Wary 5.3.92 (5.4beta2)
See my blog for download link:
http://bkhome.org/blog2/?viewDetailed=00056
Forum feedback starts on page 6:

Wary and Racy 5.3.90 (5.4beta1)
Blog announcement and download links:
http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=03011
It has been awhile, over 5 months. Wary and Racy 5.3 were released on April 5, 2012, see blog announcement:
http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02784
So, we need to get another Wary and Racy release out there! The kernels have been left at same versions as for 5.3, and for future Warys that will probably never change. However, the kernel for Racy can be upgraded, as can Xorg, but I might target that for version 5.5 (the next after 5.4).
For now, lots of Woof infrastructure and application upgrades.
Please test!

Manual frugal install of Wary 5.3.90 to sda 15 on my old P3 test box. Failed to find the sfs.
Burned a cd,used installer to install to sda15 ........failed to find the sfs.
Finally installed to sda6 and Wary finally booted. I have 5 or 6 other frugals on sda 15 with no problem so......
Anyway, display and sound good on boot....... used SNS for internet and connection was persistent.

First Look:
Wary 5.3.90 incredibly slow even on decent (old) kit eg AMD2500+ with 768Mb.
The PPM Flashplayer options offered do not seem to match the SM version which asks for 10.3 or higher.
Otherwise, welcomed home and comfortable like an old pair of slippers.
Racy 5.3.90 - different ball-game, everything works and fast. Tyson present, where is the surfing mutt? Quick right click on sr0 causes its disappearance.

Out of curiosity, does this one now have dbus and dbus-glib included or does it make use of the nobus method as posted by Technosaurus?
Also, can I draw your attention to this post which mentions a problem with compiling Linphone in Wary or Racy 5.3
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=77303&start=75
Is there any chance that this might be resolved during the development of 5.4 please?

Wary working nice here on my IBM Thinkpad r51, PentiumM 1700MHz, 512 RAM shared with Radeon Mobility graphics @ 32M RAM.
1 issue. Cant get 1 finger tapping for left click to work, I couldn't in some older slacko's too so I guess it's the older Xorg or older kernel module.
1 request. That purple gui for mtpaint screen capture is antiquated! I made a nice GUI that takes screen caps here called simply "screeny". It takes window snaps, fullscreen, auto resizes for the forum (as an option), opens for editing in defaultpaint (as an option), can turn off splash messages for speed.. all in 14k (including the xwd dependency, compiled in Racy, works fine in wary).
