I have run Puppy when all my Hard disks have failed and USB booting was not available, using multisession . . .The main input device shorted out with who knows what cross linked and Puppy still works.
I am impressed!
Brave Pup . . . wants to run . . .
In 250, will download latest if I can,
In jwm the OOolight SFS displays so far up the screen you can not access the maximise and other buttons from the mouse - this is not the case with openbox, where it is OK
Is it possible to have a chat button much like the browse button
which gives the option of a variety of software - xchat, pidgin, ayttm, web based?
It looks like Openssl 1.0.0 won't work. Sylpheed wants 0.9.8 but will accept a symlink, but gftp also wants it and will not accept a symlink. The best (and simplest) solution is to go back to 0.9.8 in luci-252. 0.9.8 is what Natty is using so it is state of the art, even if it doesn't have the nice 1.0.

James C found the edubuntu desktop. etc., but I doubt we could run that. I had assumed there would be many applications that were included.educational applications.
I'm using openssl-1.0.0d-w-20110209 without problems; needed it for TOR, but sylpheed and gftp is working.playdayz wrote:It looks like Openssl 1.0.0 won't work.

Long,long ago when Edubuntu was a separate release I seem to remember everything being available in individual packages....now that it's just an addon to Ubuntu it appears they just combined everything.playdayz wrote:James C found the edubuntu desktop. etc., but I doubt we could run that.

Upgraded from 250 to 251 - simples, went well
Choose the simple desktop icon arrangement that James C has depicted earlier in this thread - oh I like that . . .
Aer, Argo gold and other icon sets are a separate download? Their buttons appear [without icons] in the 'desktop icon switcher' selector but they are not included?

Did a fast frugal install on the NTFS where I have my other Puppies too and installed FF and tested to do streaming video on our local TV station.
Then looked at some pictures of Cats and Dogs trying to look cute and played an old cover of Rock'nRoll from 1960.
Looks okay from here.
I use nosmp with this one. should I test without it? I am on Acer D250 and Lupu usually don't boot consistently if I exclude the nosmp.
what does the nosmp take away? Is it better to do without it and only use if it is the only way to boot?
No criticism and not a request or demand either but what is it about Fluppy and Snow Puppy that allow them to use the RFKILL and Threaded something and a third thing that allow these puppies to reliably boot while Lupu need an added nosmp for to boot? Why can not Lupu have the RFKILL and threaded thing too? Just me trying to understand.

Using the fontwizard.pet in 251
from Lucid news

turning all the options on
it seems to make my fonts flicker when viewed close up
does it offer improvements for LCD users or eyestrain?

hi playdaze, in lupu 520 when copying files, the 'quiet' option did not work. Forcing you to click multiple times to overwrite stuff. Is it possible to fix this in luci251?

Changing virtual desktops in JWM fails in Luci-251.
For JWM-500, the Desktops tag in jwmrc.personal has changed to a new width/height format, such as:
However, jwmrc.personal in Luci-251 has the old Desktops tag, which JWM-500 does not recognize:
Also, the corresponding configuration files in /usr/local/jwmconfig2/ should be updated, similar to 01micko’s modifications in Spup.
For JWM-500, the Desktops tag in jwmrc.personal has changed to a new width/height format, such as:
Code: Select all
<Desktops width="x" height="y"/>
Code: Select all
<Desktops count="x"/>
You installed the pet, I am assuming. Have you tried to use the ssh2 mode in gftp? That's where it failed for me. Sometimes I have found that installing a pet does not give the same results as building it in from scratch, but this gives me an idea to try. Thanks.I'm using openssl-1.0.0d-w-20110209 without problems; needed it for TOR, but sylpheed and gftp is working.
Yes. When installing the pet, libcrypto 0.9.8 i still there, in addition to libcrypto 1.0.0, but libcrypto is too big to have both.
Some people have reported that it does offer improvements. I have not tested.Using the fontwizard.pet in 251

This is really a safety feature just to make sure your overwriting what you want overwritten.playdayz wrote:Yes. It has been this way for a while at least.
