Carolina 0.0.4 has been released. To obtain the ISO/.delta file, please go to the first post on this thread and goto the 'News' section. Included in 004: * Thumbnails now display correctly in Thunar. * The latest gtkdialog4 (as of 26 NOV 2012). * A faster probepart script that eliminates the 'hanging' upon shutdown experienced with some notebook setups. * You can now drag 'n drop icons from the main menu or control panel to the desktop without the items being removed from their originating place. * A new default wallpaper (hopefully it'll be "friendly" enough for everyone). * Within Firefox, you can now go to 'Help/About', and Firefox will automatically download and install the latest version if a newer version is available. * Upon first running the new version of Carolina, in the Preferences dialog, the firewall button now works as it should. This is a bugfix. It was originally included in 003, but didn't work correctly. In 004, it works as it should. * When you open the puppy package manager, the Carolina repository list will automatically update itself so long as you're connected to the internet. Again, this was originally introduced in 003, but did not work correctly. In 004, it works as it should. Please note that if you're going to use other locations available in the repository (arch, wary, etc...), you'll want to update their package lists. But for Carolina, this will no longer be necessary so long as you have an internet connection. |

thanks elroy 
I actually caught the delta in the testing folder
This new one in the ISO directory seems to have a different md5 so I updated. I don't know if it's just on my notebook but pupsaveconfig and grub4dos on 004 can't find any partitions. Thanks |

Yeah, the one in 'testing' didn't have the permissions enabled for the /sbin/probepart.If you've downloaded from the expected place, hopefully you're not experiencing that. Either way, I'll look check it out and see if they're missing their permissions, too. EDIT: their permissions are ok (pupsavefonfig & grub4dos). The problem with the .delta in the 'testing' folder was the permission wasn't set for '/sbin/probepart'. The testing folder isn't meant for general use. If you choose to use anything in it, expect the worst  It's essentially used for Geofffrey and myself to pass items that need testing to each other. No warranty on those items...
EDIT-2: Don't download anything you find in the 'staging' folder. I use that for uploading, and then copy it to the needed place on the server. If you download from that, chances are you'll end up with a corrupt file. Last edited by elroy on Wed 28 Nov 2012, 00:23; edited 2 times in total |

Booted 003 in an older hp dt with standard led monitor and everything seemed to behave properly. Looks good. Now to try 4. Cheers |

Refer to my previous post, I checked almost all applications in carolina 04, everthing works fine. The only problem I got is that, the pupsave file option is not working (I always use FRUGAL Installation and never found this before i.e. No Partitions available...). I am posting the screenshot. Any Idea ??

Yeah, check to make sure that /sbin/probepart permission is set to be executable. I thought I did that, but maybe that's not the case. You can do this from the terminal by entering
If you got the delta from the 'testing' folder, then yes, that'd be the case. But if you downloaded the ISO/delta from the normal place then no, this shouldn't of happened. EDIT: My God, I must've been tired! The above command should've been...

I really don't wanna say "I told you so" but I'm gonna say it anyway... I told you so peace!
to umair: try to do a chmod 755 or change permissions using thunar... you'll be able to run pupsave and it will find partitions but you'll probably get hang time during shutdown. peace |

I've updated and my md5's all checkout correctly with the ones in the ISO directory... so it's the same, probepart is still not executable |

yes, that'd be correct. The /sbin/probepart isn't executable, even though I checked for that being it was an issue in lite-002. Regardless, it isn't, and I'm re-uploading... |

Uh? Can't find it? Went to p.1, item 1, saw the redirect to 'News', saw the redirect to 'Links', looked through the Parent Directory. Is it me?! Yes! A hint might help, though. |

elroy: I entered the command u mentioned, Returns with the error "bash: /sbin/probpart: No such file or directory". I downloaded the ISO thn also checked the md5sum. Found correct. Facing the same problem. Jpup: I can open (create/delete folders etc..) my all partitions from thunar and can mount/unmount them without any problem. But I m still getting the same error. UMAIR |

Okey dokey, it's this accursed timezone confabulation. Stuff coming in from West Coast, Oz, etc, thought I'd cracked jet-lag decades ago. I'm guessing that el el. hails from my favourite State, but it would really help if everbody's nationhood were displayed by default. Poor chap probably labouring through the night whilst we are just waking up, whereas the Aussies are already having their supper... Whatever - we are grateful - thanks! Presume the 'accident' doesn't affect lina-lite 003 which is arriving as we speak? Last edited by Sage on Wed 28 Nov 2012, 04:49; edited 1 time in total |
