Was KLP suddenly superseded by something better/smaller/faster/

Why was this thread abandoned faster than the Incas fled Machu Picchu?

As a bumbling pilgrim on his road to enlightenment, I'm feeling dazed and overwhelmed by the passing throng of endless puppy derivations. I'm left bedazzled and reeling by the dizzying array of bling and zing. What to reach out and grasp?

It takes me 7 hours to download an iso, so i'd appreciate knowing has this pup been abandoned already?
Or has it moved to another thread, under another name?

I'm in need of a puppy, ANY PUPPY that will be easy to get working with my brand new ZTE K3571-Z modem (vodaphone 3g) on a PIII 650 MHZ with 720 MB RAM.

All help greatly appreciated.

I believe things have moved along to the new DPup. The thread is here....

Well, thank you. I have actually been following the Squeeze thread (and wondering why it didn't mention Dpup in the title line), and had noted the recurring avatars, but didn't connect Dpup as being a development of KLP. (Which apparently it isn't. )

But after I shake the dust off, I'll stagger over to that thread, now then.

As you said, Squeeze isn't a continuation of KLP......but this is Puppy....most of the stuff is built with Woof so development can go in any direction.It doesn't get boring.....

KLP is built directly from 4.3.1, so they're 100% compatible. If it works under 4.3.1, it also works on KLP.

If your hardware doesn't like 4.3.1, you should try Wary.

No Puppy is abandoned, as long as it works for you and others use similar puppies, it's more than fine.

This is the fastest Puppy I have used and I wish someone would keep working with this release. I believe the 4.00 series was stopped way before its time. This still has a few bugs but I have never seen a OS that did not.

I just had my first exposure to KLP. There are so many puppy versions that it would take a while to try them all.
As to Puppy 4.3.1, I was using a version that was created by BK that included SCSI support.
There were a few comments, one from me, and BK pulled that version.
But I used it for quite a while.
I have to say that your update of it works and looks great other than Opera was crashing when trying to view some web videos and that was more than once.
But maybe I did something wrong.
I selected for the update to be installed with petget rather than downloading the file and running it to update.

Also, what are my chances of using my pupsave file from Puppy 4.3.1 by copying it to the KLP directory and renaming it as belonging to KLP?

Hi Iguleder was this puppy created before or after wary came out, and is it a true 431 os that has been updated or is it something different. there is some good discussion about 431 found here. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=66328

if klp is a true 431 updated puppy then can you mention it in my link above. so others know that you have made a go of it.

Kinda Lucid Puppy 006

I re-uploaded it here...>>> klp-006.iso

http://www.4shared.com/file/7sqsvU0p/klp-006.html

Chris.

4shared is a service that requires an account. I'm going to ask if you can upload it somewhere that doesn't insist on that. Datafilehost would almost work but it's over their 100mb size limit.

You can split a large file up into chunks to post an ISO on

datafilehost.com which has a 100MB file size limit

The software to do the splitting (and a script to rebuild)
is here

Just downloaded klp-006.iso from 4shared.com (had to sigc
in to gmail before I could download using Opera 9.64).
Opera fonts are very nice. Youtube no longer works well
with this Opera version. I can view one video but
not stop it, or search for another video.

Opera 12.10 and later require glibc 2.8.
Newer Firefox and Seamonkey need libdbus-glib.

So I tried QtWeb, in which Youtube cannot find Flash.

The problem was fixed in Pulp linux by downgrading
flash from 11 to 10 - I found KLP while looking for
an older Flash package, and the identical version
works in Pulp linux with QtWeb and flash. See
the QtWeb and Pulp discussions of this. I also
have recent Firefox libraries on the library
path so I tried that here with no luck.

Flash 10.1 works fine with QtWeb, so the problem
must be the outdated Opera version.

Opera 12.16 is 23MB versus 15MB for KLP's Opera 10.

Any chance of another upgrade of KLP? Slightly
larger, with newer glibc and opera and maybe
flash 10.3?

Hi,

Yes it is a great Pup isn't it.

Install

Glibc 2.10 and glibc locales 2.10, and dbus and dbus-glib from here

http://412collection.co.uk/system.php#ug

While your at it gtkdialog 4 from here is also handy

http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pe ... 246-w5.pet

darry

412collection is dead now.....

Hi Ally, I just went there. Is it going away? Thanks, Rob

Got it! 4.1.2 versus 4.3.1 ! So many choices. Kinda Lucy Puppy 006 is still an excellent runner. May I play devil's advocate. and also throw 4.3.2 V3 into the mix!

412collection has closed for a while now

all the files listed apart from the dbus_dbusglib are available here:

just found the dbus so have uploaded to above

Hi ally, I just checked again today. It is still up. It's great that we have 2 sites we can use. Thanks, Rob

very odd

I even checked whois and it says the domain is available?

Here is the address I am going to. It should be the same as what you are trying to reach, I think.
