Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

F96 is meant to just be made available to bridge the gap until Jammy's can be woof-CE generated. There is one thing I would like to point out again. On recent puppies we cannot use IME with Chrome 102 or later. It is only on Fossapup64 9.5 and Jammypup64 9.7b / 9.8 by Grey that we can use IME with ...

Hello. I am testing F96_4-CE by rockedge. Here are my observations: 1. While it is booting, some messages which we don't usually see are displayed. Even though those messages don't affect the performance of the OS, I don't want them displayed. 2. I booted, set the timezone to localtime (not utc) and...

I am testing RC3, and as far as I am concerned, it is working fine. The interface of mtPaint is in Japanese in the Japanese environment. Thanks. I am looking forward to S15Pup becoming a stable/official release. Edit: One thing I am sorry for is that, as is often the case with recent puppies, we can...

Did you install both pets? The NLS pet is not included in the iso.............. The NLS for the included MtPaint can be found at: http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pe ... 4_s700.pet Did you test the package? Of course I tried the "NLS for the included mtPaint" before, but it was useles...

I compiled mtPaint-3.50.09 in S15Pup64 Thanks. I installed the packages, and they seem to work fine. (I have not yet tried the application in detail.) I hope this version or some other version ready for internationalization will be included in S15Pup. I have prepared a Japanese language pack for S1...

OscarTalks' explanation seems convincing to me.

I wonder why mtpaint-3.49.12-x86_64_s700.pet continued to be used in Slacko64 7.0, ScPup64 and S15Pup64.
It is strange that few people have paid attention to the localization of the package.

vmlinuz...linux kernel zdrv...kernel drivers fdrv...firmware The kernel and kernel drivers are inseparable. You said the wifi was active on 9.7b, so I thought you could use the kernel of 9.7b. The original kernel of 9.8 is older than that of 9.7b. Usually the newer kernel supports newer hardware. An...

But mtpaint-3.49.12-x86_64_s700.pet doesn't get localized even though mtpaint.mo is present. I tried removing mtpaint.mo and running MoManager. mtpaint is not listed as "Binary executables that don't have a mo file." I suspect that the application is not compiled so that it may be localiz...

@thinkpadfreak It's exactly the same size so presumably behaves the same vis-a-vis localisation......... Is it possible to say how the petbuild should be altered?? I am not complaining about the form of the package. Any form (pet, tgz, txz) will be OK as long as it works. But mtpaint-3.49.12-x86_64...

As far as I know, there are only two puppies on which we can use an IME with Chrome. One is fossapup64 9.5 and the other is jammypup64 9.7b/9.8. I have long been wondering what makes a difference. As an average user, I can't think of any workaround. This issue affects not only Japanese people but a...

I suggest that you back up the vmlinuz, fdrv sfs and zdrv sfs of 9.8 to some other place, and that you use the vmlinuz, fdrv sfs and zdrv sfs of 9.7b for jammypup64 9.8. It is necessary that the fdrv and zdrv be renamed as fdrv_jammypup64_9.8.sfs and zdrv_jammypup64_9.8.sfs. couldnt make that work ...

Please say why "is not ready for localization"? Please suggest alternative of similar size and preferably GTK2. I suspect that the function of localization is not compiled in. The interface remains in English even though .mo file exists. I tried the version found below: https://sourceforg...

Hello.

I am afraid the version (or package) of mtPaint included in S15Pup is not ready for localization. Those included in Slacko64 7.0 and ScPup64 are not, either.

I would like to ask that the package of mtPaint be replaced with another version (or package).

Hello. I have installed fossapup64 9.6 and am testing if it works in the Japanese environment. I noticed that we cannot use an IME (Japanese input system) with Chrome running on fossapup64 9.6. As far as I know, there are only two puppies on which we can use an IME with Chrome. One is fossapup64 9.5...

it does on Jammypup version 9.7b I suggest that you back up the vmlinuz, fdrv sfs and zdrv sfs of 9.8 to some other place, and that you use the vmlinuz, fdrv sfs and zdrv sfs of 9.7b for jammypup64 9.8. It is necessary that the fdrv and zdrv be renamed as fdrv_jammypup64_9.8.sfs and zdrv_jammypup64...

I noticed that i965_dri.so and i965_drv_video.so were missing, and added them. The two files are included in fossapup64, and probably in other puppies.

Though intel video chips can be driven by the universal "modesetting" driver, I would like to use the "intel" driver.

Hello. I am glad that you have restarted the development of jammypup64. It is one of the two puppies on which we can use IME with Chrome. :thumbup: (The other is fossapup64) However, with the kernel included in the iso, it was impossible to boot the OS installed on an ntfs partition of the internal ...

what can be put up as the official edition

Hello.

I think an "official edition" is what is called a "stable" version.
A lot of people test it before it is released and it has as few bugs as possible.

That is my opinion. Other people may think differently.

Woof-CE Issue #3502 raised: https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/w ... ssues/3502 I read through the discussion, and I sort of understood. I wonder if there was not any discussion among the developers before the change. So, is there a workaround? I will stay at +12, even if the weird messages disp...

<r><p>Hello.</p> <p>I updated FF+D to the latest version, but I see many strange messages while it is booting, which I have not seen in previous versions.<br/> Strangely, there was no such file as /initrd/tmp/bootinit.log</p> <p>I replaced vmlinuz and zdrv sfs with those from jammypup32.<br/> Most o...

The attached picture shows two identical icons (like keyboards) in the tray. I thought of a workaround. ~$ chmod 744 /usr/bin/scim-im-agent This prevents user spot from running the executable. As a result, only one icon of the input method is displayed. I still don't know how user spot starts scim-...

Can you share any instructions how to use scim the way you do? I need a way to test it. 1. Install "scim-anthy" and dependencies 2. Install "scim-gtk-immodule" and dependencies 3. Install "fonts-takao-gothic" (any japanese font will do) 4. Insert the following lines at...

Sometimes logout_gui stops working under some conditions.

What is the version of jwmdesk in 9.7c?
In 9.7b jwmdesk 3.3 modified logout_gui and eventually broke it. So I installed jwmdesk 3.5.4.

apt-get autoremove --purge, apt-get clean and apt-get autoclean will help you keep your save files small and tidy

Thanks again for the useful information.

try to free some space in the save file Before rebooting, I had installed some packages in addition to executing "apt-get update." I looked in the save file and found that some directories were empty files. I created a new save file and it worked fine. Thanks for your advice, and sorry fo...

Hello. I installed version 9.2.19 (frugal install to the internal HDD). I created a save file and rebooted to find that the OS started like the first boot. According to the messages while it is starting, the save file seems to be read, but actually it is not. The window of QuickSetup opened. Strange...

I followed your instructions, but no go. I am sorry to hear that. I searched the Internet for a while, and found that pango seems to prevent the use of some fonts. Ubuntu 20.04 - Terminus font not working anymore https://askubuntu.com/questions/1236769/ubuntu-20-04-terminus-font-not-working-anymore...

I think that there are some settings which prevent using bitmap fonts, and that those settings are defaults in recent Puppies. In /etc/fonts/conf.d, there is 70-no-bitmaps.conf. Try removing this and creating a link named 70-yes-bitmaps.conf. The files in /etc/fonts/conf.d are links pointing to file...

Why build .pet and not SFS language packs? Well, it is not impossible to provide a language pack in the form of sfs packages such as adrv sfs. In fact, I used the method to create a Japanized version of Fossapup64. I am not sure whether it is appropriate to call it a language pack. It is part of an...
