I had one somewhere, but can't put my hands on it at the moment. Pizzasgood will have the complete list, but I can tell you that the current version includes:
There may be others but that's the majority of the contents. Cheers _________________ Actions speak louder than words ... and they usually work when words don't! SIP:whodo@proxy01.sipphone.com; whodo@realsip.com Last edited by WhoDo on Mon 26 Mar 2007, 08:38; edited 1 time in total |

Thanks Warren
Java Runtime is 1.5.0_11 Do not forget to turn it on (for those trying). It is under preferences / advanced in Seamonkey then refresh and test here http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml _________________ Puppy WIKI |

Just a quick note before going to bed. I've run RC2 for a while, trying this and that, and it seems nicely stable. Confirming that gaim2 is definitely the executable for the IM client, and that performs flawlessly. On doing an "upgrade" on the save file where I worked on the JWM switching, my scripting worked well. I notice the righthand end of the taskbar on JWM uses the ice icons and layout, open and close arrows, etc. Nice touch that
It takes significantly longer for the JWM switch to take effect, compared with RC1. The other direction seems about the same, and here we drop the X server after all.

Neither Firefox nor Gimp was in the Menu, but they both opened from the console.
"fixmenu" fixed the menu. I shut down, saving to the DVD, rebooted, and both Firefox and Gimp are on the menu. I haven't had time to play around with anything very much. What should happen when I click gtkam (in the Graphic menu)? Nothing happens now.
I'll try that next, when I get time. The first time I opened Gimp, it was from the console. Everything seemed to go all right, but left this residue in the console:

I am totally frustrated, yesterday I started at the first post on this thread and attempted to download only to have an error at arround the 68 - 70 MB mark. I tried every link posted and each time the same error came up again and again. The only link that I did not have the patience to try was MiHD.net as although I am on broadband it was going to take over an hour to load. All attempts were made on 2.14. I have a beta copy of 2.15 Office so nothing ventured I tried again and failed at the first hurdle. Any suggestions what I may try next ? Ian |

You could try my mirror at http://micro-hard.homelinux.net/puppy/download_iso/puppy-215CE-RC2-Standard.iso I'm on an adsl2+ connection, so my uplink speed is a bit under 1MB/s and my ISP does not include my uploads as downloads when calculating my bandwidth. Anyway I have only 2 days of this month left 
The checksum is in the same directory and it is also the same as that on the official sites. I have burned from a copy of that ISO and checksum was fine. Let me know how you get on.

It appears KompoZer is redundant as it's included in both web_215.sfs and pgs_215.sfs. See Release Details for the current applications list. Perhaps it should be removed from the pgs_215.sfs?
Download one of the following download managers Many of these (aria, for example) supports download resume and automatic MD5 and CRC checking. _________________ Joe D. |

Ian use Menu / internet / Xwget in 2.14 It is more reliable as a downloader

I am pleased to say that I was able to at long last download the RC2 and OO and Web .sfs files. In a fit of frustration I totally gave up on Puppy and went back to XP only to find that the expletive deleted thing downloaded immediately. I had hoped that I could have kept everything in house but I think that I have got things right so far. Tronkel advised "Copy your sfs file to the same folder that your pup_save file is in - usually /mnt/home and to reboot" Is that all there is to it as I can not seem to find anything showing that either Opera or Open Office are available to me. Looking at the installer there appears to be a shortage of pet packages and nothing is listed for Opera or OOo. How do I find them ? WhoDo is advised that if the gem game is missing in the final offering that he should take to the hills. She who must be obeyed has got hooked on it and it is more than my life is worth if it is not there. Failure will have her heading in your direction and that will not be a pretty sight. Things keep on looking better and better, keep up the good work everyone. Ian |

Run fixmenus from a console and restart your window manager. That should have the applications appearing in your menu.
Ah, so SHE's the one? We knew someone was using it, but were not quite sure who that one person was! 
The gem game is available as a download from PETget (install on your desktop) or from the PSI repositories. I promise it will download a whole lot quicker than me restoring it to the Final release.

Wow Lobster, I had no idea wget was so powerful. Definitely give it a try for download resuming since it's already included. Here's an excellent article on it's use. Specifically this section will be useful to you (I removed the long url that messes the forum up):

Many thanks WhoDo Fixmenus worked a treat and Open Office now available. I went back to the Welcome to Puppy RC1 page and clicked on Opera browser where it displayed Opera 9.1 on Puppy but on further investigation I was informed the page was not available. Looks like the link to the pet is broken. Looked for the gem game but similarly could not find the item. Can you please direct me to the promised land ? Thanking you in anticipation Ian |
