A little more info on the Keyzboardfixxer.pet. It works like an app. You can access from the menu under applications-Desktop -e17 keyboard restore. You can also add it to the desktop or put it on the ibar or favs menu or whatever. If you haven't set up your keyboard yet it will help you do it and if you have it will restore it when it gets mess up.
And the thanks should go to Karl, he is the one who fixed it.

Yeah, Macpup was steaming along in the 90s, just about to drop out of the top 100 .
You should release some experimental Macpups based on Slacko once a while .

Personally I think the fact that we stayed on the chart without releasing anything for a whole year is one of the most impressive thing our little project has done.
I don't know bout a slacko build.I am just not into slackware. I'm not saying anything bad about it . It doesn't really interest me.
Some of the stuff I want to do with the next pup is of course fix the keyboard stuff but I want to improve our built in support. Changing a few things with the help pages. Going back to a unified look through the whole pup. I got burned using a matching gtk theme back with Fox 2 . But now that we have tester that can check stuff I think we can get away with it. PPM still need work.....stuff like that. But we are just three days into this release !!!!!

Hi runtt21,
I did find a bug maybe I downloaded gimp and it never showed up in e17 or in jwm any ideas?
I can use it by using Gexec.
Cheers

Find its .desktop file, it should be in usr/share/applications and check its category . If it is different from mt paints category change it to match and then menu enlightenment restart.

I receive the same message if i try to d/l by clicking in the usual way, however when i right-clicked and chose 'save target as', the Onyx-1.pet downloaded to my system without any issues
You have to do it that way with all files on that page..
Cheers!

No Joy here with Seamonkey, Firefox and Midori .
Right clicking and "save as"
downloads everywhere a 384bytes .pet file for me .
Because it is a .pet, it shows in ROX filemanager as .pet but right clicking the .pet and show properties it says

To add insult to injury. The

Just so there is no misunderstanding. The page I accessed was

Short comment about the macpup.org/forums site :
I wanted to post there and wanted to use a special char : " ½ "
When submitting there , everything after that char incl. that char was cut .
So I tried to wrap it in quote and code tags to see if that would work and had some issues probably to my reduced analog speed while previewing it . I tried to edit it and suddenly got an blank white page with a weird url in the firefox url-bar . So I gave up on editing it and will edit it next 1st with normal 3G speed of 900KB/s .
I hope that this did not affect anything in any ways
.
The murga forum interface is quite user-friendly !
Probably needs to invite Flash to clean up the mess in the old hardkap forum
