Saluki

[jemimah]

antiloquax,

You can test version 2 of the adrive builder if you like. It should heopfully make your work fast and easy.

Version 3 will be out for saluki-013 with a couple more features.

I would appreciate any feedback you have.

Also if you have pets you'd like to upload to the repo, just let me know.

Created a promo for Saluki (specifically the Beta 012) using online tools

This is quite easy to do - just screenshots.
I used Stupefix and Youtube editor

I apologize for my English.

The fbpanel (or lxpanel) pinstall.sh script makes symlinks in /var/icons/...
It collects icon paths from all the different locations, and puts all symlinks in 1 place...

Thanks, this almost worked. The problem is that many Saluki/XFCE *.desktop files have "Icon=filename" without extension. Also JWM can not handle svg files. So with my limited scripting I had ro resort to something like this

Code: Select all

for LINE in `find /usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/ -type f | grep -v \.svg` ; do ln -sf $LINE /var/local/icons/`basename $LINE | cut -f 1 -d '.'` 2> /dev/null ; done

That takes too long for the 7-8 directories needed to cover everything
Any faster/cleaner coding?

BTW, I do not "love" JWM but since is there why not use it fully?

PS: Turns out that BK's original variconlinks script with a bit of editing works faster, though still slow with so many folders.
BTW2, abiword does not have its icon in /usr/share/icons/../ but in /usr/share/pixmaps

Forgive me if this has already been reported, but the defaultimageviewer, Ristretto seg-faults in Saluki-12.

[elroy]

I posted it after someone else, too

Here's a link for the updated pet - http://smokey01.com/saluki/pet_packages ... 4-i486.pet

It seems that the adrive-2 has included this updated version.

[Tman]

Thanks for the link to the pet, elroy.

Yes there were periods when I wasn't following this thread fully.
I guess I could have sifted through it, but as it is now rather large. I was too lazy to do so.

[elroy]

No worries, Tman.

Actually, I posted some misinformation. I should have said jemimah's pet tarball for use in adrive-1 & adrive-2, which appears to have the updated version of the image viewer - http://smokey01.com/saluki/saluki-defau ... ges.tar.xz

Sorry for any confusion - syntax error

Hi jemimah,

Now that Saluki is humming on my eeepc Asus 701SD, the weather is suggesting an early spring, and my wife is threatening to drag me out on some geocaching hunts (and I remembered you had tangogps working under puppeee) I was wondering if you had the time/interest to create a tangogps pet for Saluki?

In passing, while you're still developing build_adrive, can it be adapted to generate an sfs for use in other Puplets (using pets for the same)? I appreciate that it wouldn't handle dependency checking, and that there are other apps for combining pets into an sfs, but I don't think any of them can handle as many pets at one time as build_adrive, nor as easily. It would be sufficient if all that was necessary after the build was to manually change the file's suffix.

And can build_adrive incorporate sfses? I probably could answer that myself if I (1) analyzed the code, or (2) experimented, but asking is easier.

It does allow sfses.

It probably makes more sense to build a separate general purpose sfs builder/combiner program. I'll add it to my todo list.

I'll see about tangogps. I think it's called foxtrot gps now. I think I had trouble getting it to compile last time I tried but I'll have another go.

@jemimah, great work. simply great. Thanks for this contribution and the progress it is demonstrating. I saw this:

... apps for combining pets into an sfs, but I don't think any of them can handle as many pets at one time as ... r

and thought I'd ask why is SFS a more compelling concept than PET. I know this is not the approrpiate place to ask this, but, all other places seem to be tainted in presentation.

If you feel an off-line post is proper, feel free to PM me.

Thanks again for your contribution(s).

Yes, adrive builder does allow SFS’s... I just realized that after another go with it. I added the google-chrome SFS to test, and it worked flawlessly. I still can’t believe how well this thing works for just being v2 (even v1 worked well, for that matter). jemimah, you mentioned in an earlier post that you were working on v3. Can you give any hints on what you’re cooking up for v3? I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t looking forward to the next thing you have up your sleeve.

[shevan]

This Package Compiz here http://www.mediafire.com/?h2s8l8boavncwvx

It works.

[jemimah]

I've added a compiz pet to the repo.

You can test it now if you like.

Version 3 allows you to rename your puplet, change the kernel, and disable the straight-to-desktop feature.

Pemasu's new kernel for saluki can be downloaded here:
http://www.smokey01.com/pemasu/Saluki/k ... reemptive/

If you rename your puplet I don't think the repos will work. That should be fixed in Saluki-013.

[morgonzola]

hi there, great puplet! works like a charm on my asus 1005hab. any chance of getting a xorg-full driver or opengl support?
