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.

Tested! 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.

come from 5.6.1 and just install and run precise 5.7.1. plug my usb broadband modem with microsd inside modem but it cant detect my microsd. (external usb thumb/flash HDD just fine) have not had this issue in precise 5.6.1. any solutions?
ok, i think i manage to find the solution to the problem by restart X server everytime i plugged in my modem. it solved the problem although mount it through pmount sometimes seem to work but in my case the drive icon wont or not appear on the desktop for most of the times.

PostPosted: Fri 04 Oct 2013, 11:07    Post subject: 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,

@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
