(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

I am trying to get the Q Light Controller software running on Puppy Precise 5.4.3 and having no luck. It is available in a .deb file for ubuntu, appears to install just fine....but does not run at all.

Curious what I am missing here???? Or has anyone else had luck with this.....I am finding quite a few ubuntu programs that do not run on precise or require a lot of tweaking to get going. Thanks.....

KJacobs- which interface are you using? Run this from a console and dump the output:

I am using a Entec Open interface, however I cannot even get QLC to start. Here is the dump.....does this look like QT is missing????

Installing libqt4-core should take care and handle those loose ends. DO install..

If you manage, there's a note about Enttec widgets here under tips & tricks.

OK....i installed the libqt4-core and then tried to run QLC again......still no luck. Here is the new dump.....something is still missing, but its getting closer.

AHA! Now its working.....I installed the libqt4-gui and it came right up once everything was done. Thanks for the help getting this rolling. Now to see how it runs in puppy.........
