Re: Carolina
It might be worth trying a program called rufus (Windows) to transfer your Carolina iso to USB stick. It works well and fast. Then when you boot the Mac with rEFIt Carolina will boot from the Penguin (Linux) Icon.einar wrote:Ive got reeit installed, and now i am confused.

I managed to install ubuntu once. but lost the flash drive and i cant find the how to. And anyways i will mutch rather install Carolina than Ubuntu.
thanks

I know nothing about Macs & and I am only just getting into Linux but this method works fine every time on my brothers MacBookPro.
I hope this helps
Thanks
Just saw carolina project yesterday. Today I tried it. Wow all the things i try to get toe work in puppy are there already except inkscape and gimp. I was amazed to see a gui for grub4dos. (That may be my newbie level of knowledge) I started using puppy about 4 months ago using manna puppy. Been waiting to see the precise version so I can try to input Thai and KOREAN LANGUAGES. Sorry my 6 yr old wants daddy. But I am very impressed and pleased - now lets see if I can get asian languages supported.
Will any precise pet work as wel? do precise built pets only work with percise puppy? I figured out slacko does not or I am doing somethign wrong.
ok MY LITTLE ONE CANT WAIT
wONT TRADE IN BEING A DADDY jUST ONCE IN A WHILE WANT TO ESCAPE.
Sorry about capitls no time to fix

Re: Thanks
There is inkscape-0.48.0-w5, inkscapelite-0.36.3-w5 and gimp-2.7.1-w5 in the PPM, just type them in the search bar of the PPM and click Find Pets, gimp-2.7.1-1-w5.sfs is in the sfs downloads.loyal wrote:Just saw carolina project yesterday.

Re: python: import gtk error
Out of curiosity I tried python2.7.2-i486.pet, numpy-1.6.1.pet and mypaint-1.0.0.pet in gray's Precise NOP 5.4.1, it worked.charlie6 wrote:Hi,

It's not really a good idea to mix these packages, what works for one may break another.

Downloaded 002 and 003 delta files, upgraded 001 to 002 then 002 to 003. Md5 checks out, ready to go!
No issues so far except the same problem as Linalite, no thumbnails. Hope you can sort this out for 004.
Nice job though, thanks!

Hi Guys:
I have a question, I want to force Carolina to ask for user name and password at bootup. I did this on lucid and couple of other puppies by deleting the word"--autologin" from the inittab file located in etc directory. I also did this in carolina, but not worked for me as I restarted my system, its hangs in bootup. I was using FRUGAL Installation.
Any Idea?

Create a empty adrv_lina_003.sfs using dir2sfs, it will give an error but should boot.yr1945 wrote:just a quick question... how can i get Carolina to boot to GUI without an Adrive? THANKS...

Actually, with Carolina-002 doing this will work as Geoffrey has suggested (ignore the error messages), but not with 003, as Xfce-4.10 is part of the adrive. What will more than likely happen in 003 is that you get X to display and then lock-up. If you're looking for a minimal adrive I would have to suggest using 'lina-lite, as the adrive in that release only uses the minimal things necessary to get the Xfce desktop running.Geoffrey wrote:Create a empty adrv_lina_003.sfs using dir2sfs, it will give an error but should boot.yr1945 wrote:just a quick question... how can i get Carolina to boot to GUI without an Adrive?

carolina oo3 fix
I've been playing with the carolina builder again... I had some successful builds
I also rebuilt the carolina 003 iso so that the missing desktop notifications are working by default, it also fixed the sensors plugin issue I had, and the missing notification settings on the control panel. working again all out of the box
I also managed to enable thumbnails in thunar but I did this with my personal ISO build... I can't remember what I did to get back the thumbnails... I have weak wifi signal right now... I'll try to figure out things... and maybe upload my ISO later
I'll be back

I've just tried Carolina 001 and I was impressed; it looks good and works well. I look forward to testing 003 soon.

After some messing around I figured out why thumbnails weren't shown in Thunar. There was a missing cache plugin symlink in /usr/lib/tumbler-1/plugins/cache.
I've made a pet to add it or just dl the tar.gz and add it manually.

Elroy & Geoffrey......
THANK YOU for the feedback... as you suggested, I am now using "lina-lite"...
Because I use very few apps... I always go for the smallest puppy OS... and, for some reason... keep trying to make them even smaller (LOL)...
Anyway, Carolina and lina-lite are excellent distros... keep up the great work...
