Bring back Puppy 431

#91 Post by l2ulinux »

I wish there was a new Puppy 431 are a remake of 431 are 432. I do not want a Lucid 431, Wary 431, Racy 431 are a Slacko 431. It could have a newer kernal and newer drivers.

I think no Pup's should DIE are just left to be old history.

Have you tried TXZ_Pup?
An puppy 4 series fork.
TXZ_pup 4.50
a special version built with all TXZ packages
"first of its kind " and a slackware kernel 2.6.27.7
it uses the latest slackware type package management
to install /uninstall packages with a new Xdialog GUI
that also has dependency checking this is a work done
by forum member big_bass "this was built using pkgtools"

harii4 I see you like the older Dogs yourself.
3.01 Fat Free / Fire Hydrant 3.0b featherweight / 3.02CE / TXZ_pup

I just like using Puppy 431. I don't know why but it got me by a lot of cold and rainy days. It is a old friend I just don't want to see go as other Pup's have gone.

Akita Linux (formerly called Puplite)
Based on TurboPup (a Puppy 420 derivative), but now Wary 5.1.x compatible.
Still uses kernel 2.6.25.16 and SFS-v3.. It is a pre-woof build
This puppy is close to it. :?

Your right about it starting out to be a good Puppy release. But now Wary 5.1.x compatible and that is the point. I and many others would like the Plain Jane of 431 or 432 with a newer kernal and run newer programs.

So why does Racy not fit the bill?

In light of the current versions of 4.32, I could use some final clarification (I've culled the threads, but am still unsure). Which--in general terms--is more recommended:

puppy432_V3

or

pup-432-SCSI-002


Apologies for being dense,

Try Wary 5.1.4.1.
It has newer apps / kernel / plugins, plus 4.3.1's SeaMonkey 1.1.18 browser.
If you switch to 4.3.1's JWM theme / wallpaper, you probably wouldn't know the difference. :)

Kinda Lucid Puppy 006:

http://www.4shared.com/file/7sqsvU0p/klp-006.html

I am in the process of re-uploading this gem from Iguleder.
Done...use the link above.

I hope it works...my first time with 4 Shared.
It takes 20 seconds to start the download.....patience.
I gave it a quick test....seems OK.

glibc upgrade

#103 Post by sindi »

All the links to deb packages for glibc upgrades (to 2.11) that I found in puppy forums are broken. Is there any pet package for a glibc upgrade tested working with 4.2 and/or 4.31 puppy?

Opera 12.10 and later now require glibc 2.8. Opera 12.02 does not but it also does not work with Youtube. 11.52 does, but not very well.

I am using 4.2-based pulp linux with glibc 2.6 - don't recall what 4.31 has.

I like puppy 4 because it works with loadlin, and puppy 5 does not.

It might be worth searching google, or contacting the people who post the package you need.

There's more repositories here too-

I have been using regular 4.3.1, as well as Toutou 4.3.1 and the KDE Puppy 4.3.1 for a while now, and they are quite nice.

I don't think they need a new version or kernel, but there is a lack of software for them, people don't make .pets for 4.3.1 much anymore. And that is often what kills an o.s.

For example, there was at one time a .pet for lmms, and several for Audacity. The links are now gone.

On the other hand, surprisingly, I tried several Wine versions from the repository, and both 1.5.2 for Slacko and 1.5.0 for Lucid actually work fine on Puppy 4.3.1! :D

Software can become unable due to temporary storage. Its always worth asking the person providing it if they can make it available again. 8)

It's probably not worth it, they were pretty old versions.

Incidentally, I tried those Wines again and noticed there is a small bug that in certain places the cursor appears as a big black block. Overall though, they seem to run smoother than the latest 4.3.1 Wine I could find, which is 1.3.2.

This is even more of a reason why some new software should also be compiled for 4.3.1.

Why not use green_dome's Wine builds? The latest build is 1.5.17, and they've always worked great for me in Puppy 4.3.1. :)
[ Puppy 4.3.1 JP, Frugal install ] * [ XenialPup 7.5, Frugal install ] * [XenialPup 64 7.5, Frugal install] * [ 4GB RAM | 512MB swap ]

Oh yeah, I just tried that, works really well. It doesn't even feel like 4.3.1, it's so fast.
