Hmmm, that is strange. Wary/Racy has a recompiled ffmpeg, but x11-grab was enabled.
Did it work with an earlier version of Wary/Racy?
Would you mind trying the older ffmpeg, get it from here:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_packages-wary5/ffmpeg-20111002-w5c.pet
The reason that I recompiled it, is that it had network support disabled, that someone wanted for Pmusic.

Thanks for that. I have fixed it in Woof:

I will upload Woof soon.

These test have been made from virtual console.
Launched from menu and alsawizard GUI
we need to change last line of /usr/sbin/alsawizard from
| Code: | | rxvt -geometry 60x3 -bg orange -e /usr/sbin/alsaconf |
to
| Code: | #rxvt -geometry 60x3 -bg orange -e /usr/sbin/alsaconf
urxvt -bg orange -e /usr/sbin/alsaconf |
|
This has been fixed in Woof, except that I had neglected to put in the "LANG=$MYLANG" prefix for translating "Yes" and "No".
Alsaconf uses Xdialog. I have left in "export LANG=C" for speed reason only. Last line of alsawizard does not need to be changed.

I have come across one problem however.
I use a boot floppy with grub4dos to boot all my puppies.
However I failed to create a boot floppy using Racy.

My work around was to create a boot floppy in Lucid 5.2.8 using the same floppy that failed in Racy.
I'm sure this is only of minority interest but I said I'd report it anyway.

Thanks for the report. grub4dos is shinobar's baby. Would you mind reporting the problem to him (Forum member 'shinobar'):

Noticed that this new version has slipped back to default of Seamonkey 2.5 from previous Racy version where it was 2.6 and was just wondering what the reason or advantage is? 2.5 seems to work well although the buzz seems to be towards 2.7 ??

Er, no, it is SM 2.6.1.

That is strange. This is the relevant code:

if [ $? -ne 0 ];then
INSERT0="<text use-markup=\"true\"><label>\"<b>`gettext \"Currently not connected to the Internet.

Can you do this in a terminal:
# ping -c 1 www.google.com
# echo $? |
In terminal.....
| Code: | # ping -c 1 www.google.com
ping: bad address 'www.google.com'

May be related or not, in pemasu's latest Exprimo release I've been experiencing wget problems.

EDIT:
Just tried to use wget to download Flash (as attempted in the linked Exprimo thread) and it fails in Wary as well.

Are you connected to the Internet through a proxy server?

I am confused. In your previous post you stated that the change to nsswitch.conf did not work. So, what other change did work?

Yes, there is something wrong, I have been trying to reproduce this in a similiar way.
racy 5.2.90 pfix=ram
chosen LANG: de_DE (without utf8)
saved to a new save file called racysave-de_DE.2fs
then reboot
and chosen racysave-de_DE.2fs
# cat /proc/cmdline
video=640x480 root=/dev/sda3 ro vga=normal pdev1=sda3
#
# echo $LANG
de_DE.UTF-8
#
repeated chooselocale (de_DE) several times
My observation:
change to non-UTF-8 does not get permanent
I don´t think this is specific to German.
Other languages, please test: changing to/from utf-8
Hope this will help locating the bug

InkspaceLite offers two print buttons. As soon as you try the 'Print...' button you will crash InkspaceLite. If you use the 'Print Direct...' button everything works fine - as well as CUPS-PDF printing. (See picture)
I put some graphic together  and looked at xerrs.log afterwards.
Don't like those error messages. (See pictures) |
Yeah, Inkscapelite can be compiled with or without support for gnome-print. Gnome-print is an older system of printing, but it is now broken.
So, I have changed Wary/Racy to using Inkscapelite compiled without gnome-print. So the menu will have the "Print direct" only.

If you like to save the text you don't know which button to click.
There is no 'Yes'/'No' readable. Buttons lower parts are cut.

I just tested xclipboard, it works for me.

What is "Puppy-Setup"?
It is easy to set UTF-8. Just rerun QuickSetup. Various ways to do this, for example, it is in the Setup menu.

That's alright. The script then uses 'lspci', which does the job.

Although xclipboard is working fine for me in Racy, I got the new XClipboard and it seems to make no difference.
Anyway, I have updated /etc/X11/app-defaults/XClipboard in the Wary/Racy PETs, also in the 'xorg_base' template in Woof, for the sake of other builds (Slacko, Precise ...).
