See for planned fixes and changes on next iso release in second post.
Very similar to DebianDog, but with the difference that it's Ubuntu based, so can be compared best with Mintpup, as Mintpup is based on Ubuntu also.
Full access to Ubuntu repositories by using apt-get (from terminal) or from Synaptic Package Manager (GUI)
Openbox is the main window-manager, the GUI setup is very much like DebianDog64
Differences compared to DebianDog or MintPup:
- Different applications, some are not present and some others added.
- Choices of window-manager are: Openbox and Jwm , see for specifications below.
Login details:
root with password root (default automatic login)
puppy with password puppy
Specifications:
Built from an absolute minimal Ubuntu full install (using mini.iso).
Kernel: 4.4.0-59-generic
Choice of Boot Methods: porteus-boot and casper-boot , see options at the XenialDog Wiki
Default WM - OpenBox (and option for Jwm, see below)
(with different choice of Desktop modes: tint2 icon-panel, cairo-dock or rox-pinboard icons, to choose, run 'Desktop Manager' from Menu)
Tint2 bottom panel or cairo-dock.
(replaced wbar (from previous (32-bit) version) with a minimal cairo-dock
Default File Manager - pcmanfm with option to use rox.
Default Internet Browser - Firefox.
Menu provided by Obmenu-generator (perl script)
Added: Quick-remaster and Upgrade-kernel tools
Option to switch to JWM (Menu > System > Start Jwm)
Full LZ4 squashfs support (compression and loading modules)
Systemd is enabled by default, to use upstart (the older Ubuntu initscripts), do in terminal:
Code: Select all
apt-get update # might be required
apt-get install upstart-sysv
The Iso size became quite big mainly because:
- Big size of Ubuntu kernel 4.4.0-59-generic (in /lib/modules)
- Package 'linux-firmware' installed (has most firmware)
- Python and Perl installed
