I don't intend saluki to vie for the Puppy 6 title. I personally find building build systems dull so I'm thrilled that someone else wants to do it. Count me in for the "serious" team.
maybe1) will puppy6 have a system to update packages?
XFCE is being used by Saluki, there is a fork of JWM2) will you be ditching JWM in favour of something more maintained?
Your welcome, Lobster and CoolPup doing good things as well. Setting the information free. More editors and correctors always welcome http://puppylinux.org/wikka/WikiIndexAitch wrote:darkcity

Hi Lobster I read that link you posted, it sounded like a guy with a mission, but he didn't come across very positive, If he wants to fork it fine, it was done before with grafpup, also he said it would be impossible to have a gtk3 puppy due to gtkdialog, well I've prove with 2.14x GTK3 version that gtk3 can be added to gtk2 and it only increases the iso by around 3MB, heck 2.14X has gtk1,gt2,gtk3 and its still around 130MB iso.Lobster wrote: I was very pleased to hear on Barry's blog, that he is looking at Igus unique and revolutionary alternative to woof2.

Some of us are aware that Puppy will have to survive in a world where tablets are a norm rather than a prescription.
Take it further!I look at it this way if we can shave 5-10MB+/- off a iso why not?
Are drivers always part of the core? I have always been confused about what zdrv is. Is it possible to have a small, stable, tight core that is capable of automatically "pulling in" drivers (or requesting what it doesn't already have..) on a system that has new versions of hardware?tronkel wrote: So that's five modules that would need a developer apiece:
