I am so happy to be using Puppy Slacko 5.3.3 FINAL.

I downloaded the PAE version as it is slightly more secure (apparently).

Have been using the other version during the late beta/RC
- with no faults in day to day running . . .

Mick has worked on Lucid (with Larry) and two versions of Slacko.
Slacko is mature, stable and up to date. A solid Puppy expression and base and great release. Woof. Woof.

I hope some with credit will provide Mick with a donation (bottom of page)
He has worked hard for us:

Always contribute to Puppy and open source, money, time, skill, questions, propaganda, graphics, support for the ungoogled . . .

I have wasted all my money on an Ipad [don't hate me - I am weak and easily taken in by Eve and her Apples . . .]

However as recompense I am trying to comprehend other ARM fruit for Puppy . . . The Raspberry Pi

I am very pleased that pemasu is also using woof2 (up to now only Barry and Mick have) and developing upup

Incidentally Mick, I downloaded from one of the European servers
- so fast, under 1 minute. This is like the old days of Puppy fast downloads . . . Many thanks. Good will to at all at shed HQ

Simply Slacko
Firmly Puppy

Lobster says: "I downloaded from one of the European servers "

But I see no link to that sserver you talk about.
Iblio takes some 30 minutes here.

So what are you talking about?

Haha now I know. You used this or the Greece one.

But I see no link to it in your post. Yes took 6 seconds compared
to 30 minutes for Iblio

[Lobster]

I used the Netherlands mirror [scroll down for mirrors]

Glad the Greek one is fast too

Thank you Micko! Slacko was the first Puppy which my Lenovo s205 it works! Do not know just where to get the driver for the ATI HD 6310, everything else is very good!
Sorry for my English, I do not know the language.
Спасибо из России!

Slacko is looking good.

I compiled qemu-arm for it, if anyone is interested

SLACKO-PAE and FATSLACKO, both, see the 6GB RAM available and embraces it into the Puppy filesystem.

Both are very fast and stable distro implementations. In fact, it appears that the performance, of everything SLACKO has, is equal to that found in FATSLACKO. This is an example of the wonderful packaging you have done for these distros for this community. We have world-class stuff.

Excellent, excellent work. Thanks a million times, over!

Thank you for this great distro! I have one problem,ppm is not work.
Here is the message from the console "error gtk dialog: error in line 44,near token default: syntax error, aborting"
I have problem,no sound in Puppy. I have sound blaster card,sometimes I have sound,sometimes not,but right now,no sound. In Alsamixer there is SB selected,and in multiple card wizard I selected SB. I ran alsawizard and selected SB as default card,but with no use.

Thank you very much!

Just wanted to congrat Mick and All who worked so diligently upon this Puppy version to make it what it now is. Awesome job people! I have it running frugal on my DELL 2400 with 512megs of RAM ( 1.6gigs total ) with all the various window managers/taskbars I normally use, along with all the normal software I install, and it's been completely flawless.

Truly a great job all! Congratulations all around once again!

Cheers/Amicalement,

Just done a frugal install on my Thinkpad T60p- display works at the resolution that I wanted, rather than the higher resolution that was all that earlier versions (Wary and Exprimo as well) would give.
Installed Mesa driver when invited.
Can print to my printer, which hangs off of a Windows XP machine- smbc worked.
Really great Puppy!

Mick,

Thanks for your humungous efforts and this superb release. Slacko has now become my “top dog” and I have revised my signature panel accordingly.
