Do you have xli installed? - If you have, I think that must be wrong. I don't see why it should be there. It is not in 4.12. I think that is the answer to wallpaper issue I reported. REMOVE IT - NOW Very Happy

Guys, I'm very happy with the stability of RC4 in private testing. Therefore I will upload it in 8-10 hours unless one of you asks for an extension.

@Zigbert - I think the only way to resolve the clock thing is to upload RC4 so you can play with it yourselves. Setting sleep didn't work. Commenting out the xli line in /root/.xinitrc didn't work either.

@All - the last of the niggling bugs appear to have been squashed
  • Abiword spell checking now works out of the box
  • RemaX seems stable
  • PETget has been localised
  • Pburn has been updated to 2.2
  • PCP Control Panel has been included on usability grounds
  • Alsa has been upgraded to 1.0.19 despite a minor dependency issue
  • ...and many scripts have been tweaked, polished or fixed as necessary
I will give you 48hrs from uploading to break RC4 and report. If there are no breaks of any note then I'll upload Final at the weekend.

Cheers

I don't believe so, no. It would only be there if it was in the Pwidgets-2.0.4 pack. The line in /root/.xinitrc is a hangover from earlier experiments with Pwidgets and the clock.

How can I experiment with it if it only occur at first boot (or is it at every boot). Pup_420.sfs is read only, and is out of my reach?????

No it's the same..I just afraid that whodo didn't put the right xonclock --> seems to me he's having the previous xonclock symptoms

Edit: come to think of it again..seems more like patriot's xonclock is getting wrong window-id

Hey Who I also compiled alsa, Which file is complaining about missing libs, I could give you the same file. I compiled alsa-firmware, alsalibs, alsa-oss, alsaplugins, alsatools, alsautils. Then only one which wouldn't compile was alsa drivers, That was screwy on my pc. So inform me which file you need and i'll send it to you.
Also don't forget the older but better Claws mail on page2 plus my other updates. Smile
I guess probably no need to update Seamonkey since there doesn't look like anytime left before the final for testing. Oh ya one thing thats bugging me a lot, when i right click on a file, a lot of the time I get "Customise Menu" and it auto starts because I have a sensitive i-rocks mouse, anyways we could have a blank space in the menu located at that same area so the Customise menu doesn't basically autostart around 30 times today also? Like maybe a label using a period, or you could put something like 'puppy menu' who know, just that program needs to be moved up or down by one name Smile

I can't connect the wireless on my Asus eee 900A. It loads the driver for ethernet, though. I'm using RC3. When I load the proper driver (atho),It just returns, "no new devices found". This same driver works fine with the Pupeee distro. Any possible solutions?

Thank you,

Don

Find a spot in a Linux partition with 300+ MB of free space and create a directory named rootfs-complete. For this example, I assume /mnt/home/rootfs-complete.

From the same directory where you have a pup_420.sfs file, run these commands:
Code:
mount -o loop pup_420.sfs /mnt/data
cp -a /mnt/data/* /mnt/home/rootfs-complete/
umount /mnt/data

Now you can go into /mnt/home/rootfs-complete/ and change things. When done, go to /mnt/home and run this:
Code:
mksquashfs rootfs-complete pup_420.sfs

That will produce a pup_420.sfs file in /mnt/home. Test it. If it needs more adjustments, go back to /mnt/home/rootfs-complete/ and make more changes.

Try replacing the madwifi pet package with the one on the package repository (madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-r3861-k2.6.25.16.pet). Did the trick for my eee 701.

Thanks thats a better way of changing system files and building a test model Smile
