Classic Pup 2.14X -- Updated 2 series
Thanks, Ttuuxxx.
You've done a tremendous amount of work on this one (as well as everyone else on this thread) and I really appreciate all of it. As a matter of fact, I've got a buddy here with an older laptop that I want to put your 214X Final on after completion. But please notice that I am not prodding anybody for quickness -- or prodding anybody at all, really -- maturity possesses far greater value.
Now, if I could just teach myself to preview and edit my own posts before submitting them....

Hi guys this is something most of you have wanted, its a icon switcher for the desktop and menu icons, I had to do a lot of changes, some to the scripts, icons,xdg menus etc, I made up 2 versions, one that automatically changes without the "ok" click box and one with. you decide which you like better and I'll add it
This contains 2 themes Blue Moon and Stardust.

Updated the icon switcher to a woof version so that now 24x24 icons aren't needed it will make the missing ones if they have the same name.
example
configuration48.png
configuration24.png
all that is needed is the configuration48.png icon and it will build the configuration24.png
Well that is the way Barry likes it, but I've noticed in the past you do lose some image quality doing this.

Just a quick update; I couldn't even copy the files (at least, not all of them) off the CD. So a bad burn is what it looks like.davesurrey wrote:Colonel Panic,
If you do a google for that error message you'll see that most folk who have had with other distros this have put it down to a bad burn or bad CD burner (same thing I guess.)
Not trying to tell you how to suck eggs but...
Did you check that the downloaded MD5 agreed with that on page 1 of this thread?
Have you tried another burner, reduced the burn speed, changed type of CD you use?
What about doing a manual install (assume you're using frugal) by opening the iso and extracting the individual files.
Just a few thoughts as this is the only post I've seen concerning this error with RC1.
Tell us what happens.
Cheers
Dave
Thanks for replying anyway, but I think I'll wait for 2.14X-Final.

Thanks for the icon switcher gift ttuuxxx, It should be added to the Control Panel list. I was thinking in the miscellaneous tab.
I found the icon change is not immediately applied (I suppose the change will be possible only after icons in /usr/local/lib/X11/pixmaps are replaced), so the one with the additional OK button could be the best option, because changes for the user seems to be executed after OK is pressed.

ttuuxxx, I like Stardust theme please don´t remove it (I´m a old man with a classic taste ). I think WhoDo´s theme is better suited for XOpup project default theme, looks good in small resolutions and is based in comic icons (hand drawed), anyway it´s a really good addition to 214X...ttuuxxx wrote:also here's a link to a theme that WhoDo uploaded, I was thinking of replacing Stardust with it

Not bad at all , but I´ll prefer folder icons from UGnome theme, also draw, Pmount and petget icons look something poor (for a color oriented theme). I like Puppy-Oxygen colors... Although Home, PetGet and Pmount icons are not the best ones.ttuuxxx wrote: Hmmm I also like zabuton3

Love the icon switcher. Nice addition.
Like clarf I don't think HaikuPup would be a positive move for 214X. Not that I think much of Stardust either especially the famous fuzzy house for Home. I just think Blue Moon is really good. But others I personally would vote for are erectus, JQ8 and Puppy-Oxygen.
Also FWIW I prefer the no-ok version of the icon switcher.

For the first time ever Firefox won't run. Running from the terminal I get
Anyone know how I can overcome this update and get FF back without having to do a re-install.
Thanks

I think this happened after I let it update yesterday. Won't do that again./lib/firefox/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 6327 Bus error "$prog" ${1+"$@"}

Reading through the rox manual I discovered AVFS which lets you browse archives as folders (including tar.gz, tar.bz2, rar, zip...) It is rather small and quick for what it does & arguably simpler (maybe too simple?) than xarchive, xarchiver and file roller.
There is a pet here
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... h&id=24169
(It is compiled for the puppy 4.X, but should work for 2.X as well - for more info on AVFS read the Rox help file)

delete /root/.mozilla
place your cd into the drive
open the cd and drag /mnt/dvd/pup_214X.sfs to /root/SfS-converter/3-4-Series it will make a /root/squashfs-root folder
delete /lib/firefox and replace it with the /root/squashfs-root/lib/firefox folder and your done

Thanks ttuuxxx.
It worked fine...except that when I dragged the pup214x.sfs file from the CD to /root/SfS-converter/3-4-Series it refused to copy. This was with 214X-RC1.
So then I went to a 214X16 install it worked straight away so I used the files from there.
I note that there is a SFS-converter pet which I have applied previously to 214X RC1 but not to 214X16. Could this be the reason? What is the pet for?
Cheers
