No. JWM has to read the config file and this has to be set up. For now I am back on the Debian. _________________ Puppy Raspup 8.2 Final

I have JWM running on Arch Arm. My .jwmrc is pretty useless, points to lots of stuff that isn't there! I can open a terminal though. Next job is to get ROX working. mark

Sorry aarf 
Well, first of all I extracted the root file system from the arch image. Run the command:
This will tell you that there are two partitions. We want to extract the second one, which is ext3.
Now I have found that this doesn't always work first time. To check your file, try:
If gparted shows an ext3 partition, good. If not, try again. When you have successfully got a file-system in arch.ext3, you can run it in qemu. Next you need a kernel. This one works. I logged in as root. Then I installed a few things: pacman -S xorg-server xorg-xinit xorg-server-utils xf86-video-fbdev That should make it possible to run jwm. Then I got xterm and rox pacman -S xterm rox Now if you run: xinit /usr/bin jwm JWM should start. Most of the menu items don't work (they point at programs that are not there!) But you should be able to launch the terminal and then run rox from there. I am on a steep learning curve here! _________________ My System:Arch-Arm on RPi! "RacyPy" puplet on Toshiba Tecra 8200.

well done antiloquax thanks for the info
The steeper the curve, the better the view. . . . meanwhile in Debian I installed synaptic. . . . it was so slow I went to watch some paint dry for light relief . . . eventually midori and snaptic collapsed and locked up the pi Learned some more apt-get commands, looked for squeeze ARM lists online - just going to the right FTP servers might be quicker then zzzznaptic will try again with snaptic - need to know what progs are available . . . To credit Debian, Scratch is fast and the Rpi is designed as a teaching computer so Debian are focused There is also an emphasis on Python editors and tools For Raspberry PupPy we have a series of spec to work towards: Run in the 256MB ram of the Pi This means we can lock the SD card if we wish and write to a second device for config and data e.g. a keydrive. It also means calling from memory cache rather than SD Recognizable Puppy scripts and programs JWM - Joes Window Manager Rox File Manager Puppy Package Manager and/or ARMpet based on Quickpet/Slickpet Puppy Control Panel Puppy Soft Phone Puppy GROWL Security Mhwavedit MoManager - create non-English Puppy Puppy Cloud support, Meebo, Gmail, Yahoo, IRC etc Transmission bit torrent Emergency Yodel button - optional

I need a bit of help! I have been editing system.jmrc, but I realise that I should have set up something else (is it __root__.jmrc or something?) Anyway, if anyone can tell me how, or where to look, I'd appreciate it. So far I have changed the menus so they only show the things that work (geany, rox and Python). I've also changed the start menu label to "PupPy". This version of arch doesn't seem to have many icons included, but I have a menu icon for geany! I've made the desktop a nice red colour and written an xorg.conf so I have an 800x600 screen. Wallpaper will have to wait until I get home (I don't have internet on the set-up I am using at the moment). I would like to know how to get the pinboard working. So far I cannot put things on the desktop. _________________ My System:Arch-Arm on RPi! "RacyPy" puplet on Toshiba Tecra 8200. PIII, 256 MB RAM. RaspberryPy: Lobster and I blog about the RPi. |

look in etc/system.jwmrc meanwhile . . . installed chromium-browser in Debian Squeeze So far faster and more reliable than the default midori _________________ Puppy Raspup 8.2 Final
