Toni; Yes I noticed that, the desktop files in Puppy have the VT`s command line "rxvt -e".
I thought about doing this, but I`m guessing that a wrapper script is supposed to handle it.
The other thing is the poor support ( writing ) of "needs=" and "Terminal=".
Like many of the key words, most people don`t know how they are to be used.
The desktop key word "Type=" is mandatory, but many desktop files do not have it.
# And yes, all references to the VT should be "default_virtual-terminal".
# As with executing any of the apps that have the "default_xxxx" links ( except main menu ).
I`ll change debmenu2desktop.convert to make it add code to Exec= lines for needs="text".
Code: Select all
Exec=default_virtual-terminal -e ($exec)
# Devx file, downloaded it. I`ll test and post addition suggestions for the next one.
# NOTE: Will there be 2 Devx files, standard and Porteus.? OR will your Devx work on both?
William; Sorry to hear about your snafu, but it`ll turn out to be a good education I`m sure...
I`d like to see a menu item to install DebianDog to USB HD/Flash and SD, MMC media.
All levels of media preparation and install:
1) Clear media, partition and format ( optional ). Make partitions: boot, data, and swap.
If media is to be used with WinBlows, then first partition should be vFAT or NTFS.
Other wise Weeners won`t see the drive unless it has Linux partition drivers installed.
The boot partition should be ext2 or ext3 whether it`s the first partition or not.
2) Copy DebianDog and live-rw files to boot partition, do post setup ( grub boot, etc...).
