About JWM Config problem, I get the same missed files error in 214x4. I attach the picture about this error. Thanks in advance.

Well it works in the menu, like it should and your starting it from the wrong location and wrong name, Smile

/usr/local/jwmconfig/jwmConfigMgr

they did have it located at /usr/local/apps//jwmconfig/j but I moved it to where it normally is Smile

I tried to download from the gposil site too and 4 attempts failed at just under 50 mb.

The other link worked fine though. Very Happy

Sadly I couldn't access the gposil site at all when I tried recently. Is it still up, or is there a problem with the server?

Thanks, but I don't have a fast enough connection to be able to download a Puppy iso from home though I'd like to try your Puplet sometime. it looks good.

I tried to access gposil for the database (pppd 0.6b), sorry I should have made that clear.

Right now i'm compiling gcc-4.3.3 the same one used in Jpup, I figured that it would be good to use the same one as Jpup, So I downloaded the sources from the ubuntu repo, Man thats a big working directory, the Directory is 700MB, sure does take a lot of memory when compiling live, lol
I'll keep ya informed how it went Smile

Really, Really Nice one, ttuuxxx!
Very nice-looking new toy to play with. Very Happy

I had missed the nifty 2.14R altogether (came into the puppy world first with 2.16). Smile

Been playing around with X4 the whole day now.

Regarding the JWM config error:
Menu>Desktop>JWM configuration runs first after "Refresh menu" has been executed. (There is, though, a redirection script in /usr/sbin which should be changed to point to the new jwm-config location)
But, only the shell; no settings can be changed.

Thanks for the great feedback MinHundHettePerro Smile

Still compiling gcc have a look at the size of the folder, OMG. I have 98MB of ram left and its still going, I guess I'll have to make one of my 16GB pupsave files to compile this, lol

If I compiled that my laptop would catch on fire....

well it went to 1611MB and had a fortran error, should of disabled it and a few other features, well it looks like a good compile, I'll try it out, if not then I'll redo it, Thats the largest compile I've done to date, My previous record was QT, that was a bit over 1GB, then Seamonkey around 700MB.
Note to self, use a pupsave, lol

Uh, some suggestions about uploading/downloading at puppy2.org:

- we can keep posting new pup_214R.sfs, as the testers should be familiar with frugal install (?)

- the drivers file can be downloaded by new testers here:
puppy2.org/repo/zdrv_214R.sfs

And download accelerators - I've heard that this is the way to kill a server quickly. Very Happy
