Whereas if that library was installed via an sfs it WOULD NOT become active, as it would be overwritten by the standard lib version?

Do I understand that correctly?

Yes.

You know there was a JP Puppy 4.3 release..Shinobar???

Maybe you could pinch stuff from there.

Since I have never used aqualung, I was unaware of the problem. Do you know whether is works correctly in JP Puppy 4.3? If so, I could look into it. Keep in mind, though, that I am not competent to fix "external" applications on my own. But I am open to incorporating other peoples' fixed versions.

@rerwin

I want to revive this project. I just had many other projects to finish. I'll add your packages to puppylinux431.com and maybe some updates as well.

Thanks!!

Kent C.

UPDATE!!!

Ok. So I've cleaned up and revamped the site! Puppy Linux Wikka is still active where you can also find the site. Since I want to truly continue my work on this OS on this version, [I already setup an old compaq on SATA HDD for my workstation when it's business]

I've spoken with the engineers at Brekeke.com and they have give us a special Standard License for the Brekeke Sip Server! Since I was the only one to ever configure this for Puppy Linux. We will be sponsering Brekeke Sip Server as part of their sales team endorsement.

On top of this, we will not only give you tutorials COMING SOON to actually route traffic via SIP [VoIP]. As we complete this for your ease and understanding, we'll also be doing specialized training on this proxy server exclusive to puppy linux 4.3.1!

Imagine, now you can use puppy linux as a legitimate phone system using SIP!

This is the new venture and just want to let everyone know please standby while we sort this new arrangement!

UPDATE LINK: Thank you,
Kent C.

Toutou Linux is Puppy 431 translated to french. A light remasterization has been done with Frisbee and wireless, and some light adds in multimedia.
The version number is 436 but it's a puppy 431 (2015)
ISO 114 MB available sourceforge.net by asriedu here

@KentC: Your link is a joke. Nothing loads in opera.

Yes looks like the site has lapsed. Like development around here.

I see
woofeCE has been forked into Librewoof CE by Iguleder. Librepup.

Hi, darry.

Do you have an URL for Iguleder's fork? I can't find it.
It seems I've got two left feet tonight...
Thanks in advance.

Phew. Two regular feet again.

is the URL for Iguleder's fork.

BFN.

Whatever happened to darry1966, he did some good work with new libraries for old puppys? I see his last post was in March 2016.

Yeah, I wish there was less "critical commentary" from some of the other posters and more "do stuff". It was great when Darry was doing his tinkering. I think he changed his forum name then went AWOL.

Absolutely, we need people who know their stuff. mikeb is another one I miss, helped me a lot when I knew nothing about linux. The latter PM me once after he left the forum to say hello. I should have asked him why he left (probably on his yacht somewhere).

Didn't Darry update Stardust 431 with newer Glib's? As for Mikeb, I too had an email from him; he then went 'off the radar'. A great pity, two excellent individuals.

I last bumped into Darry around a month ago, on LinuxQuestions. And I also understand he's active in a couple of FaceBook user's groups.....as well as whatever forum is dedicated to Devuan; he hates systemd..!

He's still about. Just got fed up with us lot, I 'spect!

As for Mikeb....there was a man I could relate to. Great character, and pretty knowledgeable, considering, as he confided to me, he was completely self-taught.....right from the moment he had a 'play' with a 'Trash-80' in a Tandy store one day in the early 80's.....

I have just read all 10 pages looking, hopefully, for an answer.

I am thinking of farewelling my faithful 3.01 with kernel from 4.1.2 and moving to 4.3.1. ( No comments regarding this please,)

My question is, "Is it possible to import the Stardust, grey, blue-3d GTK theme into 4.3.1 and if it is how?"

I believe Zigbert calls the Stardust theming Dude:

Thank you but the Stardust GTK theme I refer to is the one that shows, as one of many themes, when you click:

Menu>Desktop>GTK theme

Another issue is that I am unable to click on the picture and get the remaining pictures.

I wish - this is just an example!!

Frugal install of 4.3.1 and seamonkey 2.26.1.

FWIW the same happens with a frugal install of 5.2.8 and palemoon 25.8.1

In puppy 412 go to /usr/share/themes and copy the theme folders you want to carry over to somewhere you can access it. Paste it to /usr/share/themes in the puppys you want to carry it over to.
