Mavrothal. I like the idea. I have even had manually created Dpup Exprimo which had a lot firmwares translocated to the /lib/firmware. It was at that b43 firmware loading error time. Before Barry Kauler fixed the problem in some system script. Is is good intention. Just dont put semi-working stuff t...

Haa. I have dvb tuner sticks. I downloaded needed firmware for it. Placed it to the /lib/modules/all-firmware/dvb-usb-firmware. I added the kernel module name to the /etc/modules/firmware.dep. Then I rebooted. Firmware loading error. [ 27.472309] dvb-usb: found a 'E3C EC168 DVB-T USB2.0 reference de...

Karl Godt. I know how firmwares have been loaded in Puppy. I just dont know how they are supposed to be loaded atm. Yeah. Newer kernels does not need much help. I suppose. I havent tested how it goes. I do have 3.12.3 kernel for Dpup Wheezy, but I dont have firmware dependent wireless to test. In my...

About firmware dependent kernel module loading. Woof-CE version I used had this kind of section in /sbin/pup_event_backend_modprobe: #####BAD HACKS SECTION##### if [ "$MODULE" = "mwave" ];then #only install firmware tarball, do not load module (firmware script does it). firmware_...

Dpup Wheezy 3.5.2.10 is out ! It is my second Woof-CE build. This update consists of bug fixes found since first Woof-CE. UExtract and PackIt are now woof compliant and so...the Rox Right Click file type couplings are working. They are great tools and I think they challenge Xarchive soon...no...the...

Regarding woof compliant pets. The crucial thing is that if the pet uses pinstall.sh script, it needs to be woof compliant - for the desired effect to happen and for that woofing 3builddistro stage does not fail. 'exit' command at the end of the pinstall.sh script is disaster. It stops 3builddistro ...

Diff or just packaging my changed files is ok. I do change only config files to create Dpup Wheezy. So...there is about 4 text files I do operate with. The rest is keeping ibiblio pet_packages-wheezy and database file for it in sync. And...maybe... updating woof compliant pets to noarch repo. My mai...

Mavrothal. Nope. Making Dpup Wheezy Woof-CE compatible and trashing bugs in using it takes my time. Starting tomorrow I dont have leisure time. No chance I start play with Github without guidance. Sorry. I know what it took from me to learn woof. It takes time. I dont have spare hours for it. Sorry ...

Schpankme. Jup. PupControl launches /usr/local/jwmconfig2/panel-buttons and that script tries to launch /usr/local/jwmconfig2/file-selector when you click the icon selection button. And fails. If you do that straight from that file panel-buttons or using Jwm Configurator application....it works. So....

Packit and Uextract pinstall.sh scripts were woof incompliant. I removed them. And also Packit has this line in DOTdesktop file: Exec=/usr/local/apps/PackIt/AppRun %F Yeah. This was clever. Pet installer knows that % 'something' should be removed. #120901 get rid of param on end of Exec, ex: Exec=gi...
