Hi Shinobar,

I have your previous version 1.6.0.27.sfs currently installed. Should I un-install it first before updating to your new version, or will the update overwrite the existing jre and configure it accordingly?

Thanks,
Monsie

Shinobar
Might you consider making available the PET, please. LIve media users do have any means to have a SFS carry over from session to session. ... unless of course, you change Barry's system for Live media.

Thanks in advance

jre-1.6.0.31-1.sfs is working nicely in Lupu Libre, for both Libre Office and Google Chrome. Thanks.

Updated jre-1.6.0.33.sfs, jre-1.7.0.05.sfs.

May works on any Puppy 4.x/5.x.

The browser plug-in of jre-1.7.x may not work on Seamonkey. Use jre-1.6.0.33.sfs in this case.

I am using a program called Jubler. It works with Java 1.6 but not 1.7. Is it possible to install two different versions of java?

This a good option for those who use SFSs. But Puppy PPM is PET oriented. I know this has been requested before, but could these also be made available in PET format as it would cover both communities.

I am just one of a few DVD ISO with save-session use over the past 4-5 years. This approach from Barry and the community works. I did not understand the reference of "experimental" made earlier. If that is published somewhere, please direct us as Barry may consider addressing it. Also, I have not seen any statement anywhere which indicates that Puppy is moving away from traditional PPM use to a SFS based type of package manager, thus ceasing use of PETs.

Maybe its time I ask the more obvious question: Is there something that is done when this is created as an SFS versus what occurs when its a PET?

I ask because I have seen, for example, where the SAMBA SFS was actually no bigger (or smaller) than the SAMBA PET from those developers who provide both.

By asking this question, I, BY NO MEANS, am asking for any change in any direction. I am just trying to envision if there is reasoning I should be aware of. I am merely looking at the current systems implementation and current awareness of packing approaches (PETs and SFSs)

If someone would explain this, this could reduce these requests.

Thanks, in advance, for any understanding.

When possible, it would be nice to have an sfs file for the new jre1.7.0_07

Thanks
