I would like to throw in an observation that I posted to my blog a couple of days ago: https://bkhome.org/news/202202/widescreen-wallpaper-truncated-horizontally-for-non-widescreen.html hi BarryK , could you post a .pet of your new wallpaper setter. The distorted wallpaper thing always bugged me an...

hmmm ... possibly a gtk3 v gtk2 thing. yep ... see this post https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/1848 removed from gtk3 :( gtkdialog was updated in woofce by 01micko & dimkr so that it can render in gtk3 or gtk2. the default is gtk3 but can be changed to gtk2 either at build time or by editing...

hi @grey ,

does window shading work with the scroll wheel ? (put cursor on title bar and use scroll wheel. window should roll up)

666philb

@Grey good to see you using woofce!! i
if your build is booting the first thing i would run is

Code: Select all

checkdeps -system

to see if stuff is missing (even if no X)

666philb

each puppy contains its own build recipe in /var/packages so grab imppups from there (or dmikrs). note that the names differ slightly to what's in woofce and so will need to be renamed. i.e....... /var/packages/DISTRO_COMPAT_REPOS = DISTRO_COMPAT_REPOS-ubuntu-jammy in woofce. i can give a more detai...

hi @grey, i uploaded the older package manager to the fossapup repo so as long as you've allowed fossa's repo in DISTRO_PET_REPOS this line grabs it .... yes|puppy_package_manager||exe,dev,doc,nls i am playing with a jammypup at the moment and it's trivial to go from impish to jammy just use the fil...

hi @courtage ,

it's probably rox's thumbnails that are slowing you down.
you can turn them off by right clicking on an desktop icon >> ROX-Filer >> Options >> Thumbnails

loving the title of this thread

666philb

paste this into a terminal

Code: Select all

petget https://launchpad.net/~rednotebook/+archive/ubuntu/stable/+files/rednotebook_2.22-0~202104251515~ubuntu20.04.1_all.deb

install fontconfig & fontconfig-config from the ppm to fix this. it will show up as already installed but re-install it
you might need to restart X to see the difference

Hello, is there any way to make the jwm dock and tray semi-transparent with Picom? I tried the lines opacity-rule = ["93:class_g = '_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DOCK'"]; and opacity-rule = ["93:class_g = 'jwm'"]; But no joy. I realize this is probably the wrong line but I don't know how ...

Btw, the 32 bit link of Fossapup64 seems dead at this point.

peabees isos are linked here viewtopic.php?p=295#p295
UPupFF+D32 is the 32bit focal

what about isobooter https://oldforum.puppylinux.com/viewtop ... =67235&i=2

I noticed two things. Scrolling through tabs with the mouse wheel doesn't seem to work (which works in Fossapup :) ). Qemu 6.1.0 is not installed from PPM. After downloading it manually from ibiblio and unpacking it, there is no qemu_gui script in it. qemu_gui is part of woofce and is in all newer ...

Will there be a transition to GTK4?

we've only just gone to gtk3

gtk4 is probably just one single button for everything

ALPHA this is imppup / indripup built using ubuntus impish indri packages. what's new? vidcutter : a video clipper/editor. this isn't kdenlive but is quick and actually really useful for clipping sections out of video. you can also edit with it but clips need to be the same dimensions as it does no...

I have an AMD Radeon 5800. I was using exclusively Puppy for a few months. I have eye problems that cause me to only be able to use a computer with a blue light filter. The only Puppy that gave me a blue light filter that works on this computer is Slacko64-8.2.1, but it was really difficult to get ...

hi geo_c , themes go in /usr/share/themes or /root/.themes as you found out the theme is set in rox in it's options and you may need to restart X for them to be consistent in rox. puppy also has it's own theme directory for both the jwm menu and the desktop icons /usr/local/lib/X11/themes. these are...

...and now that the repository's been added through pkg, I can search it from within PPM. Tried installing flatpak through PPM from the alexlarsson bionic repo, but it complained it couldn't find files and aborted the download. Same thing for an earlier version I found in PPM (flatpak 1.0.9 as oppo...

I normally run Fossapup64 and like it, BUT I wish I can use my bluetooth enabled headphone in puppy. I am able to use the headphone in Ubuntu 21.04 without any difficulites. In FP64, using Janky_BT applet to setup when I enter "scan on" " I get an error "Failed to start discover...
