Question to all

I compiled the sipe plugin to be able to chat with office communicator users, and in my test environment (fd64-final) the office communicator choice is displayed in pidgin.

For work I use the fd64-RC version and the oc-choice does not show up in the pidgin-menu.

To be sure I compiled some pet packages and tested the install in a fd64 final on a usb-stick, same result, the office communicator choice is displayed in pidgin.

So, final works, RC does not.


Does someone have an idea what is missing/wrong in my RC-release so I can fix this? Would save me a bunch of time.

cheers

Hans,

I can only guess. Since you compiled the plugin, there's the possibility that there's a dependency missing that the devx file contains. That's assuming the computer with the problem doesn't have the devx file installed. Try running ldd on your plugin and make sure it has everything it needs.

Hello Kirk,

True that I compiled in final, of course with the final-devx, and tested in a fd64-final on stick without devx, both work.

Then I used this install on fd64-rc, with the appropiate devx.

And I also compared ldd between rc and final, and they are exactly the same, and no missing libs.

Weird eh? Maybe I should compile on the fd64 install. Something I try to avoid normally, I depend on it for work.

Could it be that the RC- devx is missing something?

PET update:
a) ddrescue uploaded (requested by gcmartin)
b) evince updated (now should handle URL properly instead of bailing out with errors) - thanks to technosaurus for this gtk_show_uri replacement.
cheers!

Hey Kirk or Jamesbond,

For S&G's I tried installing the Filezilla pet from the Lucid pet share on ibiblio (http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/puppylinux/pet_packages-lucid/FileZilla-3.3.3-Lucid.pet).

The pet creates a launch icon under the "Network" group. Clicking on the icon doesn't do anything, so I opened up URXVT and entered 'filezilla' and got:

Joe,
All puppies other than Fatdog64 and Lighthouse64 are 32-bit. Their pets are not compatible and will not work with Fatdog64.
...
...
Unless, you install the 32-bit compatibility library.
...
...
But please bear in mind that the 32-bit compatibility library is based on Wary 5.0. If the pet you're trying to use doesn't work in Wary 5.0, there is little chance it will work under 32-bit compatibility library for Fatdog64 too.

You will have better chance using 64-bit Debian Lenny packages (you still have to chase the libs as Fatdog doesn't have support for apt-get).

cheers!

I have been trying to process some video in Pburn with this error...


Pburn version 3.3.7

Also note that the latest versions of Pburn require gtkdialog 0.8 - a 64 bit pet would be helpful

First, I want to thank the developers of FatDog. It's the best Pup I've used. Running 520 on an amd64 with 4g of ram. Have a ntfs hard drive for the save files. Almost everything is great.

The issue I'm having relates to frisbee addressing the ip adaptor. After it's done, after it reports that the ip address is aquired, the tray disappears. This happens almost 100% of the time. I have to exit to the console and type 'xwin' to get the tray to reappear. After this it will stay until the inet adaptor gets readdressed. The tray is at the top of the desktop. I'm using openbox.

I tried the tip below hoping that would alter the behavior, but because I don't have a wifi card frisbee has that entire dialog grayed out, and I cannot uncheck the 'enable' box.

I looked at all the scripts I could find but didn't see any place where I could change that setup. Hope someone has the fix for this.

Thanks again to all who put FatDog together.
