Lucid Puppy 5.1.1 Release - This is the official release

[edoc]

5.1.1 Broke CUPS 1.4.3

Getting 500 Internal Server Error

Arghhhh!

BUMP!

Seriously, am I the only one seeing a CUPS 1.4.3 problem after the upgrade to 5.1.1?

They had this same problem in the uPup series of releases:

Edoc. Nope. How did you upgrade ?

[edoc]

It was recommended that I follow the Delta path, which I did.

[pemasu]

Did you use your old savefile from previous luci ?

[edoc]

Yes.

The upgrade did the pages and pages of file updates.

[pemasu]

I suggest booting pfix=ram to solve if your old savefile is reason that cups is not working.

[edoc]

pfix=ram then loaded the foo file then found and added the printer and it worked.

So the Delta upgrade from 5.1.0 to 5.1.1 broke CUPS.

It would break the most troublesome app in all of PuppyWorld ... sigh.

I tried reinstalling the foo back in the regular boot of 5.1.1 but it is CUPS that is broken.

Where is the best place to find a Lucid 5.1.1 - friendly version of CUPS 1.4.3 so I may re-install it, please?

I looked in Puppy Package Manager and it isn't there. Should I add one or the Ubuntu/Lucid repositories or some other Puppy repository or are those not the best places to get stuff for Lucid 5.1.1?

Doc,

why not simply save your data outside the partition, and do a clean install? CUPS 143 is what Luci 511 comes with.

[pemasu]

Edoc. You can easily check if your delta upgraded 511.iso is right. If it has same MD5sum as 511.iso posted by playdayz then there is nothing wrong with your 511.iso which you upgraded.

I believe it is your savefile which inhibits cups to work.

delta.iso is usually safer way to update iso, because it is smaller download and smaller risk that there is couple of bytes upside down.

We are still getting people with problems in #puppylinux with ayttm.

I request a full and comprehensive fix - to be released - one that either replaces ayttm with midori + webirc page or a fixed ayttm - OR include xchat as default.

I would also like to ask that all old releases 5.0 - 5.1 with broken ayttm be taken off the download site - and/or be patched with the before-mentioned fix.

I'm a regular Lucid 5.1.1 user - but having so many people complain & laugh & call Lucid crap is very, very dissapointing.

I think the puppylinux community can do better.

The Delta iso looks like this:

# md5sum lupu-511.iso
6e34d1bcdad74df7d6352a6d672522ec lupu-511.iso

Interestingly, the SFS from the Delta iso looks like this:

# md5sum lupu-511.sfs
164ab0fd64393099f4f9794606f4e515 lupu-511.sfs

I have no idea why they are different and presume that they should be.

It is a major nuisance if every time I update Lucid I have to do a backup and reinstall of a bunch of apps.

I have Seamonkey and OpenOffice and a number of other apps outside of the Save File but symlinked-in.

PS I like Wine as well and, though I no longer need it, W98SE.

Audacious didn't make it to that thread but it did to QuickPet - NEWS.

Thanks for the updated resources!

Edoc. 511.sfs is inside 511.iso. You didnt compare your iso.delta upgraded 511.iso MD5sum to original 511.iso MD5sum.

511.sfs of course give different MD5sum than 511.iso.

Thank you very much Sir Jasper.

So the Delta upgrade from 5.1.0 to 5.1.1 broke CUPS.

Odd, I also did the Delta upgrade of the ISO and haven't noticed any CUPs problems on Merlin when using the existing pupsave.

Cheers for doing the Flash update, saved me having to figure out which one to use from Adobe's site. Any chance of a PET for Opera 10.62?

Also, v2.6 of NetSurf has just come out. Still no Javascript, but I think they've done more work on the Linux version. Pity there isn't an autobuilder for the development releases like they have for the RISC OS version.

[playdayz]

Any chance of a PET for Opera 10.62?

Yes. It is in Lupu News from Quickpet, uh, just as soon as I change the url

I was lazy I guess making the pet, so you need to use the Browser-Default to make it the default browser.

I looked up netsurf 2.6 changelog.
Here it is....

They describe it as mostly a bug fix.
