Replacing missing lib allows Gparted to work....

Problem saving straight 5.3.3 version to DVD. Said it requires a new or updated DVD! UpupPrecise 5.3.3.x has divination capacity since, at approx. the same time I was trying to save, pemasu was presenting version 5.3.3.1... (hehe)

Back to serious: Will check if it is my DVD disk itself or some function in shutdown routine of PrecisePup that's involved.

BFN.

Thank you all of the reports. These helps me a lot, as you know.

Okay...I will add slacko snmp backend.
Is is just /usr/lib/cups/backend/snmp which needs to be replaced.

libatkmm. Yeah. I added it under gparted, but woof would have needed gparted template to be fixed. So I add it as libatkmm. It should be in next version and now I check that it is there.

JJim1911. Could you dmesg and check is it asking firmware which is missing. r8169 kernel module is there so it could be missing firmware. There is now 4 new firmwares in firmware git repository, so....it might be fixable by adding missing firmware.
dmesg tells you if it complains about spesific firmware.

Install cmake-data with PPM.

Added to pkgs specs. Thanks !!!

5.3.3 runs nice and stable on my VM.

Trying to compile some drivers noticed that xorg_dev_7.6 is not in the devx. No big deal. The one from the ubuntu repo solved it

Nice Version!

Having trouble with the ATI Radeon 6450 driver.

This has been the case with recent Puppys, but have so far managed to work around the problem by compiling the proprietary driver from the ATI website.

I can't however seem to be able to get an error-free compile using this Upup. I'm using the kernel sources as provided by the sfs and the amd-driver-installer-12-3-x86.x86_64.run downloaded ATI driver.

The open source Radeon driver seems to be kaput in the latest kernels. This is the one I actually prefer.

Would any of the Slacko ATI FGLRX pets be of any use? Has anyone had any joy using any of these?

In the meantime the VESA driver allows me to have a GUI desktop.

It's enough to show the potential that this version has. Yes, I think this would make a great official Puppy.
It's got the necessary look and feel as well.

I normally compile GKrellM but this time I used a deb I found. When I went to compile the weather plugin I got this result. No biggie for me but wanted to put my report in.

I can't however seem to be able to get an error-free compile using this Upup. I'm using the kernel sources as provided by the sfs and the amd-driver-installer-12-3-x86.x86_64.run downloaded ATI driver.

kernel module source has needed patching with recent ATI versions and 3.2.X and over kernels. The patching has been posted recently in howto section.

Yep, got it - thanks Pemasu. FGLRX compiles OK now.

Simple patch here for anyone who needs it:

I've just seen pemasu has uploaded a new version of Upup Precise, so MAYBE this is still relevant, like it has been just yesterday.
There still seems to be some library-backfiring in the crypto/ssl area, and before pemasu goes on, this needs to clear up:
backup /lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 to whatever (for now)
link /lib/libssl.so.1.0.0 to /lib/libssl.so.0.9.8
add libevent-openssl-2.0-5_2.0.16
link:
/usr/lib/libevent_openssl.so
/usr/lib/libevent_openssl-2.0.so.5
to the new /usr/lib/libevent_openssl-2.0.so.5.1.4 instead of 5.1.3
Test again, cry for help.
Although, by the final release the whole ssl-pack will need to be replaced.

This is bigger thing than first seems. Doing so...means that apps needing older 0.9.7-0.9.8 are not fooled with just symlinking. It means compiling them against libssl 1.0

Well...lefting 0.9.8 out surely soon shows what apps needs recompiling. I did compile Transmission-2.51 against libssl.so.1.0.

What else needs recompiling...someone could tell....

Libevent was the older version due to Transmision. Already updated it to use Precise Pangolin version and I did create symlinks to the older version. Will be in next uploaded Upup Precise.

I simply installed the latest Precise debs for libsll.0.9.8, libsll.1.0.0 and opensll on Barry's Precise Pup. Everything I have tested works.

Yes...but that means that you have both of them libssl 0.9.8 and 1.0 on your system. If there is concensus that only libssl 1.0, updated later to security updated version is the safe way....apps depending the libsll 0.9.8 is not fooled with just symlink. You will get version symbol error.

I had already 0.9.8 and 1.0 versions included, both of them...question is...is just 1.0 safer and better solution and how many apps relies on 0.9.8. I think this was discussed and updated in Lucid Puppy. Playdayz et al could answer this.

Yeah...I would need Playdayz as "silent" advicer in this...I suppose he will check this thread at some time...

Here is another guide to compile latest ATI proprietary driver. It seems to have the patch I have posted.

@pemasu & upup-precise kennel:

As it stands, there is no growisofs in upup precise... nowhere.

The problem is solved by downloading & installing growisofs from
http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/video/growisofs
just after you've specified your regional parameters, etc.
Click on shutdown, click on ''save to cd / dvd'', let the script do its stuff.
On reboot all will be ok, you will be able to boot upup-precise and save your work to cd / dvd.

Writing this from upup-precise entirely on DVD.

Proof: see the big plus sign in attached pic.

Regards.

PS. No libs are missing.

Another thing: the locales list in the parameter setting panel on first boot is incomplete.

The Earth on which Upup-Precise operates is missing three continents : North America, Central America and South America.

Luckily this alien knew his TZ by heart!

BFN.

Thanks. I created a pet of it.

Jim1911.
Try this pet. It has the firmware your dmesg requested.

time zone comes from tzdata package. It installs the timezone stuff to the /usr/share/timezone/*

Woof packages-templates...under glibc screws ubuntu new format of timezones. It means that it removes American continents. Not big deal some might think....but it disturbs the time zone selections and that is bad thing.

I will test how to fix the glibc packages-template.

EDIT. Got it. Just remove the previous content from zoneinfo template folder and add PLUSEXTRAFILES and PLUSEXTRADIRS into it.

I wonder how many other templates needs fixing.
