joking of course.

Take a well earned break WhoDo, I'm sure after your hiatus you will be nice and refreshed to coordinate packaging for Woof 5x series.

Cheers. Cool

Firstly, thanks to all who contributed to the very nice 4.2.1.

I was always very pleased to find a PDF printer native in earlier distros, e.g. 4.0 and 4.1. So I was disappointed to see that it was not included in 4.2 and 4.2.1. I was somehow able to install a PDF printer in 4.2 by following my intuition but I can't get a working PDF printer in 4.2.1.

Specific directions anyone?

Thanks for all you've done WhoDo, You did a top job, keep up the great work in the future Smile

Now run, run as fast as you can and don't look back Wink

lol
every long road ends somewhere and you just reached the end of the line, If people are having any modem etc issues, They can go to other threads for fixes, etc, as long as Abiword and Cups works, I would say your off the hook Smile

And even if they didn't work. you've done enough, take a break Smile

What are you still here reading this?? , man you should still be running, lol
Its been great working with you, If you ever need anything just send me a line Smile

Thanks WhoDo and all the other volunteers who support Puppy Linux.

I've downloaded both the standard and retro versions and will test computers in the office by Monday.

IMHO, every Puppy Linux release is a labor of love.

In my eeePC 701, 4.2.x has been looking crisp and responding quickly (with the added extras by tempestuous), so nothing to complain, really.

But just in case, remember folks, NO WARRANTY - use at your own risk. Very Happy

I just downloaded 4.2.1 and put it on my uncle's old computer. It truly is a beautiful piece of work! Thank you to all that have worked so hard to achieve such a great distro.

I am still running 4.1.2 on my own computer. Is anyone aware of any problems that I might encounter upgrading to 4.2.1 and using my existing pupsave file? Presently I just run Puppy from CD and have the pupsave on my hard drive.

Thanks again for the hard work!
