Re: Version for 64 bits machines

Full guide is here http://alphaos.tuxfamily.org/wiki/doku.php?id=home:build, you can play with the build scripts or improve them, in case of some problems I'll try to help.

PekWM dynamic menu generator

PekWM like openbox also supports dynamic menus , so I got idea to patch openbox-menu - program that generates pipe menus for openbox, and adjust it to work with pekwm. Also it compiles with Gtk3. You can see result on screenshots bellow with radiance pekwm theme :) http://www.dodaj.rs/t/3V/wG/3x5Qsu...

Re: alphaOS 7.0

Thanks mcewanw, I think pacman is big advantage compared to other Puppy Linux based systems, many will see that... in time. Those that won't, it's their problem... :)

Re: alphaOS 7.0

could you help me to replace alphaOS kernel with ArchPup kernel? Ok, let's try that 1) you need vmlinuz from archpup , just copy that file over original alphaos in you installation folder 2) now replace kernel modules in alpha.sfs with: unsquashfs alpha.sfs delete /lib/modules/3.9 copy /lib/modules...

Re: alphaOS 7.0

Interesting... maybe try replacing AlphaOS kernel with version 3.4 from ArchPup, and then test with that one. Replacing kernel is not too complicated... until you come to modules in initrd.gz

Re: Wireless connection in 7.0

I'm just guessing, but let's say two things might be problem: first wpa_supplicant was upgraded to version 2.0 in Arch repository and in latest alphaos (version 1.0 was used in ArchPup and all earlier alphaOS versions), 2nd maybe this kernel is too new for some wireless firmware files.

LXDE is moving from GTK+ to Qt

Looks like gtk3 because of its frequent updates and API changes is not very popular among programmers http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=lxde-list , so LXDE developers decided to switch to Qt, perhaps they will merge with razor-qt in the future. There are already some applicatio...
