XPP 1.5 Cups Printer GUI App

#1 Post by john biles »

Hello Everyone,
Here's a small GUI to go with the CUPS Printing System.

It requires the FLTK library which can be downloaded as a dotpup from MU's site

Just unzip the tar.gz and copy into the correct folders.


See Link to Home Page http://cups.sourceforge.net/xpp/#download

Note: I get the feeling it would be better to experiment with this while running live, as it may upset your installed Puppy's printing setting.

1. Install the fltk-1.1.11.pup (download from www.dotpups.de)
2. Extract xpp.1.5.tar.gz and copy in /usr
3. In console, I used

Code: Select all

xpp
4. xpp won't run and I get this message:

Code: Select all

xpp: error while loading libaries: libfltk_images.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.
5. My system is missed the libfltk_images.so.1.1. where I can find it. In /usr/lib I'd found libfltk.so.1 (only one libfltk*)
Thank you

Sorry - I can't help you with that - you may like to post the question in a new thread. You could try my package of GTKLP though:

Hello vanchutr,
Go to /usr/lib and find the lib called libfltk_images.so.2 or simular.
Now open ROX in say "my documents" and drag the lib accross to it and link it there.
Now rename the link to libfltk_images.so.1.1 and drag it back into /usr/lib

Hopefully XPP 1.5 will now open.
