ydrv's to change ScPup 32 & 64 to the LXQt desktop
Just a quick question. If I use that ydrv do I also get the libraries to do Qt development?

Thanks

Zoom - video chat software

Thanks Gordie for the link.

Is the second one ready to go for Slacko64?
Here is an already compiled program. Just download and install the .txz

Zoom has the ability to do screen sharing among other things...and there are a lot of tools available with the screen sharing feature.
I am not sure you can do that with Skype.

Replacement for Opera

I have enjoyed Opera in other computing environment and I am dissapointed that I cannot get it on Puppy Slacko. I am using Slacko64 6.3.2 that comes with FF38.8 ESR. I am just looking for a browser that will work well for what I want to do which is: use Facebook, including messenger with its feature...

I've noticed that the file i downloaded has 'amd' in the name. My laptop is a Lenovo SL510 with an Intel processor, could that be the issue?

Sfs seamonkey file

I think it's useful to give this pet for the guys who are still using wary or puppy 4.3x. I have tested it in wary 5.3 but it should work in all such old puppies. It needs only dbus and dbus-glib: in wary you can install them by PPM. In puppy 4.31 there are in this forum suitable dbus and dbus-glib...

Re: Opera at version 36 - pet to create menu entry

Hi All, As I explore many puppies, I prefer running browsers either as SFSes or from folders located on /mnt/home. As you may also know currently my default browser is slimjet. But slimjet presents a problem. Puppies may be built from Ubuntu, or Slackware or debian or, theoretically, any other dist...

Thank you very much for this answer, mikesir. When you say to "Remember to Save so that the changes you've made become part of your SaveFile/Folder which will take precedence over the builtin file. ", you are talking about saving the changes using the text editor like Geany, right?

Browser Linux

However the latest Puppies will run the latest browsers with ease. It all has to do with which libc and wh...
