Hi This sounds really good. If you can get a working puppy with openbox for the aspire I'd love to try it. How is the battery working with Puppy? The times I have tried booting 4.11 off usb it has seemed to drain far faster than when running Linpus - returned to a simple XFCE state! Time varies but ...

Hi Muggins

I have moved to Puppy 4, partly due to your VYM package, and am running openbox and lxpanel. Wordsearch installs fine, runs fine however it kills lxpanel when it runs! Any ideas?
I'll play with some other set ups and see i f the same thing happens.

Cheers
Kevin

Hi Muggins

Looks workable. I prefer the wordsearch creator's design though as it is really clear and straight forward.

Two days to go!!!!

Cheers

Hi Muggins

These look great! Sadly I am not yet using puppy in the classroom if I was then these would be good to use. I use puppy at home as my main system but only played with it in school :( Do let me know of any other educational software you find!

Cheers

Thank you for this. Works under NOP 3 with QT4 and does exactly what it needs to do to make my life as a primary teacher easier :D At this point of term that is really important.

Hi

Thanks for taking the time to create this enlightenment pup. First time I've experienced such an animated desktop :) Interesting and very tempting to play with. A 3.01 based edition would be great.

I am sorry that there has not been more interest. Do not get disheartened!
