Slackware :: SBopkg Queues Git Download?
Jun 4, 2011Anyone know of the simple (!) command syntax to : a) download the full SQF tree from [URl].. b) maintain that tree WITHOUT having to download the whole dang thing again.
I'm 100% certain this is possible - that's exactly what source-code repository tools like subversion and git are supposed to do. But Git is complex and that site doesn't seem to have an obvious (to me) method of doing part b)
Slackware :: Dzen2 Won't Download With Sbopkg
Mar 29, 2010I was very happy to see that dzen2 is now available on SlackBuilds.org because now I can use XMonad to its fullest. Unfortunately, sbopkg is not able to download the source code for dzen2. This is probably because the source is hosted on Google Code, which requires the user to click a second download link for some reason. I downloaded the source and the SlackBuild manually and installed dzen2 that way, and that worked perfectly, but I would really prefer to have sbopkg manage updates for me. Is there any way I could get this working? Perhaps I could just download the source manually, place it in the appropriate directory, and let sbopkg build it and manage updates, but I don't know which directory the source would go in or if this would even work.
Here is the link to the SlackBuilds.org page for dzen2: [URL]
Slackware :: Sbopkg - How To Install Svn Versions Of X264 - Ffmpeg - Mplayer ?
Jan 29, 2010How users to install the latest svn versions of x264, ffmpeg and mplayer. Primarily, this is important for users who rip movies from dvds.
How do I perform the same tasks using sbopkg? I believe some compilation options must be changed to reflect the svn changes.
Has anyone done this before? Are the steps important when using slackware 13 x86_64?

Feb 13, 2011I am very happy to announce that today I succeeded to install full Slackware ARM on the pandaboard: URL...I did the following:
* sd with 2 partitions, one (vfat) for bootloaders (MLO, u-boot.bin) and uImage and the other one (ext2) for minirootfs
* copy xloader (MLO), uboot and uImage from Angstrom distro on the first partition
* copy Slackware ARM minirootfs on the second partition with Angstrom modules in the usual path (/lib/modules/...)
* boot in ARMedslack
* install all the others packages via NFS
I had to make some changes to configuration files as indicated here:URL...The next step is to build a kernel and modules for omap4 by myself and use them instead of the Angstrom ones.One question: is there any kind of package manager, such as slap-get, sbopkg, etc. for Slackware ARM? If not, can I use the SlackBuilds from slackbuilds.org? How to modify them?

Dec 20, 2010I have an old Win98 program that controls my amateur radio transceiver. I want to try it in wine, so have followed Eric's instructions on a clean -current installation. When I get to the wine SlackBuild, it tells me that it needs fontforge & webcore-fonts. I am assuming that I need to install these dependencies as 32-bit, but I am not sure, so would someone use the proper baseball bat to get me on track?

Jan 27, 2010I'm back to slack after several years. I'd like to install wine. I have downloaded wine-1.1.33.tar.bz2[URL]..I am currently looking at the installation instructions. I would welcome any advice, comments or caveats that might contribute to the installation. In particular, have I made the
correct download? Another example: My preference is that the installation be made to /usr/local, since that directory is on its own partition. Will that introduce any problems?
Slackware :: Build A Complete Optimized Using Sbopkg?
Mar 27, 2011Just a question out of curiosity: Is there a build-queue that can be used with sbopkg to build a complete Slackware repository from scratch?Just asking, because the 32 bit version of Slackware is suited to run on older computers by compiling for i486 architecture. I want to know if it is possible to rebuild the complete repository with optimizations for newer architectures, so that the programs can make use of the features of newer processors, like MMX, SSE and so on.

Jul 1, 2011I have a doubt wrt to installing "Q" files . I have cloned a repo from git ..Yesterday I tried to install Libre office using sbopkg..It began with the download and gave an error asking me to retry/abort or continue with the build due to some missing package..I presently have a folder "queues" in /var/lib/sbopkg..I also downloaded another repo and placed it another folder. The problem is that in SBOpkg it is picking up only from the queue folder in /var/lib/SBOpkg/Queues. I dont know how to point to the other folder in /home/downloads/queues/ (the second repo)..I thought of trying this as neither slackbuild or the first repo is working for installing libre office..The internet connectivity is ok!

