posted yesterday in general puppy forum, without reply yet, so trying this forum Im just curious whether or not there is a pemasu project yet developing a puppy version of latest ubuntu ? ubuntu "saucy salamander" is about a month old... interesting only in that, usually, there is a puppy...

Had to try the "broken" PPM. Dpup Wheezy live pfix=ram........ installed Inkscape from the main Debian repo. Worked here. EDIT: As of this writing, there is nothing wrong with PPM or other here... rather, it is the recurring problem I have with 'cobwebs'... after several sessions... Im no...

Might possibly have something to do with repository changes made when Wheezy went from Testing to Stable.What was Debian thinking ........releasing a stable version of Wheezy (Debian 7.0). since Wheezy (the debian original) is fairly new itself...

Complete noob, but what I do know is that Jejy69 made a Slackware thing with Gslapt.

If I`m not mistaken, and pemasu correct me if I`m wrong... Any Ubuntu based distro. should be able to use apps. from close releases. And I think Ubuntu Multiverse and Universe packages should always work. The package type shouldn`t matter at all ( .pet, .deb, .sfs, etc. ). Im assuming you have repl...

Thanks for the review - it feels to me as if Firefox and Thunderbird are complicating the simple - trying to compete with Explorer and Chrome I suppose. I guess for now I will stay with Seamonkey - it is familiar - and just works. I strip anything having to do with Google off my computer as I want ...

s-n-i-p edoc - I have also had some troubles with Firefox, and, looked for other browsers... problem being, Firefox is considered the defacto linux browser at all, getting the most usage and development... has the most features, add-ons, whatever. Iceweasel was, I believe, the official debian "...

soundNICK, Exprimo is (IMHO) the strongest-going puplet I've seen and I think it has a very bright future ahead - it could be the next mainline Puppy. But ... I believe it's just the beginning . It has endless potential! Before you give it the warm compliments it deserves, let's think of what the f...
