I am giving those that like cutting edge this release of Google-chrome dev and it comes with a new feature it has built in flash but can be turned off if you want to use your local install of flash. They say that it will self update as new flash release come out. This flash is suppost to work well in Google-chrome which in the short time I have played with it not bad.

I have seperated the libs needed for Google-chrome to run in Puppy 4.3.1 and the way I have it for MyWolfe. Starting with MyWolfe-013 the libs will be preinstalled.

So get new Google-chrome here.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mywolf ... t/download

Or get it here:
http://mywolfe.googlecode.com/files/goo ... .366.2.pet

Get the Google libs here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mywolf ... t/download

Or here
http://mywolfe.googlecode.com/files/google-libs-2.pet

If you have another copy of Google-chrome then you do not need the libs just the dev file.some notes about the dev release:

Some minor UI changes in the omnibox.

Recent regressions in font rendering have been fixed.

Known Issues
The location bar is undergoing renovation. Please excuse our dust.

The bookmark bar is not visible on the New Tab Page, will be fixed in next dev channel. Temporary workaround to bring it back is to enable it with a keyboard shortcut "Ctrl+B".

Important Notes
WebGL support in Chrome now runs inside the security sandbox. If you
have been testing WebGL, please remove the --no-sandbox flag from your
Chrome options. WebGL may be enabled via the --enable-webgl command
line option.

I installed the Google Libs and then the browser in 432 but nothing happens when I click Chrome Web Browser in the Menu.

for a temporary fix open /opt/google/chrome and rename sandbox to NO-sandbox

Stale NFS file handle

Your save file is corrupt. Boot with the option pfix=fsck to fix it.

NO-sandbox worked. Thanks!

Your save file is corrupt. Boot with the option pfix=ram to fix it.

Booting from USB stick don't know where to put in the boot option.

Artie...... you will have a file on your USB that is a start up config file. It will maybe be called extlinux.conf, or syslinux.conf, either way, it will have the .conf extension. Put the parameter in this file. Here is one of mine so you can see where it goes:

Code: Select all

default puppy
display boot.msg
prompt 1
timeout 80

F1 boot.msg
F2 help.msg

label puppy
kernel vmlinuz
append initrd=initrd.gz pfix=fsck pmedia=usbflash

The parameter to add is pfix=fsck
It slows down boot a little, but is well worth it.

The parameter to add is pfix=fsck

Yes, sorry.
Must have been working too many hours

Thanks very much for the suggestions. My USB stick is called SDA1. The only file on it ending with .conf is extlinux.conf. The content is

default vmlinuz initrd=initrd.gz pmedia=usbflash pfix=copy nosmp

Shall I put pfix=fsck somewhere here? I saw where you DaveS have put it but I also have a pfix=copy in there so I wanted to be sure before I tried it. Thanks!

I hear you can use more than one pfix= option by separating the options with commas e.g. pfix=copy,ram
I was actually under the impression pfix=copy is defunct anyway... but maybe I've heard wrong.
