I've never done a remaster so am not in a good position to advise. Suggest you post on a "remastering" thread if you can find one that's been active recently - but again you must provide a lot more detail of your problem - exactly how is your system configured (what kind of install on what media etc) and what packages you had added and removed? If it worked previously then it must be something you did subsequently that stopped it working again.johnywhy wrote:Hi
On LxPupTahr, i ran the remastering program. I chose the correct options to produce an iso file. At the end, it says the ISO was created.
But there's no ISO. See screenshot.
Remastering on this pup installation worked for me previously. I made an ISO earlier today with no problem.
Then i added/removed various packages from my live pup, using "remove built-in packages" and "package manager" apps.
I don't know if this is related, but I noticed the dependency checker says i'm missing "libntfs-3g841", but i cannot find this package in the package manager, nor in http://packages.ubuntu.com.
However, "which ntfs-3g" returns "/bin/ntfs-3g".
sda2 is an ext2 partition.

Workaround for Remaster not producing ISO
I don't have the scripting skills to figure out or fix the failure of the built in remaster to create an ISO.
Pending that solution, there's a workaround you could try,
Remaster left the puppylivecdbuild on your sda2 drive. You can install and use shinobar's dir2iso, http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 748#638748.

p.s. My ignorance is often a cause for optimism: I could hope that installing dir2iso will write-in or overwrite the missing/broken "write to iso" part of remaster's script. On the other hand, dir2iso may depend on that script being installed and functional and not work at all.
Or more than just remaster's write iso routine is broken, and so consequently will be the Pup generated by dir2iso.

Re: Experimental LxPup-15.04

LxPup is a very nice puppy derivative!
Tested and working well on a few machines: Lenovo R60, Acer ZG5 and some generic clones.
Just a couple of minor differences I notice compared to other puppies like Precise, Slacko, Tahr or X-slacko:
- .4fs save files do not automatically mount and open when clicked on like .2fs/.3fs files.
- don't have a file delete option only a "Move to Trash" option, so that in order to cleanly remove any changes from a drive you have to move to trash, empty trash, and then maybe also delete the .Trash-0 directory that pops up on the drive.

Thanks for your report - sorry its taken me a little time to investigate - you are correct wrt .4fs files and I am flummoxed!!
As far as I know, I haven't made any changes that would affect .4fs differently to .2fs/.3fs files - but it is the case that rox opens .4fs files but pcmanfm doesn't.
So the fix is to use rox from the menu -> Filesystem to get to the .4fs and when you click on it pcmanfm will open with the contents.
When I have time I will try to find the reason and a fix....
The fix for a right click permanent delete is to add the optional right-clicks package from
menu -> desktop appearance -> options
In pcmanfm there is also a remove option in the edit menu - so select the file you want to delete and then use that.
Cheers

No problem, just some casual observations.
Don't know how many people open up and look into their save files, I just happened to be doing it troubleshooting something else. Not a big deal, didn't mean to send you off on a snipe hunt. Playing with Puppies is mainly recreational for me.
Thanks for the tips on PCManFM, both worked like a charm!

So far, LxPup the winning puppy
xfce is more ambitious, but lxde seems more stable
question, i exited lx to prompt, and ran 'xwin jwm'. Now i can't seem to get back to lxde.
i tried 'exec lxde', but does not work.
when i reboot, i go back into jwm, instead of lxde. also, i keep getting a message that says something like "desktop manager is not active".
Can you help?
thx!

Have you tried the DE Switcher in

There is a JWM switch available. Use the DE Switcher to return to LXDE.
There are also XFCE modules available to download and switch to.

OK reason = missing line from /usr/share/applications/defaults.listpeebee wrote:When I have time I will try to find the reason and a fix....
Fix - run in terminal:
Code: Select all
echo "application/x-ext4-image=filemnt.desktop" >> /usr/share/applications/defaults.list
defaults.list comes from the base Puppy used to build LxPup - the line is missing in both Slacko and TahrPup.
Has been corrected "up-stream" in WoofCE by Mavrothal (thanks) - https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/w ... 0503d9e499

I inserted that into defaults.list and it worked immediately. Figured it was something simple like a file association. I was searching for a ".4fs" somewhere (ala windows mindset) but couldn't find.

hi,
i have a frugal LxPrecise and a stock Precise as frugal installs in separate folders on the same partition.
Problem, when i booted LxPrecise, it used the SaveFile from the stock Precise.
I tried to switch to LXDE, but 'start LXDE' did not work. Also, no good because it pulled in all my settings from the stock Precise.
fyi
thx!

hello
thx for all the puppy's!
Issue: in a new LxPrecise (no save file), when i right-click a menu item, and choose "add to desktop", nothing gets added to the desktop. Later, i changed my wallpaper, and was able to do this.
Issue: If i right-click on the desktop, and create a shortcut, and put a terminal command into the shortcut, the terminal command does not get executed when i click on the shortcut. I tested the command in a terminal to confirm it works.
thx!

Just tested LxPupPrecise-15.02.1-retro
and it works fine - you do need to install the optional right-clicks package to enable shortcut editing.
Suggest you put psubdir=<your folder name> into your menu.lst boot parameters.johnywhy wrote:Problem, when i booted LxPrecise, it used the SaveFile from the stock Precise.

Thx, will research how. Request, if possible, include that in the iso?you do need to install the optional right-clicks package to enable shortcut editing.
Just checked, and it already is there. But that did not prevent LxPrecise from using the save-file from a frugal stock Precise in a different folder.Suggest you put psubdir=<your folder name> into your menu.lst boot parameters.
Here's the grub entry:
Code: Select all
title Puppy lxprecise 14.02 (sda1/LxPrecise)
kernel /LxPrecise/vmlinuz psubdir=LxPrecise pmedia=atahd pfix=fsck
initrd /LxPrecise/initrd.gz
Just a thought, since 'frugal' install is an essential puppy thing, seems like puppy should know to ignore other frugals, imo.

That's an old version - 14.02 = Feb 2014 - hasn't been updated for some time - I really expect people to use the LxPupTahr versions non-retro pae.....I keep the non-pae retro version more up to date as that has a place for older hardware with an older kernel.johnywhy wrote:LxPupPrecise-14.02-pae-sp1.iso

The Right Clicks option is included in the iso (however its an old version in LxPupPrecise-14.02) - menu -> desktop appearance -> options
Your boot should not be picking up savefiles belonging to other pups - different names - can't explain why it is - never does on my installs....

Thx, can you give link to newest LxPrecise?
Tahr is newer, but I prefer Precise because it is peppier.
UPDATE: just letting peeps know that in private message with peebee, we figured out i am running the latest LxPrecise PAE, and there are no plans to update it. Sad, since to me Precise seems noticeably faster than Tahr. Planning to try Unicorn....

why i prefer lxprecise to lxtahr: stuff works.
lxtahr:
- after first reboot with save, frisbee did not auto connect, nor even load available networks. see pic showing could not connect on lxTarh. (might be cuz i need to blacklist wl module, dint check yet).
- could not load virtualbox sfs. see pic of error message trying to open virtualbox on lxTarh.
lxprecise: both worked, no problem. see pic showing good connection and vbox on lxPrecise.

How can i find source of bigness?
