Ah ok. So far for me, videos are playing at the correct speed, using light-48 gcc232 in slackware 14.2, just using HTML5. For the first few seconds performance is unusually bad (as in it keeps stopping and the wheel keeps turning) but it re-cooperates after that. If I click on the wheel at the bottom, it says Speed as Normal. The videos seem "wonky" though, like they're going faster and slower like a wave but trying to play at the right speed - haha. It's kind of weird and making me dizzy, the speed of loading everything seems off. I wonder what happens if you change Speed to 0.5? It's just the video that's too fast or the audio as well?rg66 wrote:As in displaying too fast like 2x speed. Light-47.0 and Firefox-45-2.0esr play them normally.

edit: light-46.0.en-US.linux-i686-gtk2 definitely loads things faster and more consistently than light-48 for me.
Just tested on my desktop - other than the very start of playing a video as described by @SailorEnceladus- all seems OK afterwards - normal speed and video and audio in synch....could be hardware related?rg66 wrote:Peebee, I've had someone post that light-48.0 is playing youtube videos at a faster speed, I can confirm this on X-Slacko and X-Tahr.

@PeeBee, thanks for sharing your contributions. Very refined.
You have been helpful providing ISOs. And I understand the benefit of the Deltas. For maintenance management,
You have been helpful providing ISOs. And I understand the benefit of the Deltas. For maintenance management,
- is it your view that the systems will routinely recieve its updates via Delta files?
- And, secondly is there a Menu entry which checks for, downloads, checksums and builds a new ISO locally?
Re: Booting Error after Installation on Asus EeePC 901
Hi PeeBee,
As suggested, I downloaded and tried installing latest LxPupSc-16.08.2.
It is giving hanging at "Please wait, copying Puppy files to sda1" - the partition where I intended to install.
Any pointers for next ?
Regards,
Prasad.

No question, Firefox Light Browser is the culprit for the erratic youtube videos (and for others that may have noticed- Audio online files literly get eaten-alive)
Installing the chromium_52.0.2743.116+pepper_22.0.0.20.sfs browser from the forums 'Additional Software (PET's, n' stuff) = Browsers and Internet - Will eliminate those problems!
Nice program so far peebee!!!

Re: Booting Error after Installation on Asus EeePC 901
Hello,
None of the 16.08.2 ISOs are working.
I want to have Universal FULL installation. Of course Frugal also NOT successful.
Which "STABLE" OLDER version should I try first - where I can have one successful FULL, HDD Rebootable Installation?
Even when I check the md5sum - I am having the Trouble.FYI.
Please suggest!!
thanks in advance

It's difficult to give you advice - the problems you are having might indicate that you have hardware problems? Are you sure the pc is working correctly?
While full installs are sort of supported in Puppy, they are not the "way to go" as a frugal install with a save folder works just like a full install but with many other advantages.
It is possible that the full install utilities you are using do not understand the LxPupSc iso contents - particularly the extra adrv and fdrv sfs's - maybe the fdrv isn't getting loaded so essential firmware is missing?
Please only use frugal installs with LxPupSc and make sure that all of the following files are copied across to your boot folder:
initrd.gz
vmlinuz
puppy*.sfs
zdrv*.sfs
adrv*.sfs
fdrv*.sfs
The ydrv*.sfs is only needed if you have problematic display hardware that needs xorg to be downgraded to an earlier version.
Please also remember that LxPupSc is an "experimental" system - please don't use it at all if you are seeking stability - LxPup-16.07.1 based on Slackware 14.1 may be more suitable for you??

A new thought
To peebee,
A request as you're clever,
Please could you compile a safe simplest distro possible to suit
the bulk of of the general public who don't know linux at all,
say a modern version of the old Linux 501 just having a
Firefox browser only, no bells and whistles - that's it.
Many thanks, regards.

LxPupSc-16.09.2
Interim delta making LxPupSc-16.09.2 from 16.09.1 is available. This is a 'testing' branch of woof-ce build - I won't be updating the 'rationalise' branch build for a while.
Continues the process of changing over to 01micko's slacko-14.2 petbuilds...meaning that old versions of libjpeg and libpng are no longer in the build.
In particular, gparted is now the latest version instead of the very old version in 16.09.1 (!!) and zarfy is included.
@Billtoo - as far as I can see PPM is now showing the correct set of dependencies - see screenie - perhaps you can try your huge kpat download again? Thanks. (but only have slackware-14.2 repository enabled)

Quietly testing and using... 16.09.1 full iso downloaded, md5sum ok, 16.08.2 frugal install on core 2 duo updated and run until 16.09.2 delta available today. That delta applied, md5sum of generated iso checked, savefile cleaned (particularly .packages related material) and updated to 16.09.2. Running fine, glxgears FPS at 1620, good for this laptop. Using my old Opera 12.16 with Light 48.0 as fallback. Gparted run on an external USB drive, fat32 and ext2. Seems a bit snappier but that's subjective. PWF 4.1 WPA2 connection on iwlwifi hardware as usual for me.

Re: LxPupSc - Woof-CE, Slackware-14.2, LXDE experiment
I've seen that also, where it tries to grab the same library from two repositories. I think if it finds the same library in two places it always downloads both, instead of just picking the highest version. Not sure if this also happens in classic mode or just PPM2.mavrothal wrote:Billtoo wrote: PPM takes a long time to install applications, for kpat it downloaded

I may have been too parochial in only providing a uk site for ppm downloads....
Could you try:
1. deleting /root/.packages/Packages-slackware-current-official
2. replacing /root/.packages/DISTRO_COMPAT_REPOS with the attached after removing false .gz

made the changes you suggested.
Doing that eliminated the duplicate downloads, also cut the time to get
kpat working to 28 minutes.
