lxterminal-0.1.11, lxtask-0.1.4 and gpicview-0.2.3
lxterminal-0.1.11-i486.pet
Download requires
vte-0.28.2-i486.pet to function.

i did not post any DEV DOC or NLS pets if you want them you can get them from my Repo

I've uploaded my build of kernel 3.2.27 to Smokey01, finally. Used 01micko's Dotconfig and it is non-pae.
This is the kernel I've been running myself.

I was able to compile a wacom driver for precise 5.2.60
with the 3.2.18 kernel.
...But it probably won't work for any other kernel.
Here's my masterpiece using mtpaint

I was able to get python and mypaint 1.0 to work in this version
of precise. I got the pets from Geoffrey
HERE
And I got Audacity 2.0.1 to work as well from
HERE

I fixed the pet package so that a restart of Xwindows isn't needed.
advanced bash guide by tux is added and a couple of small bugfixes.
I use this code in the pinstall script and it reconstructs the menu.
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
yaf-splash -bg_gradient false -close never -fontsize large -bg orange -fb black -text "Please wait for installation... " & PID=$!
/usr/sbin/fixmenus
JWMVER=`jwm -v|head -n1|cut -d ' ' -f2|cut -d - -f2`
if vercmp $JWMVER lt 574;then # change from 547 to 574.
jwm -restart
else
jwm -reload
fi
jwm -reload
kill $PID
exit 0

Looking forward to your Non-pae build

Hi oldyeller,
I'm looking forward to your non-pae build of precise. On the slight chance that I could somehow manage to substitute kernels, I tried to download James C's kernel, but the repo denied permission.
Pae versions of precise work great on my main computer, a quad core. But as I like to keep my other computers up to date, at least three of which can't run pae kernels, I prefer working with non-pae Puppies: customize the version on my quad core and then port it over.
Please see my criticism of creating pae builds here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 563#611563. How many computers are likely to have more than 4 gbs of RAM, but can't run 64-bits? Who are the anticipated users of a Puplet?

Even though these builds are announced in Derivates section...there seems to be people whom are confused about the naming of these Precise Puppy derivatives ie puplets. Barry Kauler posted about it in his blog.
It might be good idea to change the corresponding name of the puplet. Also Barry Kauler will continue to upload new version with fixes he has found from his announcement thread. I have pointed to oldyeller thread in his thread...so that all these great new compiled apps would be found. I think that scabz has done great work. Clementine is not the easiest to compile due to several dependencies and need for the gstreamer support which is not natively in Puppies.
Of course this naming suggestion is just my humble opinion and not anykind request. I would like to remind that the awakening of these builds was due to silence of development of Precise Puppy. All this work benefits the Precise Puppy...by interest, usage, feedback and bug reports.
Now Barry Kauler has announced that the focus is again with Precise Puppy and so...the naming should not be confusing.
I have spent my spare time with debian wheezy puplet, strictly unofficial woof build. The package structure and libs location change is the same as with Precise Pangolin and so...the work with Precise Puppy benefits almost straight me also. Also the woof fixes for Precise Puppy are almost workable for debian wheezy puplet...sometimes slight modifications are needed (when there is straight pointing to the Precise Puppy)
I had and have quite overwhelming problem with my touchpad movement precision and Precise Puppy. Nothing I have done has cured it. I posted about my problem early in the Precise Puppy thread. It looks like debian wheezy xorg behaves better...just like squeeze has done...that is one of the reasons I concentrate now to the debian wheezy puplet.

Precise beta3 vs. Precise 5.3
I'm a bit confused. I maintain a forum page in Spanish where langpack_es is offered along with versions of Puppy that are translatable with the language pack. Which should I post as oficial build, Precise beta3 or Precise 5.3?
Posted on 22 Aug 2012, 23:05 by BarryK
Re Precise 5.3
I have no control over what people post in the Forum.
I also noted the word "official" being used somewhere inappropriate in the Forum, don't recall exactly.
There is no official Precise 5.3.

Note to oldyeller:
Is there any way you can change the name of this distribution
from Precise?

Sorry, when I saw the version number and then read BarryK's blog, I automatically got confused, I must say I was very impulsive. And although my comment on the blog post was a simple request for information, now that I read it again it looks like the type of comments I usually begin by writing "Sorry", for the readers can't see any gestures and etc.
I agree about the renaming, it's as simple as changing to, for example, Precise OV, i.e. Oldyeller's Version. AND it's going to be one of the first puplets within the new internationalisation system, this means more users and testers.
