT+CPIN=\"$PIN\"" /etc/ppp/peers/pgprs-connect-chatmm
> fi
> [ "$PUK" ] || PUK="\"\""
77a78


This is to filter devices not attached to modems ie USB to SERIAL adapters :

Code:
> DMESG=`dmesg`
81c82
< for DEVICE in /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/usb/ttyUSB0 /dev/ircomm0 /dev/ttyUB0 /dev/rfcomm0 /dev/ttyS0
---
> for DEVICE in /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/ttyUSB1 /dev/usb/ttyUSB0 /dev/ircomm0 /dev/ttyUB0 /dev/rfcomm0 /dev/ttyS0
85a87
>    if [ "`echo "$DMESG" |grep "${DEVICE##*/}" |grep -i -E 'GSM|modem'`" ];then   
87a90
>    fi


Code:
>     <text tooltip-text=\"Only needed if need to unlock SIM card\">
>       <label>Phone PUK:</label>
>     </text>
>     <entry>
>       <default>${PUK}</default>
>       <variable>PUK</variable>
>     </entry>
>   </hbox>

164c178

Code:

209a225,227
>    else
>    wordreplace /etc/ppp/peers/gprs-connect-chatmm "$RGPIN" "AT+CPIN=\"${PUK},${PIN}\""
>    fi
211c229,233


and this is to stop the pupmessage always popping up :

Code:
<    xmessage -center -title "$(gettext 'PGPRS SETUP')" "$(gettext "Connect to the Internet using 'PGPRS Connect' in the 'Network' menu.")"
---
>    if [ -f "`which pgprs-shell`" ];then
>    if [ -x "`which pgprs-shell`" ];then
>    chmod a-x "`which pgprs-shell`"
>    xmessage -center -title "PGPRS SETUP" "Connect to the Internet using 'PGPRS Connect' in the 'Network' menu."
>    fi;fi


*

One problem with pupdial seems to be the entry
"ABORT ERROR"
in /etc/ppp/chat-script .

Unblocking the SIM and failing to connect mostly works at second attempt, but unblocking the SIM a second time always gives ERROR and the connection can only be tried again if the eeepc internal modem is reset by reboot,poweroff or suspend (to ram) . pgprs-connect also shows the ERROR message but has no "ABORT ERROR" in /etc/ppp/peers/gprs-connect-chatmmm .

*

Saluki performance overall is little slower but vacation for the mind !
Great piece of work , jemimah !

*

[by the way anyone knows how the trash bin can be placed outside the desktop ?]


Hmm, no one has mentioned pgrps since I got rid of the connect icon in like saluki-004. It must not be terribly popular.

Saluki is synced with Racy 5.2. I will try to sync it with 5.3 for the second release, but it's going to be a pain since everything is so different now my patches need to be applied manually.

If you make your patches with 'diff -u' it's easier for me to figure out. Better yet, send me the whole patched script and I'll add it to the next release.

There's a trashbin for the panel. Then you can turn of the desktop trash in the desktop settings.

Oohhh, I see. Finally found in thunar!

Even more interesting.

The MD5 did not match. So I am glad I persisted.
I will download it again.

On gtkhash, it showed me the number,
but I had to manually check it with the md5.txt.

I thought if the md5.txt file was in the same directory,
it would automatically check it for me.
Is that wrong?

Dont forget kernel source sfs from the first page so...that you can compile kernel module drivers also.... Very Happy Very Happy


Hi Jemimah / Pemasu

I think the kernel sources link has gone missing from the front page.....is it k3.2.8-preemptive-fixed-aufs of 12 March?? There are other earlier k3.2.8-preemptives still there....

Thanks
peebee

BUG, 19, frugal install. Sound re-sets to default setting at re-boot, personalised settings are not persistent.

I think the /etc/init.d/10alsa on Saluki-19 is outdated.
The woof-120226 has recent one, but i have another which is based on the Japanese versions.
Code:
# 7dec2011 shinobar: wait loading modules, conditional saving asound.state (merged form the Quickset Wary, wary-511-01q)
#111210 shinobar: refresh asound.state at restart
#120103 karl godt: fix unloading modules. refer: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=71767&start=390
#120222 revert 111229. 120223 shinobar: better fix.
#120226 01micko: added 'Master Front' entries. 120318 bumped it up, 75% to 100%.

Partition alphabetical order is not right in Saluki...which is not so apparent due to missing drive icons.
But I believe the /sbin/probepart is about same in Saluki since I use Jemimah's patched version.
