Dpup additional software testing.
most GTK themes segfault even when I comment those additional engines they use, I remember I could apply them without segfaults though on 4.1. Anyway I made a puppy compatible GTK theme Slikness Black-alike:

Hi Guy,
Seeing that you'd like to know what apps installed into Dpup-484 work as well ( mine is beta3 as I never did bother to upgrade to b4... having too much fun mate! ), I installed the following from "PPM-Debian-Lenny":
Blackbox-0.70.1
Fluxbox-1.0.0
Netsurf-1.2
These have worked flawlessly and without errors straight from the Debian-Lenny repo. Plus the PPM handled the necessary dependencies as well. I did need to create a "startblackbox" exe file in "/usr/bin" for Blackbox but that's par for the course.
Added to this: I installed my own bbdock from a Playdayz .pet file - can't recall the version ATM - but that works excellent too. Plus I've added "wmweather+" from another Debian-based distro and all the dependencies ( by doing "ldd" in CLI on the exe, yada, yada... ). Works perfect with the bbdock!
Let me think ( dangerous assuredly! )... Oh yeah! And the most important for me of all: I immediately added to the mixture before anything else MU's compile of "XFE-1.19.2, plus XFE apps and FOXlibs dependencies" ( which I believe he compiled upon Slacky-12 but works great here! ). I always install this first into any distro as I use it for installing software from .tar.gz files, sometimes .pets ( it comes with a .pet installer ).
There have been assorted and sundry other items here and there thrown into the stew as well such as gtk engines ( from Debian-Lenny and others ), themes, "small stuff", all which has been working/chugging along on this computer as happily as if it had brains. I guess this is one of the 1,001 reasons why I'm so thrilled with Dpup!
Keep up the fantabulous work Guy and others, please! I am anxiously awaiting the final - hope I'm still around by then!
Amicalement/Cheers!

I've been trying like crazy to get technosaurus' .pet of Midori to work in several differing versions of Puppy and it's been a no-go for me. Since I've had today mainly for a "play day" I've been here in Dpup all the day long just having a bonafide blast!
I got Conky ( my own version installed - not the one used in Pwidgets I guess? ) going easily. I just use that basically to keep track of my partition stats, CPU/RAM, kernel versions, and sundry items. To make sure that I have a background behind it I normally bring over "bsetbg" and "Esetroot" - they worked great ( of course! ).
Then I happened to remember, "Oh yeah! I've got the Ubuntu repos here! Let's try Midori!" Scanning through the PPM I failed to find Midori which I thought rather odd? So I went over to Debian-Testing and grabbed version 1.8.10 I think it was? I likewise did a cursory check for several .debs that Midori depended upon that aren't in Dpup ( like "libwebkit.so" and such ) and grabbed a few of them.
To make a long story short - I'm posting this from a truly beautiful and fully-operational version of Midori straight from Debian-Testing into Dpup that didn't take long to install at all.
Isn't having this much fun illegal in the USA? LOL!
I LOVE THIS PUPPY!!!

Oui puppy (toutou) est adorable.
Time savers:
Find packages in a snap and install using Puppy Package Manager (Menu).

Suggestion: Instead of having three different media players (MPLAYER/ BMP / OGLE DVD PLAYER) maybe leave only mplayer, drop other two and compile this new Enna media player frontend for mplayer which is very powerfull player itself.
dpup would be super cool with that , dunno if it would add a lot of dependencies though but if beep media player and ogle striped I guess it would save some space.

Actually....... I've got this itch to try things directly from the Debian (and other .deb) repos, just to see what works without needing Puppification. I've just tried Chrome in Jemima's pupeee, and don't like it. So if Firefox starts being temperamental again, I'll go for Seamonkey.
Incidentally, it seems Debian have dropped Ice-Ape (=Seamonkey) from the Lenny repo.

Amarok SFS
I've striped and repackaged amarok sfs for dpup, now it's 33 MB
Removed docs, mans, locales and some other kde shared stuff (also tried to remove crystal svg iconset which is 5+ MB but amarok looks terrible without it
Had to add xine libs which are no longer in dpup
Tested on clean dpup boot with pfix=ram
Verified to play mp3/wav/ogg/flac/audio cds/shoutcast streams, visualizations, equalizer and all other features should work ok the only bug I noticed is that tray icon is not properly displayed in tray but minimized in own window, you can disable that in amarok configuration, so it doesn't show tray icon, will try to fix that.
Here is the sfs: amarok-1.4.10-lite-dpup_484.sfs 33 MB
MD5: amarok-1.4.10-lite-dpup_484.sfs-md5.txt
Enjoy!

Re: Amarok SFS
Great, the sfs I've been using wouldn't work with dpup, however, it can't be downloaded because permissions are not set.dejan555 wrote:I've striped and repackaged amarok sfs for dpup, now it's 33 MB
