IcePuppy-014 for newer and Ice Puppy-015 for older computers

[pemasu]

Just tested java again. http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... d-sfs4.sfs

I loaded that java.sfs with sfs on the fly and then I installed angry ip pet.
It run ok for me.
About java pets, I dont know much of them, I dont use java any other form than sfs.

But here is a link to the lates lucid puppy java pet I found: http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... 6.0.22.pet

Packages-puppy-lucid-official does not show all the stuff there is in lupu repo. Here is straight link, so that people can find the stuff straight.
I usually use straight repo access with browser.
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... ages-lucid
About those funny errors. 01mickos sfs get needs that you have made savefile and have /mnt/home existing.
Open Office probably needs same thing because it is so big download. Yes, I get the error of missing /mnt/home. I am running without savefile atm.

Sorry about responding so lamely. I am atm playing with Polarpup which will have full qt4 4.80 libs and development environment in devx.sfs. It will have also basic gstreamer support.
I have now second processing going because first one lacked libs for Handbrake. Some of those Qt apps unfortunately drags support libs with them. I have had to strip some previous stuff out so the build is not turbo IcePuppy.
Kernel is freshly compiled 2.6.38-4 intel atom optimization low latency highmem+pae kernel.
Qt4 applications so far QtWebbrowser, Arora web browser, Smplayer, latest Umplayer, Juffed, Qwriter, Qx11grab, Handbrake, Scribus, EasyImageSizer, Screengrab. Separately you can add VLC 1.10, Mscore, Lmms or those Qt apps which are around forum. Mostly they have needed Qt libs included so I have tested some of them by removing those Qt libs. That way Billtoos VLC shrink from 42 mb to 8 mb and still worked. I made new sfs of it.
And also most stuff from IcePuppy/SnowPuppy, with good and bad.
It will be my OS anyway so no sized down Puppy, there are so many of them around anyway.

Hold on. I am going back to earlier versions. I will report back soon on this JAVA occurrence!!!

For a java application to run, the system must know where your java binary is.
In a console issue PATH=<the path to your java binary>:$PATH

[pemasu]

I created from sfs jre 1.25 version pet. I will upload both of them when I have uploaded Polarpup. Later today.
That java pet worked also for me. Angry Ip started ok.

Another flawless upgrade from 013 to 014. Everything just works.

Hopefully, someone will prepare some pets for this for the nvidia drivers.

Thanaks,
Jim

Jim, pemasu has a nvidia pet for this kernel up on his site. I tried it but crashed my system... not badly someone who knows what they are doing could probable have recovered. I lost my keyboard and couldn't get it back. good luck.

mine is in /mnt/home/ and it can't find it.

# PATH=/mnt/home/:$PATH
bash: the: No such file or directory

then install angryIP it won't run from menu. did the # PATH=/mnt/home/:$PATH again with no luck.

from the console #angryIP show no such command.

The only Nvidia pet I saw was NVIDIA-x86-260.19.44-2.6.38.2snow.pet ....if that's the one you installed it's the wrong kernel version.......Ice Puppy now has 2.6.38.4......
HTH.

Pemasu, looks like I'm not the only one who's going on 36+hours with 2 hours sleep. they say it's not the destination but the trip that is important, stop and smell the roses....I hate roses.

Space....New Frontier....Looking forward to having an opportunity for the next adventure.

Thanks for your follow-thru, Pemasu. Thanks

Polar pup looks good nice effects. Have 4 pets Broadcom_sta=5.100.82.38.lupe22/18/15/5 couldn't get Polar Pup wl driver loaded.

Pemasu, would any of the above drivers work?

[pemasu]

Jim3630. Lol. You are the early bird. I have just uploaded the iso while I was sleeping. I havent done real announcement page yet. I will make your required wl pet, acpi_call and ndiswrapper pet.
I just havent had time yet. I need to some other works today. It goes to the evening before I have time to work with Puppies.

In a console issue PATH=<the path to your java binary>:$PATH

mine is in /mnt/home/ and it can't find it.

then install angryIP it won't run from menu. did the # PATH=/mnt/home/:$PATH again with no luck.

from the console #angryIP show no such command.

The path to your binary isn't correct
Should be something like /mnt/home/jrexxxxxxxx/bin

[pemasu]

I have now uploaded the pet and sfs of the newer java I used and tested last night.

Thanks Beem, sorry don't have the keyboard to spell your name correctly.

But angyIP even from the console shows no such command.

Fresh frugal test install of Ice Puppy-014. I installed the above jre pet and after that my java application acpi tool gui started ok, also Angry Ip worked and scanned my network.

So for me that jre pet works. People with previous jre, I suggest to remove your previous jre installations and test the above jre pet or sfs.
Separate application over 10 mb, I have tendency to use as sfs.

[gcmartin]

Works

Code: Select all

sh-4.1# java -version
java version "1.6.0_25"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_25-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode, sharing)

sh-4.1# java
Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
           (to execute a class)
   or  java [-options] -jar jarfile [args...]
           (to execute a jar file)

where options include: ... 

Thanks for this addition. You are a master in understanding a specific area and addressing it! This is truly a premier effort that comes from you.

I have appealed to 01Micko for any knowledge he may have on problems with QuickPET, as, he may know something to help.

Hope this helps.
P.S. I find it hard to believe you are just one person. You have 3 distros simultaneously helping this community. Wow! My hat's nod to you for this contribution. The automation in yuor factory has to be enormous. Thanks Pemasu.

I now will turn my head to do some systems testing for you on Polar.

... Separate application over 10 mb, I have tendency to use as sfs.

I understand your preference.

For me, the I prefer PETs as the vehicle to adding functionality to my Live media environment. This is because after adding various useful item while running a Puppy session, i can shutdown and have Puppy save all work for me back to the Live media. This save-session (a point-in-time backup) allow my PC to restart at the point I left off. I am aware of other Puppy mechanism for doing this (frugal-full), but my preference is to maintain the OS on an off-line rewrite media for many good reason. I have not found SFSs to offer this kind of flexibility for Live media. And on reboots, I have to restart SFS load tools to use meet the application requirements I need.

Your PET(s) work extremely well. The size advantage is of NO meaning to me as the running RAM OS nowhere closely saturates my system memory. And, with SWAP on an USB/HDD, I have NEVER been able to saturate my PUPs....not yet.

Thanks PEMASU for your work in changing the performance definition, positively, for all of us in the community who have used your contributions.
