Many thanks jpeps, as I say I feel it was probably something else in memory, probably via transmission bit torrent.

Wait just a minute . . . I did access a Mac USB keydrive yesterday . . .
could my computer have been channeling a ghostly Jobs?

No worries. Thanks for compiling and info Smile

Just got Compiz working (not perfectly - the windows had no 'outer bar' to close resize etc.) Wobbling and other effects working - this is on a nearly pristine install of Slacko 5.3.1

Great to see compiz has been added to a mainstream Puppy, if it is easier to setup in future puppies, that could help the user base grow a bit - I have seen so many times how popular compiz is...

Although for me, compiz was the first 'annoyance' that I disabled when forced to use Ubuntu at work... Everyone else wanted it on, cos they liked wobbling, transparency, flashy alt-tab menus, etc... Drove me mad... lol...

This Puppy is NOT a derivative!

Please move it back to it's appropriate forum. \ Evil or Very Mad

As you've probably seen in the news, megaupload is in trouble for piracy... I used it a bunch of times to put some .pet there.

I am not going to apologize because my use of the above mentioned site was genuine and in no way related to piracy. However, if someone would like to get to these pet files, I am not sure how to provide them anymore.

Any suggestions?

Hmm...There could be somekind Official Puppy releases section.
Yes...I know...no more new sections...there is already too much of them....but....Official Releases should have their needed place.
Barry uses bugs section for feedback. Lucid Puppy and Slacko are Official Releases and they are in Puppy Projects where are other non-official projects.

Also to elaborate...there could be Official Wannabees section also....and...then there could be....lol

But....Lets Slacko have it`s original place where it has been developed and granted as one of the Official Puppies.

Another idea is to have one main category for all Pups and Derivatives, and to have sub-categories under the main one. This is how the Additional Software section is organized and I think it works good that way.
