I discussed before at the topic of Lucid Puppy 5.1 development on the portability of the customized Lucid Puppy.
Of course our QuickSet edition(lupq) still keeps the portability with the customized one.

Imagine a lupq pre-installed your favourite browser, applications and language pack.
You can bring it with you to another PC, Internet café, or present it to your friends.

There are 2 options, remaster CD or USB pen drive with pupsave(lupqsave).
Remastaring is not so difficult using the remasterpup2. There can be some tips and traps, but I do not describe the detail here.

USB pen drive is so easy if the PC can boot up from it. Use frugalinstaller and grub4dosconfig both lupq has.

1. Install lupq on a USB drive, do not make pupsave at this point of time.
   The Furugal installer with Grub4DosConfig is easy and safe. You can setup all the things accepting the defaults except at the first dialog of the Grub4DosConfig. Select the target drive and recommended to tik on the 'Search within only this drive'.
   
   If you find the difficulty with boot up the USB drive on your PC, try the Boot Flash.
   
2. boot up from the drive.
   
3. reboot and make pupsave first. install nothing before making pupsave.
   
4. install browser, libflashplayer, any of your favourite applications and language pack if you need.
   
5. shutdown PC. The pupsave shall be updated and powered off. Then take out the USB drive

Thats all.

TIPS:

• Once you run xorgwizard, then the xorg.conf be sticky on the PC. Copy /etc/X11/xorg.conf1 to /etc/X11/xorg.conf to recover portability. And type next command on the virtual terminal to sync the keyboard layout.
  

  Code:

  keymap-set --load

  
  
• To arise countrywizard automatically, remove /root/.config/firstsetup directory.

Lupq desktop and some scripts are i18n ready but calling for translations.
See another topic Translate Lupq - QuickSet edition of Lucid Puppy

The 'CPU Frequency Scaling Tool' on lupq-006 does not work.

/usr/share/applications/cpu_freq.desktop
wrong:

[shinobar]

/sbin/clean_desk_icons on lupq-006 does not have the permission of executable.
The drive icons on the desktop may not be refreshed properly with 'Refresh Desktop' in some case.

Type on the terminal

Testing the Lupq-006 iso.

I am using FireFox 4.03 but it gives an error when trying to do Flash.

[shinobar]

Thanks for testing

How about maximum window?

I only have max looking at pictures of cars.

You mean one can have max when doing html?

I never thought of doing that. I am back in Q1.0 now and have to go to bed. If I do remember I can test next day.

Thanks seems to have cleared up and Flash plays too and no graphic problems anymore.

I like that one can enter a directory without having to wait for it to be indexed.

But I must have done something wrong because I don't have the Browser icon.

There is a Chose Default Browser in the tray but no icon on the Desktop.

So I need to either use that chose again or go into Menu Internet Firefox.

Would be cool to have the FF icon directly on the Desktop linked to starting that app.

Hello !

At first congratulation for your great job on localizing and making Quickset editions.

I made a hungarian language pack for lupq-006.
Here it is[url] ftp://puppylinux.hu/puppylinux/localization/hungarian/Lupq-003-HUNpack-02.pet[/url]

Only the icewm is my problem, won't display correctly the menu items but in my SevenPuppy07 shows nice.

What to do ?
