"Places" is one of the e17 extra modules.Please look at the 12 post on the first page of this thread. When I update e17 I will try and include as many of the extra modules that will work without crashing e17.

Sorry I dont know what version of e17 moonos is using.

Mr. A I have never used Grub4DOS . I dont know anything about it.

Pri I understand what you are saying . But in all of the macpup's going all the way back to the first one Prit built we have had a Usb icon on wbar and now a usb icon on the ibar to launch pmount.All of your drives and partitions are accessible from there.


I have uploaded another theme .pet called Fox-2 . It will give you two animated backgrounds and two themes. Imago-macpup.edj and Megan-Foz3.edj This will give you the Blue/Black look from macpup foxy 2.0 and Foxy e17 . Both of those themes are based on themes By ZaZoOo from :

Mr. A wrote:I'm having a problem booting this with my usual frugal setup. My Dell Latitude C400 doesn't have a CD drive and can't boot to USB, so I put the frugal files for Puppy installs in the root of my only partition (ntfs for running Windows XP). Grub4DOS lets me set up my grub menu in windows, and this method works fine for Puppy 4.21, Puppy 4.3, and Macpup Opera 061. Not so for Macpup Foxy 3.0 though.
Never mind, I fixed it. My original download of the iso must've been corrupted. That'll teach me to check the checksum in the future!

Looks great! I love the Macpup look and feel!

You can get a GTK2 theme that looks a lot like e17 here:

Let me explain about the battery module. The e17 module in this build of e17 maxed out the cpu so I removed it. I have added a script (with alot of help from MU) to have puppy check the battery for you. If you are using a laptop click on the battery icon and it will run the script for you.

My reason for asking is that users on dial-up cannot obtain the
ISO using a browser. To download something of this size requires
software which can resume a download, because a dial-up
session is slow and timelimited.

We ask that everyone download through our web site so we can balance the load between our two servers. During the first two weeks of a new release we get a ton of hits.( I am not joking) If there is a lot of direct linking going on we can' t balance thing out and one of our servers will crash. NOT GOOD !! So if you cant handle that send prit1 a pm for help. Thanks.

Any chance you can share the battery script here?
I really could use it for my puplet. If you can post it here, so I don't need to download the full macpup iso.

Thank you very much in advance,

Christian

The fact that you're almost beside yourself with excitement, Runtt, would explain why i'm seeing two of you there :lol: :lol:

But it's a fantastic response that Macpup's getting...Prit must be pretty pleased, too :)
