The gizmo dotpet was built from scratch using the generic Linux tar.gz download from the gizmo-project website (i.e. gizmo-project-3.1.0.79-1-libstdc""++""6.tar.gz). If you have previously installed Charni Singh's dotpet for the gizmo-project you should remove that using petget before installing the streamlined version This new dotpet (gizmo-proj-3.1.0.79-req.libstdc""++""6.pet) was created on Puppy 4.00 (Dingo). It has been **successfully tested on clean installs of both Dingo and Puppy 2.17.1** ==== {{color fg="yellow" bg="black" text="NOTES"}} ==== 1. Gizmo crashes when used with Puppy version 4.00 (Dingo) if you try selecting File->Preferences or if you click on the main panel "Preferences" button (it doesn't crash in Puppy 2.17.1 as far as I know). The workaround is not to try and select Preferences! You can always manually change any preference values by editing the text xml files in the gizmo configuration directory: /root/.gconf/apps/gizmo/settings I suggest you first back up any that you wish to alter. In practice, you probably don't need to change any of the preferences anyway. 2. You can find a libstdc""++""5 version of gizmo 3.1.0.79 suitable for older puppies such as Puppy version 2.16CE in the sub-directory: libstdc5-version-for-older-pups. You still need to first install the orbit and Gconf dotpets from the directory this readme file is in. The libstdc""++""5 version of gizmo may work in some pups even older than 2.16, but I haven't been able to test that. A few config files are left behind even then, so you should remove them manually if you want to avoid the dreaded GDB missing startup error on reinstallation. The one to manually remove are (note the dots before the names): /root/.gizmo /root/.gconf /root/.gizmo-cache //Proposed agenda for any conference meet:// Introductions The website "What is the site for?" - to help people in the community keep track of what is happening - to help orientate newbies Puppy identity E-learning Any other business setting another meeting {{include DingoAddons}}
