X-Slacko Slim 4.4r49 (unique, stable, and flexible)
I created a pupswap file on the usb stick. Can I copy it in
I created a pupswap file on the usb stick. Can I copy it in /root to use it while running in RAM?
New X-Slacko Slim iteration released
Changes:
* Linux 4.16 kernel (for meltdown and spectre mitigation, thanks smokey01)
* Mounted disk image now appears on thunar (might even work on pcmanfm)
* Headless mode (experimental, just put pfix=headless and it will mount the bootdrive as readonly, no persistence, also VNC server will be activated. Put scripts in /root/headless-apps which program want to start automatically before remastering it)
* VNC server is now included
* Some fixes

'@kuman probably it will work.'
It seems the pupswap reduces my RAM in /root a lot. I need to keep it above 400 Mb in order to avoid crashes often. I need to put it in /dev where my other 780 Mb of RAM is left. Is it gonna work?
Also I need to troubleshoot the sound (in uTube). What's the app in X-Slacko for it? Otherwise, I run the wizard.

compatibility
Dear mistfire,
Just an observation:
I personally expect that Slim will be used because it is
a/ slim (on small applications / systems / older systems).
b/ the clean windows NT appearance (personal preference).
In my perspective it is doubtfull if the person using Slim would sacrifice 20-30% performance to gain robustness against Spectre/Meltdown.
Question:
I do have a question though with repect to compatibility of Slim.
I have seen that like 50% of the PET's and SFSés simply don't work on Slim. With a varietey of error messages if started from commandline.
Or the behaviour is very different. (i.e. Pwidgets, that seems to live UNDER the desktop, and sometimes peep through).
Is there a way to improve compatibility with puppy, whilst maintaining the Slim way of working. Maybe the trimming in Slim has removed packages others rely on.
i.e. Take the full XSlacko, and apply some patches. Is this achievable ?
I currently maintain 3 puppy distro's because of this. Besides Slim, an older puppy, and a newer one. And one Slim (not so slim anymore) would suffice....?
Regarsds,
Volhout

mouseclick and delay in response
mouseclick and delay in response : it looks like mouse disconnect and reconnect (with audio jingle) both in x-slim slacko and tazpup...
How could it be repaired
PS : are users blacklisted in tazpup ? only geeks get answers.. That is why i ask here, in slim x-slacko.
Sorry, only Mistfire give answers

Hi mistfire,
About the compatibility with SFS's and PET's.
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 73&t=87503
That is the one that I tried and did not work, and drove me to write the question. It works on tahr605, slacko57, but not on slim.
But Also: KiCAD 4.02 from PPM, I think I can find back the list of everything that did not work. And Pwidgets....I would like to have the anaog clock and calendar.
Regards,
Volhout

Fact is since first versions,

these connect disconnect could come from
merci Mistfire, i saw that your will change the kernel.. However i will search from where these connect disconnect could come from. From time to time, i touch 'programing', seldom with success.. using 'méthodes peu orthodoxes'
Dpup Stretch playing now, no trouble with mouse..
What i have to say to be useful helper is that Windows 7 does as Tazpup and X-slim for the mouse usage
I plugged it in different holes, and everywhere the same.
