Lucid Puppy 5.2.8 - Updated ISO Version 005 - APR 05 2012
1. Running Lupu-528.005->Firefox-11-Lucid-2->flashplayer11-11.2.202.235
Youtube videos won't play...
Says a plugin is needed, but cannot find a suitable plugin.
The above Firefox and flashplayer fixed the problem in 3-Headed-Dog, but not here in Lupu-528.005
I'd like to use both 3-Headed-Dog AND Lupu-528.004.
Hence...
Any fix available?

Is that the latest flashplayer? Try Menu -> Internet -> Get Flash (in lupu 528-005)Running Lupu-528.005->Firefox-11-Lucid-2->flashplayer11-11.2.202.235
Youtube videos won't play...
Try FF 12? Try Google Chrome 18 which has Flashplayer built-in.

it seems like things are getting ridiculous about the latest flashplayer--I think adobe wants everyone to let flashplayer automatically update itself. That is one reason I have been using Google Chrome mostly--because it handles flashplayer itself.

About Flashplayer,

Anything to make it easier for Chrome to track and record what you do. Google info collection stream.
Google watching and recording all we do.
Does seem some of the complaining, about information collection, has changed their policy. So they claim.
Notice you have to make specific setting changes to stop it.

You mention Lupu-528.005 at the beginning of your post, and Lupu-528.004 at the end. Which Lupu are you using? I just got flashplayer11-11.2.202.235 on my 528.004 with Firefox 12 and YouTube works fine. I tested several videos. My FireFox was installed with the pet for FF 9.0.1-2 for Lucid and i upgraded to FF 12 by using the Help-About Firefox-Check for Updates method.Sylvander wrote:1.

1. @playdayz:
(a) I have getflash-0.9.9.pet installed and used it to install flashplayer11-11.2.202.235, which is the latest version offered by getflash.
(b) Firefox-11 has now auto-updated to firefox-12, but this still cannot play Youtube videos.
Do you think that uninstalling Firefox-12 obtained by auto-update, and installing Firefox-12 using the PET you linked would be worth trying?
(c) I already have installed "Google_Chrome-18-Lucid", and that plays Youtube videos OK.
(d) The reason I got into this at this time is because FTT at www.pcguide.com/vb/ cannot get sound [video is OK] on a George Carlin Youtube video in his desktop [Windows?] OS...
And I was trying to help with that.

Even Google Chrome won't play sound in this particular video.

Unable to attempt your suggestion by using the Settings Manager, because it won't display because Flash isn't functioning.
The warning says Flash is needed, which implies it isn't installed, and yet it is installed.
2. @Brown Mouse
Decided to try FlashPlayer-11.2.202.228, but....
It isn't offered as a choice by getflash-0.9.9, and...
Cannot find a PET file for it.

Both versions of VLC play some of my test video clips in good sync. Whereas Gmplayer's audio gets as much as 20 seconds ahead of the video.
However, both VLC player abort on many videos with a message of:

The interface for this one is rather difficult to configure also. Particularly how to get an fwd/reverse slider bar eludes me.

In Gnome Mplayer
Try adjusting any settings that deal with cache higher. Keep in mind that higher settings will cause it to not play until the cache fills up.
Mplayer tab-

play around with cache setting.
Start with a low cache setting like 100 and adjust up. This is fine tuning. (too much cache can cause problems)

With this change I got the control bar but no video at all.Video display would flash on for a fraction of a second, then disappear.Video output: Maybe try XV (this should effect quality)

In PPM uninstall flashplayer.
Reboot (never know what is locked in memory).
Reinstall Flash with Getflash.
Not sure, but probably good idea to have all browsers, not running, when installing Flash.

I assume you know how to use SFS packages with frugal installs of Puppy.

WOOHOO!
Your suggestion produced the fix.
I should mention something of significance as follows:
(a) I had previously used a program totally different to getflash-0.9.9...
The one that fetches and installs the .tar.gz file given at the flashplayer website.
(b) When I'd uninstalled that previous flashplayer version [listed as "flashplayer" only with no version info in the PPM]...
It didn't remove the "flashplayer" entry in the PPM.
This had always caused me to be concerned, but I did nothing about it because I had no idea what to do.
However...
(c) This time...
After having removed flashplayer11-11.2.202.235...
I then removed "flashplayer", and got a red warning [see screenshot below].
Every other time I'd uninstalled this "flashplayer" from the PPM, success was reported [no red warning], but the entry remained.
So anyway, this time...
(d) I found the entry for "flashplayer" in "/root/.packages/user-installed-packages", and deleted it.
I also deleted the folder branch for the flashplayer. [risky or what?]
(e) Then used getflash-0.9.9 to re-install flashplayer11-11.2.202.235.
And the George Carlin video at Youtube PLAYS just fine!

Hi playdayz, I have been investigating this further and have found a way to install Lucid 528.005 or LupuPlus to my USB stick. It is rather strange, but here is what works:playdayz wrote:Could you try Lupu Plus and see if the same thing happens?I have encountered a problem with a USB boot freeze when installing Lucid 528.005 (or Saluki...) on my Acer netbook.
1) Format the stick using Gparted from a live CD of Puppy 4.3.1
2) Run the 4.3.1 universal installer and install 4.3.1
3) Reboot the computer with the Lupuplus CD, then plug in the usb stick, manually remove the 4.3.1 vmlinuz, initrd.gz and .sfs then run the LupuPlus universal installer and install Lupu to the stick.
I don't know why the Gparted/Universal Installer from 4.3.1 works when relying on the inbuilt Lupu Gparted/Universal installer doesn't work for me, but I am covering my research into this issue on another topic.
Anyway, if anyone is having problems creating a Lucid 528.005 or LupuPlus USB stick for the purposes of booting an Acer eMachines N450 netbook, give this a try.

LupuPlusLibre528.005-2
Just did a frugal install of LupuPlusLibre528.005-2 on an MSi Wind U160. This is pretty much a generic netbook, Atom processor, 1GB RAM, molasses in January. For you southern-hemisphere types, that's a cold month here.
LupuPlusLibre works very well. It's snappy and rock-stable, and I'm impressed with the LibreOffice integration. SWriter takes about 3 1/2 seconds to load, amazing for this machine.
I did have some problems with wireless. So what else is new, right? SNS would not configure the RT2860 chip at all, Dougal's network wizard would but would not survive reboot. IMHO this is a timing issue, with my home network it almost always is. However, Frisbee seems to deal with the delays with no problems.
FOR ANYONE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH WIRELESS CONFIG IN PUPPY I RECOMMEND TRYING FRISBEE!
Everything else works OOTB. Once again, pats on the back to Playdayz and the other devs.
One thing: does anyone have a way to use TV tuner cards in Puppy? I have several machines with them (this one has a USB stick), and while GMPlayer has a "live TV" setting it has no way to control channels. There seem to be modules loaded for this one and a Hauppage PCI card in another computer, but no way I've found to actually use them. Amazingly enough, the little netbook will actually play live HDTV in Windows!
