Two bad developments for me:
1. Yahoo refused to accept GAIM as a chat client.
2. Ayttm would not connect to Yahoo servers

Has anyone successfully chatted @Yahoo with Ayttm?

EDIT: Argh, ttuuxxx's Classic Pup 2.14X is the only Puppy I could get to do Yahoo Chat. Meebo, that is.

If you all are getting bored waiting for Ttuuxxx to come back, I could use your help testing Fluppy. It has most of the bugfixes that 4.3.2 has, plus a bunch of new stuff. I got a lot of inspiration from Ttuuxxx's work.

What is Fluppy and where can we download it?

Thanks, I have an old PC with a monitor that max screen is 640x480 - so this could be ideal ; -)

Hello everybody,
I'm a newbie and am running a frugal install.
I have just moved from 4.3.1 to 4.3.2
Here are my experiences:
1. Cannot use the pubsafe.2fs from 4.3.1... hence I could not move some of my internet bookmarks and other saved settings.
2. Desktop icons loaded OK when booted from live CD but only showed generic icons after frugal install.
3. New SeaMonkey is excellent... it stops the flash programmes from loading, hence making web pages load faster and uses less resources.
4. But interestingly, some other sites without flash lags when loading and other sites like www.airasia.com would cause SeaMonkey to crash.
5. When editing the "preferences" in SeaMonkey the display of dialog boxes lags for a few seconds after the tab is selected.

I can setup my bookmarks again, I can live with the generic icons on the desktop because I really love the function in SeaMonkey that stops flash programs from running in the web pages.
Is this SeaMonkey 2.04 or is this a Puppy 4.3.2 tweak?
Why does SeaMonkey crashes on certain sites?
Why does SeaMonkey lag or use a lot of resources in certain sites?

I hope someone can point me to what I did wrong in the setup because I do not experience these problems with 4.3.1... except that Seamonkey 2.0.0 loads all the flash programs.

Should we continue to wait for this to be finished, or simply move on?
