1. Multiple Soundcard Wizard missing.

Thanks, fixed.

I have had much other stuff to do, but now back onto fixing things in Precise Puppy. I intend to bring out alpha3 soon.

A bit of searching, and found a little pet called Multiple Sound Wizard Pet.

http://smokey01.com/Tman/apps/Multiple_Soundcard_Wizard.pet

Might do the trick.

The official PET is:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_packages-noarch/mscw-2.pet

Now added to pkg list for Precise Puppy build.

bug ???????? Rolling Eyes

Bcrypt works for me too. But maybe that's because I am running a later Precise Puppy with many bug fixes.

There is no doubt, there are serious 'Cups' issues?

I am reluctant to spend much time on these proof-of-concept Pupplets. Like Drake before it, I don't expect that Precise is going anywhere.

However, here are some quick fixes.

1. Install the PET below.

2. Open the file /usr/share/cups/mime/mime.convs.

3. UNcomment line 41 - "application/pdf ....."

4. Restart CUPS.

Thanks for the temporary fix. I found that another DEB package is needed, 'cups-filters'. This has the missing 'pdftops', it also has a mime.convs with appropriate lines uncommented.

The next precise, alpha3, should hopefully have fixed this problem.

Xsane scanner from graphics in Precise is just a ‘no go’ period, it is not even recognized?

You may well be right and Precise may never get going and I'm not really sure if BK wants it to get going, I believe it's more of a personal build he wanted... but I figure if BK took the time to create it, and make it available, someone may be able to use it, so... I'll give some time testing for him. I will say, what does work works very nice in Precise!

Xsane is working now, for me anyway. Expect it ok on alpha3 release.

Yeah, I want it for the ARM port, as binaries are compiled for armv7 CPUs.

There is quite a high level of interest, also see pemasu's Upup thread.

So, I am moving ahead with debugging it.

while trying to test print and also many other function, it asks the password for printing. I would like to install Canon Network Printer cum Photostat IR6055 on Puppy. However, due to problem, I was not able to print.
