Quirky Tahr 6.05

Bibletime works great on Barry's latest Quirky Tahr.
Barry wrote:Quirky6 is intended to be as small as possible (hence compiled from source in T2), very fast, very simple, and optimised to run on Flash memory media. Yes, yes, all those things, but the real distinguishing features are three, firstly the very eclectic set of goals (see list below), secondly the thorough recovery/backup/upgrade mechanisms, and thirdly the optmisation to run as a "full installation" -- the latter needs to be appreciated in relation to Puppy Linux. There are other extended ideas that are in the pipeline.
I have it installed on a flash drive and find that it works great and is exceptionally fast. It does require the whole partition or drive. Bibletime is installed by clicking on the install icon which runs the Quirky Package Manager. Be sure to first configure the package manager, otherwise your search may not find Bibletime and even if it is found it probably will not install.

Thank you Barry,
Jim

This release marks the fourth, and probably last, release of the Fatdog 600 series and comes with a lot of improvements over the last release, Fatdog64-621.
Bibletime 2.9.1 has not been updated to version 2.9.2, however it runs great on the latest Fatdog64. Give it a try, it's installed using the Fatdog64 Package Manager in the Fatdog64 Control Panel. Thank you Kirk and James for another fine distribution.

Fatdog64's latest Bibletime 2.10.0, above, also works great on Mick's Slacko64. The attached screenshot also shows radky's FbBox which is a fine addition and is available for both 32 and 64 bit OS. Slacko64, although still an alpha version looks good and is working fine on my hardware.

Fatdog64 700 alpha 1

Kirk and Jamesbond have released their new Fatdog64 700 alpha 1 that works great for your Bible Study for those that have 64bit hardware. James has also updated to the latest Bibletime 2.10.1 for their newest OS. :D

Bibletime is installed using gslapt. In gslapt, click "update" first so that it updates the index. Then search for Bibletime and select it. Gslapt also installs libsword and other dependencies except for qt4.

To complete the installation, get the qt4-4.8.5.sfs here and load the sfs using the System SFS Loader under System in the Fatdog Control Panel.

I've found the new Fatdog64 700 a1 to be extremely fast and stable. Give it a try on your 64bit system.

Thanks again to the Fatdog team for continuing to support Bibletime. :D

NOTE: There is a small problem with this latest version in that verse numbers are not showing up in the text. The problem is also in the latest Windows version and was injected by the latest Bibletime update. It has nothing to do with Fatdog's update.

Regards,
Jim
