While it's downloading I made a wallpaper:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 807#376807
It's about 75% down now could be downloaded if I haven't limited rate to 32 KB/s I just hate when wget takes all of bandwidth and you can't open even simple page

I've upgraded from 482beta5 and there are some immediate problems:
Puppy Console shows a space between each typed character l i k e t h i s.
Draw points to inkscapelite and therefore does not work.
Rightclick on a file and select Open as Text. Close and select another file and Open as Text. The originally selected file is opened as text ??
Osmo fails to run producing this error:
/usr/bin/osmo: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libdbus-glib-1.so.2: undefined symbol: dbus_watch_get_unix_fd
Firefox fails to run producing this error:
/lib/firefox/firefox-bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libdbus-glib-1.so.2: undefined symbol: dbus_watch_get_unix_fd
Thunderbird fails to run producing this error:
/usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird-bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libdbus-glib-1.so.2: undefined symbol: dbus_watch_get_unix_fd

Is that with pfix=ram or you loaded old savefile?

I should have pointed out, that with the new backend, an upgrade would be problematic...Sorry for not mentioning this earlier...with the total change in system core libraries, a clean upgrade was never really going to work, as I haven't ever worked on the upgrade scripts in base Puppy....not got to it yet.

Yes that was my first thought, anyway Terryphi try it without loading savefile then mount savefile and copy your files over, not sure if this would work but after mounting old savefile you can do this from mounted directory in terminal:
Anyway I just downloaded it and I'm booting it in few minutes

Dang it, at work again. But this is a day early from my perspective! Thanks, now I have something to do instead of watching the freaks in Times Square.

Well situation is different on my side there is no draw icon, gposil you can move some of other icons on it's place, maybe control panel icon or forum icon?
Firefox/chatzilla work, I'm writing this in it.
@micko01 How do I use this pupradio, I entered custom name and media url and clicked on "Play" button (not saved bookmark) but nothing happens, should mplayer start up or what? If I click on preset it works. Now listening this Rebel FM.
Now to some deeper testing...

So far I noticed some unusual rox-filer /rox pinboard thing I think it has focus issue or something, but maybe it's just me:
Sometimes when I right click in rox filer it opens jwm menu as if I'm clicking on pinboard instead
I really like the green terminal font it's so geekie

This is an unfortunate side effect of upgrading gtk2. If you watch closely, you will notice that file #1 still has focus in ROX after you close it. So when you move your mouse to file #2 and right-click, file #1 gets opened again.
There are two workarounds:
1. Put ROX in double-click mode.
2. Use

double click sucks
gposil, debian repos are not configured in petget by default? how do i add squeeze repo, that's the one we can use now is it?

You can also just click on rox folder background so it unselects previous file.

gposil,
Dpup484 runs great, however, I have same problem noted above by dejan555 when trying to download devx. Also, ppm doesn't connect to any of the debian repositories.
I have a full installation, does the synaptic that was developed with 482 work with 484?
Happy New Year,
Jim
