gvfs-smb is installed. I checked from repos.

I got the exact same thing, network removed from file manager side pane and the same error message. Sounds like a network app was uninstalled and it removed some needed dependencies.

Hi, I would say that it seems quite similar to a bug I've seen in xubuntu having Thunar.
Unfortunately, it is still present and at the time being there are only few workaround.

Carolina - 0.0.7-rc
has been uploaded to the repo for testing, due to the changes that have been made there is no delta file.

Hopefully there shouldn't be to many bugs, though as it is built from 005 the hardware issues that some have had will still remain.

Download link see the first post.

Thank you

Is the new ISO OK?
I downloaded on my phone, it would not boot when cut to a CD. I tried twice burning using Nero. Tried booting on two different boxes.

I next downloaded from a different computer. Burned same problem.

I checked Msum appears correct. I burned with a slacko. Still will not boot.

Thanks for checking.

Sorry about that the ISO was missing it's boot record, uploading a new one.

No problem glad we found it....

It is snowing again! Yes literally. OH well.

LIFE

Downloaded twice, again on phone and desktop...

Getting image checksum error when isolinux runs.

((((

At least mist rain, snow stopped . 35 degrees.

same problem here with burning iso to cd... however, frugal install works quite well...

Sorry guy's I've removed it, I'll fix it as soon as possible, I don't know what happened.

I've uploaded a new one, this definitely works, I've tested it several times after burning it to cd.

to Geoffrey: I've noticed that you've included Isomaster.

It small in size but you could, if you want ,avoid using it
by using a right-click menu item. I do this in my right click pet package.

Right click on a folder to make an ISO

Posting from 007 using my shared Opera. Frugal Grub4Dos installation boots fine with or without adrive on the fujitsu s6520 core2duo laptop, intel gma4500, intel iwlwifi wireless. Resolution, sound fine, ondemand governor default working correctly, synaptics touchpad pretty well set up ootb. Wireless connects with a couple of glitches/changes. Frisbee no longer seems to accept a WEP key, either hex or ascii. Network wizard connects as usual. Try installing a default firewall. For me, even though the install script shows the same version as 006, installations get stuck requiring a full port by port description. Just a quick first look, I'll fiddle more later.

I like to have a Saluki/Carolina with Icewm instead of xfce. But after installing and activating Icewm, Saluki/Carolina still boots in xfce. Icewm starts on top of it.

No problem with that (in fact it is a good thing, now I have a system which has the beauty of xfce AND it understands my key combinations which I defined for icewm) but...

the icons for volume, battery, frisbee, network configuration and firewall are on the xfce taskbar, not on the icewm taskbar. Worse, immediately after booting (or ctrl-alt-backspace) the xfce taskbar appears, then disappears completely.

So I guess my first question is: how do I instruct puppy to put the icons for volume, battery, frisbee, network configuration and firewall on the icewm taskbar?

second question: how do I keep the xfce taskbar from disappearing?

third: how do I switch xfce off and icewm on in Saluki/Carolina?

There is a problem with the XFaenza icon theme, it's causing some errors. Below is a link to the fixed theme that should solve these issues in the mean time. Just extract it to /usr/share/icons or if you want it in the sfs right click puppy_lina_007.sfs and edit it with "repack-extract packages".

This is geoffrey's fix by the way, mine still had issues.

Carolina was never intended to have any window manager other than XFCE, the fact that there is a icewm pet in the repo is that it is a leftover from saluki packages and a oversight on our part, it never worked correctly with Saluki either, jemimah intended it to be a single window manager environment desktop, we will not be supporting icewm.

007 The Bond puppy. Licensed to thrill??

Manual frugal install to HD partition, same issues with Frisbee, but connected with Network Wizard, I got lost trying to set Firewall, but very nice pup.

Thank you!

Script to make bootable ISO. It doesn't require ISOmaster app.
