Not sure where to post this, hope this thread will do.

Minor bug reports concerning dpup-477beta1-2.6.27.4.iso

(1) I wrote here of a problem with BMP

(2) Also, I find that if I create a new file in Geany then click on SAVE
the directory listing that comes up for me to scroll through has
all double entries, so that a 30 file directory lists on 60 lines,
comprising 30 identical pairs. Only that initial listing has the
duplicates, as soon as I click and manoeuver through to another
directory the behaviour rights itself.

If BMP has been dropped from current Dpup then the above
bug vanishes into irrelevance. Smile

I am certain that I have encountered that Geany bug in another
derivative, but can´t recall which.

For now, as far as I know, 477 is on a break as development moved to 482 and now 484 Beta 1. However, the 477 thread is
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=44582 .

I haven't had any problems with BMP lately so it's probable that the problem was solved in one of the subsequent releases.

HTH.

Just a note for those "dPup" searchers found this thread before finding the one for dPup 484 testing, and wondered where everyone went.

The dPup 482beta testing thread starts here:

Hello!
Thanks for this usuable release of Puppy! (I was testing now the dpup-484.b4.)
Special thanks for including last rev. FF-3.6 & Geany-0.18. And your idea include to puppy' environment the Control Center (and may be it's your developing too?), -- this is usuable tools, who incapsulated many tabs. And very good is idea to using separate network tools: Internet Connection Wizard and Pwireless2, who can be uses on currently need control of the PC & user's preference (of course, it's a part of other features the CC) -- it's VERY good idea!
But I find a bug of starting screensaver. See this screen' photo please. (Currently I cannot say nothing about it.)
And I think, you can resolving too of oldest puppy' problem, -- using poor modules of Xclock & Xarchiver. For it replace please the Xlock, and update please Xarchiver into tarballs, who I was attaching below.
Note. I use it many times, and I need many times manually replace it -- at begin 2009, from Puppy-4.1x, to the last releases of Puppy' distros... Sad

(Or simply replace the Xlock into /usr/local/apps as one-app-file.)
It is need, because this software components by Barry's REPO is workablen't & usuablen't about one year...
PS. Excuse me, I findn't forum' theme for dpup-484...
PPS. Hmm, this forum permitn't attaching a tarballs such as xxx.tgz (?!) Excuse me too!
