Installed pet,restarted X and............................

Hi 01micko

Instaled the delayed run pet and works fine, if you change the desktops with the desktop/wm switcher.

If in icewm and you use the shutdown/restart in jvm option, only the sound icon appears in the task bar when jvm is started.

Hope this helps

I dl and tested on my PB A6 and report success in that this version did everything automatically. As a relentless Newbie I appreciate such features.

What I am not so comfortable with is that it love to do "Indexing" on a directory if it has jpg in it.

If one have very many such then it locks up the computer for a long time, several minutes and even crash when one have 512 or less in memory.

How can I tell it to not do index for media files?

Firefox did well on CNN video but Opera browser failed. Could be Opera and have nothing to do with Luci?

There is a lot of things me have not tested this time. Wine and Spotify and such.

Some notes after using Puppy 5.1 some days.
All in all, it works very well. Congrats!!!

--> Default jwm-theme: Hard to tell which is the active window. The window heading for active and inactive is rather similar.
--> The everlasting issue that the exec-button in geany is still there. The answer is also still the same: 'term_cmd=/usr/X11R7/bin/xterm -e bash -c' in /root/.config/geany.conf
--> Gtk-theme: Hard to determine the scrollbar-button with default theme
--> id3info is missing, which is required of both Pmetatagger and Pmusic. I consider switching to id3v2 for Pmusic. The benefits is that it supports both version 1 & 2 tags, while mp3info only supports version 1. id3v2 is also able to remove a tag completely. The downside is that Pmetatagger does not support id3v2. Do you have any thoughts?
--> The new gtkdialog-based yaf-splash is annoying when it steel focus while I'm typing. What was the actual problem with the original?
--> Would it be possible to include some classes into the wm-configs? gtkdialog scripts will benefit of that. (Fullscreen, do not show in tray, on top, ...) Some of my scripts already uses classes as they are defined in Stardust (DuDE). This is what is added in my /root/.jwmrc:

ok.. time to be "not so serious"... (it is the week end after all )

I made an iconset for the new blinky.. (er.. network_tray to be more "official" ).. if you recall there's an alternate set for this blinky in the main thread (approaching 140 pages )

Try if you want, should uninstall ok.

Cheers

TEST luci 217 FULL INSTALL:

'azerty' and fr_FR (France), Nvidia driver (GeForce 7600 GT ,AMD AM2

It's good but :
1) I don't have 'Complete Configuration Experience' on desktop
I must do :
Menu > Setup > CCE in order to get 'my' keyboard layout, Time Zone, Video driver, locale etc...
After that azerty, fr_Fr, Time zone (UTC) are right.
----------------------

That is right (my habitual use)) :
--- glxgears : OK
--- jwm, icewm : OK
--- startmount, numlock, opera 10-60 (icewm), python interpreter : all OK
--- gimp, vlc (listen and record ): all OK
--- for the fun: google-Earth, Stellerium (fun of the fun : it's 11 a.m. o'clock) : all OK
---------------------------------------------

That is bad for me:
--- sylpheed : Filter tool.
I Created several 'filter rules' >... after > Tools > 'Filter all messages in folder => pop-up "Error occured while processing messages"
---------------------------------------------

My tiny hint about FULL INSTALL with the "puppy Installer" :
write out we must mount the live-CD before installing...
---------------------------------------------

I still lose wireless connection after a period of non-use and have to rerun the connection manager to reconnect using b43legacy.

or restart the computer, the connection reestablishes between restarts but not while running

HI all,
grad to see your new activity brushing up Lucid Puppy.

/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit on lupu does not call rc.country.
This is the cause of the timezone issue.
Calling rc.country, we need not run /root/Startup/settime anymore.

The rc.sysinit and also rc.country to be reverted to those of the woof.
Is there any problem on the direct desktop?

[shinobar]

Lupu makes automatic LAN connection if eth0 and DHCP available.
In this case, right click the 'Connect' icon on the desktop.
It has the menu items 'Autoconnect'/'Disconnect', but it does not but launches connection wizard in this case.

Replace /usr/local/apps/Connect/AppRun by the attached.
