Hi bob93 Try to select your main sound card again in qjackctl I have seen the default settings not work after install occasionally if I remember correctly. It should be something like ‘hw:PCH’ unless you’re using a usb card. Also, for the rox filer icons, if you right click to bring up the menu, go ...

Hi folks. Long time no chat… Yes the the theme endeavor in puppy has been painstaking. geo_c has dialed it in much further than I. I have also been away from the computer for a year or so now so it’s all a blur. I actually have a final version with a much refined theme that I never uploaded… but we ...

Wow!
My heart is with you...
May he travel well to his next place.

We lost a canine member of the family a couple weeks ago, only of 3 years but what vacuum that is left behind.

Thank you for sharing him with us. I think many of us grew to care for him and will feel the sting in our own way.

Hey Neo_78 That lingo for full vs frugal is confusing indeed. Full install of puppy is something like installing a stripped down version of the chosen distro the normal GNU/LINUX way. It is really only recommended if you have a specific need to modify permanently base system files etc. No real pros ...

Another one for frugal installs here. Just too easy compared to the fuss of the iso methods imo. I only ever had the 64bit ext4-G4D issue when making partitions on linux distros other than puppy. On the ventoy note.. I also dislike the seemingly over complicated methods in general so it never kept m...

Hi CorgBrannon welcome (: It is definitely helpful to include info about which pc and which puppy version as a general standard... You can use the .iso you already have to "write" the iso to usb. The above mentioned dd command will do from linux or you can use Balena etcher or Rufus from w...

Hi Snail Close.. you need to assign the img to a loop first with losetup like so: losetup --show -f -p *.img that will show the loop that is assigned e.g /dev/loop8 you can then see the partitions with lsblk and mount them each in their own dir. I had this query a few months back and eventually came...

Not only for appimage/flatpack,
I have had to add xdg-desktop-portal and xdg-desktop-portal-gtk for one of my audio apps. It was needed to create an open/save dialog in the native gtk format.

Another loving fan of Rox here... I also find the workflow I have acquired over my time with Rox just feels clumsy with the other two by comparison. Yet they do have those bonuses as well like the side pane with "devices" and "places". One feature in Rox I didn't see mentioned is...

I absolutely detest this modern "flat-look" that's currently all the rage. I guess I'm just stuck in the past! :shock: :lol: Totally agree!! Slickness black has been the starting point for my personal custom theme, which I am currently overhauling to better match gtk2/3 and jwm. Adjusting...

geo_c I checked out frescobaldi, seems the file in */bin is actually a python script not a binary executable, hence the message. fortunately for that one the list of requirements is clear in the read me. In fossa, right click on a binary will offer to open with listdd but not for .py or pearl scrip...

So if I make the pet like that, I suppose I could make pet's for all the necessary dependencies the same way, by either downloading from the repo, or compiling from source and using dir2pet. If that's a good approach, I'm seeing some light at the end of the tunnel, as every source package lists the...

Hi @artemis
For my setup I just used a startup script in /root/startup,

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
xrandr --output HDMI-1 --primary --left-of DVI-I-1

use xrandr --help for more options

or you could apt install lxrandr. That is the app used in fossapup.

Do the *dogs all have that naming, 'vmlinuz1' and 'initrd1.xz'? if so, why the "1"? Is it to distinguish from Puppy installs? For the debian and manjaro installs, are those initrd* and vmlinuz* files in /boot folder in the installation partition? That is my understanding, that /boot is th...

Running the script from debian dog bullseye.. root@live:~/Downloads# ./find-installations Found Windows Found Puppy Found Puppy Found Puppy This is partly correct however it does not count the dog i`m booting from which has vmlinuz1 and initrd1.xz in /bullseye/live in the same partition with the oth...

I have had some great success with this bootloader so far. I have used it for a "multiboot" disk image with a fat boot partition and an ext4 install partition. "limine-deploy" can be run on a .img file as well as a physical drive. So perfect for (easy)dd or balena-etcher. Example...

puddlemoon

So do I basically just download the 'src' folder to get started? Yes, the easiest is to get the .tar or.zip (either) I was curious and built it. It does use cmake. I had to add one build dependency, libxapian-dev, you may need more. Make sure to tick the "dev" box in ppm (bottom left) whe...

Yes, I also thought v3.7 was created after #180 was fixed, but I checked the commits and #180 fix is not in v3.7. If you look at the v3.7 tag, it says "27 commits to trunk since this release" -- including my two fixes. But maybe I am misunderstanding the v3.7 and the commits. I wasn't abl...

puddlemoon

This is very promising indeed. A nice simple syntax for both boot modes is a big win! Did some quick test with v3.7 built after #180 was addressed. Deployed on an .img file (fat boot partition and ext4 install partition) then written to usb with dd. UEFI boots fine but the legacy machine I tried fai...

puddlemoon

Thanks for the mount-img script! Funny timing, I had been working on a disk image of my remastered audio pup and came up with 2 very simple scripts. One to grab two loop points, create mount points and mount the partitions in the current dir. Then another script to unmount and remove the loop/mount ...

The interview is rather fascinating indeed

Nice! Glad to hear this puppy is staying busy. Yes, my first midi controller was "class compliant" but still the drivers were not part of the linux kernel at that time, not until 4.xx, almost 5.xx that it finally worked. I felt like a second class citizen when I spoke to arturia, who had z...

puddlemoon

Hi So I've been tinkering along still. Working toward a final version of 0.0 I have uploaded the latest iteration including an .img file for a new (better?) install option. It's a wip but so far so good. The image contains a fat boot partition and an ext4 main partition. It can be used with dd in li...

Should I set my QJackctrl settings to accommodate '41000' HZ instead? No you can set 48000 in ardour as well, I do, I keep everything at 48000 for consistency. However the ardour devs recommend using alsa with ardour unless you have a specific need to use jack, like to run jack apps alongside ardou...

geo_c I double checked the zip I uploaded and checked the contents on archive.org, I can see it's all there. Perhaps a bad download? My internet is acting up so I haven't been able to download it again myself yet. Here is the md5sum of the zip I uploaded.. f0ea6b9a03e2d28e06dba0d174721ad0 jackalpup...

Shortstop it seems like you have the means there, with a little trial and error, to get a very snappy setup. Also consider installing on an internal drive. On uefi I use rEFInd to boot pups, dogs, windows and mainstream linux. It takes a little setup but worth it in the end. I can't give much advic...

puddlemoon

I would agree that the original icon doesn't represent the project as well as it could. I think this box-in-box is a substantial improvement, very clean and precise also gives some clue to the nature of easy. Could be more "fun" or catchy but I think this is a better angle.
Just a thought (:

puddlemoon

Thanks so much geo_c ! It really means a lot to me that you have had such success with this labour of love (: Glad you are enjoying luppp too. It has been a favourite, a bit old but still great. I have been testing the nightlies of ardour and 7 will have a new function very similar to luppp. Good st...
