XBMC for 5.25 Puppy or similar functionality
I've searched the forums and it seems no one is interested in XBMC for Puppy. How come? Or is it just not possible or practicle?
I like the Clementine library for music but would like a similar system for videos as well. With Clementine I have a problem with titles containing nordic letters (å ä ö Å Ä Ö) when the titles are ripped on a windows machine but this can be worked around by renaming the files in Puppy (running UTF-8 ) using the same identical letters...
I'm using Puppy 5.25 on an FujitsuSiemens laptop which may be too old and slow for XBMC but I would like to try.
Thanks in advance!

thanks James C for the quick reply. I will try it out as soon as I get home tonight.
Could I get away with a smaller pupsave file by installing to HOME or by using a sfs instead of the pet ?
I have the impression that it's rather easy to make a sfs file from a pet, but I've never tried...
Also, would anyone give a qick tip on how to install programs to HOME in order to save pupsave even thoug it's probably described elsewhere in the forum.
