Slacko 5.5 Final
network_tray
This is for testing before I do the next build, (I finally have a little time to do one!)

It is a rewrite of rerwin's version for frisbee integration.
You lose the ability to change themes though, but the icon theme is close to jemimah's frisbee original, except they are in svg format.
Also, I fixed a bug with my IP address showing in the tooltip. It now shows correctly if you connect over ppp. (direct modem). The icon *should change to a mobile phone if you are connected by a mobile phone or 3g modem or to an old phone if connected by analog modem. This is taken care of by a script by rerwin. If connected by ethernet you get blinking screens or by wireless you get the antenna.
This is designed to be NooB friendly
Reports please.

no adverse behavior to report. Used a permanent system to download PET to USB.01micko wrote:This is for testing before .. This is designed to be NooB friendly ... Reports please.
Booted pristine, set hostname in FirstRUN, installed PET from USB, setup Frisbee. Nothing abnormal has occurred. All information is current and accurate. And IP is stable without issues.
Is this the kind of report you wanted?

O1micko,
An example of a problem that seems to be common with USB flash drive installs. Not finding the Puppy main sfs file on bootup. I am seeing reports of this, more and more, dealing with Slacko and Precise.
As rcrsn51 points out.

http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=84601This may be a timing issue. Other distros, like Fatdog, have a "waitusb" option to handle the problem.
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

Works fine for me on wifi - icons are nice and familiar from Frisbee - and good quality from svg.
Tested on both Slacko 5.4.1beta and Precise 5.5beta with Rerwin's latest Frisbee - all good - it could lose the -s suffix as its not specific to Slacko?

Thanks guys for network_tray reports
There is a bug though if you have 2 wired network interfaces..particularly noticeable if you are connected to the second one, this would have been in the original by Barry (and inherited by rerwin's) anyway. Also, there is a bug if you have a ppp (any kind of modem) interface. though it's not as serious as the 2 eth interface bug. The fix should fix both. On the hunt.

I'll attach the htop and cmus pets that I made, also made pets of
fox-1.6.47-i686.pet and xfe-1.34-i686.pet but they are too large to attach.

hey micko
sorry for the delay
vattery works correctly with battery installed but reads 'segmentation fault' when no battery is present (on dock), tested puppy431, slacko 5.3.3, fatdog64-611 and lightouse64-511 and all cope ok with battery removed
without battery no display, "seg fault" shows in terminal

Ok, completely fresh install - spent hours installing lots of stuff, making (my usual) system customizations, and......all is ok!
The only problem I had is the same as Ally's, with powerapplet_tray (since 5.4.0.3), but the version fixed by Rodin.s works fine for me:

Thanks for power applet reports. I'm using the default woof version so I'll update it to rodin.s' version.
ally, can you test it?
Also, I have been informed of an issue with vicmz openbox+ pet in PPM. Looking into that.

powerapplet_tray does not run/display without battery (on dock) as older puppy version did (would show 'no batt' or similar)
powerapplet_tray has nicer icon spacing and mouseover than vattery
have also had a quick test of 5404 on an old IBM T21 and also eeepc 900, everything working so far
