And now I read more
Can we put it in PPM dejan555?dejan555 provided the fluxbox for Lucid,
Thanks, Don, I'll check it out...never used retrovol, so I'll have to look into it...I just picked the mtpaint that was recomended in the woof build and i am trying to keep the size down on pfluxlite...I like the Rox filer ideas, though...didn't notice any slowness on geany but will look into it...like I said, I'll check it out; thanks!...don570 wrote:I tried Pfluxlite and I liked it's look.
Oddly I found Geany slow to launch.

Here are some suggestions.
Retrovol should be in the menu rather than alsamixer.
Also you need a version of mhwaveedit that will launch
Retrovol by clicking on icon.
Try this

set_hwclock should be in the menu as well to be consistent with Lucid Puppy.
Many users won't know how to set the clock if they are booting
on a linux machine rather than a windows machine.

I suggest you use this version of mtpaint 3.34.55 .
It's only slightly larger than version 3.31

I made a package to put some useful right-click options for Rox Filer.
Try it out. It uses mplayer to play several audio and video formats.

During the woof process, if you have devx running, it gives you the option to run "strip", which I did, although this was my first time to have a completed process with woof, so have no idea how stripped it was...don570 wrote:You should read forum member shinobar's experience with making lupq

Apparently the apps he was getting from Woof weren't stripped!!
It all started when I read about the program strippkg
http://208.109.22.214/puppy/viewtopic.p ... d2bc37c11f.
When I tried using it, I noticed that Retrovol wasn't stripped .
I sent a message to Shinobar to tell him about it. You can read the rest
with the link.

Hmmm...no specific feedback from me regarding that one...I don't know if mplayer looks for data on the web. I think of mplayer as a universal media player and not as much of a music player...for that i might pick something like pmusic, which I know Pfluxlite has (I'm using that right now) but can't swear to Pupflux...type pmusic in the terminal and see how it plays for you music...gnomic wrote:Hullo there,
It's back, Pupflux, and I'm digging it. From the desktop right now.
However one little thing I noticed on playing an audio cd with Gnome-MPlayer, about three times a minute sound output ceased for round a second. Optical drive is good (nothing in dmesg about i/o errors). What I have seen of mplayer messages appears normal so far as I can tell. Ran it in a terminal with CD inserted and saw some output as disc was recognised and began to play.. Also just stuck in CD and clicked on it which opened Gnome-MPlayer. What can it mean? I did find myself wondering whether it is periodically trying to get artwork, track details, etc from the net - no network connection at that stage. MP3 playback from USB stick no problem.
Machine is a ThinkPad R51. Live session.
00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)
Anyone seen this, got any ideas, etc? Afraid I haven't researched it at all.
Really weird 'cause that should be exactly the same as Puppy...you can of course manually copy the cd to a folder then point grub to it...that's what I do everytime I do a frugal anyway...I can walk you through that if you want...toddr wrote:All I have to say is PfluxLite is great! I have been looking for a very lite version of Lucid 5.1.1 and it was perfect.
My only issue is the installer bombs. I was able to install Puppy 5.1.1 on the same machine with no problems which has me puzzled. It goes through the install all the way through and even installs grub. But when I go to boot the new install, the only thing there is grub. weird
Sorry, that one I don't know, so I'll default to either dejan or 01micko on that one...I haven't run widgets on fluxbox...maxpro4u wrote:Seems that adding items to menu is pretty straightforward but I can't figure out how to add the correct commands to display pwidgets' add and remove widgets window.
guess I'll just have to wait. BTW I have done a full install of fluxbox on my armada.steve_s wrote:Sorry, that one I don't know, so I'll default to either dejan or 01micko on that one...I haven't run widgets on fluxbox...maxpro4u wrote:Seems that adding items to menu is pretty straightforward but I can't figure out how to add the correct commands to display pwidgets' add and remove widgets window.
