is remove-builtins just one step to alter the distro and then one has to remaster *before* one is able to resume using Lucid 5.1 (or Quirky)?


No. Remastering is just a way of removing the 'white space' left by removing original built in programs, plus combing the changes you have made. The advantage of remastering is that once done, you can start with a fresh 'save' file (compulsory), and then if you bork it, just delete your save file and you are back to your clean re-master again. Its a great way to perform radical changes, because you can always go back.

Thanks!

I had printed the instructions the other day and forgot to print the link to the PET or to download the PET.

Sigh ... need more sleep ... or more coffee! Smile

Wireless printing using Apple Airport Express works with Hp1020.

I used rcrsn51 great advice. Still valid Smile http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=263662#263662

Minolta magicolor 2200/2300/2430 DL,HP LaserJet 1018/1020/1022/P35,
HP LaserJet Pro P1102/P1102w/P1566/P1606dn > all these printers needs foo2xxx printer driver package because of firmware hotplugin.

foo2xxx_r220909-0.0 (zjs/xqx/slx/oak/hp/xxx) package (11MB): http://www.datafilehost.com/download-bf13c069.html

I havent tested latest hpijs package if it handles hotplugin though, I dont wanna play with CUPS. If it aint broken dont even think about fixing it Smile
But above foo2xxx works fine with Lupu.

PostPosted: Sun 22 Aug 2010, 06:35    Post_subject: minor annoyance with set timezone.
Sub_title: theis also happened in previous version (at least 5.01 and 4.32)		  
When I set my timezone to GMT+1 and hover on the clock applet in the tray the tip says GMT-1. If I choose GMT-1 the tip says GMT+1.Not sure whether this is only a cosmetic issue or if it can actually cause wrong time display, for example if the hw clock is set to UTC.

Workaround: instead of GMT+1 I choose Europe/Rome, which seems to be ok.

Patriot's foo2xxx package is still the best choice for these printers.

If I'm remembering correctly, POSIX compliant systems (like Linux) represent time offsets in reverse (-5GMT is +5POSIX). Barry labeled them the way we expect to see them (offset from GMT), but the clock likely shows the POSIX offset. Nothing was actually wrong, just highly confusing. It's probably best to choose the timezone name, as you have done, to avoid that confusion.

Startmount isn't working for me in 510. Tried uninstalling and reinstall. It shows drives being probed, but no gui opens up after that.

Yes, that's the case. I tried with other offsets and the sign of the offset is always reversed on the clock tip, so it's definitely consistent. Sorry for the wrong report and thx for the explanation

I am using that package somewhat successfully with a HP Laserjet P1006.

I say somewhat because it handles text files but it won't print PDF files, it causes a blank page to come out and then generates an error in the Print Jobs area.

Hmmmm... I can't reproduce that, works fine for me.

How many drives do you have and what filesystems?

Best way to let me know is by running probepart in a terminal.

Cheers

mdisaster2,

If you set your timezone as you have done it will follow the Summer Time settings and should alter your clock whenever there's a change.

If you set UTC it will not follow this.

I've always found it more convenient to be on correct 'local' time. Very Happy

In fact when I wrote Psync I insisted on it for the servers to sync correctly and set your time correctly, else they will set your clock to the region you select.

01micko,

Here's results of probepart.

/dev/sda1|ext3|10233342
/dev/sda3|ext2|61432560
/dev/sda4|none|2
/dev/sda5|ext2|10233342
/dev/sda6|ext3|60018776
/dev/sda7|ext2|10281536

I probably have created the last one since installing my last OS, lupu-500.

Thanks, Jeff

Thanks weffy,

Did you always have that tiny partition with 'none'? I gather not formatted?

That could potentially bork Startmount, I'll look further into the issue when you respond.

Cheers

Perhaps partition extended ?

Maybe look at what does fdisk -l ( start and end of blocks and cylinders...) ?

I have the same :

# probepart
/dev/sda1|ext3|26282276
/dev/sda2|swap|2972024
/dev/sda3|none|2
/dev/sda5|ext3|42813162
.............

# fdisk -l

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 1636 13141138+ 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 1637 1821 1486012+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda3 1822 24792 184514527 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 1822 4486 21406581 83 Linux



my tiny...

Cheers
