Thanks to all,

Will give it a try and let everyone know.

Tired of banging my head against the wall here...

I cant get this to work under Slacko 5.6.

Any suggestions?

Thank you

I kept coming back to this problem and finally found a solution. I tried about 3 or 4 different vnc packages and the only one that works for me is the x11vnc_server-0.9.4B.pet from the following thread. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=27424 I installed the package and ran the firewa...

Just to piggy-back on this thread. I'm having problems getting VCN server to work on Slacko. Pet seems to load ok and htop shows it up and running but I just can't make a connection. I have VCN running on a DSL machine and have no problem with it. I used this thread and am trying to use the puppy5 p...

Sorry the .pet didn't work for me...

The .pet installed the package to a directory /google-chrome 24.0.1312.57 and not to /etc, /opt. and /usr.

Slacko 5.3.3

Thank you for the link.

does libgoocanvas need compiling, its part of gtk?

http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/libgoocanvas-dev

I downloaded and installed, no compiling and no problem.

I'll edit the original post to include it.

I used this thread to help me make this work so thought I'd post here here too.. It's also in the Programming section. I've set this up on a couple of machines now and thought I'd pass it along... It may not be the most up to date libraries and such, but it works. Installing Python: Using Puppy Pack...

Do you remember to direct links to the qt4 pet files?

Googling through this forum always gives me a headache...

(Been looking for awhile now....)

THANK YOU!

That was it - examples are up and running, extremely cool.

Coding questions to follow, I'm sure...

Continuing saga, I've downloaded BASH4, compiled and have it up and running: # bash --version GNU bash, version 4.1.0(1)-release (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

I hope it is OK to start a new thread dealing with "installing and setting up" BaCon, HUG, GLADE, and GLUT. The original thread has much more about development and use and I'm just not there yet. Here is the info from my eee PC 900: Linux puppypc 2.6.35.7 (puppeee 4.4 Beta 5) BaCon version...

Ok, Finally able to duplicate the problem, and it's a weird one. I'm using a fresh full install of Puppeee 4.4 beta 2. Change your theme to Brushed. Open Chrome and Geany and test the menus work normally. Open pmenu and select a program from either list so the icon shows. While pmenu is still open t...

Downloaded a fresh copy of 4.4 beta 1 and put in on my SD card.

Running Rox as my desktop and Icewm as my windows manager.

Still can't recreate the problem.

If we can't figure it out, I'll revert back to 2.0.1 version without the icons, add the Exec data and develop from there.

Here are two screen shots.

Is this what we are talking about?

Ok, After further research I cannot recreate the problem. I'm switching between the Brushed and Clearlooks themes using CHThemes. Brushed looks perfect. Clearlooks has white highlight text and is hard to read when you use the right click menus. (That is what I thought the problem was.) This is a pro...

jemimah,

Ah, found the issue - seems to happen to the right click menus.

Looking to see if zigbert's code causes the same problem?

Just wondering if it's a gtk-theme-switch problem or if I implemented his technique incorrectly.

Thanks,

Jeff

Hum,

That's not good, trying to recreate it...
