Bug alarm for the not English:

The 2fs or 4fs pupsave file will only be created if you reboot or shutdown saluki in its original language. When the interface is switched to (in my case) Dutch, the naughty dog refuses to create one!

Saluki is now pretty much feature-complete. I will do one more bugfix release and probably call it good for a while unless major problems are found. My plan is to work on package requests until my new job starts.

A huge kudos and thanks should be going out to akash_rawal for building the pup-volume-monitor that makes the desktop drive icons possible. This is a beautiful piece of work and other lightweight distros are going to be jealous if they ever find out about it. I think it’s pretty stable now – anyway it’s working perfectly for me now. This replaces most of what was in /sbin/pup_event_frontend_d.

I built midori 0.4.6 against the latest stable webkit. It’s probably still not perfect.

I removed streamtuner – I guess not too many people use it. It’s in the repo if you want it.

I didn’t build a new devx yet. I want to build it with the sfs builder so I can include perl and python without causing issues with dependency checking. It should be fine to use the saluki 022 devx with saluki 023. I should have the new devx ready for saluki 024.

Bug reports should go to the Bugs and Suggestions section of the Saluki forum.

As usual boots quickly on Acer netbook.

Screen >> 1024 x 600

Right click on network >> on toolbar for Frisbee....good.

Browser works fine.
Won't use Flash for Youtube...
had to download Seamonkey.

Sound was awful...fixed after selecting Realtek
and adjusting xnoise volume as well.

Bad habit....media player won't turn off when playing an mp3.
No wonder it's called xnoise.

OK ...finally see it >>> RHS on taskbar.

Still annoying for a newbie.
Reminds me of Puppy 4.3.1

Every time you opened it the media icon stayed.
Played 3 times = 3 icons

"""""""

Still would like a browser on the desktop.

Not immediately apparent where I can add it.

Yeah...found >>right click in file manager..add to desktop

But 4 newbies????????????

You did see the ++++ ICYOS video didn't you...of Saluki.

Chris.

Looks like that only the midori_NLS-0.4.6-i486.pet had made it to the repo. Not the exe file.
(more after ISO re-download Wink

)

LatterOne thing that is probably a bug of Volume mounter is that after suspend/resume it shows the swap partition of an SDcard on the desktop. This might be due to the kernel I use (3.3.8-olpc) or not.
After suspend/resume also shows on the desktop look0, 1, 2 etc. Basically whatever /dev is in "df".
None of these was the case till 022

Also when booting from a USB does not offer to create the save file in other devices (SDcard in this case). Only boot device. Is this a feature or a bug?

Okay then, when trying to get pets with Midori you get a blank box -- so you just press Enter and your download does alright. So I'm next using SeaMonkey 2.7.2 doing a stupid distro download from some jerk-linux and I double click the Home icon and kapow Seamonkey disappears along with 45 minutes of several megabytes. (no torrent was avail) -- We'll try Firefox now.

LATER: Hey don't mistake me, this is really special. I think it beats the hell out of 96% of any other non-pup's. The file system with all the easy drag/drop stuff makes it obviously a keeper. Firefox is quite stable & I got the Flash pet so I can watch Icyos and maybe Spatry wank on and on. I'm going to forget about distrowatch for awhile, thanks Jemimah.
