Python Subject description: Tkinter |
|
Maybe this is not the place for this question..
I am trying to write some Python code to interface to an Arduino system (using serial port). II have 5.7.1 and the devx loaded.
I did install the pySerial package (but that is besides the question here).
I want to create a GUI, and (as in the examples) try to import Tkinter with:
Code: | from Tkinter import * |
I get error messages from this line.
Anyone tried using Tkinter in puppy before ? Or what is the preferred GUI programming in Python .. PyGTK ?
I hope someone can put me on the right track..
Thanks.
P.S. tried the same in Slacko 5.3.3, and get a different error message from the same line. It can's find a lib.

hi Volhout,
you didn't post the error message.... but i managed to use the command without an error...
you'll need python-tk and blt (that's BLT) from the PPM ..... type it in the find box.
i believe pygtk (python-gtk2) is used by modern gui apps though

666philb,
Thanks,
Ik will try this tonight. I was just confused by the fact that it didn't work ootb since it is part of the devx. Apparently nobody uses it, since the missing libs where not identified in the bug thread.
Your suggestion for gtk2 libs also suggests installing lib's that are not in the devx.
So I am wondering...what is included in the devx. What am I supposed to do with python in the form it is included in the devx. If anything I want to do with it requires me to install packages, then we could put the whole python in PPM as a package. Or did I miss the point ?
I will install, and feedback if it works.

BarryK, if you're reviewing the thread, this fix resolves the "Print-to-File" bug.
Thanks, @Rcrsn51! |

Subject: 4 bugs in the XKB Configuration Manager
Subjetc description: (xkbconfigmanager)
Recently, while musher0 and I were helping a new forum member with some keyboard stuff (http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=725598#725598), I realized that one problem seemed familiar. Sure enough, I found my old bug report, work-arounds, suggested fixes, and patch file here:
Racy Puppy 5.2.2 Final, 18 Nov. 2011: 4 bugs in the XKB Configuration Manager (xkbconfigmanager)
These bugs remain in Precise 5.7.1.

creation of blanck pupsave |
|
Usually, to create an additional pupsave file, I use the script below.
Code: | #!/bin/sh
dd if=/dev/zero of=precisesave2.3fs bs=1M count=256
yes y | mkfs.ext3 -q -m 0 -F precisesave2.3fs |
But with Precise (5.7.1) it does not work well. When restarting the computer, I get an error message (see screenshot below).
What can I do to make the additional pupsave compatible with Precise?
Cordialement,

"mount- desktop icon" request for info |
|
@Tui, on your post ===> "pmount- desktop icon", is there a chance you have your PUPPY installed as a Frugal/Full install? And if so, is it installed on SDA2? Or did you make a SWAP "file" and placed it on SDA2?
Here to help
