It would be better to get them from the repo. You need gstreamer and all the gst-plugins-* packages. I may have not entered in the deps correctly. I'll test this type of thing soon.

You can just download directly.

mkdir -p "${ADRVSFS}/root/.packages/"

cp -rP "${SRCDIR}"/*/* "${ADRVSFS}" 2>/dev/null
rm "${ADRVSFS}/pet.specs"
rm "${ADRVSFS}/pinstall.sh"
rm "${ADRVSFS}/puninstall.sh"
rm "${ADRVSFS}/*.xpm"
rm "${ADRVSFS}/*.png"

Excellent. Looking forward to this.

You always have my support and happy to help where possible, time permitting.

Count me in for beta-testing. I'll be using Saluki exclusively. By the way, adrive as an sfs is ingenious. Thanks for the heads up about Saluki, jemimah. I'm very impressed, and a bit excited by Saluki's potential.

I'm using Saluki 9, and have had no problems so far, except my Harry Potter DVD hanged in Xnoise (the only DVD to do so, so it could be the DVD itself). Love Thundar. That was my choice, too. Midori seems to be working good. Is it HTML5 by default? I've never used Frisbee before, but I had no problem figuring out how to connect via encrypted wifi. It was very intuitive.

I'm going to leave your default apps as they are. Testing should be more fruitful that way. I can always modify to my preferences at a later, more stable time.

And thanks again...

By the way, what does the name Saluki represent? If it was covered in an earlier post. I apologize. I certainly don't wan't to waste your time; obviously, you have been incredibly busy. But curiosity is getting the best of me :)

How did you get DVDs to open in Xnoise? I thought that was unsupported. Did you try the dvd in Ogle?

Midori was built with html5 video support. Midori is the only browser (I think) that uses the system media playback libraries for web video - a real boon for keeping things small. However, the webkit libraries that midori is built on are still pretty unstable so you'll probably want a different browser for doing anything important.

Not quite sure why fotoxx is crashing . . .
It was working
reinstalled - still getting this . . .
It may be Cairo-dock took something with it when I uninstalled . . .

I think this version of fottoxx is not so great. It can get screwed up if you try to cancel the little sync process it does at the first run. Perhaps we need to use an older version instead.

It's looking good now, I installed the Nvidia driver for my GeForce 8600 gt card and that made quite a difference, now it seems a lot snappier,
Cairo Dock works nice now, I installed Redshift GUI, that works since I installed the driver, see stu90's post for the download link http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 119#446119

Installed xvidcap and avidemux these work fine so far with the few test I've done

xvidcap 1.1.7 http://www.4shared.com/account/file/799 ... _i386.html

avidemux-AIO-2.5.3-i486 http://www.datafilehost.com/download-8f2c76b6.html this is largish, so I extracted it and turned the directory into a sfs, has the option to open with a GTK2 or QT4 gui

Saluki-010 has been released. Happy tenth release everyone!

New in 010:

This is mostly a bugfix release.

I've also done some work on streamlining the PPM. Sfs_load is now integrated into the ppm and rxvt downloads are a thing of the past.

Full installs are hopefully fixed.

Indeed :D
Is it using the 009 devx or the new one is still uploading?

From the first post
The Devx is unchanged since 009 so just rename the 009 devx for 010.

Missed that. Thx

On a fresh frugal without adrv and before a first save. (eg now :D )

Installed from PPM in order and opened each one from terminal before the next pet installation :
midori: error while loading shared libraries: libgstpbutils-0.10.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
streamtuner: /root/.streamtuner/config:150: live365: no such handler

Firefox OK
Geany OK
xarchiver OK
ristretto OK
gnumeric OK
abiword OK
pidgin: error while loading shared libraries: libgstinterfaces-0.10.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (PPM also lists libstnetbuffer-.0.10.so missing but does not attempt to download after "more info")
gFtp OK
ogle OK (though:ogle_vout: /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2: no version information available (required by ogle_vout) )
mtPaint OK
In all cases when "examine dependencies" was suggested all the dependencies where downloaded successfully.

HTH for dep checking (or/and base).

I can get a DVD to play on Xnoise most of the time.
In the terminal emulator I do this (Ken Burns - The Civil War example):

mkdir /mnt/Civil_War_Disc_5
mount /dev/sr0 /mnt/Civil_War_Disc_5

Then, from Xnoise, File Open /mnt/Civil_War_Disc_5/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01_0.VOB

After having had time to test more, I've found that some chapters play fine, some play without audio,
and a couple have froze. Which would make sense if it were unsuported.

I have a few that I have on the hard drive as a large VOB file (the entire DVD content). Some of these play fine,
while with others the video freezes after a short period of time and the audio continues (they used to run in mplayer
with no problem).

That's why I was trying to do this via Xnoise, because I couldn't figure out how to open individual VOB's on Ogle.

Ogle has no problem running my DVD disc, though.

Going to go try out version 10.

The newest Beta of Lucid 528 now works with b43 broadcom.
Lupu-528 TESTING 01a

Has mouse issues....but they will get fixed.

Any chance of contacting playdayz for fixes.

" This is an Experimental ISO - There is so much stuff in it that odds are that something is going to be wrong, but on the other hand, some things have been tested already (such as rerwin's patch-7) and some things are straightforward updates. Thanks especially to rerwin, radky, shinobar, tempestuous, and zigbert for their huge contributions. don570, BarryK, and tasmod also. The wallpaper is by dejan555. "

Jemimah, the microphone recording is working fine in 10.

Also manage to get cairo working a bit better. It can be temperamental.

I'm getting some weird icons and types in Psip. I might have to do some coding in glade to make it better.

The initial error message saying 1280x1024 resolution can't be displayed is still there but a Ctrl+Alt+Backspace and setup in Xorgwizard fixes the problem.

I still can't get SVEN to accept the Windows key when setting up hot-keys. It's no longer a problem though as I have found a work around. Setting up hot-keys in the keyboard setup works just fine. It's not as intuitive as it could be. First you have to select the program you wish to run then press OK, then press the required hot-keys and OK again.

Other than that, no other problems discovered yet.

BTW as cairo has only one dependency why not bundle it with cairo. This would stop a lot of nagging from noobs and probably a few others. :wink:

Cheers.

Ah, ok that explains it.

Gstreamer has a large number of plugins that can be compiled. The difficulty is figuring out which plugins affect what and how.

What's there now is just what was able to compile by default, but adding more plugins could improve problems like this.

The problem is I don't know all that much about AV codecs so it's kind of trial and error.

There is a very basic player called slimp that I use for testing - you have to start it from the command line - it's not on the menu.
