Sounds like it wants an older or newer gtk.
The build from the min website wants newer gtk than one of the builds on here.
Suggestion...try a different build of min
I got it to run on lucid but that did require a gtk update.
... gtk 2400 ... but the min website build wanted newer than that.

I have GTK+3-3.8.2 installed!
This is the same error I get with any chrome-based browser later than
version 59

The sfs I got from this thread of 1.7 was compiled to use gtk 2 so I assume its a build option though I used the 32 bit version I see no reason the 64 bit could not after all it will have exactly the same interface function calls.

I got GTK+3-3.8.2 from the Puppy package manager. I assumed the package manager would properly install it.
Is there some action I must take to turn it on?

@ orrin:-
Just out of curiosity, where does pFind show your gtk-3.0 to be installed? Is it in /usr/lib64, or /usr/lib? For Slacko 64 6.3.2, it should in be /usr/lib64; the Slackos don't use the sym-link to /usr/lib that the 'buntu-based Pups have.
I have a feeling you'll also need gdk-3.0, as well..... Y'know, just out of curiosity, have you tried any of my current Chrome packages recently? All the libs & stuff required by Chrome are within a sub-directory inside /chrome; all self-contained nowadays.....
Mike.

I downloaded version 1.8.0 for testing
has somebody noticed that the min-1.8.0-amd64 package is using the /usr/lib path instead the /usr/lib64 ?

Perhaps we need a volunteer to make a consistent puppy friendly build.
I never did find out who built the sfs that I run on Lucid.

I prefer not to use Chrome! I do not like Google watching everything I do.
I really like Slimjet... are you going to make an SFS of that with all the
contained libs? I'm running the Slimjet based on Chrome 59.

When I use Chrome and view a Murga forum post I can right click on the icon at the top of a post and save the link (to identify the exact specific post).
However when I do this in Min it only gives me the address of the icon - not the unique address of the post.
Any suggestions how I can identify the unique url of a specific post using Min?

g/g
Not a Min user but your problem looks like
a.) The browser cannot/doesnot use a 'gif' as a link
b.) Following that, can it link using jpg or png?, text-link only?
May be a setting in the browser to adjust this.

The strange thing is - it can link from the gif ok (clicking it takes me to a specific post). Min obviously knows what the link is pointing too, but just won't tell me what that is when I rightclick it.
Just an oversight i guess.
Another related question though: where does Min display the url of the page you are currently viewing? Sometimes I want to be able to copy that url and view it in another browser or save it to a document - but how?

Looks like min has become 64-bit only on Linux from version 1.10.0
1.9.2 is last i386 version
