You know, we have had a report that synaptics only worked when automatically configured not when configured with CCE. As far as I am concerned it is all one system and we have two methods of configuring--if one does not work correctly then there is a chance the other will. It sounds like you are able to configure your hardware and use Lucid Puppy. Good deal. |
Agreed. And it works the best yet. I actually deleted my 'fall back' Mint today. Never use it now

The Synaptics touchpad works from the first desktop, but the flsynclient fails.
I made a wrapper script which can be a solution.
Try this.

OK... fresh frugal install, no save file. Booted to desktop. Installed wrapper script. Attempted flsynclient.... Synaptics found, must restart X to use it. Attempted restart X, fail. Ran Xorg wizard... fail.
Hmmm....
Reboot, use classic configuration procedure, all fine. |
Sorry, it was not tested on Lupu. Try the revised if you still have an interest.
EDIT: 1 Oct 2010
synclient-wrapper-20100901.pet had a typo and loose settings after restart X.
/root/Startup/load-touchpad-settings.sh at line 2
Code: | [ -s "$HOME/.flsynclient" ] || exit |
Correct:
Code: | [ -s "$HOME/.flSynclient" ] || exit |
Fixed in synclient-wrapper-20101001.pet.

Time to go to sleep. Streaming wirelessly using pulseaudio and stream2ip is possible. Not even sure how I got python working. What I am sure is...I dont really know how I did it anymore. But here it is.
Streaming wirelessly to Apple Airport Express using pulseaudio and stream2ip. Stream2ip informs that it does not find device but I can hear right now that it find it musically.

There is a kind of interesting design approach in Lupu that is somewhat unique. It is illustrated in the first run configuration that we were just talking about. There really are two distinct methods involved. The "auto config" is courtesy of the current Xorg (which has had auto config since 7.3). The other method is the one Barry designed and refined. Both are good methods, and because we have them both available we have the chance to solve problems that neither would solve alone. That gives a robustness, when there is a secondary method available.
We have a similar situation with the mediaplayer: if gnome-mplayer is doing something wrong, then try Smplayer, and then VLC. For audio, gnome-mplayer is backed up by Pmusic, with Audacious in the PPM. And a final instance is with printing pdf's. If you choose Print in Abiword you will see "Cups-Pdf" and "pdf_writer." Each works in some circumstances and by including them both we are able to cover more circumstances that either alone. "pdf_writer" works best with Abiword and "Cups-Pdf" works best with epdfview.
Would it be better to have one perfect application for every task? Yes. I guess. The reason we can afford to do it this way is that Puppy uses lean applications--so we can back up one lean application with another, and still not gain too much weight. The goal with Lucid puppy is something like it bends but it doesn't break. Even if it takes a little fiddling people will be able to do what it is they want to do and use Lucid Puppy in a variety of ways. For instance, one of my particular needs--playing multiple sound cards--I have had to go all the way to Audacious, but it does just what I need and I am using Lucid puppy in the way I want to use it..
(Just a little rambling theory for fun)

Lucid Puppy 5.1.1 Beta Testing and Development Subject description: revo flash drive install |
|
Booted 222 live cd with pfix=ram on Eeepc 701
Used gparted to create a primary ext3 partition on 8gb flash drive and set boot flag.
Used universal installer to install 222 to the flash drive and exited 222.
Moved flash drive to Acer Revo Nettop booted from the flash drive.
222 booted directly to the desktop at correct resolution and detected wireless keyboard and mouse, the wired network was also connected.
The Lupu Recommends box was empty ( nvidia ion not there)
Downloaded latest nvidia driver with quickpet and did the install thing (black bar at top of screen).

I'm not sure serendipity qualifies as a "design approach".

There is something about Flsynclient on Barry's blog.
Not sure if it helps this problem.

TOTAL SUCCESS!
Automatic configuration works with this wrapper installed! Flsynclient bug DEAD!

Still can't find the driver database for cups 1.4.3
the printers and drivers are listed at /usr/share/gutenprint/5.2/xml/printers.xml
One database seem to be at /usr/share/cups/ppdc/
and another at /usr/lib/gutenprint/5.2/modules/
I have an epson printer and I`m very confident
but there seems to be only one file for brother at /usr/share/ppd/
I`m wondering if some people are having problems setting up the printer for not having drivers already.
Had printed pdf without problems -- the pdf patch would take time to download and play around with.
The only nasty experience was that midori started doubling up http://localhost:631/ to http://localhost//localhost:631/
I had such too with firefox at one 4.3 adding www. like http://www.localhost:631/ while at internet (this was repaired by replacing /etc/cups) but until now there weren`t any X server crashes or hard shutdown so I do not see the need for examining /etc/cups at the moment
`cups_shell` seems to be right; couldn`t find any doubles there

JRB is back after a (too long for us) break.
What's more - he is going to do a little development! The Lucid developer team just gets better and better.
With QuickPet and an integrated SFS linker we can hopefully silence those reviewers who say the expansion possibilities of Puppy are limited.
I feel good today!
