If Perl was installed through PPM, remove it with any and all associated pkgs in favor of this 139mb devx.

Hi All,
It is now December 20, 2015.
I'm running Tahrpup 602 with rcrsn51 driver updates and service pack 603 provided by Puppy Package Manager.
I downloaded Frozen Bubbles through PPM.
Perl was auto downloaded through PPM.
Frozen Bubbles is installed but not responding.
Has there been any changes that would make Frozen Bubbles work in Tahrpup 602 PAE since this thread began?
Thank you in advance for any good news.

try installing the devx. sfs as puppy has its perl there

666philb and semme

Yes, success with Precise 571 PAE using your devx suggestion.
I'm still working on Tahrpup 602 PAE. (not working yet).

Thank you

fires up here .... try running it from a terminal

Puppy Package Manager downloads acres of Perl data automatically when frozen-bubble is requested through PPM on Tahrpup.

Starting from scratch...I've uninstalled all the Perl data and frozen-bubble module.
Shall I go ahead and download frozen-bubble again and all the Perl data then uninstall the Perl data leaving only frozen-bubble_2.212 module?
Then place frozen-bubble module next to tahrpup sfs and devx sfs on the live USB stick?

Does it make any difference what the medium is?
Precise is running from Live CD with save on a HDD (Precise is on different machine than Tahrpup).
Tahrpup is running from USB flash drive only, no HDD on machine.
Devx sfs is loaded next to tahrpup save and tahrpup sfs on USB flash drive.


I tried copying Frozen-Bubble-2.2.0 directory from the successful Precise install to a flash drive then transferred it to /mnt/home on Tahrpup. No go.

from the ppm uninstall just frozen bubble..... then make sure the devx is loaded and reinstall frozen-bubble and all its dependencies.... including all the extra perl stuff

Hi 666phil,

I think the simple solution here is to make a usb flash drive with Precise 571 Pae and pop that Puppy in the machine when the Frozen Bubble urge bubbles up.



What do you think?

[666philb]

that's the wrong devx for tahrpup! unload it and grab tahrs from quickpet
