Carolina - 1.3
wireless
YES!
carolina-firmware-fix-0.0.1-pemasu.pet
seems to solve the issue, Frisbee now populated.
Normal network wizard also working, and populating.
Default of ext4 on and old stick caused weird reboot errors of the save file. Redid with ext2 and reboot went well.
By the way, first time you reboot, and save file does not exits, the procedure runs, I think creates the directory, but does not actually reboot. It took a second reboot command to cause the save file to be created and rebooted. This might be normal for this puppy? I usually do not create savefiles as I run off the CD.

Re: wireless
Just for the record my hard drive is ext4. I did a fugal install and all is well at the moment.Minnesota wrote:YES!

Good to know that Carolina works with ext2 on a usb.

Also did anyone think of including the lightning plugin for thunderbird

Re: Carolina
Your implementation of the shutdown dialogue is excellent! I hope you keep it that way and not move to PupShutdown, which I admit to be better than the standard way in Puppy but is way too crowded for me. Likewise, I'm glad that you kept Control Panel instead of PupControl. PupControl is good but your Control Panel is better, for me.
While trying to add Trash to the panel, i found that it showed as a thin line and Trash could not be launched from there.
Thanks for Carolina.
It's my puppy of choice at the moment.

xfce Panel
Each page of Xfce Panel preferences have these black boxes. Are they supposed to look like this?

The shutdown dialogue will be staying, with the one in Saluki I had pressed the wrong button a number of times, this way there is less chance of doing that.
There are no plans to add PupShutdown or PupControl, yes radky has done a great job with these, but the Xfce Contol Panel is adequate.
I'll start hunting down the problem with the trash panel plugin.
@pemasu ,
Thank you again for your assistance, it definitely made the task easier.
I see your using hicolor what is the style in Appearance and Window Manager, I can't reproduce what you show, the closest I can get is using Gflat-graphite, yes it does look a little dark.Pete22 wrote:Each page of Xfce Panel preferences have these black boxes. Are they supposed to look like this?

EDIT: I'm guessing it's a incompatible gtk style for the panel, it does the same in Saluki.

Re: Carolina testing
Geoffrey is testing a new version of the pup-volume-monitor right now. The new version appears to have corrected that behavior. If it proves stable, it will be used in Carolina-002.peebee wrote:-I installed the kernel-source and devx sfs's onto a pfix=ram frugal install (no savefile) to compile and got 2 strange loop4 and loop5 devices on the desktop....
Re: Carolina
This has been fixed in patch-004. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.yerc1 wrote:While trying to add Trash to the panel, i found that it showed as a thin line and Trash could not be launched from there.
trash panel applet
Well, I've found a new bug with the trash panel applet. After installing patch-004, while you can add the plugin to the panel, and it does function correctly, upon rebooting (with savefile), it does not reappear. It isn't in the panel after reboot.
So until we get that sorted out, you may want to avoid using this particular panel plugin unless you want to have to add it after every reboot.

lightning plugin
Plugins are a personal preference kind of thing thing. This plugin is easy to install within Thunderbird. While this plugin may be valuable to many, our ISO is large enough without adding extras such as this.GoneSouth wrote:Also did anyone think of including the lightning plugin for thunderbird
Re: xfce Panel
Unfortunately, yes. Geoffrey and i have identified the following themes as problematic, either due to the "black box" effect, or because of disappearing right-click menu issues. The following themes will not be available on Carolina-002:Pete22 wrote:...have these black boxes. Are they supposed to look like this?
