Puduan-6.0.0-wmx-alpha1a
Since I already have qt-482 installed I downloaded and compiled
Smplayer-16.8.0 and Smtube-16.7.2, works well with your Mplayer.
Also saw the tips on rearranging the desktop and moved the panel that
was hiding the drive icons.
Puduan-6.0.0 is working great on my old p4.
Thanks again.

Hi, Billtoo.
Thanks for the compliment!
Great desktop you have there in your pic! (I'm jealous!)
About SMPlayer and SMTube: did you compile them on this Puduan? If so, is there a
possibility you can make them available (including the Qt) for the rest of us?
Thanks in advance. And have a great Sunday!

Congratulations Christian!
Working to satisfaction here in qemu. The qemu video driver is fbdev so unaccelerated it has a few quirks but of course qemu/fbdev have their limitations. So the attached screen shot may not be what is expected. BTW, as reported, I had to set a wallpaper manually.
I downloaded iceweasel from ppm and that works fine too.
Sound worked ootb. Basic puppy staples all working in limited testing.
Cheers!

Congrats Musher0!
It must be mindbreaking fun to build a complete puppy.
Can you give a little more explanation on the what, why, how of your build?
Or did you already explain it somewhere on the forum?
I am tempted to try it; the wmx intrigues me. But I run on an old Palomino with geforce256 and I guess you use a new kernel and xorg?
I can run Tahr - not palemoon though, I got no SSE2 - and if I need something I always look in the repos of jessie. So why would you build this if there is already Tahr?

Hello, foxpup.
The discussion that led to this thread was:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... ost#917394
As to why I built a Puduan Puppy while a TahrPup existed: keep this to yourself:
I wanted to create trouble!!!
Joking aside: Puppy has had the capacity to build a Jessie for a long time. People
were starting to make fun of us and discredit us on DistroWatch because we didn't.
(Nah. That may be just another [bad] joke!)
How about: a distro that can feed on many repos didn't. Now Puppy has one more
restaurant to choose from!
As to the technical aspects of your question, they will be better answered by a
real techie.
Edit: The kernel I chose for this Puduan is version 3.14.0. There are other kernel
options in the Woof-CE when you get to that item. For the record, as I am writing
these words, the last stable Linux kernel listed on kernel.org is version 4.7.2.
But I do encourage you to download the latest woof-CE and dive right in!
BFN.

@01micko.
Yeah, it's wiggling!
It'll need to go through the usual paces (beta, rc) before final publication.
Thanks for taking it for a test drive! (And thanks for the initial push!)

I just tested them on a new puduan install and they work fine, however I installed smtube last and it caused the computer to freeze, after rebooting everything was fine.musher0 wrote:Splendid!

Maybe install the smtube pet first?

congrats on woofce build, musher!
Both are much appreciated. If that sounds recursive, then it is! (Ha! Devs!)
@Billtoo: Thanks again!

Hi musher0.
So basically you just built it because it can be done.
Diving into woofCE would probably kill my dear old machine.
First I have to look for a more powerful PC.
For the moment I just dive into puppy.sfs (and pupsave.fs) to take out or put in as i like.
I will take a dive into your Puduan Puppy though. The kernel is allright. I just cannot use the nvidia driver.
I already had done some reading there. I liked it when you decide to try to get to X because otherwise no one is interested.musher0 wrote: The discussion that led to this thread was:

Who put this choice there without using it? And why? You ask something along these lines when you ask about "wanderer", right?It's one of the build choices offered in the woof-CE.

Yes foxpup, having another repository to choose from (devuan jessie) is part of the charm and adds to puppy variety.
Nah, I turn off speedstep on my 2005 laptop and let woof-ce build at 800MHz. This way it is quiet and the CPU uses only 10.8W.foxpup wrote:Diving into woofCE would probably kill my dear old machine.

Not wanderer, no. Iguleder started the Devuan woof and then had tofoxpup wrote:Hi musher0.

leave for important reasons (such as earning a living IIRC).
3-4 years ago, wanderer provided the interim producing various Puppies, between
Barry's retirement and the constitution of the woof-CE. Wanderer played a vital role
during that period. We are not grateful enough towards wanderer. He helped maintain
Puppy's momentum at the time.

Hello all.
Why I am on this thread this afternoon:
Ref.: davids45's post, bottom of page 2, item [4].
I have been working on the compatibility between the Puduan's special desktop and
Zigbert's pwidgets. A big part of the problem is Zigbert's use of conky 1.6 and my
use of conky 1.9.
I am still working on it, but basically, at this point, I can get my scripts out of the
way of the pwidgets, but not the reverse (if the user wanted to re-instate the
original Puduan desktop, for example). Zigbert's low version of conky squishes
my higher version. And my conky configuration needs the conky 1.9, in particular
to indicate the desktop number (2nd line, last item to the right).
Any ideas? BFN.

Hello, "Puduanites"!
I gave it another try, this time trying to get conky to load its config file as
conky-1.6 or as conky-1.9.1. That would have made it very simple
-- for the Puduan desktop use conky-1.9.1
-- for pwidgets use conky-1.6.
But no, conky has to be identified as conky. Period.
So folks, unless one of you brilliant people has a stroke of genius, the user will
have to make a very final decision on 1st boot:
-- EITHER (s)he wants the Puduan desktop
-- OR (s)he wants the pwidgets
-- forever and ever, amen.
If you install pwidgets, you can't go back to the Puduan desktop. It's a point of
no-return kind of thing. Not in the same pupsave, anyway.
In practice, this means:
before installing the pwidgets, move Startup scripts (I mean in /root/Startup)
conky-2l.sh and rclock.sh to /root/Startup-NON. Then install your pwidgets. Then
reboot or, less drastically, restart X;
or do not install pwidgets.
The only thing left for me to write, then, is a one-way script for the empty PuppyPin
option, to move the weather and aemenu icons out of the pwidgets' way. (3/4
done, actually.)
If you want the Puduan desktop back after you've chosen the pwidgets, you'll
have to start the Puduan afresh with another pupsave.
