The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

Although PupControl is approaching middle age (in dog years) it supports both old and new Pups, including Xenialpup.bigpup wrote:Thanks for this program and keeping it updated!!!

radky,
I am of the impression that you are maintaining PupControl for older pups such as Lucid pup. Is that correct? If so, I am reporting what I see in xerrs.log when I install it in lupu and sulu2:I don't see in the code where the /usr/local/share/applications directory is referenced. Only the "/pinstall.sh: line 32: [-d: command not found" line might cause a problem. But the others flood the log.
Do I need to fix line 32 of the pinstall script? Or does it fail in a way that has no impact? The "flooding" will not affect Lucid Pup users because they will not need to install PupControl themselves.

problem? with xerrs.log?
Booted four Puppy Linuxes with pfix=ram
Here are the initial sizes of /tmp/xerrs.log, and after installing pupcontrol 3.0
Slim Slacko 6: 2787 bytes, 3419
SuLu2-2016: 2716, 26K
Slacko 6.9.6.4 2098 (it's in /initrd/mnt/tmpfs/tmp/ and grows each time I ls it)

@sheldonisaac,
Most applications, including PupControl, will add content to xerrs.log over time, so the log will grow larger even when all is well in Puppy. The added content often represents simple messages about the status of a given application, with no true error state.
In the case of PupControl, rerwin noted additional content in xerrs.log when running the pinstall script. The excess messaging was secondary to the initial search for .desktop files in the /usrs/local/share/applications directory. This is now fixed (quiet) in PupControl-3.1.
Thanks

xenialdog
hi radky
thank you for hard work.
your pupcontrol works great in
xenialdog 32 bit.
but. it is impossible to do:
basic settings, country setup,
hardware clock, time-date, time format,
time update...
can you make improvements also
for xenialdog?
thanks.

Hi zagreb999,
PupControl supports a broad range of utilities common to Puppy Linux, but very few of those applications are available in XenialDog. Unfortunately, adding support for the many unique utilities of XenialDog would require significant recoding of PupControl.
On the other hand, Fredx181 does great work in XenialDog and codes many of his own utilities. Possibly he has plans for his own control panel.
Thanks for your comments.

Radky, I think this is an awesome app, and I think it should be included in Woof-CE.
WHY IT'S AWESOME
Puppy comes with so many useful little apps, sometimes it's hard to find things. There's four categories where you might find a given program - System, Utility, Setup, and Desktop.
Using PupControl, and deleting all of the .desktop files in /usr/applications PupControl replaces, I was able to get rid of two categories entirely - Desktop and System - leaving only two menu items (sparsely populated). It's so clean, simple, and nice.
