Hi Jejy69,
here are some screen shots about windows tiling side by side.
Lately, I found it very useful because When i am watching a movie halfway and i suddenly want to check up something with web browser, I can still keep an eye on the movie. The web browser window will not cover up the vlc window.
Windows 7 has this feature. Windows xp doesn't have this feature. But for windows xp, someone created a program called winsplit revolution to make it possible for windows to tile.
if there is a program to make it possible for windows to tile under lxde windows manager, i will be very happy.
As far as i know, xfce and the e17 windows environment has the tiling feature.

Simplicity Linux based on LXPup
An Lxpup and Jejy 69 accolade....
This is the first version of Simplicity Linux based on LXPup rather than Carolina or Saluki.
Discussion: Simplicity Linux - something fishy

LxPup = Puppy + LXDE
Main version used daily: LxPupSc; Assembler of UPups, ScPup & ScPup64, LxPup, LxPupSc & LxPupSc64

And after all that, no publication from distrowatch for Lxpup. it no longer useless, my progress on Gslapt, Lxde etc ... I am disgusted. Good for simplicity Linux. I'm on the verge of stopping it. Many disappointment.
Lxpup is dead, long life to Simplicity!

I'll cry.We have also put more focus on Gslapt as the package manager.

Not sure if you are aware of it or not Jejy? But the way Distrowatch works is that YOU have to write about your distro to THEM, comprends-tu mon chum? This is how Simplicity got all the "media coverage" there at Distrowatch. They wrote up what they wanted to appear at the Linux news media website and then submitted it to the owner, Ladislav Bodnar, or Jesse Smith, and then they personally reviewed the websites, materials, .iso files, etc., after which they will make any amendments to what you have written and then add the news about you.
So take good heart mon cher chum, d'accord?
A la prochaine fois!

Hello Eyes-Only,
I badly expressed myself. I does not question Distrowatch, but simply what is written on the site of Simplicity:
They did not even change the theme !
Distrowatch imports me little. I am not there for " Glory and fortune ". It is the comments of Simplicity who disturbs me.
It is obvious that I would never have a media coverage. But one more time I am not for that there.
Have a nice day.

That's what happens when you make great distroes
Jejy,
Let it be of -some- comfort to you that all this is because your work is TOP QUALITY.
You can post messages on their site. You could ask to share their paypal revenues with you ...
Demain est un autre jour, j'espere avec meilleures nouvelles ?

Yeah was much the same when it was based on Carolina, never mind, we know who did all the hard work and that's all that matters.Jejy69 wrote:They did not even change the theme !We hope that you enjoy using it as much as we have enjoyed developing it.
Look at it as a compliment that your work was worth reproducing

--Jerome, I hope you will go and add Lxpup to Distrowatch. Let people know about the work you have done. All they will need to do is come here and see how long you have been working on this since your older versions.Jejy69 wrote:And after all that, no publication from distrowatch for Lxpup. it no longer useless, my progress on Gslapt, Lxde etc ...

Since you finished Lx pup 14, we understand if you take a break. But I hope you will consider still working on this project.

I definitely agree. I wouldn't have written it better. Cheers.natgab wrote:--Jerome, I hope you will go and add Lxpup to Distrowatch. Let people know about the work you have done. All they will need to do is come here and see how long you have been working on this since your older versions.

RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI not functioning
Hi Jejy69,
As you've brought a fresh breath of customization to Puppy, I always look forward to trying out your latest creation. Unfortunately, for the first time an Lxpup --whether based on precise or slackware-- has not enabled my system to connect to the internet. My adapter is a RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI. Two of the three internet access applications did not recognize my adapter. The third, I think frisbee, reported that it saw my network but failed to connect, Sorry that I can't be more specific. Currently, Grub4dos's Menu.lst does not include Lxpup 14 final among its choices. I meant to report the problem right away but got distracted. And since then several new Pups came to my attention.
Any idea why this Slackware-based Pup is unable to do what it predecessors could?

My comment Needs to be re-written.
The theme is that if there is a feeling of a moral injustice. Then is there some "will" to do the kind of things which can bring light to the contributions of developers whose work has been re-purposed without requesting approval for reuse?
The community can "collaborate" a solution helpful to all concerned.

Hello,
I wished to inform you about my intention to have a break, and to excuse me for my exaggerated reaction. A "light" trend to the impulsiveness. I do not wish to spit at the work of others.
Especially that the merit returns especially to B.Kauler and his team, 01micko for Slacko, I did not want to appropriate their work.
Nevertheless, I persist in the stop of lxpup. I do not manage to assure a suitable presence in case of bug ( And a lot of difficulty solving them also ), and I am not so present more than before.
I am going to reflect about it.
Here is... Next stage, I am going to take the wave! The Atlantic Ocean, here I am!
Thanks all,
PS :
If you get this error, install with slapt-get in a terminal like this :
Have a nice holiday !

@Jejy69,
Wishing you all the hapiness in the world, and we will cherish your offspring Lxpup. Seeing you leave makes me sad, but that is how it goes..... in puppy-land. A wasteland (wasting of talent - land)....
I really wished Barry would stop playing with his individual releases and would start giving direction. Gather talented people and give puppy some structure. Puppy is gliding downhill in a fast pace, and in 3 years there won't be any puppy anymore. Users don't care if kernel 2.6.33 or kernel 3.10.1 is in their OS. They want a nice, fast (it is puppy!) and easy way to browse internet, see movies, listen to music, skype and mail.
01Micko is trying (on his own, respect man...!) to push puppy forward in a Slacko series, parallelled and completely independent by Barry's own Precise and Raring and Wary and .... versions, while Pesamu's Upups keep up (also on his own, only driven by his idea of what pupp should look like). But what is PUPPY ..??? If I look at distrowatch, and see puppy linux, am I looking at Slacko...or Precise... or ....? Is the new version 5.71 or 5.6beta2 ?
And then there are brilliant developers (Jemimah, Jejy69... etc) that have the capabilities to lift puppy to a higher level, but they can't do it on their own. They struggle for half a year, are drive over the edge (because it is more work than they can handle) and break down, or simply leave.
And (look in the eye candy thread) there are cosmetic artists that can change puppy into something really beautiful. No appeal is done to them to use their energy for the new release.
Why is there no-one that sees a future in puppy. Why do we waste so much energy in "non products". Put all noses in one direction, and you would be able to create something great.
Similar on the forum... The forum is mirroring the same lack of decisiveness.
There are "puppy projects", and "puppy derivatives". No one knows what puppy is where for what reason. And Barry Kaulers puppies only show up in the section "bug reports". Why ? Are they not projects ?
I can imagine that there are differences in opinion between developers, leading to a multitude of derivatives, but a strong "main stream" puppy would attract new users. And if mainstream is Slacko ... so be it, but let's make that clear. If mainstream is Ubuntu Raring, OK, but set a roadmap to get somewhere. Make a plan, share it, so (new) users know what puppy is, and will be.
I guess I should not post this here, since Jejy69 can't help it, and neither can most of the forum readers, but I sometimes get sad seeing energy and talent wasted(*), and wonder if it could have been prevented. I think Barry is the (historical) one to take the lead, and the only one with sufficient buy in from the developers still here to be acceptable.
Volhout
(*)= yes wasted... because Lxpup14 is not finished (same as puppeee, same as saluki, etc..). So if it works for you, great, but if not.... no one to help you now.... the only pup that had long term support (appart from 2.14X) was 528. And that is why in my opinion 528 is the last mainstream puppy.
