Regarding VirtualBox josejp2424 wrote:

You are using the kernel it brings. or you changed it

I used the kernel packaged with the operating system. I did not change anything.

I did boot into RAM and create a new save folder. I loaded the devx and kernel sources only and then installed virtualbox on a pristine system. I did not receive the kernel error this time. However, virtual box does not run as intended on my system. It will not recognize 64 bit operating systems and will attempt to start 32 nopae only.

I reproduced the same results in Q4OS 3.8 (Buster). My hardware is not able to run this application. My apologies for taking up your time with this one.

Thank you TiredPup . I'm going to keep testing on another machine.

Hi josejp2424,

Thanks for all your work.

Thanks in advance.

Silly me.
Didn't occur to me that redshift might not be installed. Will you include it in a future beta?

Hi jose,

I couldn't connect to my phone (LG G3) with Pupmtp.

I installed Pupmtp package form this link
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aq6eZD ... sp=sharing

and libmtp9 with PPM.

Now I can connect but I cannot delete files from the phone filesystem.

Should libmtp be included in the iso?

While loading through Flash drive, getting desktop. However, after installation of internal hard disk (full disk), no desktop available. while starting it goes to command prompt show message that you may try xorgwizard or xin jwm, etc. How to boot into desktop and make use of Dpupbuster.

.

That usually happens when the system closes badly.
Putting xwin starts well.

How to rectify the problem. How boot into proper desktop. XWIN OR XORGWIXARD in command line not solved.

Full installation in hd is not well supported as I know in puppy. What about the more useful and easy frugal install? Just copy the content of the iso on the hd ext3 formatted and run from the live session grub4dos config to boot sda1. Choose to save in a savefolder and you are done.

I have created a menu entry in refind in EasyOs (fat 32 separate Partition) 640 mb and loading DpupBuster. See I a just layman user only. Only my passion doing something through train and error method. I don't know how to load frugal method. Anyway I will frugal also.

Could it be the hardware? . I really don't know.
but in my case virtualbox is working.
it would be necessary to see if some user the same thing happens to him.

Same problem here. It seems to be a Virtualbox recurring bug. I had the same problem with VBox 6.0.12 yesterday while trying LxPupSc64 but back then, being in a hurry, I thought (wrongly) LxPupSc64 was the culprit so I ditched it with no second thoughts

Luckily I found later this superb pup and also a Virtualbox .pet so I thought "Great! Problem solved!" but no, it wasn't

Searching for a solution, it seems VBox 6.0.4 worked for some people with this issue. I'll give it a try in a few moments and we'll see :crossfingers:

EDIT: I guess I was asleep or something the first time I installed the Virtualbox pet because after make sure devx and headers.sfs were loaded, I reinstalled and it worked... sort of, since I could now start my virtual machine only after change my virtual netcard first (from bridged adapter to NAT).

Nonetheless, I did try version 6.0.12 again to no avail. Same problem. Finally I tried 6.0.4 and after some complaining about a problem regarding group "vboxusers", it worked perfectly (with the bridged adapter selected again) after creating that group and run /sbin/vboxconfig once more. Hope this helps.

I really thank you for the tests.. 01101001b

it's an update of DPupBuster-7.9.0.2..

thanks nilsonmorales for the wallapers he did

For those who use the previous version, it is no longer compatible with this one because the location of the libraries has changed. so the devx will not work either.


.

Use PULSEAUDIO.
RETROVOL was replaced by PASYTRAY.
Pulseaudio is more compatible, many programs use it (skype, firefox, Simplescreen recorder).
Note that pulseaudio is only working as root. It is not working as SPOT..



Pkg - CLI package manager ( Thank you sc0ttman).
I love this program, and it works great. You can use apt-get or apt to install programs.
Also Pkg as the PPM, they use only Debian Buster repo.



this dpupbuster 32 is the same as dpupbuster 64.
It has all the same programs, except that it doesn't bring mpaint.

Gimp 2.4 compiled by ,ttuuxxx.



For test Dpupbuster 32.

Hi josejp2424! You're welcome!

By the way, I've seen (in sourceforge) you have compiled Nvidia drivers for 340 and 410 for dpupbuster 64 (4.19.23) Any chance you can do the same for 304? Because I'm out of luck in that matter

Regardless you can or not, thanks in advance!
