everybody is gone away ???
Problems with libavcodec (56 and apps from PPM needs 57) Parole was the app concerned
Solution is to run versions from Precise, Even From Lucid (audacity)
Browser Light 49 no crash until now. Audio and Video playing Well you tube
Archpup Promoted by el tropicalissimo ambassador Nilson Morales and s-kami from Hungarian Puppy team on their local forum for people speaking magyar. A Puppy version can be ignored by USA citizens and in the charts of barbarians countries.
Apps :
Gnee could make a come-back.. People failed in the past, but Ten Years After, they are now more powerful.
What is Gnee ? a terrific machine

At last - a sensible comment that deserves a reply.....
ArtfulPup has an older ffmpeg compile (ffmpeg-2.8.13) in order for a test .flac file from 666philb to play properly.....
So there is a conundrum - ship an up-to-date version (ffmpeg-3.x) to be compatible with Ubuntu repositories but have problems with .flac files
or
the current situation - ship an old version....
What I will do is make the newer version available from PPM so that it can be installed if needed for compatibility with Ubuntu packages
If anybody knows how to make our petbuild of ffmpeg-3.x play .flac files then please shout

Using this option calling ffmpeg to play older flac files might help.

On LxPupSc with ffmpeg-3.3.2
if I open the test .flac with pMusic then it does not play correctly
but
if I open it with gnome-mplayer it does play correctly
So may be a pMusic problem....??
I'll report it on the pMusic thread.

if you do a PPM database update
Please test it with apps requiring libavcodec-57 from the Ubuntu repos.....

I tried Parole just to see because Parole was in the PPM, i will try with another one, and feedback here.
Gnome-Mplayer allows people playing all supports, only DVD to verify.

Smtube works fine if you install it properly.
I wonder though what was installed and how as PPM installation fails because the pmv-20150814-git-i686-precise (!) dependency is missing.
Is actually not required (the ubuntu pmv is fine) but somehow it sneaked in the puppy-artful-official packages and blocks PPM installation
Bottom line:
till the ibiblio file is updated, delete the pmv-20150814-git-i686-precise entry from /root/.packages/Packages-puppy-artful-official.
Open PPM and install smtube and dependencies.
Run smtube and click the log button of smplayer if it complains.
Install the libraries that it says is missing through PPM (in my case libva-*-1.8.3-2)

Lost icons and trouble to mount units
Today I installed LxArtfulPup and it works great. Thanks! However, some things caught my atention:
- Why do I see warnings (fuser related) when modifying fstab to mount a ntfs partition? Is there a new way to mount units I don't know? Because first, fstab is empty and second, if I add the partition and reload, I see it twice (in pcmanfm for instance -but with different icons-) but if I don't, it's not mounted (on reload).
- Why does Puppy Package Manager show no icons now in results hits when searching?
- This one is minor, but in Notecase Notes Manager, icons for "save" and "save as" are not shown.
Any pointer apreciated and if it comes I post this misplaced, I apologize. Thanks!

I'm such a moron :-/ Sorry, my bad.
Re: Lost icons and trouble to mount units
You're right - package type icons are missing in PPM in ArtfulPup compared to XenialPup.....01101001b wrote: - Why does Puppy Package Manager show no icons now in results hits when searching?
No idea why - probably some sort of iconset issue?? Perhaps @mavrothal can suggest the reason?
pMount is in the menu under Filesystem BTW....plus in LxPupArtful when using PcManFM - just click on the partition to mount it.

i worry about that..icons ppm missing..
icons ppm missing... in the menu too, not only for U-light, when you install new apps. That is true.. i worry about that.. but i will not loose time with that.
What is more my cup of tea is why apt-get find apps that PPM does not..
They are not many, but they are.. (from Xenial Packages)
Then when these really tiny bugs are solved where is the difference between a Dpup-stretch and Slacko and 'Ubuntu's Puppies.. in what they produce, not in how they produce.. The package source is the same
That is not very exciting.. gnee would be more exciting when somebody makes it work.. The process is known under Windows, however prohibited in multi users systems.
It repeats a sequence of mouse clicks and keyboards inputs (it should do it, it was created for it)
Lot of packages are to try from the PPM, even those for which the icon is missing.
needs="X11"\
section="Applications/Programming"\
title="GNU gnee"\
command="gnee"\
icon="/usr/share/pixmaps/xnee.xpm"
Programming ? Gnee is for you !

I'm running ArtfulPup as my daily on my i5 based laptop and have my must-haves working well in it. An integrated, albeit non-gvfs, pcmanfm as the default filemanager and a functional trash can accessable from pcmanfm, rox-filer, and desktop. A genuine don't ask don't tell permanent remove, and wrappers so rox-filer is used as the file manager when running the configuration utilities that depend on it ie. Puppy Theme Manager, PupControl, Desktop Settings. May not have gotten them all but for now seems ok. I'm going to upload my mods as a tgz, not a pet as they are meant as a mad-tinkers guide for the fellow-mad
Oh yea, it's also running my samba server on a Bay Trail Desktop and it's rock solid there.
@belham2, Tis true that without gvfs, pcmanfm will not show the drives. I just bookmark my main drives and any removables show up on the desktop and mounting opens pcmanfm. Works for me. Screenie attached also..
Edit: Omitted a thanks to festus. I used the PcManFM from here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 683#970683

Pups currently in kennel :D Older LxPupSc and X-slacko-4.4 for my users; LxPupSc, LxPupSc64 and upupEF for me. All good pups indeed, and all running savefiles for look'n'feel only. Browsers, etc. solely from SFS.
Re: Lost icons and trouble to mount units
I actually prefer it without icons (which are too small and often cryptic or misleading) and is the case in slacko and Lxpup for quite some time now, so I wouldn't bother...peebee wrote:You're right - package type icons are missing in PPM in ArtfulPup compared to XenialPup.....01101001b wrote: - Why does Puppy Package Manager show no icons now in results hits when searching?

However, I believe that the issue is because of the missing icons in /usr/share/icons/hicolor.
I think this is related to pTheme so maybe Ziggy could take a look.

Re: Lost icons and trouble to mount units
I thought they were removed in modern puppies because mini-icons directory was deleted so they would show up as broken now. It is interesting that 666philb brought the feature back in xenialpup somehow (using seemingly a few generic ones?).mavrothal wrote:I actually prefer it without icons (which are too small and often cryptic or misleading) and is the case in slacko and Lxpup for quite some time now, so I wouldn't bother...peebee wrote:You're right - package type icons are missing in PPM in ArtfulPup compared to XenialPup.....01101001b wrote: - Why does Puppy Package Manager show no icons now in results hits when searching?

Hey you guys !
Can not boot ArtfulPup from a Usb-Stick when copy the extracted Content from the Iso into a Subfolder .
In my case created a Folder named artfulpup on an Usb-stick .
menu.lst looks :
title Puppy artfulpup (sdb1)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /artfulpup/vmlinuz pupsubdir=artfulpup pmedia=usbflash pfix=fsck,nocopy
initrd /artfulpup/initrd.gz
When copying the extracted Content from the Iso to / root ......it does boot .
Same Problem with newest Xenialpup .
What am i doing wrong?
Any Idea?
