Porteus-v3.2.2 bug reports here

[lolololo]

This not a "bug" but can create one

Both in porteus 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 the file "ld.so.conf" has a line pointing to...
/usr/i486-slackware-linux/lib
should be
/usr/i586-slackware-linux/lib

slackware 14.2 use i586 not i486

bye

XFCE-4.9.0-porteus i686
Bug?
The /home/guest/.cache/ folder collects "keyring-*" folders
shouldn't they been overwritten / replaced?

Trouble with PPTP connection (connection via cable - is not through a router) in Porteus 3.2.2

Code: Select all

/usr/sbin/pppd: pppd is unable to open the /dev/ppp device.
You need to create the /dev/ppp device node by
executing the following command as root:
mknod /dev/ppp c 108 0

and PPTP with Static IP has the same story.

This command

Code: Select all

mknod /dev/ppp c 108 0

has fixed this issue.

Probably, Porteus does not load the ppp kernel module?
More info http://www.ru.j-npcs.org/usoft/WWW/HOWT ... WTO-6.html

BTW, not confirmed, but probably we have the same problem with PPPoE connection (connection via cable - is not through a router) in Porteus 3.2.2.

I did not read all about this 3.2.2 thread. Sorry if this a known bug.

I boot into kde5 there is no wallpaper (black screen) and no panel menu. The right click menu appears. I can run command and from there start some application.

From this same contextual menu, I try to add another panel menu. It does not work.

No panel at all.

Thanks.

[Bogomips]

Been running kde5 (32 bit) solid since new year, not come across this. Got all sorts of things also somewhat like this, before tuning kde5. Normally landing in such situation by killing X, and then doing init 4.

[francois]

@bogomips:
Thanks for your proposition. However:

Code: Select all

init 3
login: guest
startx

would not provide any changes. There is still is no panel.

Everything was fine for me under 3.2.1 under every desktop environment.

Since 3.2.2, I have to use the acpi=no cheatcode to run porteus, otherwise the os will not even boot. With that syntax xfce DE will work perfectly. At least as I can see yet. But this not the case of kde5 plasma as stated in the above post of mine.

Here is my lspci output, if it could be of any help. I have a toshiba satellite z930:

There is no similar issue on the net about that type of problem.

not a solution.
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=210439

Would someone with the 3.2.2 kde environment try the acpi=no cheatcode, just to see if this is the issue?


Thanks.

Hello, not bug, but text mistake: In "XFCE" go to "Menu > System > Create Porteus live USB" and now you can see twice "Pertition" instead of "Partition".

[neko]

@movobojo
Thank you for your point out.
It is my mistake.
My poor English skill produced the spell miss.

======================================
source files: /usr/share/live-usb/bin/live-usb, /usr/share/live-usb/src/live-usb.po
package: live-usb-3.1-noarch-7
module: 002-xorg
---------------------------------------------------------------
live-usb: line 73
FP_SIZE=`gettext live-usb "1st Pertition size(MB)"`
---->
FP_SIZE=`gettext live-usb "1st Partition size(MB)"`

live-usb: line 74
SP_FS=`gettext live-usb "2nd Pertition File System"`
---->
SP_FS=`gettext live-usb "2nd Partition File System"`

live-usb.po: line 30
msgid "1st Pertition size(MB)"
---->
msgid "1st Partition size(MB)"

live-usb.po: line 33
msgid "2nd Pertition File System"
---->
msgid "2nd Partition File System"
======================================
If you edited your own language "live-usb.po", it must be corrected coresponding lines.
And "live-usb.mo" must be converted from the corrected "live-usb.po" with "msgfmt" command too.


I am sorry.

hi,
The current v3.2.2 XFCE seems not stable in my laptop.Sometimes work well, but give a lot of error messages which can only be seen when shutting down; then at next boot
the display resolution will not be correct (default 1024*768, instead of the NORMAL 1366*768), and cannot be adjusted; also, mouse response become very slow. Can someone tell me the reason and how to get around this problem? thanks!

I use several modules since v2.1, ie, audacity, gimp2.8.6, code::blocks12.11, etc; do these modules conflict with the current version of porteus ?

[Bogomips]

Code: Select all

oot@porteus:/home/guest# usm -s gimp

gimp-2.8.16-i586-1.txz was found in slackware [not installed]
gimp-2.8.18-i586-1_slack14.2.txz was found in slackwarepatches [not installed]

gimp now 2.8.16. If using here same modules as for 2.1 could have old dependencies, which are no longer being satisfied. Need a gimp with 14.2 dependencies IMHO.

2) In Menu>Settings Manager>Keyboard>Application Shortcuts - we are have some missing keyboard shortcuts (hotkeys).
For example Ctrl+Alt+T for opening a terminal (xfce4-terminal) window.

The configured keyboard shortcuts are stored in : ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml
And the system default : /etc/xdg/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml

      <property name="Print" type="string" value="xfce4-screenshooter"/>

add after

Code: Select all

BTW, I not able to set a hotkeys Ctrl+Alt+Print Screen with the command xfce4-screenshooter -w for get active windows screenshot (for XFCE it's not critical, because all ok with Print Screen - you have a good choice in this window).

3) I think that 7zip-GUI (/usr/bin/7zFM and probably others 7zip GUI apps too) must been removed (action for a right click for 7zip of context menu too)

"no need for the 7z-GUI", but the CLI version of 7-Zip is need as air and water.
