I knew there was something about su that I'd forgotten.
I'll start with a new save. I only kept it because of the problems with connman-gtk.

Keef

I've upgraded to 11.0.199. Connman-gtk now working. I couldn't open a terminal in spacefm, but it is set to 'defaultterminal' which doesn't exist. Changing it to foot solves this. Still get that "Setting locale to ..." dialog which will not go away after changing locale. apt is complaining about ...

Keef

After changing locale, the dialog box with "Setting locale to en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8" sits over the top bar and won't go away unless I restart the graphical server. Is there a way to set the default keyboard layout? I can do it manually in .xkbrc, but wondered if there was another method. Using 'Add ...

Keef

I had no idea you could do that. Far too simple. Shouldn't be allowed.

Keef

Got to ~/.config/lxqt/panel.conf and amend that.

If you added Chrome through gslapt, then use that to uninstall. Otherwise just delete its directory.

Keef

You can do it by changing the default browser to whatever you prefer:

FatDog control panel
System
FatDog Edit Default Programs
Click on BROWSER and edit the entry.

This forum has always been welcoming to weirdos and oddballs. Even people who are just plain wrong.
Life goes on...

@Keef Do you have fractional scaling enabled? It breaks some old applications and this could be one of them.

No (not even sure I know how ). It had worked fine on previous releases.

Re connman-gtk failure to run. I can make it run from the terminal by using the no icon option. connman-gtk --no-icon I was also having problems trying to run connman, but I will try that solution next time. I did try starting it on the terminal and got this: # connman-gtk (connman-gtk:6400): dbind ...

Simplify it:
Change

Code: Select all

find –set-root uuid () 29abcea7-6a35-473c-b2f3-d47cabbb047e

to

Code: Select all

uuid 29abcea7-6a35-473c-b2f3-d47cabbb047e

No more rogue hyphens to worry about.

Keef

It lists people who they are encouraging to apply. It does not explicity exclude other groups.

datadash might be ok: https://github.com/keithknott26/datadash?tab=readme-ov-file It has to be compiled with go but comes out as 4199K stripped. ldd datadash linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fa2e56d2000) libresolv.so.2 => /lib64/libresolv.so.2 (0x00007fa2e56bb000) libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 ...

Code: Select all

error: could not acquire watcher name

I think you get that error if it is already running.

Keef

Code: Select all

export CFLAGS=-m32

might do it, but possibly some 32 bit libs as well.

If it knew the answer, there would be no need to ask.

Keef

Look in /var/log. Xorg.0.log is probably the one you want.
Also try running dmesg in a terminal, but there is a lot of ouput.

I've posted this link before, but might be useful:

Keef

They match for me. Have you tried downloading again?

Keef

For some reason the 'M' is for 'Metro'. I suppose it could be useful for someone, somewhere.

A couple of years ago I got several of these in a short space of time. All quoting the same password, which I recognised as one I had used, but not current and not for anything important. Anyway, it was all obviously a load of b*ll*cks so I took no notice. Several people had bought the same info ...

iPhones/iPads have very good accessibility. Talkback on Android is ok but a bit 'noisy' - too much info and can be irritating. Have a look here https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/iphone/iph3e2e4367/ios @mikewalsh - Refreshable Braille displays can be connected to PCs (and there are stand alone ...

Somehow I am reminded of the Oozlam bird.

I wasn't suggesting a poll about Puppy usage. More of a "guess the missing word".

Keef

but I assure you I am ...

Anyone want to start a poll?

Keef

I have downloaded the free version previously, and must have had to give my email as I get regular offers. I can get the full version for £6.99 until Tuesday.

@jamesbond

Is this it? https://oldforum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=23107 I've still got a few multi-iso DVDs knocking around, but haven't used them in years. Moderator's edit: There's a link in that thread that won't work unless you change it to https://oldforum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=16204 - Flash

Keef

I'm not entirely convinced an answer is required. But maybe my 'A.I. radar' is getting a bit excitable. Who knows.

Keef

This would probably happen with any file selection dialog with any application. You select a different file, and the entry changes. As this is a download, you can only get back to it by closing the box and selecting the link again. It has nothing to do with rox. But yes, not a very useful right ...
