"Living Water 2.17" by ttuuxxx

#1 Post by ttuuxxx »

"Living Water" is basically a church related 2.17 puppy Variant that I have spent a very long time making, :) The Opera version is 139MB and Firefox 145MB respectfully,including java and a host of other apps plus some system files have been updated. The reason I made this version is because members of the "Church Pup" Forum have been asking for a lite version so I stepped up to the plate. I'll finish the full release description tomorrow, Its 3:44 am here :)

"Living Water 2.17" Firefox ed.

"Living Water 2.17" Opera ed.
http://www.puppylinux.ca/tpp/ttuuxxx/li ... master.iso
MD5 D53B27F62F78D928B09AEDF9BD3FEE46

I did update the wifi with the 3.0 series but some cards reported didn't work with that one but did work with the 2.0 series so you can downgrade if you have that problem by installing http://www.puppylinux.ca/pet2/ndiswrapper-1.46.pet
thanks ttuuxxx

:D I think "Living Water" is a great name.
At the moment I am practicing Buddhism
(a form of Christianity devoid of Jesus or even God) :shock:

I feel Puppy is an ideal carrier for interest specific remasterings.

This is excellent - I've tested FH and Fat-free before and I really appreciate your work.

I may be late in the discussion of ChurchPup, so I could not explain at once the symbol in the Menu button. Would you have some notes about it? (My first view reminded me about Lobster's friends :) )

Very nice as usual your work is fantastic its very fast clean and lots of graphic detail. I love ttuuxxxtv that is too cool and stream tuner as well. But most of all the faith menu is a sweet touch nicely configured. I have enjoyed your previous versions so I was really looking forward to this edition. It was no surprise to find it full of ttuuxxxness. Thanks again I know you must have spent many hours of this edition and it is a pleasure for me to enjoy your fine work. This is a winner folks help spread the news.

holy mackerel[citation needed]
Never heard this before. :)

The intersecting arcs was done
like so (when Christianity was considered a fishy religion
punishable by becoming lion fodder):
One person would casually doodle an arc on the tavern table
or in the dirt with someone they wished to test
If the arc was turned into a fish, they were Christian
(by the second person drawing a second arc)

Maybe it was from this miracle (Even God pays taxes - 'Holy Mackerel')?
Matthew 17:24-27

You can see the symbol explored on my defunct
Christian page which I have resurrected

Anyway . . .
good that your efforts are creating interest :)

thanks so much

#10 Post by strange_kiwi »

thanks so much for all of your hard work ttuuxxx. I've just begun the d/l, so should have some good operational feedback over the next day or so. how much difference do you think I'll get performance wise with full-install vs frugal? my system has 194MB if I remember rightly. Full installs have crashed in the past on this particular pc, whereas frugal installs are rock solid, albeit slow. also I tried fat free the other day on it, with goggle, but it didn't play. are there any dependancies that aren't mentioned? or does goggle perhaps need s/w decoder installed? (guessing). Either way - thanks heaps.

well no need to worry, goggles works just fine in "Living Water 2.17" if you wanted to try it on the computer i would run it via command line and it will tell you whats missing, when i made the package it was for 3.0 series I think it had 1 or 2 dependencies missing for the 2.0 series.

Well I would try the full install first and if you run into problems just tell me what happened and i'll try to find you a fix.

Hi Lobster - I have to take exception to your calling Buddhism a "form of Christianity devoid of Jesus or even God". Saying that Buddhism is a type of Christianity is like saying eating herbivovous animals is a form of vegetarianism! Both vegetarianism and animal-eating are forms of eating, but one cannot be the same as the other. Christianity is so called because it is a following of the God-man Yeshua (aka Jesus), who was called the Christ. Perhaps this was just your humour? A Christless Christianity is oxymoronic. For the record, Yeshua (Jesus) claimed to be THE Way, THE Truth, THE Life, and that there was no other way to His Father God, but through Himself. This makes the embracing of Christianity mutually exclusive from accepting alternate religeons and spiritual activity. (Sorry for hijacking your thread ttuuxxx!) Not trying to pick a fight at all here Lobster... some of my best friends are crustaceans lol, just interested in setting things straight. (PS ttuuxxx, still 4 hours to go to complete the d/l! was struggling to use bibledesktop tonight, so really looking forward to the upgrade!)

As a fish eater, I am pleased to know I am classed as a vegetarian.
:lol:
You should of course take your Lobster with a pinch of salt (and a squeeze of lemon)

It would be equally possible to say MS Windows is a type of Puppy Linux that does not use Linux or any Open Source code.
It might be possible to say something. That does not mean it makes sense or has any value. You have to strike a balance.

I would suggest that apart from the elements I have removed, the ethical and moral moderation in Christianity is very familiar to Buddhists in the 8 Fold Path.

That exception is taken by some is not so exceptional. That others have created an exceptional testament is the issue here and that is to be encouraged.

Actually this link http://biblia.com/theology/buddhism7.htm Similarities between Buddhism and Christianity is pretty good on comparing the both, they are simular in many ways.

nonsensical statements & stuff

#17 Post by strange_kiwi »

but what is the point in nonsensical statements - other than amusement?! The fact of the existence in an absolute Truth means that ultimately there will only be one right, and all other points of view (while interesting perhaps) will be wrong. That's the way it is with mutually exclusive things. If the concept of relative truth were true (oxymoronic statement), then binary code wouldn't work, and we wouldn't have any working OS or this forum! Thank God for consistency in life, that we can be assured of an absolute Universe! (Sorry, it's early - if that didn't make sense...) I am absolutely for freedom of choice, as is God. But some (binary) choices have eternal consequences, and that concerns me deeply on behalf of myself and others.

making an install leaner

#18 Post by strange_kiwi »

just had a thought ttuuxxx... when I do a full install, does it only install the drivers etc that I need? or do the others sit there in the background? (Spot the newbie.) Would there be any value in me performing a frugal install, and then remastering files, then doing a full install from the remaster? Or does a full install by definitiion keep all that stuff tidy? (having typed this out, I now suspect that would be the case.) Yes there are similarities between Buddhism and Christianity, vegetarians and meat eaters, linux and windows, men and women, kittens and puppys. I'll check out that site ttuuxxx (bookmarked it - tried to print it out - but it's so humid here that the paper wouldn't feed properly grrr) Looks like a good meal-sized comparison! Just burned your iso now... :-D

ok if your a newbie just install it the way it sits, It only loads the drivers that you actually need and removing the ones you don't need at best is dangerous. Not a good idea, because some things rely on other things etc, and basically you could break the package. its pretty small to start with:) ok next tell me what you think of "Living Water 2.17" it went from just a quick remaster to 100hrs+ to a full new church related, groundbreaking distro.lol

might have a dodgy download

#20 Post by strange_kiwi »

it hangs after installing unionfs :( It allows me to type stuff - but doesn't seem to do anything - does respond to cntr alt del reboot. Might be a dodgy download, as it did have to resume a couple times. Could I please have a MD5 for it? This is the Opera version. I'll try it on my main pc too. And what are you doing awake? lol. must be 3.30 where you are? 6.30 here in NZ.
