 Lucid Puppy Puppy Package updater
Subject description: lucid "load" doesn't stop? |
|
I am updating my Puppy Package in Lucid Puppy and when I chose the Lucid universe update, the download seemed to never stop! I had a yellow pop up window that just ran a "Matrix-like" screen of thousands of words I could hardly read, they went by so fast! Is that normal? The first time I did it, I ended up pulling the plug, because I was worried I had gotten into a worm or something (no firewall loaded at the time). The second time I did it I just let it run with firewall up of course, and after I would say, 5 to 7 minutes it eventually went away--I have cable modem, so it isn't a speed/download issue.
Thanks for any info my way.
Mike

Yes, that is normal. It takes so long because the Ubuntu repos are being converted to Puppy format. There is an easy way to just update the lucid-puppy repo, which is all you really need to do and which is almost instantaneous.
Quickpet -> More Pets -> Update Lupu PPM.
