this is too funny, I built another test release with a untouched version of firefox and it didn't work I then moved the firefox folder to root and it worked, I then moved it back to /lib and it worked. man this is strange

Just skimming through initrd_sbin/init, I'd say that the absolutely simplest way to avoid the automatic, possibly disastrous, grabbing of a save-file is to always offer a choice, lines 615ff of initrd_sbin/init: | Quote: | # gives user option of choosing pupsave. if only one exists selects it
choose_pupsave_func(){
## set PUPSAVE
#set -- $ALLPUPSAVES # just pass it to function...
#if [ $# -eq 1 ];then # only one pup_save -- use it
# PUPSAVE="$1"
#elif [ $# -gt 1 ];then # more than one -- ask which to use
echo -e "\\033[1;36mPLEASE CHOOSE WHICH SAVE FILE TO USE" >/dev/console
echo "0 none" >/dev/console
CNT3FS=1
for ASAVE in $@
do
APART=${ASAVE%,*} ; APART=${APART#*,}
case "$ASAVE" in
*.[23]fs) # pup_save file
AFILE=${ASAVE##*,}
echo -e "$CNT3FS Partition: $APART\tFile: $AFILE" >/dev/console
;;
*_install_3) # installed to part
AVER=${ASAVE%%_*} ; AVER=${AVER#*Puppy}
echo -e "$CNT3FS Partition: $APART\tPuppy $AVER install" >/dev/console
;;
*) # will be files saved to partition: PUPMODE 6/7
echo -e "$CNT3FS Partition: $APART\tSettings saved directly to partition" >/dev/console
;;
esac
let CNT3FS=CNT3FS+1
done
echo -en "Please type a number then press ENTER key: \\033[0;39m" >/dev/console
read NUM3FS
clear #v2.12
if [ $NUM3FS -gt 0 ];then
eval PUPSAVE=\$$NUM3FS
fi
#fi #if [ $# -eq 1 ]
## end set PUPSAVE

Hi MHHP,
I would prefer to change this to offer a choise when there is one pup_save file or more and not always. I think this can do the trick:
| Quote: | # gives user option of choosing pupsave. if only one exists selects it
choose_pupsave_func(){
## set PUPSAVE
#set -- $ALLPUPSAVES # just pass it to function...
#if [ $# -eq 1 ];then # only one pup_save -- use it
# PUPSAVE="$1"
if [ $# -gt 0 ];then # one or more than one -- ask which to use
echo -e "\\033[1;36mPLEASE CHOOSE WHICH SAVE FILE TO USE" >/dev/console
|
Regards,
clarf

Hi, clarf!
That looks a tad bit better than my skim-through quick-'n'-easy solution above .
Cheers / MHHP

using pidgin or gaim in Classic Pup |
|
How to use pidgin on 2.14.10?
I installed gaim with the package manager, but it doesn't work: it seems to be lacking gtk+. How can I install that?
Or can i just use the .pet of pidgin for 431?
Thanks

Bruno - you could give this .pet file a try for installing the newer Pidgin 2.10.6...?

Thanks darkstrike,
but that .pet doesn't work
After installing, it gives a long list of missing libraries

Yeah, that one was for Puppy 4, but I figured I would see if it worked for you or not - didn't know how many dependencies it required.

Which version? |
|
Hy, guys.
I know this is not active in the last... years but I need to know among the 2.14 versions which one is the last.
I am trying to make a PentiumIII work less sluggish. With Precise Puppy (5.4) it got surprisingly slow
I'm talking about a fully installed Puppy to use the machine for real, for work (school).
Cheers!
Gonzalo
