here's nearly all the icons for gogglesmm. The only one that's missing is the volume icon for the mini player. Ask pemasu about that, as he found the solution (i can't remember exactly, think he needed to rename an icon).

Any particularly reason why you're using such an old version?

Just did a bit of reading, sounds like quite a vacation spot. HAVE a very good fun time. Glad to see you get away from the grind for a while. How the new little girl doing? Bet growing like a weed. Opposite weather this neck of the woods... stating to cool off, and trees loosing all the leaves. Halloween here yesterday.

Keep well, have a great time. Don't take a laptop! Vacation!

Naaa I would never take a laptop or a Ipad device, but I've been on cafe world for 184 days straight and well I don't trust public internet or internet cafe's so I'll have to let it go, but some of the attractions we'll be seeing are http://www.austtravel.com.au/dreamworld_tickets.htm and http://www.ccrr.com.au/
I'll post a family picture soon, we did get trapped into spending $1000.00 for photo's about a month and a half ago, so we now have about 100 photo's on disk.
actually I sent my parents a poster size family photo a couple of weeks ago, they really loved it.

From http://www.wisdom-seekers.com/puppy214x.html I am getting the links for 214X-RC5.iso. Where can I find other iso's for 214X releases?

One more thing, where can I find the standard puppy iso files prior to puppy version 215?

Sincerely,
Srinivas Nayak

I purchased a Amaze Radeon HD5450 1GB GDDR3 PCIe2.0 Video Card with HDMI video out on ebay a few months ago for around $40 including shipping, which was a special deal they had on for one day, This card was purchased to replace my other video card on the multimedia pc for the main 42"LCD tv, well Being such new technology I didn't think it would work on 2.14X, but I powered it on and it worked, in fact it works way better that the previous S-video out card I was using, before I had to run the Xorgwizard and do a screen test then I would have to select Generic drivers and do another screen test and then Svideo would work, but this time I just do the regular monitor test and thats it, Also before the computer screen would have a black X in the middle of the screen, now there is no black X, before the movies played pretty clear on the lcd tv, but the default labels on the desktop icons on the tv were very hard to read, but like I said the movies played ok, Now The desktop icons labels are perfect to read and the movies are verrrrry clear and clean, wow such a big difference in picture quality from MSI 7300LE 256MB to Radeon HD5450 1GB GDDR3

Well, I've been out of touch for far too long and that's meant that I've not responded appropriately to my responsibilities here. I owe you guys an apology for that.

The 214X mirror has finally been updated. Please let me know if you find anything that needs to be changed or added.

Thanks,
Sully

First time tring out 2.14x (top9) and Google Chrome is the first thing I tried to install. Immediately libgcrypt.so.11 is missing.

Also try to install Gimp from the PPM, again another lib and gtk+ were missing.

I am sure there are ways to fix them but I just booted from the CD and tried to install a few tings that are for 2.14x.

Is there anything that should be installed? Or can that be included in the iso?

Thanks,

Booted TOP9 from CD and had forgotten how
it tenaciously grabs any likely save file to use
from the hard drives. As a consequence the
save file it used was corrupted and rendered
useless but still mountable from other puppies.
I was able to extract everything I needed so it
was just an inconvenience.

Is there any way to keep 214X from aggressively
using any save file it thinks is appropriate at
first boot (other than pfix=ram [F2 Option] which
whizzes by rather quickly?)

It would be nice if PWGET was replaced with
PWSGET to enable the ease of secure downloads
where Login and Password are needed.

Otherwise TOP9 looked good - I'll devote more
time to walking it in the near future to see if there
are any quirks. Many thanks ttuuxxx!

I have the same problem.
Before booting to 2.14x save file, I boot to pfix=ram, then temporarily rename the other save files--from .2fs or .3fs to .doc. Then 2.14x doesn't see them.

I downloaded and did a full install of Top9 and I am having a couple of problems. Firefox won't run, and Gxine won't run. I have tried running both from the terminal to see if I get any error messages. The only message I get is "Illegal Instruction". With Gxine there is a jump in cpu usage for a second or two, but then it drops back down and the words "Illegal Instruction" appear in the terminal window. It's as if gxine tries to run but then does something "illegal" and gets shut down.

At the moment, it doesn't matter if Firefox runs or not because 214x top9 doesn't see my modem. Are there any plans to add any more modem drivers? Maybe add all the ones puppy 4.3.1 has? I say that because puppy 4.3.1 sees my modem ok. It is what I am running now as I post this.

If it will help, I am running a Compaq 7470 with 192 megs of ram. The hard drive has a 1 gig swap partition on it. The rest of the 30gig hard drive is divided into two partitions. There is a full intsall of puppy 431retro on the first one, and a full install of 214x top 9 on the other.
