Video issue
I have had trouble playing some videos via seamonkey 2.49.4 - works fine in Slacko64-6.9.9.9, Xenialpup64 7.5, Bionicpup64 7.9.5. Video advances to (at best) advert and stops, sometimes locking up. Main site I've noticed is afl.com.au (any video in middle of page). Have tried adding extra gtk3 packages, changing about:config, turning off acceleration - no avail. Versions of Palemoon before 28.0 & supplied Light browser work. Any ideas?
EDIT: this is a GTK3 problem. Seamonkey64-2.48 (gtk2) works fine. If only it was secure.
EDIT2: apulse libs are in /usr/lib64 - apulse executable points to /usr/lib/64/apulse folder. When moved there, videos work!

Mounted volumes disappear from desktop and pcmanfm panel when attach external drive (pcmanfm bookmarks remain and function though).
Since about k 4.18.10 (through subsequent kernel updates posted and OS updates). Various obvious gui setting changes had no positive effect (pcmanfm/event manager). Tested when new OS 18.06 updates posted (without save folder) and same result. Thought it might be particular to this system but recent load (no save folder) to laptop produced same result.
Checkums matched prior to install. No idea if kernel or OS upgrade specific but sometimes pmount automatically popped up and sometimes not. (Pmount always worked as expected though.)
Reinitializing pup-volume-monitor-starter consistently works for me. (Plug in external drive, wait for volume icons to disappear, reinitialize pup-volume-monitor-starter and all volumes show up and fully functional again in pcmanfm and desktop.)
This isn't a big deal, just a tip for anyone else who has adopted this as their main and experiencing same perplexing issue and is of similar dubious skill level. (I'd gotten really used to letting pcmanfm handle drive mounts/unmounts.) Bear in mind it could still be something weird I've done causing this...

Problem can be traced back to change to 64-bit pup-volume-monitor-0.1.17 on or about 15-sep-2018.
Have reverted back to pup-volume-monitor-0.1.15 in delta 18.06+11
The dmesg crash with 0.1.17 is:

Thank you PeeBee, didn't expect you to look into it so quick, thought maybe it'd go in the lower levels of a punch list.
Volumes stay put with 18+11. Nice to have them arranged in the expected order. Pmount automatically popped up when attached external drives, doesn't bother me at all.
Everything else you said was way beyond me.
I am really liking this OS. Thanks again.

@ozsouth
to change settings on spec won't help you along.
find out what your SM version has included and what system components are used.
type about:buildconfig in address line of SM and press enter
look whether SM has been built with pulseaudio support or not
in case of built without pulseaudio you should find the entries ( --disable-pulseaudio --enable-alsa )
is system or internal libvpx used ?
in case of system libvpx usage you should find ( --with-system-libvpx ) and of course a recent version should be installed
whether SM has been built for gtk2 or gtk3 you can detect which toolkit is used
( --enable-default-toolkit=cairo-gtk2 ) or ( --enable-default-toolkit=cairo-gtk3 )
in case of trouble you could also look here

@norgo - thanks for your help. about:buildconfig makes no mention of pulse or vpx. SM64 2.49.4 uses gtk3. All I noticed is that videos didn't work until I put libs into /usr/lib64/apulse in lxpup64, & I had no video issue with xenialpup64 & bionicpup64, which both have their pulse libs in /usr/lib/apulse. And to confuse things further, slacko64 doesn't have pulse libs & videos play. All with the same Seamonkey setup. Peebee had the same issue with the same videos, but not in Chromium. I don't understand - it's not logical, but I'll have to make do with the workaround for now.
@ozsouth
for clarification, we are talking about 64 bit version of SM, right ?
did a short test in Slacko64 700RC3 and SM 2.49.4 (64bit) from official Website
build configuration shows:
gtk3 is needed
installation of alsa is sufficient for audio playback
internal libvpx is used
real 64 bit OS doesn't search for libs in /usr/lib they expect libs in /usr/lib64
if you are install apulse and the libs are going to /usr/lib Slacko will not find them
Ubuntu basing distros have a symbolic link from /usr/lib64 to /usr/lib
that's why they are working nevertheless if the needed libs are located in /usr/lib

Hi Peebee,
Downloaded +12 from the Sourceforge link, and md5 sums are very different. Just wanted to give you a heads up about it. Here's a pic:

First time I've ever seen this. I opened the delta file specifically, as you can tell in the pic. None of the other deltas, all downloaded to their ISO folder, has ever done this.
Why is it starting now??
The delta has to be applied to the very original iso with md5=

Xsane failing since 18.06+6
G'day peebee,
Still using JWM as my preferred Window Manager .
Used your latest delta (+13) then from the new iso, manually frugalled to my 64-bit Puppies partition.
Copied the savefile from 18.06+12, renamed to '13' from '12', and booted with no problem.
Better-Late-Than-Never Dept.?
Since 18.06+6, I have had no luck with my networked scanner (Epson WP-2501 multifunction) with Xsane unable to find it. There was no problem with LxPupSc18.06-6, but in 8, 9, 10, 12 & now 13, Xsane fails. I couldn't get Iscan (Epkowa) to work at all in these Pups - Iscan is Ok in some other 64-bit Pups (and all 32-bit Pups).
Did something happen after 18.06+6 to affect scanning? Anyone else tried scanning with LxPupSc64 recently?
Anything I could try to locate the problem or to copy from 18.06+6 to rectify my problem?
Thanks,
David S.

+12 updated to +13 using the delta. Pristine boot, then savefile update, then the 4.19.8 64b kernel swapped in and Slimjet 20.0.4.0 updated to 21.0.7.0 (downloaded the deb from slimjet and rolled a run-as-spot SFS adding the libs needed for slackware). Low level checks, sound, SNS connection, printing, USB drive mount behavior etc. are all good and the whole shebang is running just fine on:
Posting from that combo now.
12/21/2018 Update: Updated to the 4.19.11 kernel. Current lxpupsc64 and LxPupSc on both the i5 above and the Bay trail box. As above, booting and running well. Did all the file transfers (using an external USB3 SSD) and pruning in lxpup64 for the updates on the Bay Trail using pcmanfm with no glitches seen on that hardware nor on the i5 in daily use... Posting from the Bay Trail box now in Slimjet 21.0.7.0 64b run-as-spot from SFS

Pups currently in kennel :D Older LxPupSc and X-slacko-4.4 for my users; LxPupSc, LxPupSc64 and upupEF for me. All good pups indeed, and all running savefiles for look'n'feel only. Browsers, etc. solely from SFS.
pcmanfm
I'm still experiencing freezes in pcmanfm...
LxPupSc64 frugal, 18.06+12, stock kernel.
Problem is completely random, seems to disappears, then pops up again.
The window freezes, process must be ended,
then upon reopening settings have reverted,
also some glitches in the rest of the system (toolbar, etc).
Could it be a video driver issue?
Also, impossible to install VirtualBox with the installer, as in other pups.
Installer cannot create symlinks.
Perhaps it is an LXDE specific issue...
