I installed frugal to hard disk.
It works well. Here's my observations so far.
I found 2 windows XP apps that will work with Wine.
Lucky Backup ---> http://luckybackup.sourceforge.net/download.html
mp3DirectCut ---> http://mpesch3.de1.cc/mp3dc.html
For editing mp3 files directly.

This adds a search to a hard disk .
pupmd5sum 1.4 ---> http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=84019

I set up my wacom tablet.
The xorg driver is already installed by default
However I had to make the operating system recognize the driver
by using the old method of
Code: |
depmod
modprobe wacom
|
Also changing the xorg.conf file
(the path is /etc/X11/xorg.conf )
You must now modify this new xorg.conf file with a text editor.
Here's my 'Server Layout' for a Bamboo tablet
Code: |
Section "ServerLayout"
# For non-LCD tablets only
# Only a few TabletPCs support this type
# For Intuos3/CintiqV5/Graphire4/Bamboo tablets
Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "touch" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "pad"
EndSection
|
and then after the definitions of mouse and keyboard
I inserted
Code: |
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "stylus"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # USB ONLY
Option "Type" "stylus"
Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "eraser"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # USB ONLY
Option "Type" "eraser"
Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "cursor"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # USB ONLY
Option "Type" "cursor"
Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "pad"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # USB ONLY
Option "Type" "pad"
Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "touch"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # USB ONLY
Option "Type" "touch"
Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY
EndSection
|
Then restart X
The pen is now properly recognized, however GIMP needs to be setup for input device.

@csipesz, I tried booting the ISO file in a qemu virtual machine, but it failed with this message
Code: |
SeaBIOS (version...)
iPXE ...
Booting from DVD/CD
ISOLINUX 3.73 ...: Image checksum error, sorry...
Boot failed: press a key to retry...
|
This is the md5 checksum
c13d3e1b52549e3c7b71bbcde693657b precise-5.7.1Retro-CsipeszPup-Rev16EngHun2017May.iso
Is it correct?
Do you know if your ISO can boot in a qemu virtual machine?
Thank you

Try the following with the openbox window manager:
After a search for a file, right click on a name on the hit list
and choose an operation. The right click menu that pops up
forms an independent window that is hard to close.
I find that I have to quit pfind.

I've little experience with a qemu virtual machine,
but I would suggest burning the hungarian precise ISO to a CD
(Make sure it works by booting up an old computer with it)
Then proceed to see if you can boot from qeum using the actual CD.
(but maybe you don't have a CD player and this can't be done)
Here's a reference...
https://linux-tips.com/t/booting-from-an-iso-image-using-qemu/136
Quote: | It is also possible to use your regular cdrom device too. If the device is /dev/cdrom you can boot a cd in the device like that:
qemu-system-x86_64 -boot d -cdrom /dev/cdrom -m 512 |

I recommend a portable burner
LG GP-30 DVD writer
Very useful to have around.

I checked if my version of GIMP 2.8.22 (june 2017)
would work in "CsipeszPup" and to my surprise it does,
including gmic plugins. I included foreign languages as separate package.
