I think that you should point out that people should click on

Not the large green one.

1. what happened to version 523 and 524 -appears we went from
522 to 525 . trust this is not april fools joke?

No it's not a joke but for the fun:
Updates (without the bad 255 for me). pupsave (ext3)
from Luci 253 > 254 > 256 > 257 > lupu 521 >lupu 522 > to last Lupu 525
modifiing the name of "lucisave-..." > "lupusave..." for update from luci to lupu
No problems since luci 256. Only icons (on first reboot) and ,of course, some lost simlinks (my wallpapers)
and my French Quickpet

Because I use dial up, anyone give me delta from 5.2?


Edit : For my request above, thank you 01micko. Thanks.

FULL update + reboot gave screenfull of trace messages. Hard reset cleared the system. Machine fault?

520 to 525 Delta file

(Sage, it ONLY converts the 520 iso image to the 525 iso image )

OK...

playdayz, please transfer to ibiblio, thanks ( I regenerated and md5 checks out )

I guess my computer believe in April Fool jokes but the failure to boot has reappeared.

I had Luci 257 booting again and again with no problem and that was a fresh install and no update.

then I installed lupu525 also totally fresh and same code and it failed at first boot.

So what could have triggered this behavior? Sorry if this has already been answered. I did search three pages back.

Probably a badly burned CD.

Sorry I only do frugal install on the hdd. My Acer have no CD nor any DVD player and I am too "stingy"? to buy an external DVD player.

Can one use an internal DVD player externally on a Netbook?
I will go test latest iso again now and also what Stu came up with. A Lupu Lite 525

Hi,

upgraded to 525. All OK on IBM T42 except no clock in bottom right tray.

Puppy package manager is best I've found for expansion.

Very good work.

Regards Tony.

Wifi connection fails occasionally with Lupu version of "stay
connected".

Still good with original version.

Using 525. Installed jemimahs Frisbee, x-org high, and iron. Downloaded gimp sfs and java sfs (2 updates old ). and everything is working perfectly for me. I've yet to have any trouble. Thanks.

Something I compiled in lucid 511 based derivative.
Cbr image file comic book reader Cbrpager.

Those who like to test straight from the compilator. Experimental at this stage. lives-1.4.2.pet
Link to the Lives video editor. It starts but I dont know if you can really edit videos with it.

Are you sure you are turning it on--it is not on by default. Click the menu entry and then you can check in Pprocess--Search for stay-connected.

That little window is a bit confusing;
Will keep playing with it.

playdayz good that you told us I had no idea such existed either but luckily on ethernet I have not lost contact using Simple Network S... so maybe it is more critical with wifi?

we had a thread some time ago a few days ago a guy losing contact wifi maybe it was as simple as him on Lupu and did not new about that Pprocess thing and the setting there? I am in Lupu now. I have to go look then

There are no stay connected in that one at all?

You mean that explain why him loose contact and I would too if I used the Router and wifi?

Hello,
Testing Lupu 5.25 now...

Compaq CQ56 laptop
Intel Celeron 900 2.2g processor w/ 1mb cache
2gb ram, 1 gb swap partition
Intel 4500 graphics

Desktop auto configured correctly @ 1366x768
Installed RT5390 pet...
Installed Opera from Quickpet..
Wireless driver connected fine, persisted thru reboot...
Abiword, Geany, GMplayer all work fine...

Only complaint...How to enable scrolling in OB??
And can O/B roll windows U/D by scrolling the title bar??

Will test more and be back....

@EDIT:...Rebooted to jwm, realized no scrolling either..
Checked xorg.conf....wrong device (Samsung)...
Installed xorghigh from Quickpet..
Exit to prompt, ran xorgwizard, chose "Choose"..

Check for a PM to you that might help.

Also got a lot of kernel panics along the various lupu_2XY story, and have fixed it - that looks trivial - first by checking if the md5sum of the on-partition-loaded-lupu_5XY.sfs matches to the one on the live-cd (this one supposed to be checked OK before and after burning !!): in each case the downloaded sfs was corrupted - perhaps...could be not enough space on partition and deleting some unused files probably have helped.
Fix: just have
1) to bootup from live-cd with pfix=ram
2) if necessary to make enough space on partition (check with GParted)
3) check lupu_5XY.sfs md5sum match
4) to copy again the lupu_52X.sfs from live-cd to partition.
Hope this helps !
Have fun!
Charlie

Nice job as usual from playdayz who has to put up with a whole bunch of tough testors You really should get a medal !

525 is a piece of art.... nice to have a program where everything works the way it should!
Put it through loads of tests, so far no faults!

Now... 525 would just be perfect if one of the knowledge boys (girls) could get us a really nice 'SCREENSAVER' for the PPM

God luck on the next version playdayz
