Is Slacko using a different version of the PET installer? I installed some home-made PETs and in each case Slacko changed the menu icon in the /usr/share/applications file to something different. When I manually changed it back to the original file, it worked fine. No other Puppy does this.

stock current woof.. I have seen this though... when I installed nathan-wallpaper during tests, actually the icon ended up a broken symlink.. it is one anyway but not broken, I do recall same happening with another pet

Thanks
rcrns51 and 01micko

for your responses to the pppoe problem.

I did try "history -c" but to no avail.

shinobar's downloads don't seem to include a pppoe fix, at least I couldn't find anything with pppoe in its name.

Well, anyway, there must be something that is different in Slacko, then e.g. Lucid 529, which also has K2.6.37.6 and connects properly with pppoe.

Just as a general observation and stricly FYI (no criticism intended):

The last Puppy where pppoe ran without any fuzz was ttuuxxx's 432V3.
There and in earlier versions (431, 421) it was sufficient to setup PPPoe in its GUI and then make a link from /usr/sbin/pppoe-start_shell to /root/Startup. The connection is established right along with the desktop appearance.

All Puppy 5 series weren't able to do it that simple anymore. I had to write a little startup script

Code: Select all

sleep 12
pppoe-stop_shell
/action
sleep 5
pppoe-stop_shell
/action
sleep 5
pppoe-start_shell
/action
and put it in /root/Startup. Then, and only then, could I get a consistent connection. Maybe there is a simpler way, but this has worked for me.

Now in Slacko I can't even get the first connection, never mind one after a reboot.

Eventually there will be an answer. Leave it to your trusted hands.

jim3630.. I still haven't fixed frisbee which seems your only avenue to a connection. I'll have some time on the weekend to look at it. It has been a big job switching from unofficial to official status. Now that the teething problems from that have been exposed we can progress.
01micko actually it got worked out somewhere around 266, 268 so SNS and connection wizard functioned properly and was all I needed with the broadcom pet to make wifi connection. Frisbee was left in for those who needed it. it is iirc only a matter of the script timing out. perhaps BK did the fix as he maintains sns.

The script /usr/local/petget/installpkg.sh is broken. Line 330 should be

Code: Select all

 FNDICON="`find  /usr/local/lib/X11 /usr/share/pixmaps -maxdepth 2 -name $ICON -o -name $ICON.png -o -name $ICON.xpm -o -name $ICON.jpg | head -n 1`"
This looks like another change that crept into Woof without proper testing.

Confirming pngoverlay bugs. It works great with USB devices, but not as you can see with optical drive, and not with my dedicated SD card reader. USB card readers are no problem. Again, I suspect this is a woof implementation which may be incomplete. There were reports of similar issues with partitions, but as I only have a single partition on this machine, I cant test.

Dave .. you can retrofit

Go to PPM and type "xcb*" in the search box, then choose xcb-utils, restart X when complete, it's only a small lib
