Puppy Arcade v5 - new files (29 Dec 2009)

[sc0ttman]

gr8 work on this puppet!I have been searching for "a thing" like this a long time ago!the "look" of the pupplet is very very good
It is a pitty I can get xorg to work..but I'll try to edit it by hand

Thanks very much, hope it works for you.. Unfortunately I can't help you out as I've no idea which card you've got and am no real expert, but dare I say that if you read up on MUs posts or ask him something, you'll be fine - he's the man for gpu/video/xorg related stuff.

hey man i runnin this off an eee pc ...mini laptop things.. and it runs great everything works except for wifi..

I've no idea if this is the same problem (is the eeepc a netbook?) but here is a quote from ealier in the thread..

anything based on 4.2 hates my netbook. No sound, no wifi. Seems to be a problem with the older kernel.

So, and anyone correct me if I am wrong, WiFi may not work on your EeePC, if you're using ANY version of Puppy 4.2.. But you can add the Puppy Arcade sfs to a 4.3 install...

And thank you [MOB]Trip very much for adding a mirror, after much hard work it seems, it's been added it to the main thread...

Also, here is a great list of file hosts, for people who need them, for any reason:

ur welcome for the mirror mang

i havent even attepmted the wifi yet, and i dont use shit mu says..."heres something i havent tested it yet but here u try"....rather piss in my pc lol

and im finally tryin the psx...got the bios file..didnt work so i followed the second step and /root/.psx/EMPTYYYYY so i cant edit this file u talkin bout....i will see if pfind gets it (runnin off a 55gig usb drive)

nope pfind aint find it...grr

damn thought google was gonna come through for me but all the links for the file are dead so far....

[[MOB]Trip]

well ..uhh didnt bother to copy the link but i just googled mad wifi pet and i got the wifi workin on hurr now so chea....now just need get the psx workin.

had to get opera cuz firepup refuzes fullscreen when streamin vids

hmm no fullscreen n opera either might be the resolution i am usen though

[puppyiso]

Thank you, [MOB]Trip

I am finally downloading it now.

Due to its size, will take some time.

Since you've doe the iso file, how would you like uploading the sfs file for 4.2 version? It takes less time to download than the iso.

I use Gnome Puppy and starting with a new iso will be a major job so just adding the 4,2 version sfs will be much more convenient.

And sc0ttman, Once again, if you have a problem with servers, I can at least host the sfs fil if you like.

Thank you.

[[MOB]Trip]

u welcome, n ye sure i will attempt to upload the sfs files soon, got a 1mb connection blehh and downloadin a movie and a my folk is downloadin bout 2 gig of stuff for an attempt at xp on a usb drive so,....hmmm i had the sfs files but i killed that hd...lemme see how slow it will go


and ahhhhhh i want damn tapping turned off on touch pad but there is no "maxtap" in the xorg.conf grrr


Upload progress: 1.02 Mb / 30.55 Mb | Time remaining: 1:21 hours
and im a upload the .pet as well

k the 4.2 sfs is done

Thank you, MOB]Trip

Thank you all, people.

-------------------------------

P.S. well done!! This is the emulator I wanted to have in Linux for a long time. THere are many game related distros out there but they are bulky and essentially the same emulator despite its size.

Just adding an sfs with no major change and being all ready to find ROMs is really nice.

had to get opera cuz firepup refuses fullscreen when streamin vids

Use IceWM for fullscreen Flash - then you will have no problems - JWM has a problem with fullscreen Flash, it's most likely not your browser..

..tryin the psx... got the bios file.. didnt work so i followed the second step and '/root/.psx/' is EMPTY, so i cant edit this file u talkin bout...

You'll need to enable OpenGL, then run pSX, so that pSX actually creates the files you're looking for, and then you need to open the ini file in '/root/.psx/'... So...

PSX HELP (updated): Run '/usr/local/pSX/psx' in the terminal and check which error message you get - if it says something like 'OpenGL not enabled on this system' then you must get your GPU drivers installed and restart. If psx gives a segmentation fault (with no mention of OpenGL problems), go to '/root/.psx/' and edit psx.ini to point to the correct BIOS file.. Then it should work.

And thanks again MOB[Trip] for the extra mirrors... I'll try to get a few more files online at uploading.com as it seems to work alright...

[sc0ttman]

And sc0ttman, Once again, if you have a problem with servers, I can at least host the sfs file if you like.

