skype 4.1 dependencies

Hi Pemasu: I used to be able to use skype 4.1 dynamic on dpup squeeze by loading the Qt4 SFS I had from your repository, with some other gstreamer libs it requests, and I'd downloaded them manually from the debian repository . On dpup wheezy it didn't work as it keeps requesting the Qt and pulse aud...

Hi sickgut Sorry about your frustration with Debian wheezy .. for my assumption if Debian performance is getting to be unreliable, no wonder if users will move to other distros than Debian and Ubuntu like Mageia. Forgive me for my random wondering ..I'm just a newbie .. but why LMDE 201204 is non of...

Thanks jpeps I use Iron browser myself because for me the chrome browser is the speediest, most friendly, yet the memory footprint is reasonable. I guess Iron is actually forking Google Chrome, they removed the hidden services that Chrome installs. The browser size is bit large, but doesn't bloat th...

Re: No Desktop Icon Problem with Exprimo 5x3.4.12

@Tman : In Dpup it is a different story. "Pwallset" seems to be firm. You can go to /usr/local/apps (in Dpup) and look inside Wallpaper and you will see that Apprun is there, that will run the hacked wallpaper setter for Pwidgets. (I haven't tried this, I just turned off the sidebar in my...

Re: No Desktop Icon Problem with Exprimo 5x3.4.12

Thanx Tman, That trick solved the issue :D .. it worked after deleting : PuppyPin & PuppyPin-CPY & PuppyPinTMP files from /tmp/.. though the PuppyPin file was only having backdrop reference for the "Pwidgets" application. After searching I could guess there might be an incompatibil...

In brief, my first two days was an ubunto user, then moved to the mother Debian, then this week i settled to be a puppy user...
