Re: Raspup 8.2.1

@ 01micko Hi 01micko, after some limited testing of Raspup 8.2.1, I met the following problems. 1. the save option at shutdown/reboot (intuitively) reminds me of the procedure in Quirky Xerus which Barry (if I correctly recall) does not consider very 'reliable'. Could this explain that my sessions ...

Hello keniv, The instructions you quote are _only_ if you download the file that does _not_ have '.img' in the name. That way you can format the card however you want. The '.img' files are intentionally formatted to f2fs which is newish filesystem designed by developers at Samsung and made open sour...

@ozsouth - yes interesting. No doubt @wjaguar is a skilled technician and will move appropriately in the future. @enrique - don't worry too much. I doubt gtk2 is going anywhere soon, but there will come a point (hopefully in distant future) where bitrot sets in and it will be unlikely that many gtk2...

Lets look at the pros and cons of moving to gtk+-3 Pros is necessary because (nearly) all up to date browsers depend on it (see cons) gtkdialog supports it somewhat removes the need to carry 2 gtk+ (2 and 3) toolkits much up to date software depends on it (abiword, gnumeric, evince etc) we do need t...

poorercputemp - another tray temp monitor

This temperature monitor has no frills and less dependencies, only depends on gtk and the kernel module for hardware monitoring (varies accreoss hardware) Well, nothing much to say except that it writes svg icons to /tmp/ - but there is no menu or fancy 'about' screen. Pets (32 and 64) and source at...

Hi musher0 apulse , as the link suggests, emulates pulse audio for alsa. I have had good success with it, even in raspberry pi. Of course, it doesn't need to be in the desktop file, it can be run on cli preceding the firefox command and any options or scripted. Works well with other programs compile...

mash, I believe busybox fdisk only uses MB, GB whereas gnu fdisk does use MiB and GiB. In the initrd.gz we only have busbox fdisk available.

See screenshot.

Glad it works for you :)

bigpup, I'm presently doing an overhaul of change_kernels with support for just dragging the whole tarball to a window as well as retaining the old method. It will also support changing /usr/lib64 to /usr/lib for deb based distros in the zdrive.

On the exec line of the firefox.desktop put this:

Code: Select all

Exec=apulse firefox
This assumes the there is a firefox binary or symlink in you PATH, which you may have to create yourself if you get official mozilla package.

@bigpup if you plug in a usb stick you might be able to save the debug logs on that. Also try @gyro's kernel and init script. (edit.. gyro's init wont work.. see below for explanation) Your drive is indicated as gpt via that screen shot which explains the kernel panic as fdisk will error because it ...
