Hey Guys I added some plugins to BMP now it has LADSPA plus tap plugins, Image below, you just configure the ones you like the best for BMP and your stereo, I was going to include jack and all that other stuff but then I figured better to keep it small.

Glad you survived the first week of work relatively intact.. I guess sitting in front of a computer doesn't qualify as strenuous exercise, believe me I know.

Sympathize with you on the computer problems as well, been fighting some hardware issues myself.

Anyway, looking forward to future releases as you find the time......

(3rd attempt to get this right)

ttuuxxx:

Barry has just released his 4.3.1rc and it includes a nice little app called Partview which polls all the drives/partitions whether mounted or not, (it mounts them temporarily if they aren't) and gives a display of used and available space. Apparently it was in puppys prior to 4.0

I thought this was the same as the partview in your 214X but it seems rather different. Any chance this could be included in 214X? Not sure how the clash of naming would be sorted? I'd find it particularly useful.

If it's too much bother I fully understand.

Cheers
Dave

Our posts crossed.
I am really very grateful and a little embarrassed you took so much effort just to find a new timer. Many many thanks.

However it wasn't an idle request as it's really something I often use so it will be well appreciated.

Thanks again and cheers

Dave

hi dave with cups, I think I have most of your fixes included, but I found a better way that works, and users can easily remove it. make a simple script like
#!/bin/sh
exec /etc/init.d/cups restart
named it cups-starter and toss it into startup
restart-x server and away you go, no extra changes,links etc needed.

Good morning here, think evening your time Glad you survived the week.. let me tell you... older you get more recovery time for being inactive....)).

No problem leaving driver the same for zd1211rw.... I know how to fix my issue.. I kind of figure that is a popular module... and tons? of others may encounter the problem. If I can speak out of turn... "tempestuous" is the one to ask on what or how to remove just the zd1211 or black list it...etc.... Wish I understood more of how this works..... slowly learning...

As I said for me problem solved. YOU have quite an accomplishment here.. I think that it will be used a ton..... please change the license plate to indicate the VERSION number.....))))... (or include your routine to change the start button to the version number Please)

As has been mentioned many times.... with literally dozens of versions of Puppy in the works... it is hard to be sure what version is what.....

Any luck so far on diagnosis of hardware problems??? What is it doing? I am sure it can't be as simple as loose video cable? You mentioned LCD possibly acting up.. can you switch displays? Don't know about in Australia.. but prices dropping on new LCD panels... small ones.. are downright inexpensive.

Here is an early note from tempestuous on zd12111rw....not sure it answers what has to be unloaded or if the pet has the code to make zd1211rw priority? 430 series loads the correct version if that helps?

Again.. thanks for all your hard work..it is appreciated! Hope they are paying you well for your construction work!!!

Hi guys i just booted up on it for the first time it and ran great also was still low ram used, htop said only 30MB of ram, pretty good and that's with cups running.

Thanks ttuuxxx, It´s running fine for me, very fast and low memory consumption.

Some little things found:

TighVNC client is present but the shortcut entry is lost in: Menu - Network.
Skins for BMP are in sub-directories, they should be .zip or wsz compressed files.
In background setter When I use "Reload" or "change folder" the application is closed instead.

Greetings,

Just completed a full install on my P3 test machine. As expected, no difficulties with installer or gparted.

Have a good week at work......
