hi ka9qlq
make sure the ubuntu repos are enabled in the ppm
then do a search for ..... xaw3d
and install the "xaw3dg_1.5+E-17build1_i386.deb"

Well I'm not sure what or where the ppm is but it went right in with slaco. What's the best FS to put it on a 16GB jump drive? fat 32 ext2 or ext3? I don't want to burn the drive out.

Works on Puppy 5.29 Lucid if you use just the Pets from that thread

...but it went right in with slaco
I thought that meant it worked straight away in Slacko?
Three-Headed Dog is not the successor to Lucid 5.2.8. Rather it is an experiment, using a newer kernel. . . .

I assume you know what the PPM is now, more info

If xvkbd isn't working in Slacko - uninstall this version and install all three pets from other thread - any luck ?

It does work with slaco I was just wondering what Slack repos to enable. I'm not that familiar with Slackware or Puppy

Puppy 5.2x - Lucid has Lucid repositories automatically - software specifically packaged for the Lucid.
Puppy 5.3 - Slacko has Slacko repositories automatically - software specifically packaged for the Slacko.
Just go to the Puppy Package Manager (PPM) and click on what you want to load.
---
the difference is Lucid can use some Ubuntu software and Slacko some Slackware...
that is when you need to enable the extra repositories. hope that helps

I wish I knew why Slacko Puppy 5.3 won let you type to a window with out hitting the focus button and Lucidpupy 5.28 does. Different window Mgr? Desktop?
