PizzasgoodI've mentioned here and there that I thought it would be nice if Puppy showed both the Puppy version and kernel version on the desktop automatically
I made a little script for that....Versioninfo

I found this paragraph interesting and wondered if you might be able to explain in easy terms how you achieved this.Kenny-M wrote:I have installed Puppy 4.2.1-k2.6.25.16 (from ibiblio) on a USB hard drive and it appears to work fine.
I set Puppy to save directly to sdb1 which is the USB hard drive. So I have no pup_save.2fs file.
You're welcome, Bob Dog. Thank you for taking the time and trouble to post your experience with Puppy 4.21 "Deep Thought".Bob Dog wrote:Thanks for all the work and putting up with the social strife which was of doubtful assistance.
Thanks, nitehawk. In all the drama that surrounded the release, it was easy to get caught up in the negatives without realising how many found it a positive experience. I'm glad you decided to remind me!nitehawk wrote:"DeepThought" is still one of my favorite Puppies.
It was (is) not only very classy,...but very functional, as well.
...yes,..there are others who think of "DeepThought" as their favorite Puppy (I believe Colonel Panic is still running it). Which reminds me,...as well as TEENpup,....I need to put DeepThought back on my main computer. I'm afraid I just don't care for the Ubuntu-ized Lupu. I'm sure a lot of very hard work went into it,....and it seems to be extremely popular (but it just isn't for me).I'm glad you decided to remind me!

Nope, no hard feelings between developers ... just one rabid User with the capital U. Glad you liked it. It makes the work and the grief seem worthwhile.oligin10 wrote:I know there was some hard feelings between developers, but imho this is the greatest version of puppy linux.
I did the abiword version in 4.2.1 try 2.14X it should be the same , http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=42553irishrm wrote:I've being intending for a long time to congratulate Whodo on 4.2.1. Its the only puppy which will open a large word file and retain the proper format. None of the other puppy's will do that. Example of what happens: A 259 page word file opened in 4.2.1 will render as 259 pages. In any other puppy I have tried It will render as 309 pages. This means that 4.2.1 will always have a place on my Computer regardless of which more recent version I may use.-Irishrm
Hear! Hear! I, too, whole-heartedly agree with this observation as well and think it doesn't get mentioned enough, nor do I remember to offer up my own thanks to WhoDo ( not to mention ttuuxxx as well here! ) enough for the hard work and dedication to the Puppy Community. These two men have offered up to the Community - and the world - some of the very BEST Puppy versions/puplets ever made."Anyways WhoDo is a great leader "
