After installed the updated pup-435 sfs, I just checked the performance of the Adobe flash player and Midori.

It plays fast on my P4, 2 GHz machine under VMware but produces very slow motion with my P2 Toshiba Tecra 8000 (neomagic driver). I configured Xorg exactly the same as I did with the other puppies I monitor.

I tried

and my favorite testing swf at

Oh its just the stupidest thing............ My internet banking page needs a 10 digit customer number, and this version of Midori will only allow me to enter 9 digits. The previous .pet for 2.2 was fine, and when I install that .pet over this one, it is also fine, but the scroll bug is back..... sigh!

@Technosaurus

I am pretty late in testing this alpha, but did put some bugs in the google bug collector. All bugs are system independant, and may already be found / solved. How does that show in the bug collector ?

All in all I am happy with this version, even took it produce some work last night (Abiword). Only general disadvantage I see is that in the long run the themes are quite dark. (in Abiword I set the paper to white, to get a better impression how it looks on paper, but after working an hour on a text the contrast with the rest of the screen is fatiguing to the eyes).

Maybe you can keep the same themes, but brighten them up a bit.

For the rest I am very impressed that all installations I tried worked out of the box. No surpizes. Even immediate audio on all systems.
- Celeron 2400 with onboard video
- Athlon 1800XP with Nvidea card
- Athlon64 with onboard video

Going to test some more systems later today. I have on the list to go
- Pentium4 1500 with onboard video
- Pentium 2 laptop
- HP pavilion
- ASUS 1005P
