Here's a yad script that will backup the desktop icon positions and restore them, it's simple but will do the job for screen0.
Not sure how to go about multiple monitors as I've never used more than one, I assume the file's would be screen0....1...2...etc, the menu could be extended to include these.
I found that when the screen res is changed to play a game and has a mishap, it has a tendency to muck things up and this will fix that problem.
EDIT: this seems to be hit and miss, strange, you need to make sure that the option is selected it seems, the basic idea works, maybe someone can improve it.
EDIT: changed code, this now works
EDIT: I give up, its not working every time what I'm I doing wrong
EDIT: well it does work, just that the desktop can't be visible to use it, I'll sort something out.
EDIT: Got it to work using gtkdialog, yad won't play the game, this script looks a little weird as xfdesktop doesn't like to be rushed,
I tried this repeatedly shifting icons around and it works every time for me..
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh

Hello jemimah .
Uploaded Saluki 017 and saw that the Russian localization put more than in previous versions.
Came from you, please help those who they can. Here is an archive of more complete Russian locale.
Unpacked 2, 3 mb. Use it or not, you decide. Bad that many scripts you wrote without the support of gettext.
Why is removed Xdelta-difference-manager?
What is the reason to use Xfburn? He can not copy discs, or I do not know how.
Patiently waiting for release candidate for a full translation into their language.

You're not doing anything wrong. This happens when you use packages that weren't compiled in saluki, like virtual box and jre. In all probability, it will work fine anyway.einar wrote:while waiting for the checking for missing shared libs please wait.. check

What am i doing wrong ? as im scratching my head. I was asked to covert the sfs files to pet files under my first try. I was halted because of a emty save file. was was not asked to do this process again the secound / third time. Is it possible these sfs to pet files are corrupted ? The answer is likely yes I will try again tomorrow.
anyhow on to the silly question. what is the difference from performace mode and turbo mode ? Right know im using luki 17 in virtualbox and have no idea whats the difference
Other errors are my fault like libdb in python and libgetttestpo from wine are actually linked in from the devx. I will upload fixed packages for those soon.

Extra .pet's
Some .pet's (I don't believe are in the Saluki PPM ?) from other repos that I found to work in Saluki:
(1) Acrobat Reader-9.9.9-Lucid.pet (Nice for fillable forms such as 1040a and other fillable PDF forms.)
(2) ffconvert-1.2.pet (from Slacko repo at ibiblio - for converting video formats etc.)
(3) ffmpegV-0.8.4-i486-s.pet (from Slacko repo at ibiblio - this is needed to give a much wider range of converting options for the ffconvert-1.2.pet)
(4) firewallstate-2.1.pet (after restarting XWindows it places an indicator icon in bottom r/h tray - placing mouse on it tells status of firewall: on or off)
(5) Slideshow-1.0.pet (in the murga Puppy Linux forum - some editing required on the file 'Slideshow file' itself that gets placed in root-folder to direct it to your file containing Pictures, or wherever your pictures/graphics are in case you don't want to use the default-folder. not very hard to do.)

A lot depends on what is your intention with Saluki after the Saluki "release".
If this is the end of the road, I'll take 4.10!
If not, release now. It may give Saluki a wider exposure/use/feedback and make an even better Saluki 2 by the time Xfce4.10 is ready.

Xdelta was removed because it is a bit broken and because most people who aren't puppy veterans won't know what it is for. It's in the repo if you want it.
Xfburn is there because it is simple and has the right dependencies. I notice the icons are missing. I will fix that. If you need more features, install pburn from the repo.
I run Saluki Live from CD/DVD. I save PET and config changes via PUP's built-in save-session support back to the Live media at shutdown/reboot. This has been working for the most part.
Just completed the test for sleection and installation of JRE from SFS repo. It installs just fine and one can use it in the same running session.
But, when a reboot is schedule and a save-session is selected to the LIVE media, the JAVA support is nowhere to be found.
Problem:
I understand and have used PETs through-out the century. But, where is the documentation on suing a PUP with the new PPM suchn that anything that is installed in a session is survived over a save-session?
I don't have a problem following any directions that may be approriate.
And, can the PET repo contain a PET for JAVA, please?
The proper procedure applies to myself and all nuewbies unfaviliar with the approached added in the new movement of adding features and subsystems.
Thanks, in advance, for understanding and any help.

GB Keyboard
Hi All
@jermimah
Your first question has already been answered by Geoffery.
Re Pupdial, I think this is a red herring. I remember on the install of 017 I tried to be more systematic and did a shut down at the start to create the safe file. Previously I probably set up my modem and pupdial before creating the save file, hence the change of keyboard would not be an issue, it's only when you need things like * and # that it bites.
Cheers

This is in addition to my prior post.
This suggests that all of the support is included in the current system. Can I assume some level of accuracy when I see this message?
Thanks in advance
