Thanks 666phlib for this beautiful project, your pups are always the coolest :D Trying it right now on this old Intel Xeon workstation (Sandy Bridge based), and looks OK, but I get this segfault in dmesg: [ 81.981096] gsettings-data-[7884]: segfault at 48 ip 00007ff14b7a1930 sp 00007ffc238a5570 erro...

My little 2 cents: systemd is,in my point of view, a system-wide cancer. It mangles everything into a blob of obscure dependencies, even if it comes out with a kind-of neat interface. Upstart was messy, but still readable and "hackable" to some extent, this stuff (systemd) is plain intrusi...

I'm having a lot of trouble making LVM2 to work on the latest BionicPup64. I need it to test a not-yet-integrated, but interesting RedHat module named VDO (https://github.com/dm-vdo/kvdo) that provides block-level deduplication and compression via LZ4. I managed to compile and run the module and it ...

-- EDIT: nevermind, I downloaded the kernel sources and compiled the l2tp module, works flawlessly. -- EDIT2: I got also the .deb wireguard packages for ubuntu bionic fromthe official repository. In can confirm they work as expected, after compiling the module (the source will be in /usr/src after i...

After a whole afternoon studying this (and other) threads on the subject, I managed to assemble (i.e. hack) a working upupbb 18.05+8 on an USB stick formatted with BTRFS. - I used the info provided in this thread to install upupBB 18.05+8 with overlayFS on a (ext4 formatted) USB stick. - I compiled ...

I've been using BTRFS for quite some time in my ubuntu setups, it has proven to be a really good "swiss knife" FS that includes advanced features, like RAID, snapshots, compression etc. I've been reading in the BTRFS wiki that with kernel 4.15: Overlayfs can now use btrfs as the lower file...

@MochiMoppel, thanks a million, using the tag

<Name>Navigator</Name>

did the trick, and my Firefox is now ... more beautiful

The <Class> statement did not work, I think I'm writing it wrong: can you please give me a working example?

I am aware of the fact that this answer does not give you a recipe, but some interaction may be done with wmctrl: https://linux.die.net/man/1/wmctrl Indeed: this command wmctrl -r Mozilla -b toggle,fullscreen toggles fullscreen mode correctly,but it's not exactly what was I was looking for. I wante...

Thanks, musher0, I think I'll "live with it" for the time being. I thought it was a trivial matter: after a lot of googling around I've found that browsers have become extremely complex beasts, sometimes difficult to tame. The subject of windows decorations came out in a lot of discussions...

Hello musher0. Your example works perfectly with xclock, but I can't make it work for firefox. I added: <Name>firefox</Name> <Option>notitle</Option> <Option>noborder</Option> <Option>nolist</Option> <Option>nopager</Option> in the <Group> section, but Firefox opens with the usual decorators. I've m...

Just for fun, I installed an old office 2007 enterprise from a DvD I had laying around, using the wine-portable package from mikesir (great job on that one!) on upupbb 18.05+3. After copying some fonts from the windows partition, everything I tested worked beautifully. I've been trying in the past u...

I was trying to install winbind: the package manager warns me about a version difference about samba packages (see picture).

Is it safe to install the whole samba-4.7.6 package from repository ? Or should I get a 4.7.0-i686 winbind package ?

//EDIT: It was the hosts.allow file that I had to modify... :roll: I have this problem with sshd: I can connect to localhost but any connection from outside fails. Things I tried: - disabling all firewalls - tried ssh from different machines: ubuntu, puppy-xenial - copied a working configuration (/e...

I'm testing this luci-265 release on my new laptop, a Packard Bell TM85, I3 370M processor, Nvida GT320M graphics. No network interface is recognized. The interfaces on it are: Wired: Broadcom Netlink BCM57780 Gigabit Wireless: Realtek RTL8192SE The former should be loaded by the tg3 module, but it ...

Thanks Moose. I've already tried the WINE road, but it's still too .. bumpy. I also find it quite difficult to integrate stuff correctly, but it's my problem I guess. Funny enough a "portable" version of Photoshop CS4 works flawlessly under WINE, but this little custom software does not. I...

It's a couple of years I've got rid of Windows on my machines at the office. I've been using Ubuntu since version 9. It's been pretty cool for a while, felt good, got used to a Gnome desktop. After I while, at home, I discovered Puppy Linux for my nettop. Such an AMAZING piece of work, especially (b...

I know it was a while ago, Eric, but this has just been posted, though it may not be quite what you had in mind..... Tried this one, too (I'm using it right now on my laptop). With wordpress I still get "cannot connect to database". Really confused now - there's a place where I can find a...

Thanks for this wonderful puppy, it was just what I needed for some web development I am planning. I intend to use wordpress, and the puppy has just what I need. The problem is, I really can't make it work on this puppy, and that kills me, because it works on my horrible WinXP+XAMPP. For the first (...
