Installed a number of pets and no problems yet.

There is something about Flsynclient on Barry's blog.DaveS wrote:Agreed. And it works the best yet. I actually deleted my 'fall back' Mint today. Never use it nowplaydayz wrote:You know, we have had a report that synaptics only worked when automatically configured not when configured with CCE. As far as I am concerned it is all one system and we have two methods of configuring--if one does not work correctly then there is a chance the other will. It sounds like you are able to configure your hardware and use Lucid Puppy. Good deal.Tried to set Flsynclient..... Synaptics not found!
Re-booted creating save file. Tried Flsynclient again... Synaptics not found.
Deleted save file, re-booted using classic configuration system. All no problem INCLUDING successful Synaptics install.

I made a wrapper script which can be a solution.
Try this.

Hmmm....
Reboot, use classic configuration procedure, all fine.
I believe that you are looking for the collection of PPD files. Strictly speaking, these are not printer drivers.Karl Godt wrote:Still can't find the driver database for cups 1.4.3
thanks for your interest. I like to add some information.ICPUG wrote: there are some features implemented in other init scripts that could be useful, such as these examples:.
Hey ICPUG, In general the design philosophy is too stay as close as possible to Woof. In a sense Lucid Puppy is a show piece for the Woof Puppy Builder. Also, the Woof code has been very well-tested and refined, which imho an "official" build of Puppy should be. Obviously, we don't follow Woof entirely in booting to the desktop--but you might be surprised at how few changes in the code that involves--three lines added to xorgwizard, the initial abbreviated xorgwizard on first boot (which Barry suggested btw), and the switcheroo between xorg-setup and xorgwizard on first boot. Some of our changes have already filtered back into Woof so one shouldn't think that no forward motion is taking place. We also added the Browser Chooser and Quickpet, etc., but these are simple programs that are added rather than modifications to the system code. Barry does incorporate modifications to the system code of Woof suggested by other people and they reach us that way also. Thanks.Query for Playdayz
Regarding the init script that executes on startup.
Is the Lucid design philosopy to take that which is provided via woof or could we tinker with it to provide a Lucid specific experience?
This worries me since there is a new 915resolution--can other Intel graphics users test please.Apparently not a problem for most, for me Luci222 fails often (unrecoverable black screen) on reboot or anything that involves restarting X, such as switching from jwm to icewm. Sure did make trying to test 915resolution a pain. Lucid 5.10 is good in this respect though not perfect. Only "intel 845" knows why ...
The PPD file is generated from the XML database that you have already discovered.Karl Godt wrote:So it's in the air ?CUPS generates the matching PPD file on the fly
