You are right!Philh wrote:The retrovol volume setting doesnt get remembered when rebooting a usb frugal install but does with usb full.
I dont think it gets written to /etc/asound.state or that doesnt get saved.

query above, on missing dependency in pEqualizer.
Thanks in advance.
/usr/local/pequalizer/pequalizer has this:

if [ ! -f /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_ctl_equal.so ]; then
echo "Missing dependencies"
exit

However, that shared lib is at:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/alsa-lib/libasound_module_ctl_equal.so
I fixed that, then run /usr/local/pequalizer/pequalizer in a terminal:
Code: Select all
Failed to load plugin "/usr/lib/ladspa/caps.so": /usr/lib/ladspa/caps.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
That caps.so is in this deb:

which I installed, but then got another error:Code: Select all

OK, new pEqualizer PET created, version 1.0.1, see blog post:BarryK wrote:Fixed. Pequalizer needs two debs: caps and libasound2-lpugin-equal.BarryK wrote:There is a bug in pequalizer.Rodney Byne wrote:Hello Scottman,

The latter is actually package 'alsaequal'. Quirky had a alsaequal PET package, which does not work.
So, I will fix the pequalizer PET and have the correct libs in the next release.
Is anyone experiencing problems with pMusic?quirkian2new wrote:When playing mp3 files, pMusic suddenly mutes for about 10~20 seconds and then resume. Don't know why. Anyone have same experience ? Seems also in previous Quirky.
Oh I am still here occasionally just not active. I recently got a Pi3 to drive myself mad ...BarryK wrote:Hi lobster, good that you still come to the Puppy Forum sometimes!Lobster wrote:Many thanks for making an ISO version
Booted up ISO OK. Seemed fine from quick check. Decided to save a remastered boot DVD. (that is the boot straight into the file settings saved on my Hard Disk)
I don't think it burnt but it may have put a grub file on one of my HD.
... when I booted up the message in the enclosed image came up and I was stuck ...
I don't know what that image means. Does the PC still bootup with the original CD, and find the saved session?
Quirky has pBurn 4.3.16, the latest.Billtoo wrote:I couldn't get pburn to burn an iso file to a blank DVD, it failed twice and spoiled 2 blank DVDs.
I installed xfburn with QPM and it worked fine.
Yes, I have read your previous posts about problems with Swiss German keyboard layout. I haven't responded so far, as didn't know what to do about it. Still don't.lp-dolittle wrote:Thank you Barry very much for Quirky Xerus64 8.2 final!
unfortunately, Intel graphics chipsets on some laptops (e.g. Dell Latitude 6500) seem to cause similar problems as I was faced with when I tried to permanently set up Swiss German keyboard layout using Easy Linux 0.2 pre-alpha (see post from May 20th 2017 in the Easy Linux thread).
Not only the setting itself proves to be 'quirky', but every finally successful configuration is spontaneously reset to the US layout after a restart of X, even if previously saved!
Loading of the intel-gpu-tools pet did not help.
On a Dell Vostro 1730 (NVIDIA VGA controller) the keyboard layout setting works fine
how to amend this issue?
Ha ha, that one has been off my radar for sometime!don570 wrote:I still have the same problem with crond
4 hours difference when setting alarms with pschedule (or pclock)
ie for alarm at 9:30 i set it for 13:30
I use local time because I use Windows computer.
Note that the date --utc command gives the correct value for UTC time.
Everything is fine except for crond

- 2 folders are not needed anymore :
/usr/share/midi-icons #symlink
/usr/share/mini-icons #symlink
OK, fixed.- another typo found : audio is missing in /etc/gshadow
solution is to add this line "audio:::root,spot,fido" in /etc/gshadow
OK, fixed, but only in the templates folder in woofQ. This means it is fixed when using jwm package from a host-distro, however not for a jwm PET.- in .jwmrc-tray , there are some obsolete entries : blinkydelayed, xtmix, asapmshell...
Is it an external dvd drive?Lobster wrote:
OK some progress ...
I disabled all UEFI BIOS boot options which Quirky did not like. Both Slacko and Antergros Linux did not mind them . . .
Have managed to boot into the original Quirky 8.2 WITH the save options enabled
I do not think the boot to HD directory remaster was written to but that may be a hardware issue around speed of the DVD drive that was also happening in Slacko . . .

Set a breakpoint on '_pixman_log_error' to debugBarryK wrote:JWMDesk (or maybe just the font button) seems to break fonts in urxvt and JWM. They go from smooth to rough permanently, regardless of the state of the 3 checkboxes.
It seems the font problem zygo experienced is due to /usr/sbin/fontwizard which overrides some of the settings in Quirky's very-detailed /etc/fonts/fonts.conf, even when the checkboxes in fontwizard are unticked.There are some earlier posts about fonts. Maybe JWMDesk is expecting fonts to be there that aren't. We will have to ask radky to investigate this.
radky wrote:Since the Puppy fontwizard has been available for several years, I assume no one noticed the problem previously because the system font settings in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf were minimal in legacy Pups and were not impacted by the fontwizard's local settings in /etc/fonts/local.conf.
Attached is a revised /usr/sbin/fontwizard which does not override settings in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf, unless the fontwizard checkboxes are explictly ticked. The GUI includes one additional user option, RGBA or sub-pixel rendering, which provides optional font smoothing by modulation of RGB subpixel colors. Users can always return to the default font settings of Quirky by selecting only the checkbox for RGBA.
Also, in testing, the original fontwizard failed to exit properly in some scenarios. This is fixed in the attached revision. Just remove the fake gz extension and make the file executable.
