Hi @mmcdonald21

You need to run each app in a terminal and see what errors are reported - all the apps you mention are large ones that probably have missing dependencies..... maybe Qt5........ and others

Cheers!

when i run soffice i get: command not found i got Libreoffice from a post in here it was in a google drive folder, i installed this version libreoffice-5.4.0-x86_64-1. there isn't really any specific reason why i'm running Bionicpup32, i actually would love to switch to a more modern distro that is...

peebee

Most likely missing dependencies.

Run: soffice
in a terminal and see what errors are reported.

Where did you get LibreOffice from? BionicPup32 is getting very old so it's likely that only old versions of apps will run at all.

Are you sure you want to run BionicPup32? Is there a reason?

peebee

Yes, there is an "System Update" application in the menu. I will give a try to see if it works. Thank you so much! BionicPup32NG : https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=165 Latest build : 240208 Nobody has asked - hopefully you have a frugal install - just replace the .sfs etc in t...

Here are aufs6.7 and aufs6.6.4.
Hopefully I'll start aufs6.x-rcN for linux-v6.8-rcN series in near
future.

@amethyst If you are interested in using the older Chromium browser I'm using with Bionic 32, I can upload it for you. If @cobaka doesn't feel the need to take up your offer then I would like to if you don't mind - I am using Firefox V 122.0.1 (32-bit) at the moment - Thanks - Chelsea80 https://sou...

IF we are sticking with Ubuntu then we should be getting JammyPup64 uploaded in preparation for NoblePup64........ there is already a JammyPup64 build: https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/actions/workflows/ubuntu-jammy64.yml I personally think it would be better to get BookwormPup64 upload...

For example, Bionicpup, Fossapup and many other Puppy releases were not built from woof-CE as-is but with changes lost to time:

For example, Bionicpup64, Fossapup64

BionicPup32 & FocalPup32 are built on Github Woof-CE as is

Please keep this thread focussed on practical steps for improvement rather than philosophical debate .... thanks.

@BarryK has "PKGget" for use of his Void adaptation. Is that package manager applicable to this WoofCE PUP?

A different approach as I understand it - and only 64-bits..... unlikely to be applicable to VoidPup

Any thoughts? I'm not terribly proficient with these installers but they have worked for me in the past. Hi Marv Tried on a pristine frugal install of VoidPup64 and mpv installed (had to do "vpm fi libdb" but that's something I need to sort).... Perhaps there's something in your savefile ...

So I released (currently via Google Drive) this kernel without aufs ability but overlayfs enabled. Edited initrd.gz to include UNIONFS="overlay" rather than "aufs" then repacked and tested new kernel and it works. Hi I see graphics problems with 6.7.x and my Nvidia hardware........

@Insanitor @wizard

The Chromium .sfs from:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/lxpup/ ... /browsers/

should run on BookwormPup64 if the cpu has the necessary capabilities.....

An Intel Pentium 4 processor or later that's SSE3 capable
