Just wondering, if you go to "/setup/QuickSetup first run settings" and
check the "Run Internet apps as spot" box, does it break the
flashplugin and cause Firefox to crash? |
Yes indeed.Confirmed.Crashed pretty fast.Got back to root as quick as I could......

CUPS on Slacko-6.0 alpha |
|
Slacko-6.0 alpha frugal install on ext4 partition.
save-to-direcory works fine.
Encountered same CUPS problem as Tahr pup.
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=782576#782576
# /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb
direct usb://EPSON/EP-704A "EPSON EP-704A" "EPSON EP-704A" "MFG:EPSON;CMD:ESCPL2,BDC,D4,D4PX,ESCPR2;MDL:EP-704A;CLS:PRINTER;DES:EPSON EP-704A;CID:EpsonRGB;FID:FXN,DPN,WFN,ETN,AFN,DAN;" ""
But the CUPS web interface does not show my USB printer on the list of the Local Prnters
With the same hardware, Slacko 5.7 and Precise Puppy 571JP is fine.
But the Slacko-6.0 alpha and Tahr Puppy 5.8.0.8 shows same problem.

mksquashfs |

/usr/sbin/mksquashfs in slacko-6.0 alpha is a link to mksquashfs3.
It is to be a link to mksquashfs4.

The version in Slacko 591 has a completely different user interface. How did this happen? Has this modified version become the standard in woof-ce?
What testing did this version get to ensure that nothing broke?
The Help button in the modified version links to the forum page of the official version. So who is taking responsibility for providing user support for the modified version? |
I'll revert if you like, however it has been there since 5.7.

Thanks. I am thinking to remove squash3 support by default. It can be added as a package. I intend to update to mksqushfs-4.3.

Billtoo. I think the problem is that flash is running with the wrong permissions. I think that flash can be installed on a per user basis so it would install to /spot/.mozilla/firefox/$YOUR_PROFILE/plugins/
If you can move it there, run
Code: | cd /spot/.mozilla/firefox/$YOUR_PROFILE/plugins/
chown spot:spot libflashplayer.so |
Or try without inside your profile just in /spot/.mozilla/firefox/plugins/
#Comment: spot has his own group
See how you go. If that's the case then maybe shinobar's getflash can detect if running as spot and move it there automatically.
As far as kde-games go.. I didn't see it in PPM. Have they split it all up? Or was there a mistake an old 14.0 databases were installed? Was there a /usr/share/applications/kde4/ dir created?

xorgwizard and shutdownconfig |
|
My GeForce GTX660ti shows odd with nouveau driver. The label of the pinboard on the desktop cannot see. (EDIT: "nouveau.modeset=0" boot option saved this.)
I go the xorgwizard and chose vesa. The xorgwizard require reboot PC. But the shutdownconfig is not invoked. Therefore, reboots without saving session.

@shinobar: From the Tahr discussion, here is my only suggestion to fix this.
1. Apply the 55-cups.rules patch.
2. Reboot the printer.
3. Confirm that the device node /dev/usb/lp0 has a full set of write permissions.
4. Install in CUPS with the URI: parallel:/dev/usb/lp0
5. Look for error messages.

Testing Slacko 5.9.1
I posted about the Advert Blocker during the RC phase of 5.7 and I know that really it needs to be addressed at the Woof CE level and/or maybe is not important so apologies if I am speaking out of turn by mentioning it again, but I did have a stab at adding some fixes and updates to it. (mvps still doesn't work and technobeta is still dead).
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=59290&start=53
There seems to be some debate over whether 0.0.0.0 is better than 127.0.0.1 and if so then it will need amending for that.
Also, do we need all those grub4dos menu entries?

@Mick: Some updated stuff you may want to consider...
I dropped you this one via PM a couple of months ago, but perhaps you missed it; updated jwmconfig, with two fixes:
- in 'keyboard' script, 'Edit' and 'Delete' buttons might be disabled (happens in ToOpPy, based on Precise-5.4.3 - Argolance spotted it), unless any item in the <tree> is selected and app's window unfocused and focused back again.
- horizontal distribution of radiobuttons ("Snap mode" frame) in "window" script has been corrected.

___________
/usr/sbin/run-pureftpd: tiny, tiny fix for a bug in gettext that prevents final window with some useful info from being displayed
(attached)
___________
Hugely reworked Kirk's pcurlftp_file_sharing app.
Details: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=768235#768235
Recently, I also added lazy unmount (fusermount -z -u ...), so if a user is in the middle of copying from/to a share and close ROX-Filer's window, we can be sure that the share will be unmounted right after copying finished.
(attached)
___________
From other apps:
- defaults-chooser-0.8.9
- gfnrename-0.6 hacked
- peasyglue-1.7
- peasypdf-3.1
- peasyprint-2.6
___________
Compiled (and I don't like compiling) by myself, so verification is welcomed.
- unrar-5.10 (attached)
- gifsicle-1.83 (attached)
- mhwaveedit-1.4.23 (attached)

Oh, there's still that broken symlink in devx.sfs (I wonder how it got there?? ):
/root/.config/rox.sourceforge.net/OpenWith/application_x-cd-image/Burn with pBurn

55-cups.rules patch is already applied on the Slacko 5.9.1.
# ls -l /dev/usb/lp0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root lp 180, 0 Jun 18 06:57 /dev/usb/lp0
# /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb
direct usb://EPSON/EP-704A "EPSON EP-704A" "EPSON EP-704A" "MFG:EPSON;CMD:ESCPL2,BDC,D4,D4PX,ESCPR2;MDL:EP-704A;CLS:PRINTER;DES:EPSON EP-704A;CID:EpsonRGB;FID:FXN,DPN,WFN,ETN,AFN,DAN;" ""
I edited /etc/cups/cupsd.conf to get more debugging info:
# Log general information in error_log - change "info" to "debug" for
# troubleshooting...
LogLevel debug
I followed your suggestion:
1. Run CUPS. Under Add Printer, select AppSocket/JetDirect.
2. On the next screen, delete "socket" and type "parallel:/dev/usb/lp0"
Seems installed printer named 'lp'.
Tried printing test page from the web interface. Nothing the printer do.
Got /var/log/cups/error_log:
EDIT: Somewhat i mistook in CUPS error_log, but the Web interface says "Unable to open device file "/dev/usb/lp0": Permission denied"
Again checked the permission:
# ls -l /dev/usb/lp0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root lp 180, 0 Jun 18 06:57 /dev/usb/lp0

RE: Firefox as spot + Flash = crash
Aaa, it's an old problem that resurfaced again:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=712456#712456
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=712556#712556
Works fine with corrected permissions.
