Just FYI, this Stretch 7.5 runs much nicer, smoother, faster on my PC than Xenial, and no bugs or weird issues like sound sometimes not working, like in Slacko...

Great job!


My PC specs are :

AMD Athlon(tm) X4 750K Quad Core Processor
16GB RAM
Radeon HD 7750 gfx card


.. running off USB, no save file..

BTW, thunor did a nice TTF font installer app, which could be added, as well as default run actions of .ttf files ... At the moment, clicking on them does nothing, and I can't find a noobs way of adding new TTF (or other!) fonts to the system...

yassm problem

#261 Post by WiZard »

Installed the latest frugal Stretch 7.5 and have a network connect problem
I have two networks as follows:
wired network on 192.168.254.x
wireless network on 192.168.1.x

My file server is on the wired network on static address: 192.168.254.7
My laptop is on the wireless network at 192.168.1.106

When using Precise 5.7.1 or Slacko 6.3.0 on the laptop, YASSM will connect to
the file server.

If I try to use YASSM in Stretch 7.5 it gives an error "Server 192.168.254.7
not found". Pnethood in Stretch will connect to the server so it looks like an issue with YASSM.

Thanks for the hard work on Stretch.

Which one to choose

#262 Post by hamoudoudou »

i agree on quality of 'all Puppy stretch released when Stretch was the goal of many devs..
Which one to choose
A Iso is kept available for download
B Devs will answer questions about it (help Desk)
C better if Help desk available in local language.
Sorry wizard, we are posting simultaneously...
"
Beta-3 changelog: 12/Dec/2017
- Move the iso repository to smokey01.com for download stability (thanks smokey01)

Is this a remaster? (there is no woof-CE info line in DISRO_SPECS)
If yes, of which original ISO? (so we can follow the change log - there are several 7.0.02a floating in the forum); At Ally's archives too

Dpup Stretch version 8 for try downloaded.
We just released VLC 3.0.1, the first bugfix release of the Vetinari branch! It improves chromecast support, hardware decoding, adaptive streaming, and fixes many bugs or crashes encountered in the 3.0.0 version

wifi

#269 Post by foxpup »

I have replaced 7.0.0a2 with the 7.5 RC-2 version on my i5 laptop.
I used SNS for wifi, but it did not reconnect on reboot.
There are new versions of NCU and SNS from rerwin that have to be included for Dpup Stretch before a release.

Dpup Stretch 7.5 RC-2
Would it be a good idea to upgrade the D-Bus package?

It appears the libdbus is the official Debian package (version 1.10.16)
But the executables including dbus-daemon are the much older 1.2.4.2pemissive from a .pet package.

Compiling VLC for example, the configure script complains about the old version and disables D-Bus in the build.

I am no expert in these matters, but one option seems to be to use the 2 packages "dbus" and "dbus-x11" from Debian in place of the .pet. In this case the dbus-daemon executable also needs libapparmor as a dependency.

The package libdbus-1-dev also needs to be added to the devx

In my personal Stretch remaster I have also been testing a build from source of D-Bus 1.12.6 with a couple of configure options including --disable-systemd and that seems to be working fine without the extra dependency lib.

My VLC 3.0.1 package contains the needed Qt5 libaries
These are official Debian Stretch versions and are in /usr/lib
Debian do sometimes update their packages.

If you have other programs installed which have different versions of the Qt5 libraries this may cause a conflict so you will need to check this and take steps to only have one suitable version of each library.

Dpup fails to boot from a subdirectory on my USB stick (device sdb1).
I have multiple pups on my stick, all in their dedicated directory.
Directory structure looks like this:
  • /mnt/sdb1/grldr
    /mnt/sdb1/menu.lst

    /mnt/sdb1/pup_slacko/initrd.gz
    /mnt/sdb1/pup_slacko/puppy_slacko_5.6.sfs
    /mnt/sdb1/pup_slacko/vmlinuz

    /mnt/sdb1/pup_tahr/vmlinuz
    /mnt/sdb1/pup_tahr/initrd.gz
    /mnt/sdb1/pup_tahr/puppy_tahr_6.0.5.sfs
    /mnt/sdb1/pup_tahr/zdrv_tahr_6.0.5.sfs

    /mnt/sdb1/pup_dpup/adrv_stretch_7.5.sfs
    /mnt/sdb1/pup_dpup/initrd.gz
    /mnt/sdb1/pup_dpup/vmlinuz
    /mnt/sdb1/pup_dpup/zdrv_stretch_7.5.sfs
    /mnt/sdb1/pup_dpup/puppy_stretch_7.5.sfs
Using grub4dos entries in menu.lst look like this. Except for Dpup other Puppies, even very old ones, would boot without problems:
  • title Puppy Slacko 5.6
    kernel /pup_slacko/vmlinuz pmedia=usbflash pfix=ram
    initrd /pup_slacko/initrd.gz

    title Puppy Tahr 6
    kernel /pup_tahr/vmlinuz pmedia=usbflash pfix=ram
    initrd /pup_tahr/initrd.gz

    title Puppy Dpup Stretch 7.5 CE (RC-2)
    kernel /pup_dpup/vmlinuz pmedia=usbflash pfix=ram
    initrd /pup_dpup/initrd.gz
Dpup tells me that it fails to locate the main sfs on sda1 (!).
Why can't Dpup find the file on the boot device like other puppies and how can I fix it?
