Yes indeed. I am also going to link the Help page to the Lucid Help page as you suggest. |

My test of instant update 001 beta2. Everything was updated and is working with new changes. Only issue: To see the newer version of Firewallstate. Had to restart X server. |

Thank you. After deliberation, the "menu bug" didn't seem worth the risk, since the menus do work. But it is good to have the fix easily available. |

playdayz: You might say those two libraries have been tested mostly in Wary and Quirky, because that is where their from. Of 65 downloads no one has reported a failure in Lupu 5.2.5. Thank you duke |

The Aufs kernel patch is here: http://bkhome.org/sources/kernel-2.6.33.2/patches/ How do you get this patch installed to Lucid Puppy 5.2.5? |

new version 4.8 of my right click options package which offers additional right click options for convenience. I made a few small changes to my Right click package on the suggestion of smokey01 1) More options for text files and internet files 2) Also a partition can be searched by pfind 3) MIME was changed so that GIMP xcf files can be opened with a single click lupu-right-click-4.8.pet size 30k Go to this thread for details http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=519996#519996 __________________________________________________ |

Tough one. It is a kernel patch Bigpup and afaik that means it is applied to the kernel sources before or at the time of compiling the kernel. Also afaik, Barry makes the patched-kernel-sources available. 01micko compiled the 2.6.33.2 kernel for Lucid that has worked very well for us. In that case, I believe he *started* with Barry's patches but also made some of his own. I wonder if the people who are compiling the advanced kernels have looked at Barry's patched sources (which he doesn't have of course for the advanced kernel, but still, who knows, the recent ones might have something useful in them). |

The Aufs kernel patch was made 26 Apr 2011. The problem it fixes is in Lucid Puppy 5.2.5, so I do not think he used it. |

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply he did, only to illustrate that Barry has prepared patches for each kernel he has compiled, and 01micko added some to that set. By extension, the new aufs patches will have to be compiled into a new build of a kernel. I saw earlier tonight that it had already been done, but I can't find it again. |

Booting a computer from USB drive, with no internal hard drive installed, was failing to boot. Barry has found a fix for this. http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02272 |
