I was successful with the new wacom tablet driver of charlie6
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=16491&start=135
installing with wacom bamboo tablet.

I tried it on lupq511 and luci236 and it now
allows the proper shutdown procedure
so that a pupsave file can now be created.

______________________________________

mtpaint 3.34.57 works when the tablet preferences are
set up in the following manner....

Set 'stylus' to 'screen'
The other tools leave disabled.

Don't forget to tick 'opacity' and 'size'
or the pressure effect won't be seen .

As far as I know (at this point) ALL SAMBA implementations from Shinobar/Mobeus/Rcrsn51 work!

This means that any PUP5.2 that utilitzes either of the SAMBAs (be it a PET or a SFS) will have a PUP that can do EVERYTHING a Microsoft PC or many of the other Linux distros do...FULLY for its LAN users! This includes print server functions with CUPS, as well.

For administrators, this means you can now set up a PUP5.2 that will allow you to avoid the $1000 - $10000 you would have to pay for a file/print/PDC/BDC/AD server. And its appears to run SUPER!

Go forth PUPPY enthusiast! These 3 Muscateers have blessed us with SuperDog proportions.

And to the Puppy antagonist, you will have to decide if you want your appraoch to provide this for newbie users to have out of the box or not!

I asked once before but received no reply. What eats up personal storage and how do I check? I have 1 gig personal storage and it is down to 439 meg, It jumped from 800+ down to 444 overnight and now down to 439 a couple of hours since last checking it. Confused

No, I haven't downloaded any programs during this time.

Only thing running is transmission - seeding some files. Shouldn't matter as all my important files are in a separate folder outside frugal install. This happened in 236 but not 235.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.. Luci-237 is running well although a couple times it dropped wired internet connection (DSL) and didn't reconnect.

thanks for all the hard work and effort Very Happy

Dropped another meg since posting!
