G'day oldyeller,
Very impressed with a Frugal install of your alpha-FluxPup.
My standard sfss and pets work well, plus sym links to run my Seamonkey and LibreOffice from a data partition.
Very minor triviality:
Spelling error on the "Install" button of the top bar (not 'Intall')
Will try a Full install later or with the next Greek letter version.

HI oldyeller
Extremely impressed - runs so well on both the asus 701sd netbook and the older acer travelmate 243LC.
Really low resource usage and low running temp on both units. Frugal installations.
Outstanding puppy - many thanks for this little beauty.
Very best regards - Ray

Today when I logged in, I have no wallpaper and the font used on the desktop and panel has changed. Also the panel is different, 100 % instead of the reduced length. The wbar didn't start up also.
I have rebooted twice and same happened. I have deleted the save file and started again with a clean install.
I'll see how it goes over the next few restarts.
There is one other really minor thing, which is present in the original. The title for the Install Icon in the wbar has a typo error, it's missing the 's'. |
Fixed the wbar misspelled word of intall to install. Also the problem with fluxbox going nuts should be fixed now as well.
Cheers

You can edit fixmenus script to run fluxbox_menu_refresh automatically.
Thumbs up for fluxbox puppy, I'll add it to my testing list, fluxbox is my favorite wm so far. |
I did fix this now using the pet that you have provided.
Cheers

I loaded amarok sfs from here using sfs_load and it runs, listening to online streams atm. Simple gtk radio also works. |
This is fixed now will open opera to setup mail and also chat.
Cheers

I have fixed this as well by removing the pet that I used and went back to the one that zigbert did.

All of the ones that I have fixed will be in the Beta release coming in the next week after I write one more program.

Great, I thought as nobody else reported any similar issues it was me. Look forward to running your next release.

Hi oldyeller,
Just discovered this, I will wait and test your beta release since it seems to be about ready. Will you be including your latest Manna program?
Regards,
Jim

Manna will be in the ppm, after I get it done I am in the process of rebuilding it so that it works the way that I see it. Just need to learn some more code
I do have bibledesktop and Alkitab in the repo along with jre
