Hi All,

Does chmod work in wary 530?

Code: Select all

/mnt/sda5#mkdir pp
/mnt/sda5#ls -ltr
total 5627664
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root       8192 2012-11-12 00:36 pp
/mnt/sda5#chmod -v 777 pp
mode of `pp' changed to 0777 (rwxrwxrwx)
/mnt/sda5#ls -ltr
total 5627664
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root       8192 2012-11-12 00:36 pp
/mnt/sda5#
Also found chown not working. I had tried to do chown spot:spot to a directory, but failed!

Please help.

Sincerely,

With what filesystem is your sda5 formatted - ext, fat32, ntfs?

Yes, you say in another thread that your sda5 is fat filesystem. That will be the problem here.

Black desktop?

#200 Post by Gonzalo_VC »

Friends,
my Wary 5.3 installation is getting crazy: the desktop becomes all black (no icons, no wallpaper). Why is that? Is is Xorg?? Should I save a session when it's all visible? Otherwise I have to click here and there to make it all come back :-/

Firefox 18.0 and Wary 5.3

#203 Post by watchdog »

Firefox 18.0 released. Not working in wary 5.3 and 5.3.92. "Undefined symbol" in libxpcom which come with firefox directory: "Coldn't load XPCOM". The previous version Firefox 17.0.1 works fine in Wary 5.3 and Wary 5.3.92. I made some attempts to solve the problem with no success. Any ideas?

UPDATE: I have found the way of using Firefox 18.0 in wary 5.3 (probably wary 5.3.92, too). See:

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=66373

Install in your wary libc6_2.11.3-4_i386.deb from Debian packages repository. It will work to get a working Firefox 18.0 in Wary. Google-talkplugin always working with old version 2.1.7.0.

Racy resize savefile malfunction probably caused by missing gxmessage which BK forgot to include in some builds. See http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02695

No point in requesting fixes to Racy because sadly BK has abandoned it. :(

I believe I included gxmessage in my right click menu additions package

You can install in Racy and check by typing in terminal

Code: Select all

gxmessage  "Hello"
Note: Package should work in Racy since it is checked in Wary

GnomeMPLAYER et XVIDCAP libdbus-1.so.3

#209 Post by Pelo »

To have GnomeMplayer and XVIDCAP running with Racy, libdbus-1.so.3 is missing in usr/lib. Use instead -1.3.5.8 and 1.3.4.0 with a symbolic link (Precise config)

sfs load on the fly : koffice 1.6.3.sfs

#210 Post by Pelo »

symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libX11.so.6: undefined symbol: xcb_take_socket
K-Office-1.6.3.sfs: 47 M works well on quite all puppies excepted my Racy 5.3 ! does any body know what the error message mean ?
/usr/lib/libX11.so.6 well here...
Racy 5.3 remains one of the major puppies, in my opinion, with its kernel 3.0.25.

Where are War and Racy 5.3

#211 Post by tuxtoo »

I can find Wary and Racy 5.3 Barebones but does anyone know why full size versions have disappeared. No sign of them on the ibiblio and nlugg or anywhere else for that matter. Why?

Am I missing something? I also went looking for Wary 5.3 at BK's site and couldn't find it.
