Hello Everyone,

I am working with 01micko on the ext4 problem.

@Sage: As far as I know there is no way to put things in the task bar.

@slavvo67: I could have the firewall open up right after people setup their networking which may help them know that there is firewall protection .

@davids45: I really like what u did to pwidgets looks nice.

pwidgets improvements

G'day oldyeller,

I cannot take credit for the really good looking widgets.

I've crudely adapted them from forum member Moat's ChloePup which has a variety of modified widgets - Moat had also improved the original yahoo-based weather pwidget to include forecasts and extra details - for then to have yahoo make their weather unusable :shock: . He then coded to call in the better accuweather site's data to get the now quite large but very impressive weather forecast widget.

Here's a link to his ChloePup if you're wanting to try some of his work:

I like this puplet. One issue - the installed wl.ko is for older broadcom chips & when I tried to compile a newer driver, kernel sources missing (devx alone insufficient). Barry's link to the sources now '404' error. Anyone still have kernel sources for 3.9.11 pae?

Is this a 64bit version?

Puppies upup have a bug about keyboards. If you do a puplet from upup, consider you have to improve your version to get foreign keymaps working.. For your Fluxpup passengers, please do it.

My laptop has a 'tilt bar' type touchpad, making right-clicks (a requirement to get the Fluxbox Menu) difficult.
Solution: Config button on the toolbar allows you to add apps, including the Menu. Command is:
fluxbox-remote RootMenu

Thumbnails well appeared on fluxpup running in Virtualbox. Strange why there is a bug when installed.

I think this is my new favorite Pup. Everything works on my Core2 HP NC6400. It's installed on the harddrive as full-install, and also on a USB thumbdrive. Saving changes works fine on the USB. Only thing I noticed was that it won't mount my other ext4 partitions, but it looks like that's already being looked into.

Also, happy to see that FluxPup doesn't keep one of the cpu cores running at 33%. Three other Pups with newer kernels work fine except that the Linux "kworker" bug shows up on my particular machine, keeping a core at a steady 33% with no other processes running.

Hello Everyone,

I have just up loaded a new iso. So the ext4 should now be fixed thanks to 01micko.

So test and let me know

Thanks,

FluxPup-1.6.1 recognized ext4.

Thank you ever so much oldyeller and 01micko.

Your welcome 117woofer.

If anyone wants to put the root menu on the taskbar this is how to do it.

find this line in the init, it is in ~/.fluxbox folder- session.screen0.toolbar.tools: RootMenu, prevworkspace, workspacename, nextworkspace, iconbar, systemtray, clock. You can just copy and paste this into it as well.

Cheers

sure it's a pleasure to try latest puppies, as Pupjibaro jessie by our colleagues, but when you need to do some work, without wasting time; i include a well-known Puppy precise in my multiboot pendrives. Fluxpup is one of them.
