Last-minute Woof fixes

March 09, 2013 — BarryK
I am now building Precise Puppy 5.5-final, after some testing, will probably upload it late tonight or early in the morning (Perth, Australia).

I have managed to put in a couple of fixes.

Fixes for 'remasterpup2' by npierce:

Also, I think that I have fixed 'grubconfig', by using '--stdout' option for Xdialog to separate stderr messages.

trash noise!

"For some reason putting stuff into the trash or emptying the trash makes a belching noise! Just make sure that is not the case. http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=690590#690590 Apologies if you already dealt with this

"Needed to google "belching" :cool: http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-belching.htm Perhaps someone could give a codeline to record "Hmmm...Yummi!" :happy:

Re belch
Username: BarryK
"Ha ha, a bit uncouth! There was someone, can't recall the name right now, who who fixed the Trash. It had a few things wrong with it. I am not sure if that burping sound file was there before or got introduced. It may have been there before, but not used. Anyway, I have already uploaded Precise 5.5.

Re belch
Username: BarryK
"I probably should ask for a vote on this, to get the majority of opinion. Is it too unbecoming of Puppy to have that burp/belch sound? I will be creating a service pack for Wary/Racy 5.5 very soon, so can change the file then.

re noise

"As James said, my fix should work across the board. It's a dummy pet that has a pinstall.sh the deletes the "belch" then links back to 2barks.wav Some may find it amusing, others offensive, so revert it please.
