Polarpup-005 with Qt4-4.8.0 and Gstreamer libs inbuild
Hi pemasu,
Check Qtractor compile and it recognises Qt with the redefinition PET - thanks.

On a different note-
Polarpup has the F11 fullscreen bug with firefox - you can't exit fullscreen.
this can be cleared up with-

finally, made page for Polar pup on Wiki-
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/PolarPup
Oh yes...jwm bug can be fixed with that or update to the newer jwm-574.

Good to hear that you got it working. I know the feeling when you have worked hard for a goal and you manage in your aim.
And nice wiki page also. Thank you of that.

Hi pemasu:
I recently had to reinstall polarpop 005. Everything went ok. Except, now when I close the laptop lid, suspend does not function. It functions well from shutdown menu though. It used to work on my previous install. I did reformat the same partition where I had it installed before. It was a frugal and still is a frugal install on my Thinkpad R60.
Could you advise please?

Here it is :pemasu wrote:Could you post the /etc/acpi/sleep.sh script content.
#!/bin/bash
[ -e /tmp/suspend ] && exit
touch /tmp/suspend
sleep .2
PID=`ps -e |grep "sleep.sh$" |sort -n|head -n 1|cut -f1 -d\ `
[ $$ != $PID ] && exit
which acpitool
if [[ $? != 0 ]] ;then
notify-send "You Need to Install Acpitool to Enable Suspend" -u critical -i dialog-error
else
notify-send "Suspending to RAM" -i xscreensaver
/usr/local/Frisbee/disconnect
rfkill unblock all
acpitool -s
sleep 2
acpitool -a |grep on-line
if [[ $? == 0 ]] ; then
/etc/acpi/performance.sh
else
/etc/acpi/powersave.sh
fi
sleep 2
/usr/local/Frisbee/connect
fi
rm /tmp/suspend
I believe it is that notify-send which gives hiccup. So try this version which is without it. Just replace the code with the code below and try....
Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
[ -e /tmp/suspend ] && exit
touch /tmp/suspend
sleep .2
# do not suspend at shutdown proccess
PS=$(ps)
echo "$PS"| grep -q "sh[ ].*poweroff" && exit
PID=`ps -e |grep "sleep.sh$" |sort -n|head -n 1|cut -f1 -d\ `
[ $$ != $PID ] && exit
/usr/local/Frisbee/disconnect
rfkill unblock all
acpitool -s
sleep 2
acpitool -a |grep on-line
if [[ $? == 0 ]] ; then
/etc/acpi/performance.sh
else
/etc/acpi/powersave.sh
fi
sleep 2
/usr/local/Frisbee/connect
rm /tmp/suspend
And here is my previously created fixed package. I suppose it is still valid. This pet replaces those /etc/acpi files which needs to be replaced.

Thanks! It now works OK. However, on resume, although Frisbee connection establishes, the Frisbee icon on the system try remains as non-connected. That is two monitors icon instead of a circle. This will switch to a circle by just clicking on the Frisbee icon, and exiting the ensuing Frisbee dialogue box.

I did have fairly bad cascade of hazards. I did move my laptop linux hdd content to my development 1 Tb usb hdd so that I had partition for full install experiments. It was meant to be temporary solution for couple of days. I did find a solution to dpup full install frozen usb mouse and I used the full install to create the next fixed dpup exprimo. During that woof process...in the middle of devx sfs creation by woof script the usb hdd decided to die. The reading head broke and I got only click...click...click from it. No way to get it recognized as usb hdd anymore.....I didnt lose everything but I did lose all my Polarpup work...the woof used for it.
I have now spent 3 days....evenings...nights to get my dpup woof stuff back in condition. I am now almost there. Probably I will need to replace package here and there...but I have now ready platform for it. I did lose my kernel-kit but I have built it back for my kernel needs. I didnt lose my qt4 stuff, they were safe in other location.
But my work to create next Polarpup is gone and also all my previous builds. Due to that temporary moving of my linux partition content to that usb hdd. There is no way back. I just dont have time to start again with Polarpup. I do have working qt4 environment with dpup and I am going to use it and compile slowly more apps for it. Latest was Stellarium.
I might-could create an updated remastered Polarpup with some fixes though but that wouldnt be new build with new woof. More or less quick update by updating Firefox....some othe stuff. But...not sure yet. I will be quit busy once again with my other activities.
I can check the gstreamer - Libreoffice sound problem....but I would need sample file to play with. I cant debug the problem without having test material.

Sorry for what has happened! It is unfortunate because as I had indicated before in this thread Polar005 was a gem for me and my Thinkpad R60 laptop. It was functioning perfect before I accidentally messed up with it and had to reinstall it when all these new glitches started. I feel sorry about it and will miss it.
I have attached a nice pps slide show with a nice audio for you to enjoy and test the Libre Office Impress if you get to that point.
Thanks!

I had problem with uploading of attachment. Several times I went through the process of attaching the file and submitting it. Every time I got the error message "Tried to upload an empty file" I was not able to resolve this issue. Tell me how to attach it and I will gladly do it.
