Quote: | Yes mike that "insert key" bug is in still in the main release, I mentioned it twice in 3.5.3 beta build but I guess it was too late for a major change, The worst part is that same gtk package is also used in woof, So its probably in upup as well, spreading to series 5 Shocked , lol

I'd better dig out my link .....I updated gobject before using the fixed gtk2(same version with working xinput)...I'm not sure if the former is actually needed...what are you using?

@ ttuuxxx:
- What version of the Xserver / X.org are you using for this wooflet ?
- could you upgrade ALSA to 1.0.21a ?
- How about adding Michalis' Transmission 1.75-small .PET and Galculator 1.3.4 ?

There's nothing to upgrade. Puppy 4.3 already has the latest version of Flash 10

man ttuuxxx, your wife must hate computers. mine complains about me being on here too much and I know I don't spend a tenth of the time you do working on this stuff.
well, i look forward to tomorrows release. firefox is hugely popular, i don't know why puppy avoids switching to it.

The reason why I removed flash is due to the location, the default seamonkey mozilla folder is located in usr/lib/mozilla its a system wide location that works with Firefox 3.5.3 but I'm not using usr/lib to install Firefox, Lately I've been using /lib for everything and its just easier to keep everything bundled in one package, The Firefox package I'm using is the same one that 2.14X/2.20 uses, It comes with
Flash 10
Simple Mail
Flash Block
Xihna is here wysiwyg html
So when I install the package its basically just one folder, which has everything already included, plus everything auto-updates with the exclusion to flash, but Firefox/plugins do auto-update, its just a worry free way of making something right the first time
Yes The next release will have Transmission, I didn't notice at the time that it wasn't include, If I did I would of installed it, really the package is 100MB anyways, I don't see any reason why not to add a extra 200-300kb
Also might remove 4 calculators and just replace it with Galculator and keep Gmeasures.
There's only 2 things I'm waiting for the next update, intel drivers and working out why the ppd files aren't being generated by guten print/cups.

Ok I managed to get printing to work, the ppd files were being generated, but then they were being deleted before cups could copy them over to the cups ppd folder, So I disabled the line where it deletes them and now they all stay locally, 19MB worth, hmmm I'll see if I can add a line to cups to delete them in a different location.

Say, ttuuxxx, i'm downloading the retro version of 4.3 (kernel 2.6.21.7) right now for a former student's old laptop. Is your tweaked Firefox 3.5.3 available to download so i could install it? (Now DON'T go building an iso for me!!!!) IDK if she will care that much but i'd like to give her the option of using FF.
