v4 testing.

Finally was able to put the wep key in to Frisbee without error. Appears to detect my network and connect to it, however it never manages to acquire an IP address. I rebooted and Frisbee connect to anything on startup.

I'm guessing that some other network manager auto starting and conflicting with Frisbee. Or it could be some error with DHCP.

Even after Frisbee says it connects, checking Frisbee's network stats monitor verifies indeed that no wifi connection was made at all.

That's confusing to me. Why won't it acquire the IP for me but it did for you?
Could it be an error with my wifi driver?

For those who might be wondering, I believe you'll find that the correct MD5DUM for v-5 is:

MD5: 9d824e0c168459cddb7b5096673c3964 CheckMate-V5.iso

...and not that quoted on the front page. ;)

Chromium from the slacko repository won't run on check-mate due to missing libs.

The missing libs are part of seamonkey and have been removed as seamonkey has been removed.

I made a pet of the seamonkey libs only and if this is loaded then chromium does work.

You can also load seamonkey complete which also works.

The full set of libs is probably overkill but it seemed easier to include them all rather than work out what was needed.

Cheers

p.s. Frisbee and wifi now working fine in v5 - thanks - also tested pnethood for samba shares and that is also working as expected.

So far everything is working, can confirm that Chromium won't work.

I even did a quick remaster and everything is doing just fine.

wbar runs great on checkmate as well.

Hello guys !

Thanks for reports !
@ Gnuxo ; Hoo-Ha ! Finally...

@ peebee : Thanks, libs will be intregrated in the next and last version. :D

@ oldyeller : Chromium will works, in the next ISO :wink:

Okay, I think the last ISO will be upload, The next steps will be, updates of LXDE, and rebasing Slacko when 5.3.4 comes out.
That, I think we got there, the final version.

For the last ISO, updates'll be :
-Frisbee, default wizard
-browser libs
-updated "GetFlash" to fix the error "No connection".

Thanks all ! :D

Jejy69 keep at it. You got a very nice derivative going, probably the best Puppy I've used so far.

Am definitely waiting for the final!

Hello Jejy69,

The next slacko will not be out for months because the main person behind Slackware is doing you could say a overhaul of it.

so the nest one will be a Alpha look at the thread for 5.3.4

I re-downloaded and burned this time it did boot, but went into a blue screen with tabs for the Internet, work, learn, listen and preferences and could not get out of it.

Sorry

Just a quick test live pfix=ram and v5 appears to be working fine here. The md5 here is 9d824e0c168459cddb7b5096673c3964.

Oops ! ! ! In the final ISO, I inadvertently installed Lxlauncher .. I'm sorry...
I will remove this stupid thing...
You can remove Lxlauncher in /etc/xdg/autostart and it will not launch at all.

Sorry for the inconvenience

Oh, I see, I couldn't find it in v5 but there is a new iso. Great. But actually, maybe a launcher would be a good idea, since there are no icons on the desktop as in usual Puppy--I like the clean look but maybe I could use an alternative to the Menu.

OK, maybe lxlauncher is not the one ;-) But maybe PupApps?

To get the Panel prefs, right-click on the panel to get a transparent panel.

Gnome-mplayer. There is a problem with gnome-mplayer 1.0.5 with View -> Half Larger, that I think is fixed by gnome-mplayer 1.0.6 from the Slacko repo (and fixed in Slacko 5.3.3.2)

I was going to try Yeahlauncher on LXDE. True it's very lightweight and arguably one of the lightest launchers around but I like to keep things small.

Another launcher to try is Badbar2 which was made for BadWM but I want to try it on LXDE as well.
