(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Test driving it (in 16.07.3 actually). Seems to have no problems using profile from previous Light (on external media). I'll try and use it daily for now and update the whole Sc shebang on the next iso release.

Edit: I did have to remove and reinstall Ghostery to get it working properly. Pretty simple and quick.

The versions of the browsers as of 03-aug-2016 with their md5sums are:

Delta downloaded, 16.08.1 iso generated, md5sum checks. 16.07.3 savefile cleaned of kernel stuff (not essential but I usually do if I know the kernel is being changed just to keep the cruft down) and checked, frugal install on the core 2 duo laptop went normally (once I remembered to include the f_drv ). All settings and PWF 4.1 wireless connection ok, glxgears FPS over 1600 with Opera open... good for this laptop. I was already running Light 48.0 so no change there.

Thanks ally! With the adrv and fdrv, 16.08.99 seems to be behaving for me so far.

By the way, how does one drag a file from one folder to another in Lxde? It does not seem to accept this when I try it.

edit: Nevermind, I figured it out. You have to click on the down arrow on top left and switch from "Places" to "Directory Tree".

edit2: Hmmm, renaming folders seems like another task not easy to accomplish. Ahhh I have to right-click to select, then go into "Edit" at the top navigation bar and select "Rename", or switch to "Directory Tree" mode again and do it on the left side.

I did a manual frugal install to a usb-3.0 SSD, computer is a HP

Hello,
I downloaded LxPupSc 16.08.2 - the iso link given in this same thread.
http://archive.org/download/Puppy_Linux ... 6.08.2.iso

Every thing went on fine. I booted / installed LxPupSc 18.0.2 using USB .

When I was supposed to boot from the HDD, it gave the following error:
can some one help me with this ? how to fix this error?
Thanks,
Prasad.

Sounds like a corrupt download...

Please download 16.08.1 and the 16.08.1-16.08.2 delta from sourceforge and check the md5's after applying the delta.

Downloaded from Ally's site version and md5sum reports this Accurate?

Peebee, I've had someone post that light-48.0 is playing youtube videos at a faster speed, I can confirm this on X-Slacko and X-Tahr. Is this the case with LxPup as well? I'm assuming it's html5 as no flash player is installed.

Accurate?

Afraid I don't know as that is now an old superceded version that I don't have a copy of.

Ally - grateful if you could delete it please - thanks.

I downloaded and tried using xdelta but I am getting the following error:

bad magic number is given.
This is first time I am using Xdelta so I am doing some thing wrong and seems trivial.
advice please. ?

Is built with latest 'testing' branch of woof-ce and therefore has:

- updated init system (sfs loading handled differently) - should not affect a system update

- pschedule / cron changes - if you have jobs setup you will need to check they update correctly (particularly snap2 jobs)
