gimp-2.6.12-Lucid-1.sfs |
|
I have made gimp-2.6.12-Lucid-1.sfs.
http://shino.pos.to/party/bridge.cgi?puppy/opt/pup5/gimp-2.6.12-Lucid-1.sfs
Contents: all the files in the gimp-2.6.12-Lucid.pet playdayz made + translations + ROX settings. Note that no development files.
Tested on lupu-528JP05(now developping based on Lupu-528-05). Not tested yet on other Puppies.
FYI: translations are under /usr/share/locale, ROX settings are under /root and under /usr/local/apps/ROX-Filer.

Thanks shinobar. I will post the NLS and BuiltinHelp pets I mentioned for people who might prefer those. I guess you figured out that I used Debian wheezy (testing) 2.6.12--I should have mentioned that.

Well, to answer the question.
When is the Gecko-mplayer plugin ever used?
Using Firefox 12 browser, this video played using the Gecko-mplayer plugin.
(It actually causes Gnome-Mplayer to play the video) |
Yes Bigppup. I am surprised to find that Google Chrome needs and uses the gecko-mediaplayer plugin to play this video. Since it has its own ffmpeg I wouldn't have predicted that, but if I remove gecko-medipalyer then Chrome just downloads the video.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gnome-mplayer 1.0.6 below is the one that has been tested for a couple of weeks. Gnome-mplayer NLS is the Native Language Support files for Gnome-mplayer.
Gnome-Mplayer 1.0.6 ->
ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pet-packages-lucid/gnome-mplayer-1.0.6-Lucid.pet
Gnome-Mplayer NLS 1.0.6 ->
ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pet-packages-lucid/gnome-mplayer_NLS-1.0.6-Lucid.pet

Maybe I should start a new thread?
I did an upgrade sort of. I had lupu 528-005 with an old version of FF 3.6 ...
So I wanted the latest FF 12 instead but too lazy to start all over with pfix=ram
so I made a frugal install reusing the old savefile but uninstalled the old FF
and installed the latest instead.
That made me lose the automatic connection to internet so each time I boot
I need to do a manual connection to internet by clicking on icon in tray
and wait for it to resolve an IP.
Is there a file to edit to make it do this automatically instead?
I remember vaguely that way back when we had lupu 525 there where talk
about a program in Menu that could make it reconnect but would that solve
this no connect too? okay I should try maybe it helps. Any suggestion?
Here is a thread about similar problem for Slacko?

Nooby,
I have had similar problems with Lupu528. Try Frisbee. Menu>Internet>Frisbee installer. It has fixed several installations for me. Good luck!

Yes I tried Frisbee and are using it now.
Jay that solved it for me. So much appreciated you cared to tell me.

Not sure if this has been posted before.
GUI to download LibreOffice
get_libreoffice-0.15.pet
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=65918
This is not Playdayz's tweaked version of LibreOffice.
It is a program that is suppose to get the latest version of the normal LibreOffice.
Says it is beta, but the latest version 0.15 seems to be reported as working good.

This is not Playdayz's tweaked version of LibreOffice. |
My tweak was just a slight adjustment to one of the desktop files and I think 01micko has included that, so this is the one to use.
Just to be clear, the possible advantage to using one of the Libre versions of Lupu or 3HD or FatSlacko is that Libre Office is built-in to the sfs and therefore loads into ram and will startup and run somewhat faster.

Use Darkcity's Audacity-2.0.0-i486.pet, it works well for me in LupuPlusLibre. [/url]http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=629947#629947[url]

Hi Playdayz,
Thanks a lot for providing the .pet of the Google Chrome-19. This has been the very first time I've tried it since... oh... perhaps version 4 or 5. I see now what the hype is all about - especially when it comes to the speed of this thing! I dare say that it is nearly as fast as Dillo-3.0.2 which I normally use around here when in 3HD ( 95% of my time BTW ).
Simply incredible...
Again: Thanks for providing this browser. It'll be rather fascinating using this for a spell.
Cheers/Amicalement,
Eyes-Only

Hi Eyes-Only, One other possible advantage of Chrome is that Flashplayer is built-in so that the external Flashplayer is not needed.
A possible mod to Chrome is that under "The Wrench" -> Settings -> Show Advanced Settings -> Privacy one can turn off some options which *might* insure that info is not sent to Google and *might* improve the quickness of the browser.
Quote: | Use a web service to help resolve navigation errors
Use a prediction service to help complete searches and URLs typed in the address bar
Predict network actions to improve page load performance
Enable phishing and malware protection
|
Additionally, in /usr/bin/google-chrome one could add the command line option --disable-metrics which *in some versions* of Chrome was said to turn off the collection of info that would be sent to Google--thereby not sending info and again possibly speeding up the browser. I am not sure if this works in Chrome 19.

Thanks for the tips Playdayz. Actually, I'd already done the advanced settings having had those presented to me during setup of the browser. However, I was unaware of the "metrics" one you mentioned. Thanks!
Cheers!
