Agree 100%. The background itself is perfect IMHO.zigbert wrote:1.)
The solid color in the Pwidgets area is set to avoid the known troubles because conky and rox stretch the wallpaper different. A solid color will ALWAYS work as background for the widgets.
Of course. It was just a suggestion. What I was thinking of was the colour of the graph in the CPU monitor, etc. We could also offer a few (small) alternative clock faces to break up the area a little. Just my $AUD0.02c worth. You're doing great stuff here, Sigmund. Suggestions are just that, nothing more.zigbert wrote:2.)
How much orange on the desktop is a matter of taste. I find your desktop nice, but a bit too colorful for my taste . We are simply different. - Thats a good thing.

Geany is now almost double the size it once was 670k
How good is the new Beaver in comparison and how small?

well, there is puppy 4.1.2 barebones. you could get that and get addon sfs files. and if you want to make addons it's not too difficult.lilleguard-liste wrote:I can see there are many opinions considering making Puppy Linux a stripped down "as small as can be system" (SMALL), or a stripped down 99% functional "ready to use system" (FUNCTIONAL).
I've been using Puppy Linux and reading Barrys blog and the forum now and then for about a year. Today (considering what I have learned the past year) I would prefer a SMALL unfinished system and add the .pets that fill my needs. But, I would never have started to use Puppy Linux if it hadn't been for the FUNCTIONAL Puppy 3.0 which I downloaded and booted in less than 50 seconds and knew how to use without having to read anything else than Barrys short welcome message.
IMHO i think the Puppy community (may I say "we"?) should develop both. If we make a SMALL puppy system and maintain the .sfs/.pet-packages, I assume it would be a <5min job to add the usual packages and remaster a FUNCTIONAL system. Of course to promote Puppy, we could always promote the FUNCTIONAL remaster and let the SMALL puppy hide in the background. Anyone who foresees any problems with such a solution?
Suggestion on how to TRIM puppy furthermore: except than basic html, I do not know anything about building computer programmes or operative systems, so forgive me if this is a stupid suggestion. Is it possible to get rid of nearly all preinstalled drivers in puppy (i dont know if they occupy a lot of space, but I know that puppy has a lot of them considering the great compatibility) so that the SMALL puppy system only boots into a text based OS and automatically runs a "detection programme" which analyzes your computer and builds a list of drivers needed for you to download and install to get a desktop environment...? These drivers could be easily accesible to download and install (with simple commands written in a step-by-step welcome message). In this way unnecessary drivers could be removed from the iso-file (wifi, sound, graphic card...).
Does anyone know approx how much free space we could achieve by doing this?
