I downloaded and installed this yesterday, it works great, the only problem I am facing is the clock is not syncing, I have the correct time region selected.

"Shutdown from whisker or from right click execute the same script, /usr/bin/wmpoweroff. If only the panel is killed it sounds like you somehow have the original tahr (or maybe Studio 1337?) shutdown script. Line 48-51 should be commented out."
/puppy_X-Upup_17.05.sfs italian version does not shutdown well. Scripts stopped by errors.
It seems that shutdown by right click on desktop would get x-upup tahr 6.0.2 shutdown well. I am trying to retrieve the Puppy builder, he is not part of italian Puppy.org..
Feed back soon, and i will inform how to make shutdown working properly.
right click, shutdown crashes
siklopz feed back same for me.

Congratulations. I have tested many software and runs well , for example:

Libre Office (and running macros without problems), Calibre, Paint, Krita, Wine (Soulseek, Ares), Amule, Thunderbird, VLC, and many others, of course your personal save file will grow but compensate in functionality.
Light, works well, but don´t like to much.

I have used JWM, XFCE, GNOME, KDE, under Ubuntu, and like a final user for day a day simple computer task, I say that XFCE is the best desktop for Puppy Linux, and should be the default one. JWM is minimalistic and functional, but.. although old computers working today, support XFCE, low consumption of resources and friendly for those who like simplicity and a personalized look.

Well, I hope having X-Tahr for a long long time with its kernel upgrade and 64bits version to respond the changes of the time

Thanks a lot for make possible Linux for those who cannot buy a new compu or wants to explore new horizons beyond the windows.

Hi.

I'm asking this on all XFCE Puppy topics, sorry for bothering...

Probably you can give me some help?

I need some advice on how to add right click actions to a XFCE Puppy. As far as I could examine they are defined in file:

/root/.config/Thunar/uca.xml

Is this file created/edited manually or automatic by a script?

I'm asking because of its <unique-id>1422185653060257-1</unique-id> definitions.

How are they created?
Are they necessary?

How to add right-click actions within a running XFCE Puppy?

Thanks

Ok,

so this X-Tahr has huge problems when changing language, keyboard and timezone in the first settings after first boot. Tried to change it to DE.

As soon as the message of existing language packages appears and one tries to restart X (when recommendation appears), the whisker menu quits. Also another thing (can't recall atm, but probably a panel?) quits (both unexpectedly). Both won't restart and the only way to get rid of those information GUI about whisker menu and 'panel' quits, is to click the remove buttons.

[rg66]

When you click add to create a custom action, appearance conditions is one of two tabs. See screenshot.

Whisker problem is most likely due to the fact that the language files aren't there. Nor are they for any of the xfce packages.

Just haven't seen this, uuppsss...

Thanks.
