To add a new shelf , menu - settings - shelves then "add" select setup then set contents or advanced . But you only have one ibar . You can add icons to the desktop but e17 has a bug with them .After you open an app or even close that app the icons stays selected untill you click on the desktop. Just COPY ( dont move) the .desktop file of the app you want from /usr/share/applications to root/desktop. You will need to double click on the icon to launch the app.

Thanks,
I had figured out adding another shelf but realized extra ibars only produce the identical ibar. Will try the tip for a few extra launchers and maybe look for more shelf gadgets if available.

Dude I already talked about this. The e compiz stuff needs xorg. Prit and I both insist that Macpup work with both xorg and xvesa. Sorry but I am not going there......

A new theme , Macpup-WB.edj , based on A-Ice-Blue. On my Macpup page now. Get the original here :

Only the background has been modified...

I am working with Ttuuxxx's 4.31.1 right now . I haven't plugged e17 into it yet.

E17 bug

#206 Post by omskates »

Not sure if this is the place to report a MacPup Opera bug but I've had this "error pop up" twice now, though nothing has crashed that I know of. The system pop up says,"Enlightenment Error This is very bad. Enlightenment SEGV2 This is not meant to happen and is likely a s-(?) a bug in Enlightenment or the libraries it relies on...." etc etc.

This occured on 2 seperate USB start ups copied into RAM while on E17 desktop.

Laptop is thinkpad X40 256mb RAM

Wish I could do something other than reporting it. :roll:

Update:
I tried to "restart" Enlightenment after some configuring because some changes hadn't taken effect and the desktop crashed. All the shelves were reduced to empty, I pulled the USB out, did not save pupfile.

Sometimes e17 can have problems ,remember they still consider it to be pre alpha even though it work really great for me. I have seen that error usually when it has a problem with a theme or a extra-module . That is the main reason why I only included a few of the extra modules and not the whole set cause the others where really buggy. Usually that error gives you 2 options like f1 and f2 .I just select the one that is continue and it usually runs fine. If you do exit e17 you can enter xwin jwm or xwin enlightenment_start at the prompt.

" I pulled the USB out, did not save pupfile." If you're running live off that usb that is very bad . linux will mess it up if you unplug a mounted drive.You will probably need to delete that pup-save and start over.

This is a alpha of the next Macpup. Its based on ttuuxxx's 4.31.1 and has an updated version of e17 .062. Firefox works great in it so the next Macpup will be a "Foxy". We will not be releasing this one cause of some of the 4.3 bugs.I intend to build the next version on the 4.3.1 bud fix version of puppy.

One of the cool new feature of this build of e17 is that it picks up all of the menu icons from puppy.

hello runtt 21, really admire the work of the creator of Puppy Linux and macpup. from Colombia I say that we're using far macpup and are eager to download and install the next version.
also wanted to ask when the next version could be the end of macpup foxy (even an approximate date)
thanks and excuse my English;)

I cant give you a date. I hope by the end of oct.

Barry should have 4.3.1 out soon and I hope they release a new version of e17 .I have .062 working but it is way behind the svn version .Most of the extra e17 stuff I have built for Macpup opera and opera061 wont run in .062 and the new versions of that stuff needs newer libs ( eina,ecore,evas...) than what .062 has.

I intend to continue the line of Foxy's in Macpup . It may be the end of the Opera line but not the Foxy line.

Small update, I have a working base for the next Macpup. I plugged the 431 service pack into ttuuxxx's 4.31.1 and that fixed the few issues I had had with it.I will plug my .062 build of e17 into it and start testing in the next few days.I am going to include my sakura terminal with it .