I've added MOB[Trip]s mirrors to the main post, and will add some other mirrors for the remaining files very soon..

np john

o n filefactor.com pays u 10$ for every 1,000 downloads if u have an account, in which that is free to make. but maybe everyyyy puppy file could be on there and then donate the $$ to barry or someen?

n ye scott no opengl when i run the /usr blah blah, so i guess i need get opengl but when i do that then the psxini file thus will be created? and....i gotta get specific opengl drivers? or just opengl libs..

n ite so ice for fullscreen ight..but its kinda ugly but i can just get a diff theme right?

and AHHHHH i haTE this DAMN TAPPING ON THE FAKN TOUCHPAD IM A CUT IT OUT I SWURRRR

edit::
im runnin the icevm&tray and i can get fullscreen in opera but not firefox...ass long as one works idc i did not try the icevmlite though...but opera has fs so its all good.

edit
k i got open gl....i got the psx to open..i clicked ok for english and it crashed x...ran xorg n xwin...then it wouldnt display x...power button...x is back...ofc no hints in xerrslog now...so....hmmm...i will investigate..might enjoy me a fullscreen bootleg though lol

[sc0ttman]

filefactor.com pays u 10$ for every 1,000 downloads if u have an account... maybe every puppy could be on there and then donate the $$ to barry or somone?

That's a good idea! Shame I didn't do it earlier, for myself! Although in the Puppy Arcade downloads I'm tracking, the most popular version still has only around 300 downloads so far.. Not gonna replace my day job lol

i guess i need get opengl [for psx] but when i do that then the psxini file thus will be created? and....i gotta get specific opengl drivers? or just opengl libs..

Puppy Arcade only needs the graphics card drivers - You need to enable OpenGL by installing the drivers developed for your specific gfx card - ideally it's already been packaged in a convenient pet file... Once you have OpenGL, you'll need to run pSX once, so it creates the ini file in root, then edit the file (or you can rename your BIOS file to match its value).

With hindsight, I could've simplified this process for everyone on the ISO, but it's a small issue I think..

About the ugly IceWM, I didn't add a theme, as there are so many available which can be easily installed via a .pet file, and everyone has their own favourite... I like IceKDE or LXP...

And fullscreen video works fine for me in IceWM on youTube and various others including iPlayer and other on demand sites, so I can't say why it's not working for you - unless it's also OpenGL related, I guess...

[[MOB]Trip]

so i need just edit this

[BIOS]
PS1=bios/scph1001.bin
PS2=bios/scph39001.bin

to where my bios files are

and ye im a be changen this ice theme lol and i havent tried fullscreen in firefox yet since i installed the xorg full.pet thingamajigga but im a find me a new theme then i will try n edit that line.

[sc0ttman]

so i need just edit this

Code: Select all

[BIOS]
PS1=bios/scph1001.bin
PS2=bios/scph39001.bin

to where my bios files are

Once you are sure you have OpenGL working, then yes, that's all that's required to play PSX.

[[MOB]Trip]

hmm x doesnt get raped now, i changed that line to PS1=/usr/local/pSX/bios/scph1001.bin and it doesnt rape x now...but no work yet..gettin this now /usr/bin/psx: line 3: 23777 Segmentation fault "/usr/local/pSX/psx" "$@"

got some sexy new themes though

any idea how get rid this damn tappping on the touchpad thoug if there is no line in xorg.conf...cuz im gettin pissed at it.



fukn with themes somehow raped my fullscreen capability.

in reply to Scottman's invite to try uae (amiga emulator) and see if it works, unfortunately, I must say it does not works

tried several roms (same roms are perfectly read bu E-UAE) but only thing that seems working is program emulation window requesting kickstart, but I have already

created a uae directory in /usr/lib/uae/
putted a kickstart (tried 1.3 and 3.2 both)
renamed to kick.rom

Since I want help, I want to do other tries to try to find reason why uae seems not working for me. stay tuned, meanwhile I have installed E-UAE

[[MOB]Trip]

i have never played an amiga game in my life so i cant help ya ding.

n fullscreen works again.

[sc0ttman]

in reply to Scottman's invite to try uae (amiga emulator) and see if it works, unfortunately, I must say it does not work

Bizarre, I've played Sensible Soccer, Another World, Akira, Colonization and a few others without problems.. Tried a few roms which didn't work, but most of them had no problems.. And I now like the Amiga, I must say... Best version of Another World that I've played!

However, if people don't know, the SFS and .PET versions of Puppy Arcade already include the later E-UAE.

to sc0ttman,

Big thanks for Arcade :p

Tried your arcade V2 sfs for puppy 4.3.1, and it works just great! no deps to hunt for, it just works. great stuff!

Glad to hear it, I was waiting for some feedback, so thanks very much! Have fun!!

[Makoto]

I have to get around to trying the SFS, myself... I've been cheating, somewhat, lately, and mounting SFS files like they were separate drives.

[sc0ttman]

Just adding an sfs with no major change and being all ready to find ROMs is really nice.

Glad you like it, and nice screenshot, your puplet looks great!!! And good to see Puppy Arcade working in another system!
