Yes, I just completed a pretty good test of each of the components. All sections came up exceptionally fast. Nothing has hung up. The sound is loud and clear. It's working slick as a whistle!

This version differs slightly from the version packaged with XUbuntu 10.04 OS which is where I encountered it. But, either version is a superb teaching tool for both kids and adults.

I also would like to thank you ttuuxxx for the file that makes tuxtype work at once! My kids can use it now in Puppy Linux.

Tuxpaint couldnt get it work in 5.2.5, installed the sdl files, then tuxpaint.
It flashes with a black screen shortly then quits.

Hopefully there will be a one file install soon too! :D

Well I downloaded 17 ubuntu packages and made it into one pet for you, It even works on spup. So if it doesn't work on your machine it must be something else wrong with you files, anyways give it a try.

The application installed into Puppy Lupu520 OS running on a Toshiba Satellite 1415-S115 with 512MB of RAM with no issues. :)
I d/l and installed in Luci-529 - Works great - Thanks for providing this great tool to help those who cannot type. This makes learning fun.

TuxType typing & TuxMath & TuxPaint+Stamps +SuperTux&Sound

ttuuxxx,
Good Sunday Evening,

I use Tux Typing in Puppy-528 without issue.
I find this program most helpful to people learning to type and learn English.
However,
Tux Typing doesn't want to activate in Puppy-431 which I use alot in older machines.

The audio files work.

Here is a screenshot of Pfind of "Tux".
(I cropped out the page full of .png references)

Here is screenshot of *dmesg* taken after no activation of TT.

Here is screenshot of /usr/games.

Here is the machine and OS:
Machine:
Toshiba Satellite P10-s429 (with old bios)
512 RAM, screen resolution 1280x800
OS:
Puppy-Linux 431 frugally installed on HDD
Seamonkey 2.16.2 loaded as an .sfs on HDD

Do you see anything missing?
Thank you!

I didn't do much testing, but it seems to run with dingo's SDL.pet. You could try uninstalling your previous SDL pets, & instead test with this one.

Hi :)

The Puppy is Precise Puppy 5.7.1. with full install on HDD.

Tuxpaint is not activating.
Have I missed a dependency?


Here is screenshot of the files I downloaded via Puppy Package Manager and screenshots of pfind search. Pfind search screenshot is in two pieces.
Note: Tuxtyping is setup and running perfectly on same configuration.
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.
