My laptop has a 'tilt bar' type touchpad, making right-clicks (a requirement to get the Fluxbox Menu) difficult.
Solution: Config button on the toolbar allows you to add apps, including the Menu. Command is:
fluxbox-remote RootMenu

merci ozout. (from Virtualbox, testing fluxpup).
Thumbnails well appeared on fluxpup running in Virtualbox. Strange why there is a bug when installed.

I think this is my new favorite Pup. Everything works on my Core2 HP NC6400. It's installed on the harddrive as full-install, and also on a USB thumbdrive. Saving changes works fine on the USB. Only thing I noticed was that it won't mount my other ext4 partitions, but it looks like that's already being looked into.

Also, happy to see that FluxPup doesn't keep one of the cpu cores running at 33%. Three other Pups with newer kernels work fine except that the Linux "kworker" bug shows up on my particular machine, keeping a core at a steady 33% with no other processes running.

Hello Everyone,

I have just up loaded a new iso. So the ext4 should now be fixed thanks to 01micko.

So test and let me know

Thanks,

Your welcome 117woofer.

If anyone wants to put the root menu on the taskbar this is how to do it.

find this line in the init, it is in ~/.fluxbox folder- session.screen0.toolbar.tools: RootMenu, prevworkspace, workspacename, nextworkspace, iconbar, systemtray, clock. You can just copy and paste this into it as well.

Cheers

sure it's a pleasure to try latest puppies, as Pupjibaro jessie by our colleagues, but when you need to do some work, without wasting time; i include a well-known Puppy precise in my multiboot pendrives. Fluxpup is one of them.
