Hi ttuuxxx, I didn´t tried v7 before cause Hugo Leisink added experimental Remote Monitoring support, that needs another component (Hiawatha monitor) and this new feature could add some bugs, whereas v6 branch is very stable now... Anyway I tried your version ttuuxxx, some feedback: - Nice menu, seems that you hacked some icons 
- You are not using a Service initialization script, I like the script in /etc/init.d cause if you are using a public webserver and for a electrical problem or any-other problem the server machine is rebooted, you need to ensure Hiawatha is automatically initialized without admin manual check (and I already modified BootManager to control those Services  ). A short idea you could leave the hiawatha.run script (without changes, I mean keep status and check code please, something that is really necessary and the reason for my comments in Barry´s blog) in /etc/init.d and make a symlink to /usr/bin in this way you can have it available to admin tasks (using command line) and still use it in your nice GUI...
- In my tests the Webserver was initiated with a "nobody" user (default), the reason to create a new user "webuser" with the /root/Web-Server home is: Security control and to restrict accesses for Hiawatha (like in FTP Server). To start Hiawatha with the "webuser" user you have to add the "ServerId" parameter in the hiawatha.conf file. - The WebsiteRoot parameter should be /root/Web-Server for the same security reason, then the /var/www/hiawatha directory is unnecessary, although this kind of route seems to be standard for many Webservers like Apache...
hmmm, I have very old hardware, the oldest one is a First class Pentium (60 MHz) and I haven´t seen a 386 PC in ages (not one that works)... But I could recompile it for 214X. clarf |

Hi Clarf Second time writing the message, lol hit the back button and the closed the page , lol So I'll be quick, Ok I'm in the middle of making the Final 2.14X, It took me many of hours building that little gui and working out how to save the user from needing to adduser -h /root/Web-Server webuser . What I propose is that If you have the time, build or fix which ever 6,7 doesn't bug me which one as long as it works and uses my gui for the menu, I really would like to have the adduser -h /root/Web-Server webuser already done, that's why the 4 extra files I placed in /etc.
same with /dev/null has full permissions Basically I would like it if a user hits start from the menu it starts, none of this changing permissions and typing code before hitting a start button Man I like making things simple for people. Then you get less questions like, how do you do this?? etc
I can't really stop in the middle of making this update and revert back to server, it could messup a lot of work. Hope you can lend a hand ttuuxxx _________________ http://audio.online-convert.com/ <-- excellent site http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/A-codecs/ <-- Codec Test Files http://html5games.com/ <-- excellent HTML5 games

Oh as i386 goes, well Its a long story but, lf i386 is good enough for Ubuntu/Debian as its default compile, Its good enough for me
Actually if you ever compared the resources from the vlc package I made to what Gxine/Mplayer uses you would be amazed. The difference is people with low resources can watch a divx on my vlc where as gxine it just pauses and goes, and pauses etc. Some reports were around 50% less resources, none were higher. Plus the VLC package was twice as large as Gxine and 1/2 the resources. VLC I compiled as i386. Since then I never looked back
ttuuxxx PS i486 is Slackware

Hi ttuuxxx, I have to get out for a couple of hours... Don´t worry, I´ll take care of that hiawatha package, will use your nice stuff . I did an incompleted one to teach users about the security things concerned to Hiawatha (you know I love security stuff), when some problem appears that little information could help. Anyway for 214X final a complete package with the security files will be included, to make things easier for users.
About i386, Seems like the video compilation difference could be an exception for the rule. In my social circle the oldest machine I have seen working is my old Pentium (a i586 system), no i486 nor i386 (although I´m sure I saw an old board somehwere in my room), an I don´t see any CPU instructions difference... I feel like a deja vu, I´m sure we discussed these in a different thread long time ago. BUT, you are right 214X has it´s own standard and I´ll use that norm. Update: I forgot to say, I´ll keep an eye in 214X tonight so if you need any help just ask. Greetings, clarf |

Hi ttuuxxx, Here is the hiawatha package, I decided to keep your v7 binaries, not errors found in my tests or reported issues in Hiawatha forum for this version. I mixed and fixed some little errors with our packages... Now is a plug´N play application. Greetings, clarf

Great clarf, Glad you finished the hiawatha package in time
I've been working on dillo, its coming along nicely, I changed the theme with one from the website, but of course the names weren't correct in the code and so I had to figure that out, bookmarks work, so I added a few, like I do with Firefox. Just have a few more tweaks left and then I can move on.

Nope never going to change this version of Gpicview, This is the custom one Hairywill added slideshow to it, non of the official ones have it, well the last time I checked they didn't and the bin file is really, really small. ttuuxxx _________________ http://audio.online-convert.com/ <-- excellent site http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/A-codecs/ <-- Codec Test Files http://html5games.com/ <-- excellent HTML5 games

I compiled a frontend to wvdial called gnome ppp, want to give it a shot, I don't have dialup so I can't test it. ttuuxxx It comes with all the locales also. Oh please install this wv pet first, the one with 2.14X looks too be too old or cutdown, either or, I don't think the default one in 2.14X will work, http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?mode=attach&id=25607 ttuuxxx

Thanks ttuuxxx. I'm in 4.31 at the moment but all the same I'm happy to download it and give it a go. Best, CP. P.S. I must stress that I don't get lockups any more since I "degunked" my machine and got most of the dust and fluff out of it, especially from the CPU fan.

Hi Guys if anyone wants to hack Pburn feel free, lol Ok I'll explain, I've mentioned in the past on the Pburn thread that it should have simple 2 features, 1- A known issue with Pburn is that if the cdrw/dvdrw drive that you select at the first splashscreen is mounted, Pburn will not umount it, so it sits and acts like its broken, It won't erase/burn nothing and doesn't tell you anything is wrong. Really when you select which device it should auto-unmount the drive you select right then and there once you select ok. 2- When its finished and the final splash say "success and the amount of time" I think it would be nice if it played the 2 barks sound to let you known its finished. Just figured I would shoot that one out while I'm building the final Its the little things that count, lol, If not I might have a loot at it myself If I get the time.

the Gconf library I packaged up for 2.14X, I removed most of the gnome deps, The only one I left was liborbit, and liborbit I think I removed some gnome deps from that also so it didn't need anything to run, But Gconf and orbit both do function perfectly and it allows such applications like File-roller and Gcalctool to function in 2.14X, without the Gconf, LibOrbit both applications would be dead in the water. ttuuxxx _________________ http://audio.online-convert.com/ <-- excellent site http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/A-codecs/ <-- Codec Test Files http://html5games.com/ <-- excellent HTML5 games
