Subject description: alsamixer to be launched from console only |
|
Hi shinobar,
I first have thought alsamixer not present in lupq-50X as its entry is not present in Menu/Multimedia/Multimedia/xxx (as it is the case on quite all puppies).
Nevertheless it is present in lupq and can be started doing in a console:
Would it be interesting to add the entry "Alsamixer" in the menu in next lupq version, wouldn'it?
Merci d'avance, Charlie

C'est ça.
Don't the Retrovol do all of what alsamixer does?
…Oops. Also Retrovol is not in the menu
You can right-click the speaker icon on the tray(bottom of the desktop) and select 'Full Window'.
But i think we need on the main menu too.

lupq509 Subject description: midori |
|
Bonjour shinobar,
having tried to post from lupq509 pfix=ram,
set locale, installed langpack
but posting let midori freeze (98% CPU)
I know, midori bug is another topic, but let it be the default browser?
No
Other thought:
Is it possible to install available langpack automagically after countrywizard?
Would be really another great thing made by shinobar
Cheers

Hi, L18L.
Midori is yes problematic.

Nice idea. Technically, yes.
The .iso file may be 200MB or so.
I like to try such a version after this release finalized.

I got te same problem with midori. (see post here)
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=58654&start=120
I do not use it anymore for posting. Midori is used just for html viewing or Cups configuration.
There are other tiny browsers like Dillo or PuppyBrowser (do not know much about them).
(have used Dillo in another puppy: poor graphic rendering but worked OK excepted when downloading: problem filling the save dialog box and could not get any download)
Ja mata.
Bis später.
Cheers, Charlie

Nor do I.
(Now posting in good old seamonkey, puppy 431)
But I think, Quickset Edition must be able able to be used by newbees
without the need to select another browser.
I have used lupq509 in lang=de_DE.UTF-8, so it seems to me that the problem of the squeezed build of midori is not a special locale but utf8 in general.

Ciao charlie and L18L.

One thought, how about to remove midori frome the menu(/usr/share/applications/midori.desktop).
Then midori does not appear in the 'Choose Default Browser', though may need additional modification of the Quickpet.
I think it makes sense regarding 'a choice in browsers' is a feature of Lucid Puppy.
mmm...

shinobar ,
I did start a new thread to not clutter up this one but failed to get help.
Hope it is okay if I ask here?
I've fail to set it up so it remember how to keep the connection at start up.
When I use Quirky it uses SNS and it always start up connecting to internet and remember this to next boot up.
In LupQ I have to go to set up and network and find no SNS there.
It has lost memory of the set up next time me boot in so have to start all over again. Very annoying and time consuming just for to check a mail.

What are you using for the connection? Wired or Wireless?
The settings of the Network Wizard shall be saved under /etc/network-wizard. They may be 'xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.conf' at the subsidiary directories, network, wireless, interfaces, profiles, and so on.
Are they there?
If you loose the connection, what happens when right-click the 'connect' icon on the desktop and select 'Autoconnect'?

Hmm... Seeing your another post, no problem with LupQ-506 or 508 but update to 509 has the trouble, right, nooby?
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=60046
Were you using SNS wtih LupQ-506?
SNS is removed from 507 release.
Remove the old settings of SNS from /etc/simple_network_setup.
And run the Network Wizard and save the settings.
EDIT:
Ensure /usr/local/bin/defaultconnect does not direct sns.
Run the 'Internet Connection Wizard' from the main menu, check the 'Desktop/tray', choose 'Network Wizard' or 'Internet Connection Wizard'.

Yes me had 506 and updated to 508 and then 509 and most likely did not remember about the connection thing. Using Quirky instead.
But now I want to use LupQ instead.
So I do as you suggest. I deleted the sns folder but
#!/bin/sh
exec sns
And deleted sns there in that defaultconnect.
But what should be there instead? Something pointing to autoconnect maybe?

Yes finally it did work. I rebooted and it still worked when I clicked on the email and it downloaed emails and clicking to this thread.
So a big Thank you very much for all this detailed help.
Hopefully others also can be helped if the find this thread.
What worry me now is that my ISP will throw me out each 30 minutes.
But most likely me can just autoconnect each time.
Why did SNS disappear then. It was my rescue last time me lost connection each 30 minutes. Very annoying to lost it when one look at a streaming TV or radio.
Hopefully it works though.
