PuppEX Xenial 32 bit Linux Live CD :: Build 160822

[exton]

My newest Puppy derivative is built from LxPup with the LXDE Desktop environment. (Why reinvent the wheel...). I have added Google Chrome (for Netflix), Gimp, VLC, Emacs and some development tools. If you want more you can download and load (Menu >> Setup >> SFS-Load-on-the-fly) devx_PuppEX_2016.sfs. I have compiled a new kernel – 4.7.1-x86-pae-puppex. Kernel 4.7.1 is the second lastest stable kernel available from Kernel.org as of 160822. PAE (Physical Address Extension) increases the physical memory addressable by the system from 4 GB to 64 GB. PuppEX Xenial is compatible with Ubuntu 16.04, which means that Ubuntu packages for Ubuntu 16.04 can be installed and used in PuppEX. The PuppEX Xenial ISO is of 585 MB.

The PuppEX system is superfast since it runs from RAM.

Went ahead and did a quick frugal install and have started tweaking.....

James C,

Thanks for testing PuppEX Xenial.

My PuppEX Slack64 6.3.2 will be ready later today. I hope you will test that one too. It will use the newest stable kernel (4.7.2) and have the Nvidia driver 367.35 pre-installed.

I know the information in the Twitter, I installed the PuppEX Xenial.
Japanese package by the Japanese team is valid. (LXDE and JWM)

I care about the Google Chrome.
Google Chrome does not provide 32-bit version already.
It is a problem of the future security and content output

[Billtoo]

I did a manual frugal install to a 16gb SDHC card which is plugged into
a verbatim usb card reader, computer is a Compaq Presario.

balloon,

Yes, you are right, but I think you can safely use "my" version of Google Chrome during PuppEX Xenial's life cycle.
