He's busy.

Wow, it looks great. I might make it the default for Librepup.

How about my practical proposal above? While I don't think there's any reason to disable those pings (as I said earlier, there's no privacy/security problem), I won't stand in your way if you: 1) Fork woof-CE, implement this feature cleanly and send a pull request 2) Don't alter the default behavio...

Most probably, pings are harmless. At last. Thank you. Exactly the answer I wanted. Do pinging logs have a potential to become a tracking issue? No! You never know, Yes I do, sometimes. :evil: but servers keep logs What servers? I haven't heard of any servers that log ICMP traffic. And even if duck...

You still haven't explained why they're so bad.

I don't understand why those pings are so bad. From a security perspective, if you capture those packets (using MITM), you gain only one thing: now you know it's probably Puppy. However, fingerprinting a distro is incredibly easy anyway (for example, by capturing browser user agents, e-mail client v...

I presume, iguleder disabled it for his Trisquel Pup. What about the master branch - Slacko and Tahr Pups? I'll just put this here :P This change is part of Slacko 6.3.0 and every Puppy built using woof-CE lately. Don't you dare to blame me for improving my puplets without sharing my code with othe...

I forgot to point out something: by calling Puppy "efficient", I mean it has a good size vs. functionality ratio, not just small size. Efficiency of such a complex piece of software is relative, not absolute.

What's all the fuss about Woof CE, can you guys tell me what's been accomplished? See the Slacko 6.3.0 changelog and the commit log of woof-CE. Show me the goods - has the booting routine been rectified? Have you considered implementing simargl's workaround for Archpup instead of using the half-ass...

I think you're missing four points: 1) Perceived speed of software is determined by two factors: its efficiency and the hardware it runs on. Inefficient software on a fast processor runs fast, while all software is slow on underpowered hardware. 2) High memory consumption does not mean bad performan...

Sorry, I have only one server dedicated to Librepup. Servers cost money

You're probably facing a limitation of SNS, definitely not a limitation specific to Librepup. You can use multiple interfaces - maybe it's the network wizard that disallows this.

This issue has already been fixed in woof-CE - make sure you're using the latest commit

Hello i change the kernels to 3.17.7 and that fix the problems. That is a non-free kernel, I guess (unless you used Linux-libre). This is not a solution for users that care about their freedom. :evil: Again, as I said in the first post: people, please don't offer or recommend non-free software. I j...

This happens because you enabled the UEFI stub (search the kernel configuration for STUB) in the 4.x kernel. This option makes the kernel image a valid UEFI application, so it has the same header as Windows executables (starts with "MZ"). Try this: head -c 2 vmlinuz If one kernel begins wi...

6.0.2.2 is out

Don't worry, musher0. I'll upload the ISO today or tomorrow, with no-brainer instructions how to build it. It doesn't say Librepup but it works okay so far. I chose the PAE kernel. Good job, thanks for testing woof-CE! All the Librepup stuff are in woof-CE, except four things: - The kernel - the Lib...

Librepup 6.0.2.2 will be available shortly :) Changes: - New artwork - netmon_wce - An updated kernel - Fix for the fonts issue in Geany - Many woof-CE fixes and improvements by 01micko and mavrothal - Greatly reduced size - many unneeded libraries were removed - UI improvements by zigbert As usual,...

Just letting you know - for 6.0.2.2, I also upgraded the entire graphics stack (X, Mesa, etc') to the versions used by the latest Ubuntu release (what Canonical calls "hardware enablement") - they package the newer graphics stuff from the latest release, for the LTS release. Trisquel has t...

If we are starting serious use of rootfs-packages, I suggest that a number of apps inside rootfs-skeleton also finds its way to rootfs-packages 100% agreed - things like pupzip should be moved out of rootfs-skeleton. Now that ancient fonts and /usr/X11R7 are gone, it's time to clean up the mess in ...
