Doesn't the current .pet format support installation scripts? Can't you just keep the standard mode as Xv and add
Code:
mv /root/.mplayer/config /root/.mplayer/config.bak
cat /root/.mplayer/config.bak | sed s/'x11'/'xv'/g > /root/.mplayer/config
This is on thelist to implement and test, but this problem with the sound came up.

Wot no mtpaint or screen capture in the menu?
I did the above in inkscapelite
could not export - so looked for screen capture
Not in menu
Had to run from mtpaint directly . . .
no mtpaint in menu either . . .
I hurried the luci-241 because of the sound issue. Sorry.

Of course, there are rear-corner cases, such as pfix=nox fans ... but this code could be placed pretty much anywhere. Even /etc/profile is good enough.

In fact, /etc/profile is a good location - it runs when the shell starts, so if the code goes there, it's the first thing that runs after inittab.
Please don't do that because then one does not have the option of having startup sounds before X has loaded/run. That works well for startup sounds like "Initiating Startup Sequence"

Since upgrading from Luci240 to 241 Osmo immediately crashed on opening. Reverting to previous libdbus-glib-1.so.2.1.0 solves problem.

Code: Select all

 rm -f /etc/init.d/10alsa
*reboot
*report success or failure

if you need to restore.. ie- fails (frugal types only, usb included) type:

Code: Select all

cp -f /initrd/pup_ro2/etc/init.d/10alsa /etc/init.d/10alsa
Cheers

(note, it isn't the correct fix as woof goes, but it may have to do)
Works fine on my frugal install of 241......already rebooted several times and sound has been persistent.
Now to try this in my Luci-241 Trinity install..... :lol:

Right, just checked this on Luci 241. I ran ALSA Sound Wizard first, then entered the command in the console. Both of my machines retained sound after rebooting.

Removing 10alsa also solves my problem of the volume levels being changed--even though it wasn't all the way muted.

Had low sound on startup, adjusted retrovol settings as shown which gives great sound on my hardware.

Rebooted, all settings on retrovol were at zero except master which was at 100%. Sound level very low. Readjusted retrovol settings, executed

Code: Select all

rm -f /etc/init.d/10alsa 
in a console and rebooted. Retrovol settings were retained. Your code did the job.

Overall, luci-241 looks great.

Thanks,
Jim

Except for all the stuff I forgot in a hurry to get it out ;-)

No worries. FYI, When the Woof settles, then our next version, should be luci-242, will be a feature freeze. That means nothing but bug fixes until release. Previously we have frozen about 2-3 weeks before release. This time we hope for 2 weeks. IMHO that is very important for quality control.

Yes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
mtpaint deserves special treatment now, since I left it off the menu.
There is a nice new pet with the NLS support and another nice new pet with the HTML documentation. They should work for the version 3.34.57 in lcui-241. The menu items will return in luci-242.

Terryphi, Had you installed anything else? In luci-241, Osmo works for me.

Appears to be working normally here in 241 as well.

A couple of people have reported inconsistencies in disk space reported in Partview, if anyone could pursue that. Thanks.

Fresh full hd installation of luci-241 had a few minor problems.

1. The code 01micko posted corrected the low volume situation.

2. Problems that are only present with full hd installation:
  • a. Default media player opens but will not play. To correct, I changed default to VLC.

    b. Personalize Setting does not come up on initial boot. When tried from the menu, it would not open on first try. Subsequent trys, it opens and works properly.
Cheers,
Jim
