X thinks the monitor is still turned on, in my case. Question was if the display visibly turns off or not. Does it? X will tell you that the display is still "connected" and "enabled", and that's not a contradiction. Where did you find what X "thinks"? Don't know if th...

t turns off and disables the internal display on lid close Third attempt: Marv 's Fujitsus (and my Fujitsu, Acer, HP and Lenovo) all turn off the internal display without the need for any software. I read that this is done via magnets in the display frame. Or are you saying that this mechanism does...

@MochiMoppel The current code should address your concerns I tried my best to answer all your questions. In return it would have been nice to have my own questions answered here in the forum. This is what the forum is for. One of my questions was What is the benefit of running something like xrandr...

geo_c I think I now understand your problem. Your original code is fine, however when the user, after the ' Enter text to insert' prompt, just pushed the Enter key, without entering any other text, the INSERTTEXT variable remains empty, And when this variable remains empty, then sed just sees a <nu...

adds a slash and space to the beginning of all inserted lines:

...because that's what you instructed sed to do.

Try

Code: Select all

sed -i "${LINENUM}i${INSERTTEXT}" ${TASKS_DIR}"${*}"

Alright, I asked around and a xbindkeys expert gave me this tip: You have to prevent xbindkeys to grab the key before replaying the mouse click. Something like this should do the trick : "pkill xbindkeys; sleep 0.1; xdotool click 1; play sound.mp3 & xbindkeys" b:1 This is a little bit...

As for the changes in dc:
I suggest to replace this tool with something more "stable", to make the code backward compatible, e.g. with bc (provided the syntax hasn't changed as well).
Even better - and faster - would be to use POSIX compatible shell arithmetic and substitution.

This one from my repo probably, (gtk3 supported version .deb package from rcrsn51), perhaps someone can make it "Puppy-compatible" :?: https://github.com/doglinux/book-worm/raw/master/amd64/peasypdf-gtk3_5.0_all.deb Maybe the same person who made it Puppy-incompatible ;) ? Xdialog3 .. no ...

Solved for me in LibreWolff (Menu -> Settings -> LibreWolf -> uncheck "Enable ResistFingerprinting")

I did try to add the picture as an attachment (jpg) but it does not display correctly.

This problem?

MochiMoppel

My tax office requires all attachments to be in PDF format. I now have various image files in PNG format which I want to convert. The challenge: The resulting PDFs should have exactly the same dimensions as the source files. Normally PDF printing/converting offers to select a page size, e.g. A4 or l...

The question is not connected or not but enabled or not. I made it the question.because it seems to me that this is the only question that a user and the code can reliably answer. "Enabled" is very ambiguous. One example, tested on a netbook (HP Mini 210) and a notebook (Acer Aspire ONE 7...

https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/pull/4278 I hope the logic is correct, this will need some testing :) Maybe something like this, before or after the initial case "$DISABLE_SUSPEND" ... esac command: # Do not suspend if external monitor connected [ $(xrandr -q | grep -c ' con...

I was not aware that it does not work in F96-CE_4 . I didn't have a computer that has a lid to close at the time the distro was being developed. My current PC doesn't have a lid either and on netbooks I usually have an external monitor attached where I keep the lid open to improve cooling. I never ...

I don't use BookwormPup64 ..but it might be similar to other puppies. I use Fossapup64 and on this system - and all the previous puppies I've used - there has been a file called 00000080 in the directory /etc/acpi/LID On previous puppies it has been this file which controls what happens when the LI...

wizard I went through your linked posts and I noticed, that the most simple solution (click on a drive icon to mount) was dismissed by a user who doesn't use drive icons. However if I understand dellus correctly he uses the drive icons to mount. The only annoyance is the automatic opening of a ROX ...

@MochiMoppel Is this the keyboard you are referring to? .... Mind you it did take up a lot of space. No.Your photo shows the "Elite", the successor that had a different key layout, which made it 5 cm less wide than the original model. This is mine: NaturalKeyboard.jpg It also comes with a...

Over the years I used various PCs, quite a number of storage devices and all kinds of mice and trackballs. Sooner or later they all ended up as garbage. With one exception: my keyboard. Yesterday I noticed that it is its 30th birthday. A Microsoft Natural Keyboard, manufactured 1994, "MICROSOFT...

i realize i just need globicons in /root/.config/rox.sourceforge.net/ROX-Filer/globicons so my question to you "if you know the anser" is why is there 2 globicons in different places ? Because Puppy devs love to ride dead horses? :lol: Seriously, I don't know. ROX deprecated the /root/Cho...

But what about the rox-filer itself? It's my favorite file manager and it worked well until this forum thread. Now I've opened it, selected a file, right-clicked another one, and - déjà vu! - got the context menu for the first. You understand the gtk mechanics far better than me. Do you have any th...

To close an already opened app it seems like CTRL + Q usually works for most apps I have tried, but it's not consistent. For example I couldn't find a key combination yet that would close MPV.

Alt+F4 (almost) always works.

Hello all while i was running LunarPup and HunPup i notice that the file globicons in /root/Choices/ROX-filer/globicons and /root/.config/rox.sourceforce.net/ROX-filer/globicons have some wrong info about the files and paths so i decide to make a globicons generate to fix that issue Firstly: Nice a...

I suspect Moonchild has just got a bug here,

Methinks @atmega is talking about a failing ytd-app, i.e. a Youtube dowloader. This would have nothing to do with Pale Moon, right?

Not a joke anymore: Lines for Puppy 4.x Looking back at the original post, this was the challenge: " What we need for a horizontal line is a window with a colored background, no text, no decoration, 1px high and as wide as the screen. " We now know what does not work: urxvt, yad and step ...
