I have successfully ripped 2 CDs into flac.

Ok, downloaded and installed the v3.0 iso on a fresh part'n

Xorg works (4.3.1 didn't) but I can't see anywhere to tell it to use a slower frequency as my monitor is old and although suppose to be able to run at 68K/85hz it has a little bit of eht sqeel nowadays. I usually max it at 70hz. The Xvidtune program just says na at settings lower than 85. Any ideas anyone please?

Xvesa worked with 4.3.1 beautifully, 4.3.2 only lets me run 800x600????

Keyboard works properly though, and I love the icon changes, much more professional looking.

regards

I was premature when I reported that gxine plays a downloaded YT video acquired from tmp. The video I was playing was recorded by a savvy electronica group, and probably had special properties, because a run-of-the-mill YT video (acquired from tmp) still doesn't play in gxine. Oh well.

Just wondering if the official version is dead in the water...it seems so.

I'm not sure, I don't have the spare time like I once did plus I'm fighting a head cold, My fulltime job should be finished in 2-3 weeks maybe sooner, Then I'll have lots of free time to work on this, Plus puppy 5.0 is out so I'm not sure if there is any support for 4 series anymore, How does it compare to 5 series? I'm personally put off the the size of series 5, 130MB is way too large in my books for a puppy release, It wasn't that long ago when we were complaining about going to 100MB.

I'm still using 4.32 as my primary operating system and it's been really solid and stable. Smile

Two things going for continuing the 4 series for a while longer is the stability and the smaller size.There have been enough releases and effort put into the 4 series that most of the problems have been ironed out by now. I think a 4.32 release would be appreciated and used by many as well. Smile

I would quite like a 432 release as I am not going to upgrade straight away for a few reasons.

After awaiting the promised fixes of 4.3.2, you suddenly see m to be cutting the floor out from under us!

Crying or Very sad

Shame on you. Crying or Very sad

5.0 is useless to me as the video won't work on vesa at present unless i'm happy with 800x600 (NOT)..

4.4 may eventually work, but not at present.

i'm running on 4.3.1 with some workarounds that your work will nullify the need of,
run with it
your NEEDED

my 2cents (with heart)
