Could you upgrade to quick launch 2.8 because it
now has the time in the window?
This might be useful for people with 800x600 screens.

Also some suggestions...

1)Put less icons in bottom panel so that
the time (digital) can be displayed. Here's what it would look like

2) Put the Rox desktop icon in the upper left of the screen
to be consistent with Barry Kauler

3) Rox should open the /root folder when the desktop icon
is clicked, I think this can be done by changing the
desktop file

or else change the description of the desktop icon

Don570. Thank you of your suggestions. They are all useful. I will implement them.
I will check your suggestion to Shinobar.

i'm very like the progress of dpup exprimo, and now i use every kernel on exprimo.
but i have a problem when i go to /proc, rox got hang.
usually i press ctrl+alt+backspace and startx again.
how should i do to repair that?
thanks.
keep better

If I remember right, the problem only occurs in ROX-Filer if you have thumnails enabled. You can try using the binary from Lucid; that worked for me. Or you can install a second file manager...Thunar browses the /proc without issues.

Hi Pemasu,

pemasu wrote:I have removed the overwriting - preinstalled bluetooth files from bluetooth-0.5.pet. Jakfish or someone with bluetooth connection testing possibility could test the reloaded bluetooth-0.5.pet. It is now of course slimmer.

This bluetooth-0.5.pet works OOTB ! Got the tray applet once installed

The device here (ie mobile phone) is recognized upon «Setup New Device» use
Here have only added the following to allow bi-directional data exchanges between the phone and PC:
1. gnome-user-share_2.30.0-0ubuntu2_i386.deb
all needed dependencies ans scripts seem to be present in this Exprimo flavour.
http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/poo ... 2_i386.deb
2 edit /root/.xinitrc the code shown hereunder in line 171 to start dbus-uuidgen (in any case before the line #exec $CURRENTUM)

Code: Select all

171 dbus-uuidgen --ensure &   # <------TO BE ADDED
172
173 #exec $CURRENTWM
174 #v2.11 GuestToo suggested this improvement

NEED TO PLUG IN (yes

....that's trivial, but...!) the BT adapter and REBOOT TO START BT. And to set the phone and PC as «visible» to get both each other recognized.
The «device-up» and «device-down» mounting/unmounting line commands here are working (could not use them till now, on other existing bluetooths pets or other archives).

Works nice ! Again many thanks for it !

Further tested: other Puppies (Slacko, Lupu-528): the bi-directionnal exchange woks nice, and requires more dependencies than here on Exprimo ... as also more grey hair and many coffee cups drinking.
Here in Exprimo only one extra gnome-share archive is needed.

ere was trying to upload lot of pictures from a Samsung GT-E2370 phone to my PC using a 7.99 euros « König Electronic CMP-Bluekey27 Bluetooth 2.0 USB Adapter » since about 2 months ! (The vendor then told me «the USB link chord was no longer available - just buy this BT adapter that moreover is cheaper ! No problem if you run Linux !».Here could not get the on-business-card-format-CD-delivered-MSWindows driver + application working on WinXP - also reported on user blogs ...! )

Hope this could help ! Have fun !
Charlie

I recently tried the BootFlash install to USB app, which removed the formatting and then failed. I tried it a few times after restoring formatting, and it was consistent.

I recall that we upgraded to 5x14 to solve some problems.

How hard will it be to upgrade the kernel in 5x14 to 3x?

We need it for video hardware (Hauppauge and SiliconDust) and MythTV.

Thanks!

When I tested monkey find 1.7 with
Exprimo it worked better with foreign characters
than any other distribution.

How about creating a Debian Jessie version?

So one can use more up to date packages.

Hi Lassar !

I totally agree with you .This is a good proposal !

I was using Dpup Exprimo quite a while .Beautiful enlightenment E17 Desktop .I am a big fan of .

Fine Distro from Pemasu ... just a bit outdated ......but Pemasu left us .What a pity .Such a talented guy.

I hope someone will hear our pleas and make our dream come true !
Have a nice day .

But let me tell you what i did .

" Debian Dog Jessie " is a fucking cool Project .
The same for Mint Pup .

I installed "Debian Dog Jessie" to Usb stick and installed E17 via Synaptic .
Also worked with Mintpup (in a bit different manner) .

Wow ....!!! what cool "Dogs" .
If you have any questions ...let me know .

Cheers from
backi (also known as Enlightenment Lover ).

What about Devuan Jessie?

It's the non-SystemD fork of Debian Jessie.
