Applications / Re: Test build of dooble with qt5
« on: December 26, 2023, 03:20:30 pm »
works very good here
stable and very fast compared to the previous build (faster than firefox)
Hi Dave, I can confirm what Remy wrote. I tested all versions and so far this is the best one, loads faster than the previous versions, closes well as well.
Thank you for your continuing efforts!

Hi there and thank you for all the replies.
To put it more precisely: there is no problem when it comes to loading the page. It loads well and ( as a subscriber) I can log in. I literally meant that I can't read any articles. I can click on any header  but then nothing happens at all. It seems like no links are recognized by dooble, so there is nothing to open, with a few exceptions.

For the german readers:
Hallo und vielen Dank für die vielen Antworten.
Um es genauer zu sagen: Es gibt kein Problem mit dem Laden der Seite. Sie lädt relativ schnell und (als Abonnent) kann ich mich einloggen. Ich meinte wörtlich, dass ich keine Artikel lesen kann. Ich kann auf eine beliebige Überschrift klicken, aber dann passiert gar nichts. Es scheint, als ob dooble keine Links erkennt, so dass sich bis auf wenige Ausnahmen nichts öffnen lässt.

Hi, would someone try this site with dooble:
https://www.sueddeutsche.de/

This is the site of a major german newspaper, and it does not work anymore with dooble.
Rather at the top there is a row of with subjects like  Ukraine, Fussball-WM, Politik......
This works meaning I can choose a subject and a new page loads but this is all I can do. Not a single article can be opened or read?

Thank you
Holger

Hi, installed the new release today but ran in a lot of trouble.
So first question here: did anyone try a fresh install on real hardware with snap choosen as video driver.
I tried to install on an lenovo x201s with snap but in the second phase of the installation the system constantly crashe. Seems to be a problem with snap. I was able to install using gengradd, then installed snap from the iso, same crash. Switched back to VGA, then installed snap from a previous version, worked?
As the x201s seems a little bit tricky I would like to know if anyone else has the same problem before opening a ticket.

I did another install on a T400 (complete fresh install, choosing SNAP as video driver leads to the same crash in the 2. phase of the installation, so probably a bug.

Hi Dave,
on the new install I first had to install qt5 using anpm, then I installed the dooble version from anpm too but did not start it. Instead I replaced it with your most recent version, so yes, this was a completely new profile.
By the way, yes qwant light loads slowly in dooble, loads a lot faster in firefox, but I like this search engine. I even defined it as the seacrh engine to use in the search bar of dooble.

Hi Holger, the versions of Panorama and Doodles Screensaver in 5.0.8 support DPMS to turn off the screen

Hi Dave,
thank you for the hint. I was brave enough to install panorama, and yes it works like you said. Still would like to be able to dim the screen using fn+ function keys like before. So have to consider what to do. Do you know whether the knew kernel is supported by older previous acpi versions?

Hi Holger, it seems to be a common problem where the first tab does not load whatever you try to load. Create a new tab and use that and it is fine. No idea what the problem is except it seems to happen to most of us.
Work around, start Dooble with your homepage as a parameter,
Code: [Select]
dooble https://lite.qwant.com/
works fine here, simplest is to add it to the program object.
Hi Dave,

I had tried this before, but it only works one time when closing and rebooting dooble, the next time I start dooble I have the same problem as before.
I now installed the new release of arcaos on the x201s. I have a lot of problems with this relase, but dooble works fine. I can set the homepage in dooble, it loads every time i start dooble, it even shuts down every time with no problems.

If you do not run SNAP use Panorama and not Gengradd. Panorama provides better performance.
Hi Roderick,
I know performance is better with panorama but there are other reasons for me to use snap:
This is a laptop and power management is bad enough with arcaos ( as it was with ecs too). So unsing snap at least gives me some possibilities, for example DPMS and the option to turn off the screen after a while. Withe the last release of arcaos I was able to dim the screen with fn +function keys (Acpi related I guess). I don not do to many things which would need a better vidoe performance.
Apart from this the question is why I am not longer able to install using snap although snap can be selected as vidoe driver in the setup.

Hi Dave, thamk you for the new release.

Installed today on one of my machines (x201s) and found a strange issue.
I had your previous release installed before but never noticed this: When setting a Homepage in settings-display-home the homepage does not load after dooble has started. It seems to load, but then I get the message *the page could not be loaded* (previously I had a blank page set as homepage). I switched back to you last release, deleting all dooble directories before starting dooble, same result. If I click on the homepage icon after the error message the page is loaded at once.
On my second machine (x61) I have your previos release installed, same homepage set, works very well, loads the page without any problem.
I played around with dooble on the x201s, trying different pages as hompage.  It seems that when changing the hompage, closing and restarting dooble, the hompage is loaded once. Afterwards, after closing and restarting I again see the error message as mentioned with 1 exeption
The page I usually define as homepage is
https://lite.qwant.com/
The only page that works on the x201s installation  is
https://www.spiegel.de/

Any idea what could be the cause for this?

Thank you once again for your work!

Holger

Regarding Nextdoor.com, Displaying the login page is trivial. Actually logging in is needed to derive any of the gain of using their website.

eBay and PayPal can actually log in and do some things, but not the things I'd normally do on those web sites.

This is not meant as criticism of the dooble porters/developers. I'm documenting what is broken at this time. I'm hopeful that development will continue and improvements will be made.

Hi Neil, did not think you were criticizing, sorry if my reply sounded like that! I just wanted to stress the fact that everyone of us is having different experiences with dooble for many various reasons. I just feel lucky and happy to be able to do the few things I like to do when using a browser, but it looks like I am having luck and I do not know why some things work here at least to some extent.

Hi Neil,

this is what I get when opening, for example, nextdoor.com. At least no blank page, same with paypal or ebay. I played around with ebay a little bit, I am able  to start a search, but then things slow down
Over all, David's last version of the qt5 dooble is a great improvement for me and my needs. I must admit that I mainly stick to only 3 or 4 sites which I visit daily, but these work well.

Hi Dave,
tried your new build on both my machines. On the first one I once again had to delete .dooble in the home directory (seeing the same trap as mentioned before deleting). Now this release works fine, I believe it is the fastest release concerning loading so far and seems to be very stable.
On my second machine everything worked right out of the box.
Thank you!

Hi Dave,
this worked, but now the previous versions crash with the same trap, very strange indeed.

Hi Dave,
had marked the dlls to load high previosly. so this can't be the problem.  I tried on another laptop with ArcOS and there the new release works. Actually both installations are the same, but I will check once again.
Thank you for your reply