Slackware :: Updated The Packages Installed Via Sbopkg?
Jul 18, 2011I am really enjoying recently slackware. Using slackpkg and sbopkg it is so easy to keep slackware running current. Sometimes I feel like a master of Linux, which is absolutely no true. Apart of some objectives I have regarding slackware's philosophy, I have this question please. I have about 8 packages installed via sbopkg. my question.
1)Is there a way to keep these packages updated via a program? (If not I guess I am obliged to check manually for each of them.) 2) Also, sometimes when we build a package via sbopkg it is necessary to build other packages. Is there an option to install via sbopkg and the package and its dependencies required through just one command?

Mar 3, 2010I recently upgraded my -current box, and now when I try to run sbopkg I get the exact error described in the following thread:[URL].. The error fwiw is as follows:
root@catbutt:~# sbopkg
ERROR

Line

seems likely given the discussion in that previous thread that the bash upgrade (to 4.1.002) in the recent -current onslaught is responsible?

Slackware :: SBOPKG Errors Viewing Obsolete Source Cache
Apr 10, 2010I'm doing a bit of housekeeping and tidying up of programs I no longer need/use, and as some of these were installed using sbopkg I thought I would also tidy those. However when attempting to view obsolete sources via the utilities sub-menu, sbopkg seems to crash to a cli interface from the ncurses one and spews continuously the error below. This thern continues until I CTRL+C the process which of course then leaves the sbopkg pid file still showing active in /var/run. Anyone else come across this, and a possible way to prevent it.

Fedora :: Install Library's Before Installing Wine In 11?
Nov 9, 2009I recently installed Fedora 11 with VMware workstation. I downloaded the Wine file (wine-1.0.1.tar.bz2 and wine-1.0.1.tar.bz2.sign, its a source archive i think)from [URL]. Those two files are now in my flash disk. I went throught the wine user guide but they haven't explained about how to install it in detail, but i found that, "Compiling & installing Wine from source is slightly more difficult than using a package".
I went to [URL] looking for packages but again its saying, i should install some library's before building Wine and leads to [URL]. I went there & found a web page with some codes.

Slackware :: 64 Wine Running A Game Results In Wine Crash
Jun 24, 2011I have a problem running a game on a fresh Slackware64 install.
Slack version is 13.37
I've followed alien bobs instructions for a multilib environment from here:[url]
And then used sbopkg to download and compile wine version 1.2.2, which went through just fine.
After that I grabbed cabextract from sbopkg and ran this: wget [url] sh winetricks d3dx9 To get the DX9.
But, when I try to run the game, this is the error I get:
Code:
The game it self ran perfectly on the 32 bit version of Slackware, tested with 13.0. So now I think I'm missing some libs or something, but I have no clue which.
OpenSUSE :: Switch Over From A 24 Hour To A 12 Hour Format?

how to make the change? I have tried System Settings ---> Computer Administration ---> Date & Time; but I was not able to make the desired change.
Similarly, I have a digital clock widget that shows GMT + 5.5 hours and I need to change that to 12 hour format as well.

Aug 5, 2010If I set the clock to speak the time, I get this when it tries: starting kttsd failed. I've looked at the various posts, but haven't yet found an actual solution. I've tried to run kttsmgr, but for some reason the "run" dialog doesn't seem to do anything - no error, nothing. Type kttsmgr, press enter since there is not obvious other way to execute the command, and nothing happens.
Is this a module that does not come with KDE? And I give - I can't find time format anywhere. How do you change the clock that appears in the lower right corner to 12 hour instead of what appears to be default 24 hour? I don't see it in "Digital Clock Settings", and I don't see it in System Settings - Date & Time. This is a clean install of slackware 13.1, and whatever version of KDE comes with it.
