Ah, I think it needs libsoup3 too.
I don't encounter problem because I already have libsoup3.
@smokey01 needs to update the dependency list.

smokey01 has a repository for Fatdog64 900 series. By default this repository is disabled, as at the time of release, it was empty. Smokey01 has since started to fill his repo. The first application is Homebank, and more will follow. To install Homebank and other applications from smokey01's repo, ...

A nonsense to call distro Puppy Linux when it is not Puppy Linux. Surely Puppy enthusiasts want actual Puppy Linux distros to continue to be developed in line with ever advancing Linux technology? (Emphasis mine). Which begs the perennial question: What is a "Puppy Linux" distro? What qua...

Posting this from FatdogArm beta5, using Seamonkey 2.33.1, running inside qemu, using this instruction , just for nostalgia purposes :mrgreen: Despite not very keen on ARM platform anymore, I remember FatdogArm fondly, because modern Fatdog64s (from 700 onwards) inherited so much from it. Many thin...

and now there is Asahi linux that maybe could provide a usable kernel for FatDog on Apple silicon (just for kicks) I just checked what Asahi Linux is all about. It seems to be an overarching project to get Linux running on Apple Silicon Macs, with promises that changes will be upstreamed / mainline...

On a side note, x86 emulation on ARM is painfully slow. Same way as emulating ARM on x86 is slow. In other words, emulation is always slow, except the CPU is designed from the ground-up to support such emulation. I remember FD having ARMv6/7 versions It was fun while it last. This year would have b...

Puppy's unique value comes from its layered structure (and the various persistency modes), the copy-to-RAM thing and preinstalled applications. This :thumbup: I couldn't say it better. Common folks don't use operating systems. They use __applications__ that runs on top of the operating system, e.g....

I think fatdoguser meant that nobody seems to post anything in the Fatdog forum for a while. The quietness can be interpreted in many ways, but the positive way to look at it is that everything is working as intended, so nothing to report / ask :) We do have package updates from to time but we don't...

The issue seems to be that the newer midori fails to download the needed DRM plugins. If you've previously used the older midori, those plugins have already been downloaded and they would continue to work with the newer midori. So I agree with fredx181 , I think using a copy of a "backup" ...

To clarify: I'm not disappointed with the project itself ... I'm disappointed with the people ... Yes I understand. That's what I meant although I didn't say it explicitly. Everything you said is correct. The only thing is, you're one of a kind around here, and I really mean it in a good way. Not e...

I usually no longer indulge in this kind of thread, but let's just hope that this thread doesn't get deleted at the end. The vast majority of 'official' releases are built with a private fork of woof-CE that is never published (with or without additional manual steps in the build process), so they'r...

With earlier versions 11.1 and 11.2 enabling DRM (setting up Widevine) worked, not with the newest version 11.3.2 . Only works if you had enabled DRM on older version already (and updated to11.3.2) , so that it is installed in the profile folder, not working when you start v11.3.2 "fresh"...

jamesbond

following specific rules IIRC, the only rule is that it has to be built using Woof-CE. There is nothing saying it can't be modified / customised afterwards. So a pup like BookwormPup64 is perfectly fine, IMO. however I think radky is reluctant to promote / devote energy to BookwormPup64 any further...

Midori is now available in Fatdog64's gslapt repository as well.
Thank you @ponchale and team.

In Fatdog64, you can just double-click the qv.img file with ROX and you can view the contents. Two additional drive icons will be shown on the desktop (dm-0 and dm-1), and you can mount them by clicking on the drive icon as usual. The main btrfs partition would be in dm-1. To un-mount it, just click...

At version 0.20.0. Get it using the SFS manager.

Imagemagick spits out an MD5 mismatch error and won't update. Couldn't reproduce. Perhaps bad gslapt cache on your machine. Try clicking "Update" first before re-installing imagemagick again; if you still have issue, open terminal and run slapt-get --clean , then try re-installing again. ...

I've been running the obsidian cursor for ages, and never encountered this problem. So today for a test I open terminal, run xrandr -s 1440x900 to force the to 1440x900, and then launch TAS by typing tas in the same terminal. I couldn't reproduce the problem, everything looked fine on my machine. No...

At version 0.19.2. Get it using the SFS manager.

jamesbond

Fix applied and uploaded. If you don't have Fatdog64 800 handy, just re-install libp11kit from gslapt.

jamesbond

This is now fixed. Re-install from gslapt.

jamesbond

Thanks tatemono , acknowledged and appreciated! Problem has been traced to some typo mistake in the build recipe of libp11kit. Will be queued for fix, and once fix release you can either re-download libp11kit from gslapt, or apply your original fix. I will make further post here once it is released....

jamesbond

Which "bigger cursor" did you choose?
First step to problem resolution is to be able to reproduce the issue.
First step to be able to reproduce the issue is to know the exact steps that you previously did.
So please kindly provide details.

In Fatdog64 800, imagemagick was built as a monolithic library. In 900, it is built using "modules", because ... well everybody knows modular is better, isn't it? Obviously (by hindsight), "modules" isn't ready for prime-time yet. The fix is to rebuild it (delete the line that sa...

Plugging the stuff to your computer's USB port should automatically load it if it is not already loaded.

jamesbond

You forgot to quote $0.
Should \$0 instead of $0 on line 2.
But why do it this way? Why not just use shell functions instead of eval?

jamesbond

ssvncviewer to connect to that however has, for me, awful F8 menu colors, white font on light grey and where the text is already relatively small. I haven't looked at the source code, but thought I'd ask whether anyone has a patch for that. Black text on white, or white text on black for example? N...

Something worth adding: you can use .netrc to avoid typing your credentials (or pasting your token) often. To do that: echo "machine github.com login YOUR_USERNAME password TOKEN" > ~/.netrc chmod 600 ~/.netrc Then, you can push and pull without typing your credentials. I didn't know this...

jamesbond

So a note for anyone creating huge remasters, please don't use humongous initrd as the bootloaders have size limitations (exactly what's the limit we're not sure yet, that needs further investigation). Upon further investigation: the size limit is actually 895MB give or take. This can be increased ...
