Alright, the problem was that I didn't have the package xdotool. I was under the impression that this package was part of the system already. Installed the package and the command is working. I also tried lower sleep intervals to reduce the delay between clicking and hearing the sound as much as pos...

"pkill xbindkeys; sleep 0.1; xdotool click 1; play sound.mp3 & xbindkeys" b:1 It works . The red lines are the lines you have to use in your .xbindkeysrc file. The play sound.mp3 is just an example of the audio command and your expert used the play command instead of your deadbeef , w...

bob93

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 ...

bob93

Alright, I have given this a try using xbindkeys. First I had to create file /root/xbindkeysrc. Piece of cake Then in that file I had to specify the command to play the file and the button associated with it, like this (b:1 is left mouse button, and I chose deadbeef because mplayer and mpv take a se...

bob93

Certainly, this can be done for a 'global' rule for mouse behaviour. But from the sounds of it, you want this behaviour to ONLY occur when you're using specific programs? Not so much to have it only work while using certain programs, but to be able to turn it on and off whenever I want, if possible...

bob93

Is it possible to have a custom sound play every time you press a mouse button? sort of like how games work. You click certain things on the interface and you hear a certain sound. You right click and you hear another. If possible I'd like to hear a sound when I left click, and another when I right ...

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, g...

bob93

What kind of install did you do, and on what kind of partition, ntfs or ext, and did you make a savefile, or are you running in ram? Installed to an ext3 partition. If I go to the livecd and mount that partition I see two folders: jackalpup-0.0frugal and lost+found, so I guess the type of install i...

I just realized I cannot get jack running. On the live cd it worked, however since I installed the pup qjackctl is showing the error "Cannot lock down 82280346 byte memory area (Cannot allocate memory)". The full log is this: Cannot lock down 82280346 byte memory area (Cannot allocate memo...

bob93

Yup, I was under the false impression that Rox icons could be changed from jwm settings manager. Now there's only one thing left to do. Change the system theme text color from cyan to white. I think I have to edit a text line for that, but there's a bunch of files in the theme folder. Do you know wh...

I know because just last week I made an attempt to install Ardour Debian SID packages and dependencies on fossapup F96_CE4 in. It broke the system beyond repair. Holy sh... Actually, I think I'm OK with Ardour 6.6. It has the main thing I was looking for which is the latency info on the toolbar. No...

Hi friends. ... ... -adrv (161 MB) adds Ardour 6.6, calf rack, some more synths and several hundred more plugins. ... ... So if you have a need, interest, curiosity... Please try it out. Hi. I was looking on the forum for a newer version of Ardour than the one that comes with fossapup64 and I stumb...

Well, it's possible to route to applications using alsa, I think. Though a lot more difficult than jack. I'm looking for the less difficult solution so I guess I'll search for threads about using jack on puppy So sounds like maybe you're using the Hydrogen mixer and trying to get a feel for the eq ...

bob93

But if you're not using jack and just straight alsa then japa applicaton looks like it might do the job, so you could check the debian repository, or maybe the fossapup package manager which can browse the correct compatible Debian repository. Did you try that yet? I have japa, but it picks up the ...

bob93

I don't know what pup you're using, but I'm doing a lot of work with pipewire in KLV-airedale. In fact tonight I used Hydrogen to do a few configuration tests with LSP plugins. Using a jack or pipewire jack setup will certainly allow a spectrum analyzer to be inserted in signal flow. Maybe you're n...

is your system using pulseaudio or straight ALSA?

ALSA as far as I can tell

bob93

Is it possible to monitor the internal audio with specrogram apps such as jaaa or japa? When I open them they seem to only be picking up the microphone audio. I want to analyze the internal audio coming from Hydrogen, which unfortunately doesn't have itself a spectrum analyzer. I reckon it's possibl...

bob93

Is there a screenshotting program that allows you to set coordinates and size precisely and continue to take screenshots using those settings? I had a look at a few ppm packages and none seems to have the possibility of setting screen coordinates

bob93

Coming back to this thread for one little thing. The mouse has worked nicely after adding the command to startup folder. However, if I unplug the mouse and plug it again, it goes back to not working properly. So the question is how can I make this command run automatically not only when the system s...

How I get sound from Firefox installed in Fossapup64 9.5 Fossapup64 already has apulse installed and that is all that is needed to make Firefox think it is using pulse audio. DO NOT INSTALL FIRFOX FROM PUPPY PACKAGE MANAGER (PPM) The Firefox packages are too much built specifically for Ubuntu. Use ...

bob93

bob93, Most of the recent Puppies have apulse built-in. If not, you can install it as a .pet package but don't do that if your Puppy already has it. We need to know what Puppy you are talking about (FossaPup and Xenial64 are mentioned in your signature) Then we need to know what Firefox you are usi...

bob93

Just wondering about this process. I heard it's related to kernel but I've also read linux malware disguise as that process.
Is it normal for conky to show it but for task manager to not show it?

Edit: I've also seen it as kworker/1:1-even and kworker/1:5-even. Is that allright?

bob93

@bob93 :- O-kay. What I would do in your situation would be to uninstall the apulse .pet to start with. Question; is this the original Fossapup64 that Phil Broughton released 3 years ago? That's the only one that actually uses ALSA in the same way that earlier Puppies used it. All of the later re-b...

bob93

A 64-bit 'apulse' package that will work with Fossapup64 can be obtained from OscarTalks' repo, here:- http://smokey01.com/OscarTalks/apulse-0.1.13-x86_64.pet That's a direct download link, BTW. You'll need to install the .pet, do a re-boot, then the Exec line of Firefox's launcher needs to have &q...

Line disappeared today. What I did today was disable desktop compositor, pressed Ctrl+Alt+Backspace a few times, (as usual) used a gif recorder that uses the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+R, and used Inkscape, which has several Ctrl/Alt/Shift shortcuts and modifiers. I don't know if any of those things caused t...

bob93

... :!: But I should immediately note that I recently discussed the work of embedded extensions on one of the Russian forums. The bottom line is this: almost no one checks the operation of Inkscape extensions. As a result, everything works except for some extensions. A vivid example... how is it in...

bob93

You all seemed to be trying to get a transparent background. I wanted a semitransparent one, so that text would remain readable regardless of whether the desktop background is light or dark. As a newbie I had to dig a bit to find out how to achieve this, since it's not possible from the Conky settin...

bob93

Hello. This version of inkscape has a very unfortunate bug that was fixed in later versions. Do you know if there's been any newer version released for puppy? Hello. Here is the latest version 1.2.2 (SFS): inkscape-1.2.2-fossapup-x86_64_9.5.sfs :!: But I should immediately note that I recently disc...

bob93

hmmm, I restarted the system and it's there. I'm not sure what caused the line to disappear, probably other settings I have messed up with. I'll let you know if it disappears again. This time though I set mask to 4, because ctrl+shift+drag is needed by inkscape. So far so good This is a hard drive i...
