Fatdog64-600 alpha2
Hi Jim
gtkdialog is at version 0.7.20 in FatDog so the newer mods I have made to jwm-config won't work. It's up to kirk and jamesbond whether they update gtkdialog, so for now I'll leave it alone.

Jemimah developed a 2 patches for glib .. adds support for help with apps like geany, abiword and gnumeric and also adds the currently mounted drives to any gtk filebrowser widget. Just FYI, patch HERE
Cheers

Mick, thanks for the info. 600a2 actually (or finally! depending on how you see it) has gtkdialog4 there (0.8.0), but it is not the default. Default is still gtkdialog3 as many scripts in Fatdog have not been updated for gtkdialog4. Before I dig in and look around, just one question: is it non-root clean? (ie doesn't try to write to /root (use $HOME instead), and don't assume it can overwrite stuff in /etc /var etc (only in $HOME or /tmp)?01micko wrote:Hi Jim

Thanks, I have been wondering where to find these patches. I have plans to do the first one when GTK is re-compiled; I wouldn't be able to find the 2nd one myself ... but I'll leave it to kirk whether he wants to rebuild GTKJemimah developed a 2 patches for glib .. adds support for help with apps like geany, abiword and gnumeric and also adds the currently mounted drives to any gtk filebrowser widget.

Openbox + Icewm - Can't get one or the other but this is okay too
Edit: Make that Icewm + Lxpanel - too much fun today!

Oh well!
Here (attached) is an updated jwm-config for FatDog. This is for testing, contains no binaries, no hard coding to /root, only hard coding is the original stuff (thought-journey and plinej) where puppy believed it wanted to be root forever! (Nice notion but some are deterred.)
The pet adds a couple of extra themes and changes the menu button a little.
Cheers!

Flash Player
I downloaded install_flash_player_11_linux.x86_64,tar,gz but can't get flash to work. I placed libflashplayer.so in /usr/lib64, is that correct? I believe that everything that goes in the /usr/ directory is correct.
Thanks,
Jim

Thanks for keeping the JWM desktop.
Mick's jwmconfig2-120529-fatdog.pet works good. Thanks Mick. It will be a fine addition. I used it to add a couple of radky's fine little applications to the panel. PupControl and PupShutdown.
Cheers,
Jim
Thank you for the pet and for testing it. I will put this pet into main sfs - experimental beats non-working versions
cheers!

I hacked Nathan's wallpaper setter awhile ago to work with gtkdialog4, it almost worked perfectly with FatDog ootb, had to add a default tag to the <chooser> widget so it would default to /usr/share/backgrounds.
While on images, gimp is very nice to have, but when you want to just view a bunch of images in a directory it's a bit of a pain . Can you link the run action for images_jpg to the defaultimageviewer please? Or not .EDIT: Ahhh... I see it was done yesterday
Made a wallpaper too, gzipped to preserve.
Cheers
PS: kirk, who made the fatdog logo? It's great work!

SFS files!!! Make SFS files!!! They don`t take up Save file space...
Hi Kirk and jamesbond; I wondered if FatDog was made from Ubuntu Lucid?
I`m looking for a stripped down bare-bones from Ubuntu Lucid for compatibility with Ubuntu`s file repository.
Good for making SFS files! And also a distro. that doesn`t need remastering to remove and "include" apps.
64 bit is the way to go anymore, I applaud dumping Linux`s legacy cruft ( Lots...).

sunburnt, have a look at what jemimah has done with Saluki. Custom Builder is great.
I would like to see something like this in all Puppies.

A small battle for me to get sound working.
My mobo sound is fried. I have a behringer usb device which usually shows up, uses the snd_usb_audio module which wouldn't load. I found the clue in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf and removed the line:
options snd-usb-audio index=-2alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
as there is another line further up:
options snd-usb-audio index=-2
Deleted /etc/asound.conf, rebooted, and card was found by the Multiple-card-wizard, rebooted, all good
BTW, lspci and lsusb only output vendorID:productID, though I notice the databases are there. Maybe need new pci-utils/usb-utils?

Use of Remaster tool
Thank @JamesBondjamesbond wrote:Sorry I don't get what you mean - so did the remaster tool work or didn't work for you?gcmartin wrote:FATDOG Remaster tool is rather expressive and straight forward.
Ran the remaster tool. It created a "pristine" system that did NOT have the session changes made. Local changes thus far do NOT exist in Remaster
EDIT: I just tested - all my changes are saved in the remaster. What I should probably do is to add options to edit isolinux.cfg before the remaster ISO is created. ...
To clarify:
- Booted a Pristine FATDOG6.0a2 from multi-session DVD.
- Installed several PETs via PPM
- Copied several personal programs to /root/my-applications/bin
- Tested system to insure the several added components worked
- Satisfied, I wanted to test the new Remaster tool provided
- The Remaster tool followed thru to completion.
- But, when the ISO when booted, it boots Pristine with none of the changes
Note: This system was never re-booted prior to running remaster tool.
Questions - What can I do to help?
- Is there a step missing?
- Should I capture screens post this for review?
- Should I post the ISO somewhere where it can be reviewed?
- Should I wait for next release?
Thanks Mick, can you roughly tell me the difference? So that I can decide whether this will go to the main iso or to the pet repo. The wallpaper setter in 600a2 is the same one from 500 days, perhaps the same one back to puppy4 days (except for the addition of the <default> line - apparently something changes in GTK?)01micko wrote:I hacked Nathan's wallpaper setter awhile ago to work with gtkdialog4, it almost worked perfectly with FatDog ootb, had to add a default tag to the <chooser> widget so it would default to /usr/share/backgrounds.

Let me see if I can get your wallpaper to work somewhere ... hmm....Made a wallpaper too, gzipped to preserve.
I remember the logo came from one of the forum members, though I browsed the entire 70 pages of "puppy wallpapers" thread but can't find it. I haven't browsed the 135 pages of "my puppy is more gorgeous than yours" ...PS: kirk, who made the fatdog logo? It's great work!

This line is obviously wrong, it should be01micko wrote:A small battle for me to get sound working.

options snd-usb-audio index=-2alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
Code: Select all
options snd-usb-audio index=-2
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
This tells snd-usb-audio to not to use index 0 (=default sound device) but use index from 1 onwards.as there is another line further up:
options snd-usb-audio index=-2
All in all, the above should not prevent your usb device from working - it only tells your behringer not to be the default soundcard. Then you could use the multiple soundcard wizard for that. Do you mind trying with no savefile whether that is the case?
/etc/asound.conf should not exist by default, it only exists if you use multiple soundcard wizard or alsa-equaliser before. Note that alsa-equal and multiple soundcard wizard are mutually exclusiveDeleted /etc/asound.conf, rebooted, and card was found by the Multiple-card-wizard, rebooted, all good
We don't allow usb device to be the default sound device because some usb device only implements subset of audio functions (e.g my usb midi controller cannot play digital audio); if the usb device accidentally overtake the motherboard audio, there will be no sound coming from the usb device.
But for your case, you can make the behringer to be the default sound card by reversing the role in alsa.conf:
options snd-hda-intel index=-2
options snd-usb-audio index=0
