Fun when the forum has problems.

Now that things appear to be back to a state of semi-normal.... Polarpup-002 live multi-session cd. looks good so far.

Should this be reported here? I'm guessing this may something that

FirstRUN/Personalize Settings should address.
Or the hostname command in the terminal has been crippled?
Note: Pay close attention to the HOSTNAME environment variable

Code: Select all

sh-4.1# echo "Set the LAN Hostname at Startup via Personalize Settings to PolarPUP02-Laptop"
Set the LAN Hostname at Startup via Personalize Settings to PolarPUP02-Laptop

sh-4.1# echo "Check system's values to see if all is well"
Check system's values to see if all is well

sh-4.1# hostname
Polar02-Laptop

sh-4.1# cat /etc/hostname
Polar02-Laptop

sh-4.1# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost Polar02-Laptop
192.168.1.1 pc2
192.168.1.2 pc3
192.168.1.3 pc4

sh-4.1# echo "Everything above is what should be expected in Linux, but ..."
Everything above is what should be expected in Linux, but ...


sh-4.1# echo "HOSTNAME error can be seen below!"

Tempestuous has updated the Gnomad2 for access of certain MP3 players.
Libmtp is already included in Polarpup but tempestuous has made the recent Gnomad2 for Lucid Puppies, so that libmtp should not harm Polarpup. Libmtp is newer version in Tempestuous pet.

Gnomad2 is a gui for managing music files on the Creative Nomad/MuVo/Jukebox/Zen range of MP3 players, plus the Dell Digital Jukebox.

Forum malfunction caused gray hairs for those who tried to post feedback yesterday. Thankfully James C responded quickly and got J Murga`s attention.
Thank you both of quick actions.

I think this forum is essential for Puppy, Puplets and for great additional pets which improves the functionality of Puppies. For posting ideas, asking help and getting it this forum is also the best place.

Thanks for this great place and quick actions when needed.

unable in Clementine to set audio output to external tv speakers. Clementine lacks the device selection. I can't figure out how to in the ALSA sound wizard to select ext speakers or is this broken?

Hi pemasu:
Thanks for polar puppy 002! i have installed it on my oldr desktop an ESI box with Pentium III, 1 GHz, 1.5 GB ram, and on my laptop a Thinkpad R60. They both are performing well and have had no problem so far. Also installed Thunderbird mail client from the the quickpet. I am enjoying their performance. Great Job!
Would you advise what is the best way to install Libre office and Java packages for P002?
Is installation of sfs from quick pet OK? Or are there .pet packages available?
Thanks again!

pemasu · #167 Post by **pemasu** » Mon 11 Jul 2011, 15:15

Jim3630. Hah. I think you have found Clementine usable then. I have not tried to use external speakers.
Do you connect by mini-jack ?

pemasu · #168 Post by **pemasu** » Mon 11 Jul 2011, 15:27

Jim3630. I believe you have to get external speakers detected at system level, not from Clementine.
I just tested the connection to my living room stereos. I connected the mini-jack plug to the headphone hole. Then in alsamixer I increased the level in headphone and the sound came from speakers connected to the stereos.
Note, I didnt do any s/pdif tinkering, just headphone setting.
Audio settings are sometimes quite hw spesific. The entries in alsamixer and Retrovol differs in different hw.
And I am not expert in this. Smokey01 is surely more handy for example in audio settings.

Marco07. For java, you can use the java pet from the link.
For Libre Office. I think that 01Mickos Libre Office gui pet is usable. I have still Libre Office as standalone installation and I havent updated it yet.
Iguleder also has something going on regarding Libre Office.

I remember that I had thiskind discussion in Ice Puppy thread and there was some solutions after my miserable intervention.

For Libre Office 3.4

For older sfs libre office:

I'm connected by DMDI 0 (hw 0.3). was able today to output sound to the tv with vlc and SMplayer as they have that function selection built in.

added gnomad2-2-96 and gstreamer_phono-deps-0.0.1 and now have no sound output in notebook or external.
