431 Final Observations
NOTE: I observed and reported items 1 through 4 below in 431 RC1 and 431 RC2. I am now reporting the same in 431 Final. Frankly, I am disappointed so see three significant problems ignored. Why? SQLiteManager and CPU Freq Scaling are important applications. Worse, we have all known about the SFS-rel...

While not a dev, I do enjoy tracking and browsing Puppy dev efforts. And it appears to me that Puppy is rapidly out-growing this forum. Looking down from 10000 feet, the forum is (sorry) a mess. I'm in my third or fourth year as a Puppy user and I still have trouble finding and following projects, t...

Slaxer_Pup is super
Joe, Just a note to share how incredibly solid and reliable Slaxer_Pup has been. You managed to breathe new life into my former favorite Puppy, 4.1.2. The combination of 4.1.2 and Slackware stability and hardware detection makes for, dare I say it, the best Puppy ever. I was using Slaxer when 4.3 de...

Size versus feature set
Forgive me, but I don't see either side of this discussion getting much traction. It does not appear to me to be an "either/or" matter and the solution is as old as the hills. Permit Puppy to remain small, easily downloaded and low resource while making it *simple* to select and install ad...

CD ripping issues in 4.3 final
Two observations: 1. cdparanoia segfaults in both 4.3 main and small kernel 2.6.30.5. It does not segfault in 4.3 main kernel 2.6.25.16. 2. Ripoff consistently dies in mid full-disk rip. It's cpu utilization then goes from ~1% to 90+% and the process must be killed. Observed in all tested 4.30 final...

430 Xorg/X related instability
I'm observing a particular and fatal instability in 430, both 2.6.31.5 "small" (am presently testing main) and 2.6.25.16. The problem seems related to Xorg and window manipulation over time in a given session. It tends not to occur during sessions in which there's little or no window creat...

430 standard 2.6.30.5 - significant problems (resolved)
Update: pup-430small runs very well. No issues observed. 430 standard 2.6.30.5 appears to be experiencing rather serious problems related to module loading. Results vary from boot-to-boot. I captured /var/log/messages on one occasion in which neither network or audio setup worked - at one point the ...
CAUTION - Safecopy - CAUTION
Just to let everyone know that running Safecopy on a floppy disk on my system works - once. Safecopy leaves the drive (not the disk) in an unknown and inoperable state. The drive stops working until the BIOS seeks the drive during boot. A soft reboot or power-off does not recover the drive! An attem...

Hi Flash, it's a hidden folder in root generated by flash player named .macromedia. If you haven't got one already just play a youtube video then have a look. You can delete the folder manually, create a script to delete the folder... Here's my solution. Just employ Pschedule to run this script per...

Beta 2 is excellent
Follow-up: I'm getting used to the Silver Marble icon theme. I may not choose to use it but I am beginning to like it. Follow-up: The ALSA wizard problem described below is seen on *all three* of my machines - a circa 2004 P4 laptop, a circa 1999 desktop employing on-board audio and a circa 2004 des...
