#1 Post by wow »

WORK IN PROGRESS

    UTF-8: KDE 3.5.x(not included) wont let you type(kate, konqueror, kwrite, etc.) special characters like á, é, í, ó, ú, ï, ö, etc.
    UTF-8: Pmusic can't play files if the filename or path has á, é, í, ó, ú, ï, ö, etc.
    Dillo2 is the only one web browser in the iso. Install seamonkey/firefox/flash from http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... ackages-4/
    There is no JWM/IceWM, to start X use 'xwin startlxde'
    more...

Perfect, something with the newer kernel. Do you plan on updating to the 4.1.2 release?

Maybe later, I don't need those fixes http://puppylinux.com/blog/?viewDetailed=00515 , but this iso includes some of them (Pmount fix, 3rd SFS bugfix1.2, modem fix, Pmetatagger 2.1, Bugfix for /tmp/versioncleanup, ssb module added to initrd)

Now I need time to make SFS's with more xorg and dri drivers, kernel sources, another devx_xxx.sfs and i18n translations.

xorg 7.4 supports many new Ati graficscards, that made problems with older versions.
If I remember well, it took 2 years to develop 7.4.
So for users of such new Ati cards this might be the best puplet around.

For others too, of course, the features look fantastic!
Great release, wow :D

It's LXDE-based and released during recession, so maybe call it LXR. :)

Downloading now - thanks a lot, Wow.

Wow ...

Thanks a lot for all your work on this pupplet. I tried it out and loved it. Definitely will go on my favorites list. Thanks again for sharing this with us.

Just one hurdle for me. I was trying ndiswrapper from the network wizard, and it complained that ndiswrapper module was not found. Did this get removed as well?

From Barrys Blog - he is also taking an interest in NOP . . .
Great stuff what these guys are doing, and we can cross-pollinate ideas.

Interesting. Anyone who removes Seamucky deserves my attention. Installed Skipstone, but it required additional manipulation beyond my ken. Dillo & Netsurf are terrific, though. Fast small and efficient we like.
The plethora of apps leads to confusion amongst the plebs. Took too long to find the Network setup, for example. Apart from some re-ordering amongst the menu entries, I'd suggest this item always deserves its own icon, preferably in the tray - it's the first thing everyone reaches for.
Nevertheless, eleven out of ten for getting back to reality with a 67Mb d/l; should enable all those poor DUN folks to re-enter the fray. Nice that someone cares this much.

What are all those rgba patches? Something required for compositing to work?

Your removed xsoldier-1.4 what were you thinking, for the love that is all and good. No wonder why most of the world is in a recession. Other than than that, this looks very interesting. I'll give it a spin on sunday :)

Cool.

This version is terrific in visual effects. Xorg 7.4 works fine on my old laptop with ATI 7500.

Though Dillo seems too lightweighted to be burdened with ad pics. It really needs an ad blocker.

No flashplayer is included in the pupplet. Now I am trying to install from Adobe.

first impressions

System
Pentium III 700, 1GB Ram, Ati Radeon 9250.

There is a radeon dri module, but X starts with vesa, as there is no ati driver module.
So I just get 1024x768, not 1680x1050.

Despite of this, the effects look nice, and are fast!
Gtk applications have a transparent menubar, and the panel has dropshadows.
With the correct resolution, this would look pretty cool.

As there is only dillo, the first thing to install will be opera or firefox.
This is ok, so this puplet stays small, and can be easily used to build customized puplets.

It seems to have system daemons like hal and messagebus, so it could be a great base to add a KDE.sfs. But I had no closer look at the daemons yet.

Priorities I see:
1.) wow, can you package the whole xorg as a sfs?
2.) And then, the devx will have high priority, so that we could compile own stuff. I am aware, that it will take you some time to set it up, because of all the upgraded libs like gtk or xorg.

Thanks for making this great release available, despite it still misses some important things!
It is so promising, that it really should get the required extensions :)

It might be multi core enabled. Atleast Conky for the lappy i tried on showed two CPU's and their respective loads.
