Which PET or SFS of OpenOffice is recommended for use with Insidious, please? I started to load the openoffice-3.2.1.9502_en.US.pet but the pop-up warned about installing to /mnt/home BTW: That error message includes a misspelled word. _________________ Thanks!

hmmmm... wbar is not one size fits all, I bet a program is missing/changed. I may have to make a simpler version with apps we know will be in puppy. As for pwidgets I can't reproduce your problems Jim.. I will still investigate. __________________________________ I also had Billtoo's kernel source problem trying to compile nvidia-173.XX.XX.. maybe just a symlink. __________________________________ Xfce gtk themes don't play nice sometimes.

 Quickpet is the culprit. Wbar starts fine with that removed.
Apparently, I have a hardware conflict. I've tried Pwidgets as the only added program so there isn't a program conflict. Others have reported no problem with pwidgets. Thanks, Jim |

Nice review, thanks 
I added PupRadio back, it fixed itself magically, just like the GNOME-MPlayer fullscreen bug 
I think I'll build a 002 and write a full guide for building it during the process. I found a serious bug in my deb2ppm script, which screws up dependencies in PPM a 'lil bit. _________________ Shahor, my Puppy concept |

iguleder, just to let you know about an xlock bug that happens in insi (but i think it's woof): http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=472400#472400 aragon _________________ PUPPY SEARCH: http://wellminded.com/puppy/pupsearch.html |

Hey guys, here's the solution to the package lists problem. I uploaded it only for passionate testers
Before you run this one, do
Then restart X or run /root/Startup/download_package_lists. It will download a small xz-compressed tar archive with the package lists that came with 001. Around 1 MB in size ... it's great. EDIT: the 1.2 MB size is because of the xz compression. In the Insidious ISO, I'm pretty sure they take way more. I want 002 to have this thing instead of the package lists, they're big. I could make this script download Debian package lists and process them, but that would require a fast PC with Bash code or the devx if I want to use my deb2ppm script (for Perl). EDIT: had a crazy idea ... what if I wrote a script that compares two SFSs, then takes all the extra files from the second one, puts them in a directory and writes a pinstall.sh that removes all files that don't exist in it ... this could be sort of a primitive updating mechanism - I could turn this into a PET and make this dialog also download and install so-called "updates".

Another idea. I also replied in Barry's blog with this one. I could make all the special stuff in Insidious much more generic with a homepage field in DISTRO_SPECS. For example, the package list could be downloaded from:
In the case of Insidious Puppy 001:
In the case of Lucid Puppy 5.2:
In the case of Wary 098:
The distro homepage variable could be used for many other things, the possibilties are endless. This opens the door to smaller puppies that download non-crucial parts such as documentation and locales if the user wants to. Of course, this could be done through PPM, but what if it's a puplet or a Puppy that doesn't have its own repository? That's where this trick shines 
This could be used for "service packs", Quickpet and so many other uses ... I think it's a great idea. _________________ Shahor, my Puppy concept |

What about this as /usr/local/bin/defaultbrowser?
Should make the browser open on this page when you first start it ... well, theoretically. Not sure if it really works. _________________ Shahor, my Puppy concept |
