http://meownplanet.net/dejan/isos/dpup-485.iso-md5.txt

I will upload devx tomorrow.

seems ok. got connected in pupdial. havent had a blackscreen crash of the previous dpup as yet. only using for a short while. pwireless2 has been replaced by frisbee by jemimah in her isos.

Downloaded and will give it a spin a bit later.

Frisbee is suposed to be better with wireless? I could replace it I guess but since I don't use wireless I can't really know how effective it is. Thanks for testing aarf.

dont have a wifi signal to test at present either, is it better? no comment.

opera 11.10 beta Build 2067 and opera-next are both refusing to see the flashplayer plugin even when i copy it to its usual directory.
seamonkey sees it ok though.

I'll check out opera tomorrow.

Running 485 live pfix=ram on my main Linux box.Display and sound good on initial boot and as usual the network was a breeze to set up.

Everything appears to be working fine.

Hi, sorry I haven't been following everything in this topic, but this might help:

I have used it myself when having trouble getting opera to work with flash.
Thanks, Rob

New dpup!
Going to try (again) to compile a full aqualung when you post the devx.

thanks rob.
copied just two
libsmime3.so
libsoftokn3.so
from /lib/seamonkey/
to /usr/lib/
and 11.10 beta Build 2067 now sees the plugin.
some others were there already although a different size so i didnt overwrite them.
didnt work i opera next because i cant add the additional path of /lib/seamonkey/plugins into the menu>settings>preferences>advanced>content> pugins options window.
fault/bug is in opera next not puppy.
edit: had to symlink the seamonkey plugin folder contents into /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins then opera next will see it. and flashplayer will mostly function.

Cool tubeguy, I will upload it later today and some additional compiled pets like gimp 2.6.11 and Filezilla 3.4.0. I might try to compile deadbeef too.

Glad you solved the flash problem for opera aarf.

@dejan555
it is not completely solved, fullscreen opera works in other late puppies but wont work in dpup. i need it to play chess at uchess.com on my small screen. with dpup plus opera in full screen i cant move. minor problem that has roots elsewhere so dont really expect a time consuming fix. otherwise everything is looking rosy.

It might be because of jwm, it always had fullscreen problems. I will try to compile latest jwm and maybe some other window managers, fluxbox seems good.

OK, devx is uploaded dpup-devx_485.sfs 139 MB md5sum

Also some additional pets are here:
http://meownplanet.net/dejan/isos/dpup485-pets/

I'm gonna open new thread for this since I see there's some interest for this version.

Sorry mate...no wireless.


Will not connect on my Acer 10" Netbook with wireless.

Acer Netbook >> eMachines eM350-21G16i

Atheros 9285 wireless

""""""""

Missed out on Lan as well on this netbook.
Says it connects...but no go.

I had my desktop connected while I tried it.
On which I flicked to a few sites to be sure.

I can see the port light up straight away on the router,
so something weird is going on.

I rebooted...no save...on my USB again...to be sure.

Netgear router>> hidden wireless network.
The name is split............. and I have 15 keys

and >> WPA2-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 with Pre-Shared Key)

""""""

PWireless 2 won't run either.

So I could test wireless.

It should be in because this is how I beat router security.
