@fredx181 @mikewalsh wow! It seems very promising! I'll make other packages with CDE. There are many apps I miss in modern puppies that I'm unable to compile with newer gcc due to source code incompatibilities

Dingo

mikewalsh I use this comic book viewer for images packages into a . zip or .far Archive with cbz and CBR extensions I was in love with puppy 3.01 since 2007 to 2016, with same savefile and hypercustomized my puppy version compiling tons of terminal and GUI apps. There are many light apps I miss in ...

Dingo

these are portabilized packages I made with CDE qcomicbook https://www.dropbox.com/s/cvw4fsa4ytf3qv3/cde-qcomicbook.tar.xz?dl=1 a light qt3 cbz/cbr comic viewer that I used in puppy 3.01 you need to go in cde-root/tmp/qcomicbook.cde and click on .cde script. I don't have idea to avoid this every tim...

@mikewalsh
It is nothing of serious. I really love seamokey that is shipped with html editor and due to palemoon crazyness to drop support for extensions I think it will be my main browser in your portable variant

Dingo

trying to run this in xenialpup I get

Code: Select all

Your SeaMonkey profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible

edit. I found how to solve. You left a broken symlink in your package to /profile directory. I removed broken symlink and now seamonkey starts

Dingo

This can be useful if you have a RAM challenged machine as it may prevent a system lock up. I remember using it on an older machine long time ago. Used to run it every hour or so when watching HD videos. Typically useful when running in RAM mode. https://oldforum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=3131...

Then too, this AppImage may work aboard Xenial64. it starts and works fine, but when I try to export images, the application crashes Setting _INKSCAPE_GC=disable as a workaround for broken libgc Run experimental bundle that bundles everything (process:10956): Gtk-WARNING **: 21:52:03.126: Locale no...

Dingo

Many thanis @April @JakeSFR I'll try to rebuild from sources after applied patch

Dingo

Thanks @bigpup this is sad, since I love the cleaner openoffice UI

Dingo

Hi. I have just made the switch from rpi4 to rpi400. It was not as easy as I thought it would be. All the software was out of date and I needed a Debian OS to update and upgrade it. All my stuff was on USB and wireless was not working. Missing brcmfmac 43456. Thanks Bigpup for your post, it saved m...

Woof Woof! I used for the first time today inkscapelite and tried to type a text into, but when I try to use the text tool, at time I try to type any text, it gives to me a segmentation fault ** (inkscapelite:11650): WARNING **: Emergency save activated ** (inkscapelite:11650): WARNING **: Emergency...

Dingo

mikewalsh I'll update this post with xerrs.log that can be useful for others running my same hardware (Lenovo Thinkpad L440) and same puppy version (Bionicpup64) since running several wine apps cause that, after some time, x server crashes. For now, I ended up with booting Xenialpup 32 bit that has...

Dingo

mikewalsh this wine appimage works, but it seems very unstable while running a 32 bit windows application (Er Finestra) that, under wine 0.9.22, in puppy 3.01, was running flawless. Moving the .exe dialog windows of application around the screen is many times difficult and many times I experienced ...

Dingo

Woof woof. What wine version should I use in bionicpup64? I tried several listed in wine thread on forum, but after installing, I type

Code: Select all

wine

in terminal and nothing happens. Can I ask what package are you using to get it working?

Dingo

Probably the i915 driver in the kernel. That thing was constantly being worked on in the series 4 kernels. Intel was all over the place with changes to that driver. The version in the 5 series kernels is stable and bug fixed. Until the next new Intel graphics hardware comes along and it needs updat...

Dingo

@Dingo - you could, but better to use Setup/Remove builtin packages, from Main menu. .thanks it worked without pains. I also tried one of oldest available kernel for xenialpup64 4.9.13 and with this too I was able to see sharp images into chromium based browsers. So, my only deduction has to be tha...

Dingo

I'll try also fossapup, meanwhile, I made an astonishing discovery: I replaced the original 4.9.58 kernel in Xenialpup64 7.5 CE with 4.4.70 kernel generously provided by ozsouth https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=23531#p23531 It was very surprising for me to see that xenialpup64 7.5 with 4...

@Dingo - you might like to try this cpu temp .pet : viewtopic.php?p=4697#p4697 (uninstall pmcputemp first).

As far as I remember pmcputemp is a built-in application, so package manager cannot uninstall. Should I manually remove from bin directories and from tray?

Dingo

ozsouth mikewalsh I burned a modified ISO with 4.4.70 kernel Booted Settled connection and... Images in chromium based browsers very sharp, as sharp as in Palemoon, no more issues unlike that what happened with 4.9.58 original xenialpup64 7.5 CE kernel. I'm astonished! It was really a 4.9.58 kernel...

Dingo

@Dingo :- You having "issues" with k4.9.58? Or is this to do with your "blurry" images? I've never had any trouble with k4.9.58, and it's seen service in several other Puppies, besides Xenialpup64. For me, it's as reliable as they come. Like Mike says, AFAIK there isn't a 64-bit...

Dingo

Woof Woof. As far as I know, it seems that there is no kernel 4.1.30 for xenialpup64. Should I forget about this or there is a way I can obtain? Sorry for being so ignorant and dumb

Dingo

difficult for me to reproduce without laptop xbacklight version from iso check /sys/class/backlight if there is an intel_backlight folder create a config file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/30-intel.conf with following content and restart X-Server Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics&qu...

@Dingo xbacklight is installed but not tested extensively because lack of laptops ;-) It worked on my neighbours Asus laptop with nvidia graphics. Up to now there is only the 64bit version. don't work # xbacklight -set 6 No outputs have backlight property acpilight neither # acpilight env: can't ex...

Dingo

What about the light dimming for screen? It has xbacklight or acpilight? Or dimming works via F5-F6 keys on thinkpad?
Is there a 32 bit version or not?

Dingo

@Dingo I'm using the integeated hd4600 intel graphics on my computer too. In my case the operating system ist SLC64 and graphics works there like a charm. Btw. hardware acceleration, -decoding, dual monitor is working flawles too. Performed right now a comparison between chrome, vivaldi and seamonk...

If everything else (besides the specific browser) displays correctly, it's probably a software (browser) problem. I don't use the browsers you do so can't assist further in that regard.

Palemoon works fine in xenialpup64

Dingo

amethyst it seems they use the very same driver, so the fault is not here if I am right xenialpup64 7.5 Display Specifications: • Monitor VertRefresh: 60.00 times/s • Screen Dimensions: 1366x768 pixels (361x203 millimeters) • Screen Depth: 24 bits (planes) Xorg Startup Log (/var/log/Xorg.0.log): • ...
