In BW10.0.1 yad is a script that calls itself, an infinite loop... @MHHP In BW64 10.0.1, /usr/bin/yad (0.42.81) is in binary format. Is it possible you have installed a PET or other package that replaced the default binary yad with a script ? I downloaded the .iso-file again and the modify time of ...

In BW10.0.1 yad is a script that calls itself, an infinite loop... @MHHP In BW64 10.0.1, /usr/bin/yad (0.42.81) is in binary format. Is it possible you have installed a PET or other package that replaced the default binary yad with a script ? Well, yad is a script in my BW64-10.0.1.iso, see attache...

In BW10.0.1 yad is a script that calls itself, an infinite loop... I guess that the real yad, renamed as yad-FULL or something, was accidentally omitted... Didn't get the newest sfs_load by dimkr to run without hanging, until I replaced yad with the real file (took it from BW10.0.0). Now sfs_load.ov...

And fortunately for me, I've only used Pupmode13 since I found out about it. I wonder how many Puppy users use PUPMODE 12 or 66 and not 13, and I wonder how many Puppy users don't boot from a flash drive. IMO PUPMODE 13 is the best feature of Puppy :) Any Puppy built before https://github.com/puppy...

Hello!

In order to compile the kernel, I had to download the "libelf-dev"-package.

How about including this package in the devx?

Thanks, williams2! I never really stated why I asked about this. Up until Slacko-6.9.9.9 I could jump out to a tty-console (while X was still running) and issue the command reboot/shutdown or wmreboot/wmshutdown and have just that; a proper reboot/wmreboot or shutdown/wmshutdown. In Slacko-7.0 I cou...

In /sbin/poweroff and in /usr/bin/wmexit, at line 37 and 53, respectively (Slacko 7.0), there is a test [ "$DISPLAY" ] that would yield a negative answer if I would have X still running and just entered a real tty-console and issued the command poweroff/reboot or wmpoweroff/wmreboot. Those...

I am trying to compile a kernel module in Slacko-7.0 with kernel K4.19.164. I have downloaded the kernel sources, extracted them and working in a directory ?/linux-4.19.164. Then I issue the commands: # make M=fs/minix clean CLEAN fs/minix/.tmp_versions CLEAN fs/minix/Module.symvers # make M=fs/mini...

Thanks! Problem solved.

Hello! I ran the GetLibreOffice-utility. Writer works, Calc Works, Math works. Draw complains about some lib, even though it is present in /opt, Impress just refuses to run, Base complains about JRE, even though I've loaded the JRE-.sfs. I downloded with helppack= en_GB, langpack=en_GB, langpack=sv ...

Firstly: Sincere thanks for a new slacko pup :)! Questions: 1. In older pups, up to and including slacko 6.9.99, it was possible to use F10 for programs run in a virtual console. Where is the binding of F10 to JWM's "window" set? Have not found it, is this setting hard-coded? If so, how c...
