I did a lot of experiences with different wm's on some slackware-based distros and slackware himself. Now that I've switched to puppy slacko, I only use JWM. Because it works. :wink:

the [??] means most often that your ffmpeg is compiled from svn and are not one of the official releases. ffmpeg -version will tell you exactly the date of the build. I don't remember, but I guess 5.3 should be good... it is what is in wary 5.3 delivered: ffmpeg version git-2011-10-01-78f08c0 When ...

Hi killmove,

I think, for your box it doesn't matter, which puppy do you choose...they all will be fitting perfect. Because of my own "history" of using slackware, I started just with slacky and I'm very happy with it.
