Yes, it is not Lucid Pup per se that sets the initial resolution, rather it is the xorg developers. Sometimes too low, sometimes too high, but mostly right on, especially with newer video cards is my impression.Medion MD8818 lucid 499 issues
1 - the first run comes up in 800x600. Should be 1024x768
That happened for me on every lupu so far, but a quick run of the keyboard/display wizard always takes care of it. I have the same issue with Debian, Ubuntu and Mint, but I was never able to get the display set right, always gave up about a half hour into searching for an answer.
Lucid Puppy 5.0.1 - 24 May 2010
This is our last day chrisdev and it is not obvious to me unfortunately the relation between .mprc and the file you attached. I am afraid we will have to save this one for 5.0.1--look at it this way--it is first in line. thanks.mp has been upgraded in the recent puppies. The ~/.mprc config file included with Puppy is circa 2005, and is not usable, even as a guide for setting mp's configuration from within mp.
If you try to use anything from Puppy's sample config file, either you get a syntax warning, or mp quits with "Segmentation fault".
I did some research. I can provide a config file to replace the one included in Puppy. In fact, I will attach here what I'm currently using; it covers only a small amount of possible configuration settings. If it is useful, I can work up something more extensive.
mp (or mp + urxvt) is buggy compared to the mp version in Puppy 4.1.2, unfortunately.
Video problem on GX100
Hi, in addition to waiting for the wireless bug fix, I have a new problem when I try it on an old Dell GX100. The mouse doesn't match up to the window it looks like it's in. I know this sounds weird, but I've seen it on several other distros as well. You can get the mouse clicks to respond to a window, but you have to have it "pointed" to the LEFT of where you see that it should be. This is the only "puppy" that I've seen this problem on.
Also downloading 5.00RC. Great speed, thanks for this high-quality connection. Just 5 minutes to go.James C wrote:Downloading 5.00 right now.....the finish line is within sight
But I don't know if the finish line is in sight. It rather feels we're just starting on an exciting new path, so exciting in fact that no one wonders about the finish line. In Puppy Land it seems all that matters is the walking, and the fun meanwhile. What if it would never ever get finished? Let's enjoy the walk, enabled by these talented guys!

Fresh frugal installation of lupu-500. Initial setup was flawless. As with lupu-449, installed a good sample of the pets and sfs using Quickpet, all are working great. Installed gnome-games with the ppm. Also installed Barry's latest nvidia driver using Quickpet and it’s working great. As usual, I'm using zigbert's DuDE which unfortunately conflicts with Quickpet update function. Of course, there is still a problem with Abiword printing graphics to CUPS-PDF.
The Quickpet problem is the same as reported for the update function in that it froze the desktop and would not respond to any key presses or mouse movement. However, this time I loaded each program and checked it's operation along with Quickpet update and discovered that the conflicting program is DuDE. This is sad since DuDE really dresses up the jwm desktop. I'll also post this on the DuDE post so that zigbert can look into the conflict too.
Great job,
Jim

The purpose of my file: Puppy's .mprc file is not looked at by mp. It also gives 100% incorrect guidance (which was frustrating). It should be removed.
My file, residing at ~/.mp.mpsl as mp wants, could be included -- or, my file could be slightly renamed (maybe ".mp.mpsl.SAMPLE"?) to only serve as a reference.
Thank you for all your efforts.

Internet Connection
I am not able to update the Lucid Puppy, because I don't have direct internet connection. I am getting internet through Proxy settings. Is it possible to update Lucid Puppy. Moreover, as there is no direct connection, I didn't able to install any web browser. I have already download Lucid Puppy 5.00 RC for testing. Awaiting valuable solution.
Use the menu item "Support" >> "Quickpet on the Web", should possibly solve your issue.I am not able to update the Lucid Puppy, because I don't have direct internet connection.

Jim, I may revert to just opening a web browser and that's all for the update. That will fix your issue and the DuDE is too important (for me anywaysJim1911 wrote:[snip]

In my case, I just installed streamtuner-0.99.99.pet and streamripper-1.63.5.pet and tuned in to a radio station on Shoutcast, hit the record button and a directory was created in /root with the station name that contained the recorded music.
I have already done the same thing on an earlier version of Puppy and made a music cd that displayed the title and artist on Players capable of displaying that info.
