Maybe that is written somewhere, but I can not find what it means to ovprecise?
The same kernel (3.9.11) as upupPrecise. (PAE-version)
What are the major differences? Everything works fine for me.
I updated some Applications:
desksetup-0.7
getflash-1.3
get_libreoffice
LazY-FReD
pbackup-3.1.9-1
pburn-4.3.2
pmusic-4.2.0-1
PupClockset-2.2
PupControl-2.4.1
quickpet_precise
Also included Adrive support.
@ James C I will download wary 5.5 and drop the files into woof so that when I do anymore updated or new version this will be fixed in them. Also if anyone wants to do this they can just do what you did. Thanks for all your help on this.
Thanks to everyone who has tested and posted
Cheers

Thanks for the quick response.
So, if I understand correctly, the OVprecise is the latest puplet?

Hi oldyeller
Your Oldyeller Version is looking very good and all the basics seem to work as expected OOTB.
Acpi suspend / resume working on my E732 laptop.

Will play some more and let you know how it goes.
Many thanks for this, much appreciated.
IMHO this is probably one of the best Puppies ever.
Seems to work on almost anything with more than 384mb of ram and a swap partition. Fantastic.

There is a big problem.
The fact that this puplet localisation does not know.
Just like the latest versions Macpup.
Is set for the Hungarian language during the installation, but that every reboot of the X "get lost".
Interestingly, the locale command set provides a good value,
but a text editor (Geany) is not the correct of accented characters, , the English language is retained.
The error has been corrected in the Hungarian version delayed.
I'm so sorry.
This error only occurs on certain versions of Puppy, unfortunately this was the second one.

@kros54
I think you must "Set encoding" in geany. I'd same problem with my input method. This is not a bug!

I went through everything. Geany really had to change the settings.
Other puplet can utf-8, but in ISO 8859-2 (middle Europe). This works really well.
Fortunately, not the same as the Macpup.
Thanks for the idea.
I'm glad I will continue on the job.

@kros54
Are you still having problems with language locale?

This is a never before experienced a very strange error.
X restart, and then launch Geany, first launched in English keyboard.
Second start: all right, Hungarian keyboard.
While I do not set anything!
I've tried other versions of Geany, this error remains.
etc/keymap file is also OK (hu)
By the way I work, now looks like this.
OpenBox + tint2+tint2 menu.
Get it OpenJDK support, and a SoftMaker FreeOffice suite, on the Abiword + Gnumeric will be deleted.

Yes it was tested. As far as a full install- not sure since I don't do them. You can try using:
pupX set properties of X which is in the Desktop menu and see if the screensaver work from there.

I did something to crash x, i got the screen where it gives you the option to restart
i typed in something like xwin -mw95 because it was one of the options given.
Now I cant shut down the PC at all, or reboot.
Everything else works normally.
(To crash X download the fuse spectrum emulator from the precise repositories and try to resize the fuse window)

Where you able to shutdown yet? If this happens again type this:
xorgwizard to set the screen resolution. If that does not work type:
xwin jwm that should work. sometimes you have too type xorgwizard and than xwin jwm.
