Tried luki-006 for the XOs and looks good (also the chrome driver compiles fine).
However, I have a problem with font size not present in v005. They are huge and do not observe Xft.dpi settings (see sreenshot This is at 1200x900/200dpi screen resolution).
Assuming is not a bug I would appreciate if you could point out the relevant XFCE setting so save me some searching.
Thx

PS: should point out that aufs-util-3.1.pet, GConf-3.2.3-i486.pet, synaptics_luki.pet, evince-2.32.0-i486.pet, gnutls-2.8.5-i486.pet, ucview-0.33-i486.pet, fbreader-0.12.10-i486.pet, midori-0.4.3-i486.pet, galculator-1.3.4-i486.pet and nano-2.2.6-i486.pet has been added in the main sfs and the following buildin packages have been removed from the build: grub, grub4dos, 915resolution, makebootfat, acpid, acpitool, vattery (as with my other builds)

Go to the Appearance settings - on the Fonts tab you can set the dpi.

Hi jemimah,

Working well on my r51 thinkpad with limited testing.

I just wonder if it's worth having all the standard puppy icons on the desktop since most of them don't work. I'm supposing you have some idea of what you are going to do and maybe you've mentioned in this thread somewhere (please excuse my laziness for not reading right through).

Well I guess for the 'browse' icon you could go the lupu way and offer to install a browser. I started developing an app here to address getting the latest mozilla browsers in your default language using curl, works fine in saluki. It could easily be adapted to get chrome, midori, opera direct from a repo, it wont work the same as the mozilla code.

By the way, the code in the app will easily grab Thunderbird too, it was on the todo list to add support for that.

Let me know what you think and I will continue development.

Hi jemimah

Pristine frugal install of luki006 on my HP550 laptop.

Loaded the pnethood pets and setup my wifi connection with Frisbee

Here's what I got after successfully connecting to my samba share when I clicked the "Show" button in pnethood....

Looks like something doesn't like directory names with spaces in - directory is called "My Documents" on my xp desktop

Regards

Good results.
Sound worked with aplay
and I could record with Bacon Recorder.

It installed properly on a rather difficult intel graphics chip.
IBM thinkcenter m52 .

Fluppy 012 will run but I couldn't get Fluppy 013 to run
on this machine.

Here's the video report.

I added russian keboard layout as usual and flags change in xfce4 keyboard-layout indicator. Though it can not be used to control the settings( boxes are empty)

I'd better prefer a minimal distro without applications, even without a browser. That means, I can add only apps I prefer.
Also I think that we need a good looking puppy. So newer gtk themes MUST be in. To my taste, it's not necessary to include all the xfce4 -gtk themes. Even "slowest" gtk themes like murrine or equinox and aurora work fast in puppy

Jemimah, what do you plan to make a built in mediaplayer?

I know what I mean of course:). I'd like to have a BASE system, something like Saluki looks now. I will add FF and if someone does not like it, he can add Chromium, etc.
Then, the question about mediaplayer means this: jemimah used gstreamer in Fluppy and it seems that this will also be in saluki, am I right.
