In the meantime I tried the flasgot extension for SeaMonkey and this works well.Béèm wrote:youtube2pup video downloader lupu 508
I don't find the youtube2pup video facility anymore.
I wanted to see if it is working now.
Will it be back?
Is it abandoned?
Béèm, Did you fail to boot to the desktop? The goal is that everyone can boot successfully to the desktop--we have solved the big problem from Lupu 5.0--which was Intel 855 graphics chipsets.When boot to the desktop fails and a user has the command prompt it is hell to type when having a National Language Keyboard.
So no change here.
smil99, "change the keyboard settings without dropping to the command line." The code in 505 that allowed that was too complicated and untested. To make the changes now you don't actually see the command line--you would have to restart X either way. Since it is only once, generally, that people need to do this, we went for the safest way. But it also works to change over and over, ask meFor example, through the video/language/keyboard changer, I could change the keyboard settings without dropping to the command line. Also, my internet connection fired up automatically without any intervention. These were quite great functions but they are lost in the latter lucis. Any chance to bring them back?
You can also use the Mouse/Keyboard Wizard to change Keyboard layout once you have set it once with the Classic Configuration Experience.Yes, it should appear automatically. 01micko is doing some last minute work on it that might help.I'm still without a battery level indicator on both JWM and IceWM - should I expect this to appear automatically? It always did with previous Puppies?
Are you sure about Netsurf? For me it gets to a point with drop down menus and they don't show right in Netsurf. I think there is nothing we can do about Chromium--people will want it even though it doesn't work for Cups.CUPS still crashes Chromium still but now works OK with Netsurf.
And yes, at this point it is enough that there is a way to get it done, even if not the default.mplayer still does not do dvb-t properly for me - just get sound plus a blank white screen - VLC though if loaded works fine.
Yes - I've managed to install a SMB printer that sends a raw PS file to my Windows XP box where it gets successfully printed using the REDMON and GSView runes and magic. Used Netsurf to do the CUPS setting up bit on lupu508 AOK - drop down menus worked where needed.playdayz wrote:Are you sure about Netsurf?

No I didn't fail to boot to the desktop. In this case by a mouse click the config can be done.playdayz wrote:Béèm, Did you fail to boot to the desktop?

I did that same kind of install as a test billtoo, saving to the whole partition as you did. I thought things were too slow to use, but your tip might help there. Thanks.This time I formatted my 4GB flash drive to ext3 in gparted and set the boot flag and then installed 508 using the universal installer instead of bootflash.
After booting up and doing the usual setup I rebooted and saved to sdb1 instead of a file so it used the entire drive.I installed SFS_Installer-1.0-430.pet and then used that to installed the devx.
I installed more apps from quickpet and then rebooted, rebooting took over 10 minutes because it was saving to the flash drive and if the light on the drive hadn't been flashing I would have thought the computer had locked up. I tried clicking the save icon on the desktop before rebooting the next time and it took about 10 seconds to reboot vs 10 minutes the other way.
I know your work is excellent but i think the complexity comes from the first button wrongly buttoned.playdayz wrote:smil99, "change the keyboard settings without dropping to the command line." The code in 505 that allowed that was too complicated and untested.
