Just to let you guys know that a whole breed of Puppy has just arrived. Puppy 2.15CE Standard Edition RC2 now comes with some really interesting configuration options as follows:

Standard Edition RC2 + web_215.sfs + OOo_215.sfs = Office Edition

Standard Edition RC2 + web_215.sfs + pgs_215.sfs = Graphics Edition

Standard Edition RC2 + web_215.sfs + devx_215.sfs + fltkc++_215.sfs = Developer Edition

Standard Edition RC2 + all of the above (to a limit of 3 added sfs files) = Jumbo Edition

MU has mirrored the above files here:

PkaG will shortly post his mirror as well. RC2 is a bug fix update for RC1, so I strongly recommend moving to the newer version, especially if you were experiencing problems with running Xvesa.

Enjoy! Razz

I am using RC2 to type this but could not download the web_215.sfs, keeps coming up with "403 forbidden" error and the same on the mirror sites.Enjoying using this version,thanks to all concerned.

Before I needlessly consume 106MB of someone's bandwidth, I would like to know the exact identity of the Open Office which is being offered as OOo_215.sfs.

Is this identical to the Open Office in Puppy-215CE-Office-Alpha.iso?

...or is this the eagerly-awaited "slimmed-down Open Office 2.10" which a certain esteemed Puppyist from the great state of Texas "has been volunteered to do"?

...or is it something else?

Not to toot my own horn, well maybe a bit, but I'm actually more excited about pgs_215.sfs, which contains more graphics software than even Grafpup does. It has a very extended version of Gimp, the newest Inkscape, newsest stable dia, two 3d modeling programs, two ray tracers, import from digital cameras (both gui and cli) and the latest ufraw for converting professionsal raw photos. PreviouslyKnownAsGuest also contributed to it, which was a big help and eased the workload a lot.

WhoDo hit the nail on the head about OpenOffice. Once I cut it down and compressed it I only managed to get it down to about 76MB, with only the Writer module left in and a few other features left out like the gallery. But also I have to clarify, I'm not compiling the source myself, I'm just repackaging the official binaries from openoffice.org and doing some simple configuration to make the experience better (like forcing it to use the gtk interface sothat fonts are legible).

BTW I'm back in town so I'll be getting back to work on things shortly.

OK, I downloaded the iso's and extracted the sfs files, put them in the root of my hd, where my save file resides. Nothing happened.
I'm feeling helpless and hopeless. Could someone give me Dummy instructions?
Thanks.
