Needed DEVs missing in the devx_tahr-583.sfs.
I am not sure on the libxcb-xvmc0_1.10 runtime package mystery.configure options:Code: Select all

I made a wrapper script to make 'disable-screensaver' effective.

Hopefully fixes the vlc/avconv related bug drawn to my attention by user Saborima who was testing previous version in tahrpup. It only effected machines using avconv (which would hang on record) rather than ffmpeg as it turns out. Download:

This pAVrecord 9.0.4 one may work correctly in tahrpup but needs comprehensive testing by tahrpup users.

xscreensaver is my arch enemy!! whilst trying and succeeding to get it working on precise i managed to mess up permissions throughout the whole system including my harddrives! and vowed never to have anything to do with it againsszindian wrote:Testing into some of the off-wall stuff:
Installed from the PPM xscreensaver... it seems all the standard screensavers in it work as they should with the exception of the GL things (Carousel, Slideshow) Anyway the Carousel works BUT No Pictures display. We had this problem in Slacko's but 'SFR' came up with a fix there so Carousel works -
Code: (In Terminal)- su spot -c xscreensaver-demo - but this doesn't work in Tahrpup/
I've installed all the programs available for xscreensaver from the PPM so nothing is missing from there.
Any suggestions?
So far, Tahrpup is working well and no serious problems encountered to date... Your update stuff through quickpet is very nice, wish all developers would go that route!

Error: packages are not available
iproute2-2.6.29-1-w5pet module-init-tools-3.16-w5c.pet
the installation has been aborted.
Any idea how to solve this? Used to Debian/Ubuntu and then usually everything is automatically downloaded and installed.
BTW... I did update the repository - that didn't work. It keeps on asking me to install the downloads local. And when I do it seems to do nothing (nothing is saved)
Thanks a lot! That fixed it indeed. Nice updating / fixing method btw. You have created a very user friendly Puppy.666philb wrote: can you let me know if it fixes it for you

wake on lan is not enabled, but after rebooting I faced a more problematic issue. I had encrypted (light) my save file and after rebooting my password was accepted, but the savefile couldn't be mounted and a password was requested to solve the issue.666philb wrote:hi Tm_mT,
can you check if 'wake on lan' is enabled in the bios, and if so disable it .. then see if shutdown works then.
another thing to try is one of the other kernels see if that solves it http://ftp.nluug.nl/os/Linux/distr/pupp ... r/kernels/ just unzip and copy the vmlinuz and zdrv.sfs over the installed ones then reboot
