(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Manual frugal update from +26 to +27 has been running just fine the past 3 days. Seriously, peebee, I'd submit more interesting reports if you'd just leave in more bugs...

on this upupbb 18.05 Running on an HP Pavilion DV6 Laptop, being an AMD Turion II Dual-Core Mobile 2.3 GHz Max Speed, 4 GB RAMemory, w/ ATi Mobility Radeon HD 4500 Series Graphics. Dual Booting w/ M$ Virus Magnet 7 Pro

chromium.sfs, Loaded But Not in the Menu. When Call chromium from LXTerminal I get...
/usr/lib/chromium/chromium: /lib/libm.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.29' not found (required by /usr/lib/chromium/libgtk-3.so.0)
# EXIT="Exit on timeout"
& then a small yellow window pops up w/ the Message, REMINDER: Any downloads will have SPOT ownership but any items in /root/spot/Downloads have been changed to ROOT ownership.

Also chromium_72.0.3626.81+pepper_32.0.0.142_lx_spot.sfs, I'm Not sure which 1 to Use ( ie. Load )???

Also vivaldi-stable_2.3.1440.48-1_i386.deb, which installs into the Menu, But won't actually launch!
When I Check its' Missing Dependencies w/ the Puppy Package Manager, it returns python:any python:any python:any
& Yet I Can See Plenty of Python Packages in the PPM!

Same Outcome also w/ Compiz which doesn't load... Missing Dependencies, python:any python:any python:any
Again, Wot's the Cure??? Please???

Also Perhaps Even More aLarming is the Wireless Continually Dropping Out & then ReConnecting!?! it's a RealtekRTL8188CU Wireless LAN 802.11n USB 2.0 Network Adapter. I tried using the rtl8812au_rtl8821au-4.3.20_k4.9.96.pet optional wifi driver, But alas No joy, No improvement, just the same Dropping Out & ReConnecting!?! This is w/ Frisbee, because Neither of Barrys SNS Tool Nor the Network Wizard works. Nb. this Behaviour doesn't occur w/ M$ Virus Magnet Windows!

Of course I've already spent Faa Too Long Researching & Trying 2 Fix these issues & My 9 year old Daughter is getting Real Tired of Slow Windows & Loves Compiz!

Please Help!

Thanks for the reports - showed a compatibility problem with the latest versions of GTK+3 as present in the .sfs

New versions of all browsers with fix have been uploaded.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/lxpup/ ... /browsers/

With an sfs you probably need to do a desktop restart to fix the menu.

Thanx 4 your Reply PB, altho I Beg your paadon, Where can I DL those Browsers from? & any suggestions about the Compiz & Wifi issues, Please & Thanx again.

Link added above.
Compiz is a dead project I believe - but if it requires Python you need to load the devx sfs...
wifi - suggest you post details of your problem in a thread where other RealtekRTL8188CU users might be able to help e.g. does it work correctly in any other pups?

Thanx again PB, 4 your Help & Support, Both Browsers aRe Working Well,

& the WiFi has Stablized since I Updated to +27 ( from +12 previously ) also just in case I also Loaded the Latest Linux Firmware sfs Package, altho I haven't been able 2 figure out how 2 put the eXtracted modules into the /lib/firmware location... but I'm not too concerned about that @ the mo' since it is Stable.

However, Now I can't find Where 2 Switch 2 the LXDE from JWM, it used 2 be quite Easy / intuitive?

& your comment about suggesting that Compiz is dead Surprized me, so I did an iNet Search & unless I've misunderstood it looks like there's a New Update 2Day!

There is no LXDE in UpupBB...........you are thinking about LxPupBionic......

I met this problem:
gcin: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by gcin)
Any suggestion? thanks.

Where did you get gcin from? Sounds like you have the wrong version for UPupBB............

https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/18.04/ubuntu-un ... 6.deb.html ??

gcin 2.8.8 met problem but gcin 2.8.6 is OK.

Thanks.

hi peebee,

not sure if this is fixed already, but was helping someone on irc to get vlc working

line 15 of /usr/local/petget/hacks-postinstall.sh needed changing from vlc-nox_*) to

Hi 666philb

That comes from Woof-CE rootfs-skeleton - Woof-CE change request #1337 raised....

Hello all
Have drivers for the rtl8812au_8821au chipset been merged in any kernel yet?

I have a TP-Link T4UH Wi-Fi adapter which uses that chipset.
Any help in getting connected with it would be greatly appreciated.

This may not be the appropriate section, but I place it here as I plan on switching to upupbb. iso and devx have been downloaded and I am ready for some hand-holding to compile, if necessary.

TIA

Not a kernel, just a rtl8812au_rtl8821au-4.3.20_k4.9.96.pet available in peebee's driver directory at sourceforge for kernel 4.9.96 stuff listed in this post

@perdido
Thanks for the link.

Thought I'd be able to ditch ndiswrapper, but alas ...sticks to me like glue.

Must be using a different kernel than 4.9.96?

Here are the sources I used for the 4.9.96 pet

I didn't keep my notes

Load devx and kernel headers
Open a terminal in the sources directory and run make
It just built in upupBB like that right now, maybe no notes needed.

Have fun
