That was a frustrating road for gposil and others. So close and yet so far. See this thread

Hi guys and gals,

<rant>
I got my self a new box on Wednesday. Asus mobo, nforce chipset (forget the model number), AMD X2 processor and a gforce video card. It was more or less to celebrate this release :lol: . Plus I have been using the old Athlon XP2100+ box for the last 6 years and thought .. why not?

I also decided to download Mandriva .. ( :shock: ).. ha.. yeah Mandrake converted me to Linux many moons ago and in their defence they were arguably the first newby friendly distro targeting windows refugees.

I have been in Mandriva for the past couple of hours (not now though). I tested Jemimah's Puppeee script for super easy installation of Puppeee from any distro and hopefully offered her some useful feedback. In the mean time I was playing with Puppeee on my Eee-701SD and Lupu on my son's Lenovo R61e Thinkpad.

I discovered Barry's announcement on his blog and that's when I posted above .. "We've gone official.."

Still in Mandriva I decided to download lupu-500.iso from Ibiblio... (thanks ibiblio for hosting our files) but it was terribly slow, I think Barry mentioned that yesterday. So I checked the Australian mirror Aarnet. It was down, some network issue. :( . Five minutes later I checked again and it was back up with an apology mentioning the outage. (Thanks Aarnet too). I grabbed the iso in about 10 minutes.. :) ..then went to burn it .. still in Mandriva, but, no burning app!!! :evil: . (Um, nearly a 700 meg iso with no burner??? I remember Mandrake-9 had everything! It was on a mag cover CD, I had no chance to download 700 meg on dialup at the time! Ziggy, give them pburn please, It will make for more Puppy converts :wink: ) . Well I opened the software installer and installed k3b, the KDE burner app, hmm.., much like Pburn but about 10 times the size (with dependencies). I burnt my pristine Lucid Puppy 5 CD and am now here typing this rant.
</rant>

Now enjoying my Lupu. :D

Cheers

RE: Apt-get and Synaptic. I think it would be best to concentrate on getting Apt-get working and usable from the terminal, and after some experience with that, then get Synaptic working. Apt-get is easy to use, Synaptic is just a luxury.

I just installed Foxit via quickpet. It downloaded and installed as expected but when I tried to view a PDF with it, it closed down. :(

Rebooted a couple of time and tried a couple of different PDF just in case one was crook, nope same problem.

Anyone else having the same problem?

Very likely you are running your xorgwizard with a color depths of 16 bit. Foxit crashes with anything less than 24.

Puppy 5.0 torrents

http://linuxtracker.org/index.php?page= ... 3a1d9289f6

http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/5564514 ... d_Puppy%29

The Piratebay torrent is seeding from my Windows box and the Linuxtracker one from my Puppy 5 laptop.

Edit: The Piratebay torrent is active and there are 16 peers currently connected. I'm only able to upload at 60k so it will be a while for multiple seed are active in the swarm.

Very slick

#1012 Post by drongo »

playdayz and 01micko (and others),

This is fabulous, tried the browser selector and Ubuntu repositories. Both seem to have worked without a hitch.

Pretty to look at, everything seems to work, haven't had to drop to a command line for anything. Are you sure this is based on Puppy? (Just kidding Barry, all your hard work is finally paying off. I can't see anything competing with Puppy now.)

Now we've got a browser choice screen even the EU can't complain.

Posted from Lupu-500 as is traditional. (Good name too, sounds like a wolf of some sort.)

Even Skype with video is working. It's been a while since video worked.

I just can't break it.

My HP Photosmart 3180 is even working. I did have to install hpijs-3.10.2.pet though. The scanner (Xsane) also works.

Really Really good job.

MD5

#1014 Post by murmelbahn »

Guys, which MD5 is correct? The one from here http://puppylinux.org/wikka/LucidPuppy (f81e3d4743de4a98af33424e6f8f3c53) or the one given further up in this thread (e85a6b08e52c551871c84daefa9f8695)?

Anyway, looking forward to the Puppy 5 experience ... it will be good I'm sure!

Hey, a new version :D
I already posted link to local forum ;)

BTW, offtopic I see that dpup and kde are mentioning in the topic I recently made puplet so who wants to try: LINK
Even though gposil is away I'm using dpup since the last beta and will probably remain my puppy version for some time.

Correct me if I'm wrong but, md5 of the downloaded torrent indicates that it is the first (RC1) of the lupu-500.iso's that's being seeded. I guess it's only the release notes left out, though .....

Used the piratebay torrent (national heroes here in my country) and am seeding at approx. 120kB.

Well, I get these results so md5sums are definitely different
First one is from link mick0 gave and second one from downloaded lupu, so is this official release or RC then?

I am confirming md5sums right now. AFAIK the ones in the firs message in this thread are correct. I think maybe what I did with the multiple rc's caused confusion.

So we have RC seeding then?
'Cause iso doesn't match md5 from first thread as you can see
