Please wait until Bionic Beaver is released by Ubuntu on 26th April followed by Upup-BB sometime later.....currently Alpha!!petihar wrote:Hello peebee,
I just tried your bionic puppy on my acer Aspire V5, with the french langpack, at first glance everything works perfectly. It's great work, thank you very much. If you accept, it will serve me probably basis for my next Triton. .

Running +2 as my daily with no major issues. I still don't have direct rendering on the i915 hardware. The crda error messages in dmesg have stayed gone since I added the wireless-regdb and set the wireless reg domain. Could someone with non intel video and possible a non ath9k wireless card run the following in terminal and see what the results are: "glxgears" and "dmesg | grep crda" ? Thanks. Also hoping Ubuntu sorts the GLib-GObject-CRITICAL issues by release.
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.

Drive icons poor display - a fix
G'day,
I have been able to find a fix for the inability of Upup Bionic to re-display my drive icons so both a and b drives are aligned across the screen bottom, not overlapping, and without their labels (check an earlier post of mine in this thread for the issue).
The problem seems to be an incomplete(?) version of eventmanager in /usr/sbin.
Copying the bigger version of eventmanager in XenialPup-7.5 to BionicPup alpha, after deleting the smaller problem file in /usr/sbin, I can now re-position my 28-odd drive icons from the default overflowing/overlapping columns and other unsatisfactory arrangements offered by the Bionic-supplied eventmanager to well-spaced and label-free rows.
Another ongoing irritation I've had with recent Pups (not just BionicPup which is only alpha after all) is clutter with irrelevant 'places' for opening files in the 'Open file' window.
To fix this, I deleted all the lines in /etc/fstab. This then does de-clutter the 'Open file' dialog window, however I don't know if this has any effect elsewhere.
So far, so good in quite a few now un-cluttered Pups.
Hoping this ad-hoc-ery may help someone else,
David S.

updated to +3T on the intel i5 laptop. Running well (haven't tested frisbee as SNS has been rock solid for me for a while & I don't roam ). The wireless-regdb addition working, no crda errors in dmesg. Thanks. Still no direct rendering on the i915 hardware. The only Warnings in dmesg at this point are acpi resource conflicts and they have been present in multiple kernels/pups on this hardware for a while now with no seeming effect on any operation.
Code: Select all

Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual

Really good that modular A drive idea that has the browser in it.
Would be good to see a few alternative A drive slot ins from OscarTalks and others who do browsers. That would make things easier because they are always changing them.
I found that turning off some of the services in the boot manager made a difference in performance and app errors, namely the systemd and machine id.
I also tried Radkey Stretch kernel 4.1.48, pretty good and also cpiez phil66 kernel 3.17.7, even better.
Just wondering if it is ok to swap a lower version kernel in or will there be trouble?
I wanted to try a 2.6.33.7 just to see.
This is relating to Artful, since the Bionic cake won't be baked until after Easter!

Hi Art
Those are the same errors that are appearing in all apps.....they don't look nice but don't seem to affect to affect functionality.
Were the ppm databases updated correctly?
As they are produced by Xdialog they may be fixable in a similar way to frisbee....but we really want the errors to "go away".....
I've been trying to find which ubuntu package supplies GTlsBackend but have so far drawn a blank....

There are a selection of alternative browsers at:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/lxpup/ ... /browsers/
which may work (untested).
The only thing to watch with kernels is how much firmware is included in the zdrv - but if you keep the fdrv together with a different zdrv then you should be covered even if it is somewhat belt and braces.
Of course older kernels may not have drivers at all for newer hardware....but if you're using older hardware then this shouldn't be a problem.

Further to above re: alternate browsers - on a quick test all the browsers seem to work i.e. they start.

@peebee:
No problems with anything I've installed via ppm using BB, and there have
been several items. It's particularly nice to have qpdfview available via ppm.
Probably it's too large for you to replace evince, but it's far superior.
No problems with BB on a 2nd computer either. Since all six of my computers
are in a "goldilocks zone" (not new but not terribly old) I don't anticipate any
problems with BB on any of them.
This "alpha" stuff is a myth

BBPup +3 updated to +5 on my i5 referenced above. No glitches noted, glxgears failure to run as noted above is unchanged. Subjective speed excellent though.
re browsers: Your Slimjet run-as-spot runs flawlessly here and is very clean/devoid of advertising once set up. It's the last 32b slimmie alas.
re md5sums: I like having the iso md5sum in the post as as in this thread as opposed to in a separate text file per your LxPupSC updates. An easy cut and paste to check and saves a couple of steps.
re kernels: On the i5 hardware I have no problems at all running newer (gone as far as your 4.15.9 64b) in BBPup or somewhat older (the original ArtfulPup 4.4.59 32b ). I haven't gone any older than that. Core 2 duo hardware balks at the 4.15.9 64b (video glitches).
Happily using ubbpup as my daily.
Thanks,

Bionic will be very different of Artful..
I consider artfulpup as the final show of Xenial, yustus, zesty, artful being last improvements.
Bionic is a new area, with major changes. Please let alive topic about artful.
And in April, try to success on a topic about Bionic.
Perhaps other teams will create it, as for xenialpup.
