more dbus errors of same variety but different application

installed udiskie

when run get error (same as with batti)
bus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ExecFailed: Failed to execute program /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper:

I did som reaearch and
did

chmod +x /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper

and then get a step further with error

dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 127


Seems like there is a general problem with dbus?

scooby,

if you keep messing around with the udiskie/gvfs...it'll work. it's what i'm using. i used on the dbus-helper file "chmod +us" and restarting dbus-daemon and restarting x...and soon u'll see the combination and order that works. u also have to create the folder /run/media/root. that's where the drives get's mounted.

i like that volume monitor better because i like thunar better. Also because i use gvfs-smb...to browse the samba shares from my other computers. using thunar's intergrated "Network" icon.

another command i was using to check for errors is:
I'll try to find the exact order and let you know what it is, if i can find it before you do.

wrong post

sim,

after the release of the much anticipated and long awaited 132...will you be doing the frequent updates like you were before? you know, like maybe 4-8 days later releasing 132-2, with the reported bugs fixed and workarounds included??

From what I see, not so sure...
At least not here.
Hopefully is about something/someone else.

hmm, wonder what that's about. it vivdly appears to mean 1 thing. but like you said...hopefully not.

i was also reading into the 'slow releases' as having a secondary meaning as well. i view ArchPup as still being in alpha. how does it move to beta level, with the releases coming once every other month? Is this a decision done 'by design'?

If sim wasn't as smart as he is i'd tend to think, "Ahh, no big deal." But knowing that he is, leads me to think, "Ok, what's going on?"

I do not know but Archpup_13.2 is in Sourceforge!

hey...thanks for the heads up. maybe i'm just reading too deep into it.

Still cant get it to work

Stifling do you have thunar-volman install

Just stuck in some intermittent black screen flashing. Using a dvd burned with pburn. Um, I'm referring to archpup_13.2-20130201.iso.

EDIT: I'm moving to Precise 5.4.3 until this gets sorted out.

/etc/rc.d/MODULESCONFIG seems to have disappeared in 13.2

It is necessary to load the b43 driver BEFORE /etc/init.d/Pwireless2 is run - I no longer know how to do this....

I can get b43 wifi to work with Pwireless2 but it isn't persistent through a reboot due to the above problem - needs manual intervention to kick it into life.

Anybody know what the new bootmanager mechanism is?

The 'MODULES' line in /etc/rc.conf

Many thanks

Added b43 to modules line

and changed network interface to wlan0

wifi is now automatically reconnected after reboot.

Scooby,

See if you run the command:
if you get any errors.
thunar-volman is unnecessary for the volume monitor.


mavrothal,

I tried your filemnt script and want to include it in the adrv-xfce.sfs. only flaw i have with it as opposed to the one i posted earlier is that it doesn't mount the files if there in a directory with a space in it. same with any puppy:

path = /mnt/home/sdb1/operatingsystems/archpup.iso..........works
path = /mnt/home/sdb1/operating systems/archpup.iso.........doesn't work

same as with your original script! (check again and see if the SFS is actually mounted because I do not see it mounted at my end).

The reason that I prefer the puppy version is that it includes all the required checks for the state of the SFS to be loaded/unloaded.

BTW, simargl indeed quited the puppy forum.
However, AFAICS development continues
Comments suggestions etc at archpup souceforge support or discussion

i've been using the script for about 2 years now. i wrote it specifically because puppy's default filemnt script couldn't mount if there are spaces in the directory names.

i like the default for those same reasons. deal breaker for me though is '/path/to/space in dir name/*.sfs' won't mount.

Nice to see sim's still working on archpup though.

BTW, Archpup puppy People, should we start an Archpup-13.2 thread even if simargl does not want to participate?
:

That might be useful, aarf has one on the alt forum, plus they have made a webseeded torrent.

Sounds like an excellent idea to me. the new filemnt script also works perfect. it tends to go unnoticed but the filemnt script hasn't worked with spaces in puppy...as long as i've been using it. well done.
