i tried installing compiz myself but no luck so far

i used the 2 sfs files followed by the setup file

but no dice . grrrrrrrr.... :twisted:
Hi

If you mean LxPupTahr-15.05 then I'm afraid the answer is no - this is for Slacko based LxPup's only.....

This project is in hibernation - I don't intend to make any further issues.

Cheers

right, okay

I guess I should have realized 15.05. tahr is ubuntu based rather than slacko

but nonetheless

thanks for your prompt reply

warmest regards.

compiz pup loses network driver after I create a save file.

Compizpup loses network driver after I create a save file on my usb stick and sdcard installs. When I intially set up networking my wifi adapter is there, then after I save everything and reboots it is gone.

Upgraded LxPanel, because the default wasn't showing all the workspaces. Unfortunately it ruined the default menu order. Is there a way to get it back?

CompizPup used LxPanelX - not LxPanel - so your upgrade will have zonked it!!

That's too bad. I really wanted a deb or wolf based puppy with compiz. Are you sure there is no way to restore the puppy menu order? How did you create it in the first place?

Lots of configuration files that you will have overwritten.....reinstall is the only possibility....

G'day peebee, Thanx 4 this CompizPup, I'm Surprized & Amazed that it Runs on an Acer TravelMate 290, 1400 MHz Centrino & Only 768 MB RAMemory Laptop that I Guess is all of 15 years Old! And Boots First time 2 the Desktop in about a minute!

But after Creating & Booting w/ a save File it takes 22 minutes, which is obviously rather unsatisfactory... The Breakdown is as follows
+7 mins > root login on 'tty'
+2 mins > Mouse Arrow Curser
+2 mins > RetroVol Window
+1 min > Background Wallpaper
+10 mins > icons in the System Tray, Usable

Btw another Clue, When Booting w/ the save File the icons in the System Tray get Duplicated... Strange!

Can yoU or anyone eLse Please tell me What's going on & of course How 2 Fix it & I 4get the Terminal Command 2 Show the Boot Processes 2 Trouble Shoot 4 Clues...

Thanx 4 Your Help!
