Slacko uses the woof df while Lupu df-FULL , which is ok in frugal mode .
The slacko freememapplet_tray is compiled for the Lupu df output .
#
WOOF BUG :
/bin/umount
Since i have installed slacko full to sda10
running /usr/local/Partview/pdff.pl
by clicking the freememapplet_tray icon
the sda1 alway showed as mounted on the desktop
thought it had been successfully unmounted .
The problem is with grep '/dev/sda1' not doing a grep -w '/dev/sda1' :
simply grep would also grep sda10 up to sda19 .
Adding -w to grep for the mount_icon part of /bin/umount seems to have solved this :
I am expecting few more to come in this df and mount issue .
#
Other than this no real problems so far .
I really like the slacko modprobe compiled with zlib support opposed to debian/ubuntu modprobe !
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !

Just manually upgraded the Slacko frugal install on my Windows 7/PCLOS/Lucid box from 5.30 to 5.31.Other than needing to quickly redo my icon layout everything appears to have upgraded fine with all previously installed apps still functioning normally.

SOLVED - HDD always spins
HDD-active light is always illuminated whether booting with or without save-file. Lucid 5.28 not doing this. Any information i can provide?
EDIT: Same machine, clean 5.3.1-004 install to manual-frugal USB flash drive. Does not exhibit this behavior. Oh well, another non-issue.

viewnoir and no ascii chars
Tried on Slacko + lang_pack_ja-1.4.sfs and has no problem.zigbert wrote:There seems to be an issue with viewnoir......
Works fine for filenames containing only english chars
So, it is not the issue of the vewnoir itself.
I have not tried the lang_pack_all yet.

Re: viewnoir and no ascii chars
Confirmed on the native(without lang_pack) Slacko 5.3.1 MAIN with RAM mode.shinobar wrote:en_US.UTF-8 is OK except the title bar.
Of course the Japanese filename is unreadable because of lacking the font, but no problem in showing the image.
To set the locale with UTF-8, choose 'en (English)' or any language on the Country wizard. Tick on 'UTF-8' checkbox appears on the next window.

01micko, here's the fix for the Slackware libpng, which is a 'lil bit smaller:
I added this to the libpng FIXUPHACK and now stuff seem to compile just fine!
Code: Select all
ln -s libpng14.pc ./usr/lib/pkgconfig/libpng.pc
ln -s libpng14 ./usr/include/libpng
ln -s libpng/png.h ./usr/include
ln -s libpng/pngconf.h ./usr/include

Ok, so this is the trick Thank you.shinobar wrote:To set the locale with UTF-8, choose 'en (English)' or any language on the Country wizard. Tick on 'UTF-8' checkbox appears on the next window.
I meant that this option was available in the main window earlier ? Maybe I wrong....
If I set it to nb_NO I don't get a second window.

Re: viewnoir and no ascii chars
Wow! it is the bug of the 'Country wizard' i have to fix.zigbert wrote:If I set it to nb_NO I don't get a second window.
Use the 'Choose locale' instead

Sorry if this comment is late...
Sadly, I don't have a working Dell server with Fusion MPT interfaces to test

Yes, actually Adaptec AIC-7892A U160/m....and I'm not booting from harddrive mbr/grub, as I'm using noryb's win installer version, though boot is finding the savefile/s and sfs, so I presumed it would, as I had an earlier Dell server working OK with a previous scsi booting puppy that Barry didtempestuous wrote:I'm unfamiliar with Woof, but that's interesting. It appears that a basic set of SCSI drivers (as specified by Barry) is then included in the initrd.01micko wrote:Barry has an option in Woof.. Boot scsi, I accepted this for k2.6.29.4 and in this release k2,6,37.6
Obviously the 3 new Fusion SCSI drivers are not included, so if desired these would need to be manually inserted (and modules.dep updated) ...
or maybe the Woof script could be modified to automatically include these new modules?
But anyway, no one has specifically asked for boot support from a Fusion SCSI interface at this stage.
Yes, it appears that booting from SCSI works, that's great ...01micko wrote:Aitch has reported success on an old server box of his a few pages back.
but of course Aitch's SCSI hardware uses the aic7xxx SCSI driver, nothing to do with the 3 new drivers.

Are your eyes painted on? Or is there paint in your eyes? (yes, pathetic art humour! I know you've been busy at the canvas )zigbert wrote:GrubConfig is not found in the menu. If this is intentional (to only offer Grub4Dos), there is a message in the universal installer mentioning GrubConfig.

I knew it was there as I did test for Sage, it's in the announcement thread.

Truly, my eyes are covered by dark oil painting.
But why is Grub4Dos placed in 2 dfferent menus, while Legacy Grub only in System menu? Please give me a logic answer

Hi zigbert,
I assume that the placement of Grub4Dos in 2 different menus was a trivial oversight but, now you have pointed this out, I have used Pmenu to hide both entries. I can temporarily unhide them if I want to make any changes.
As regards the "green" I seem to recall 01micko commented "you'll love it or hate it". Personally, I love it.
My regards and thanks for all your Puppy programs.

Slacko-5.3.1 /usr/share/applications/Grub4DosConfig.desktop
has got two entries for the /etc/xdg/menus/hierarchy :
Categories=X-SystemMemory;X-SetupUtility
/usr/share/applications/Grub-bootloader-config.desktop
Categories=X-SystemMemory
while Racy-5.2.2 Grub4DosConfig.desktop for example
has only one entry :
Categories=X-SystemMemory
(version 1.7.1)
Grub-bootloader-config.desktop
Categories=X-SystemMemory
