I've updated the wiki front page, to reflect name change-

http://puppylinux.org/wikka/HomePage

does ov 5.3.0 supersede previous versions, also is this a beta?

this is still the same all I did was renamed them did not change anything else at this time. the same iso and devx before the change. No beta the same iso with new name that is all.

Your wiki is linked to the 5.2.60 not to the 5.3.0 thread.

ov-precies 5.3.0 does not supersede the other versions just wanted to throw out there builds with different kernels;

2 for pae and 1 for non-pae

the 3.2.27 kernel in 5.3.0 is more up to date than the one in 5.2.60

thanks for the reply, corrected link so 5.3 goes to 5.3 ; -)

may add more info once the situation settles down a bit.

I have just updated the upup repo with gimp-2.8.2 and it's dependences by scabz. click on gimp and it will download the dependences.

I also uploaded more apps by radky

Cheers

Je suis très satisfait de 5.2.60. je peux travailler en Wifi. Tout fonctionne même le vieux grisbi de puppy 2 pour faire mes comptes. Un nouveau Abiword qui peut lire beaucoup de choses. Très bien,
J'essaierai OV-Precise plus tard. Je n'ai pas fini de faire le tour de 5.2.60.
I am very satisfied with 5.2.60. I can work with wifi. Everything is working well even the old "grisbi' from puppy 2 repository to make my money accounts. Yes, sometimes, we have real work to do. A new Abiword which can read a lot of things : very well. I shall try Ov-precise later. I am still discovering 5.2.60.

Pets added : pupsave config 2.2.2 and Xvidcap 1.1.7 (russian because the only one which record voice well). I now add these 2 pets everywhere.

Dont progress too much : Slacko was very safe for me, but i have problems with the last version : i cant shutdown. Sometimes the last one is not the best.

Hello, all you old and new yellers out there , and puppyists generally!

I've compiled a new version of the pek window manager (aka pekwm) especially for oy-precise 5.3.0. You can download it from here : http://limelinx.com/fef41

A slightly more formal introduction of it can be found on p. 3 of this thread: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 026#651026

Don't forget to also pick up one of the three menu creation utilities for pekwm, introduced on the same thread. (Doesn't matter which, they all do the job.) Or you'll be stuck with the very tedious task of populating the default menu manually.

Enjoy!

Any news on Ov Precise ?

Hello Everyone,

I have just uploaded fluxbox-1.3.2 and tint2; I redid tint2 so that it loads on the bottom of the screen.

Will be doing openbox and obconf in the next few days.

Enjoy

Can you build an iso with Firefox or an sfs for Firefox since normal users like us find it very difficult to use seamonkey ?

I could do that, but fireFox is in the upup repo for you to down load as a pet.

Hello Everyone,

I have lost everything for all three of the Precise puppy's I have done.

Had to reformat my hdd; Puppy could not access the 2nd partition anymore. Some how it got corrupted.

The laptop I have know and OV-Preices does not get along well with each other, So I will not be able to keep up with the repo-upup or do anymore on precise.

I will however keep all three ov-precise puppies available as they are now. so they will still be downloadable and use what is in the upup repo.
