"save to folder" (savefolder) presented by @Gyro

#32 Post by gcmartin »

Not speaking for @Gyro, but, he did find some anomalies in save to folder efforts and provided some corrections.

His work did not make it into WOOFCE in time for this version generation. Hence the resolutions are being provided by him. They can only be gotten via the links he provides for the replacements to the ISO files that are shipped for TahrPUP6. I believe his offers merely corrects "save to folder" processing without making changes to the base TahrPUP6 system.

Hope this is accurate for the help he is trying to provide.

Re: savefolder using symbolic links

If not, could you provide some details? How does it differ from an "ordinary" savefolder? How do you set up the symbolic links? To what? What are its potential advantages?
Yes, http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=95922.
Instead of using a 'mount -o bind' command to make the actual directory containing the savefolder appear at '/initrd/pup_rw', it uses a symbolic link.
Both methods break some existing code because old assumptions become false. The list of broken programs for the 'symbolic link' method is a bit shorter, and they are very specific to puppy. So hopefully it's less likely to bite us in the future.
It's been ported to a few puppies now. The intention of my post was to announce the availability of a port for TahrPup 6.0.
The 'initrd.gz' is a normal TahrPup 6.0 'initrd.gz' but with a patched 'init' script. The 'ydrv_tahr_6.0.sfs' contains patched versions of a few puppy programs to support this implementation.

Guys, yes, I announced Tahrpup 6.0 as an official Puppy, after receiving recommendation from 01micko, see my blog:

http://bkhome.org/news/?viewDetailed=00097

...but, note, I have just now edited it.

I had informed Ladislav, the top guy at distrowatch.com, and he replied that he is concerned about the naming of Tahpup, as it is now an official Puppy Linux. So I reworded the heading in my blog as "Puppy Linux 6.0, "Tahrpup" released"

You will notice how Ladislav names each Puppy:
http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=puppy

...you see, he wants a nice consistent naming "Puppy Linux 5.6", "Puppy Linux 5.7", etc.

He thinks that this will avoid confusion.

I have also added some comment in my blog to explain difference from the "Slacko edition".

Hmmm, to keep Ladislav happy, perhaps the next Slacko edition should have a later version number, say "Puppy Linux 6.1, "Slacko" edition"

Anyway, in this Forum thread you can continue to name this pup anyway you want!

Thanks for them, i too compile xfce using lfs, however my thunar results in double entries for drives when mounted and even loop entries on the side, how is it done to avoid these issues plus how to get rid of the orange/ red warning that am running as root.

Kindly share your Thunar as well and xfce4 plugins.

Updated links to latest version on http://puppy.b0x.me/
Correct me if I'm wrong about other versions.
I might add a new page to highlight some other projects going on in community when I get time since were starting with "PR" again :)

I booted tahrpup on laptop shortly last night.
I like the default icons but I think the orange wallpaper would be better and some other jwm theme as default.
It booted to correct screen resolution and I could connect to wifi.

Yeah Thunar does that in Precise too, in Slacko it's ok so I have the same problem as you and I don't know the fix for that.

Edit: compiled in Tahr
I used this Thunar https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/260 ... 3-i686.pet it still doubles up on the mounts but there is no root warning.

I have yet to build more packages, I'm just trying to debug as I go.

You have to edit one of the thunar files before you compile to get rid of root warning. I can't remember which one at the moment.

The only way I know of getting rid of the double entries so far is to use thunar-1.4.0
X-slacko-5b1 - X-tahr-2.0 - X-precise-2.4

I compiled xfce4 too, I used your glib-2.42.0-i686.pet and pup-volume-monitor-0.1.15-i686.pet pets.
It's working pretty well.
