Lupu-515 Beta New Version DEC 18
Luci 237, Firefox, Iron
Luci 237 (Frugal install), 'nv' Nvidia driver : OK but
Firefox (4-Ob7) and Iron (7.0.520) crashed if I put on 'Fullscreen' else it's good.

Would that be fullscreen at youtube or where? Also, Would it matter if you used a different wm, jwm instead of openbox, etc?Firefox (4-Ob7) and Iron (7.0.520) crashed if I put on 'Fullscreen' else it's good.
I was OK with youtube fullscreen and Iron 7 and openbox, also OK with Firefoxs b7.
I do remember that the nv driver and fullscreen and flashplayer were trouble before. What about using the nvidia drivers from Quickpet: Drivers?
I was OK with fullscreen Medici TV also.
It might not be your imagination. I think chromium/Iron includes some of the ffmpeg codecs itself rather than using the ones it finds.Youtube is definitely better (fullscreen) than the other browsers, or is that my imagination again?

No problem here either with fullscreen youtube, Iron7 and openbox.
Also your test-site www.medici.tv didn't crash for me.
This is without installing any drivers on an nvidia ion machine.
# cat /usr/bin/synclientYeah but I can't get into flsynclient at all. Restart X doesn't make the error message stop.

There is a for loop :
Code: Select all
TOUCHPAD=""
for T in Elantech Alps Synaptics; do
grep -F -q "$T" /proc/bus/input/devices && TOUCHPAD="$T"
done
if [ "$TOUCHPAD" = "" ];then
pidof flsynclient &>/dev/null && killall flsynclient
errmsg $(gettext 'No Synaptics touchpad supported found.')
exit
fi
Code: Select all
# for T in Elantech Alps Synaptics; do grep -F -q "$T" /proc/bus/input/devices; done
#
-F, --fixed-strings PATTERN is a set of newline-separated fixed string
-q, --quiet, --silent suppress all normal output
This is what I got then :
Code: Select all
# for T in Elantech Alps Synaptics; do grep -F "$T" /proc/bus/input/devices; done
N: Name="AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint"
Code: Select all
pidof flsynclient &>/dev/null && killall flsynclient
MSG=$(printf "$(gettext '%s touchpad found.')" $TOUCHPAD)
MSG="$MSG $(gettext 'But you need to restart X-server to control it from synclient.')"
errmsg "$MSG"
exit
Code: Select all
[ "$DISPLAY" != "" ] || exec synclient.bin "$@"
And I dont know, why this works here ....
Another fresh frugal install of Luci-237 on my P4 test box.Working sound and internet as well as the correct resolution on initial boot. Installed Xorg_High and Firefox 4.0 b7.

LiveCD
Testing LIveCD for PUP237. Running on X2 with 2GB with 2LAN adapters. All works well, thus far.
Seems stable for the few selected things I do. Hope this helps other LiveCD users who have similar configurations.
- I booted with pfix=ram
- at desktop I set the time and numlock and exited to desktop
- I started QuickPET to install Nvidia driver "Lucid511_nvidia-260.19..."
- I went to Menu...Setup....Personalize Setting to rerun First...
- I selected nVidia icon now present, set my video
Seems stable for the few selected things I do. Hope this helps other LiveCD users who have similar configurations.
RealAudio Files
Testing Luci-237, pfix=ram, frugal.
I cannot play RealAudio ra files in gnome-mplayer. Neither by direct entry, nor by using the default browser plugin.
Test files:
http://www.lvbeethoven-music.com/Beetho ... RealAudio/
The problem seems to be with gnome-mplayer 0.9.9.2. The problem occurs in every recent Puppy I checked (QNOP, Quirky, etc.) that uses that version. In contrast, version 0.9.6 used in LUPU 5.1.1 plays RealAudo files just fine.

Did you try the Alsamixer? (Menu > Multimedia > Mediatools >)superattilius wrote:hi, I'm using on my ibm thinkpad x40 luci-237 and my mic with skype, audacity and mhwaveedit don' t work

There you can navigate to "MIC" using the keyboard arrow keys, then, using the "up-and-down-arrow-keys" adjust the volume.
Hope that helps

playdayz, I found a "flaw" in Woof: add "-libdrm-*-dbg" to xorg_base in the DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS. Some debugging symbols of various X drivers sneaked in the ISO. I'm working on a new experimental Puppy, I found more examples for unneeded packages and I can take a look at Luci's package list too.
Also, I have lots of templates for many packages, including xchat (with automatic connection to #puppylinux). I also PM'ed you the pcpufreq I use.
Indeed, a productive Puppy day

Re: FlSynclient
Thanks tubeguy.
Will you do one more favor?
Gzip the '/var/log/Xorg.0.log' and '/etc/X11/xorg.conf', and send it me with PM. or attach on a post.

Yes, I get the same result. Smplayer will not play them either--confirming what iguleder said. They will play rm but not these ra's. However, Pmusic will play them. Audacious in the PPM will play them also and probably VLC. Real audio was very interesting--still for low bandwidth I do not think there is any better codec. Sorry, but that is about the best I can do right now.I cannot play RealAudio ra files in gnome-mplayer. Neither by direct entry, nor by using the default browser plugin.

What is your video card and what video driver are you using?tubeguy wrote:One note on luci-237 video, I was getting an average 250 frames in glxgears with luci-232, it has jumped to 270 frames, so yet another improvement!
You should be able to get much better readings with the proper video driver setup.
I have an old Nvidia card with the proper Nvidia driver and get glxgears frame readings of above 5,000. With the proper setup, any video card should give glxgears frame readings of 1,200 or more.
