pupX set properties of X
Wary 5.2 frugal
pupX set properties of X > Screensaver
Usually I disable the screen saver,
but just now enabled it for a short delay,
and 'blank the screen'.
It did not happen !
I tried it with no apps running.
Is it broken?

Wary frugal. I get exactly the same error as in Racy when trying to print form anything other than the CUPS test page,

As don570 said - a row of triangle like shapes appear over the ruler as the mouse is moved (following the pointer), They go if the window is resized or loses focus, but return once the mouse moves again. Some artifacts down the left hand side too, though less noticeable. Definitely following the mouse movements though.

Thanks, Barry.

Puppy user since Oct 2004. Want FreeOffice? [url=http://puppylinux.info/topic/freeoffice-2012-sfs]Get the sfs (English only)[/url].
My attempt to update the multisession 5.2 beta 2 Blu-Ray to 5.2 final fell flat, pardon the alliteration. I told Burniso2cd to burn the 5.2 final iso to the multisession BD-RE disk without blanking the disk first. After Burniso2cd was done, I shut down, saving to the newly burned BD-RE disk. This has always worked with rewritable multisession DVDs. But when I rebooted, somehow it loaded the .sfs file from an earlier Puppy, one I don't remember burning onto this BD-RE. Naturally that combination didn't work very well, though it did work well enough for me to use Pburn and Burniso2cd. So I wound up blanking the BD-RE with Pburn and reburning the 5.2 final iso again with Burniso2cd. This time it worked, except of course all my settings from configuring the 5.2 beta 2 were lost.
My only complaint so far is with SeaMonkey. Web pages load slowly and scroll very jerkily. Also the CPU load indicator (on the right end of the system tray) maxes out sometimes when I have many tabs open. Then things really slow down. This hasn't happened in most other Puppys I've tried. I haven't the slightest idea what to try that might fix this.

Re: insert kills seamonkey

My solution is to reassign the Insert key. See http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=69175
The best workaround would be to set it so that the Insert key does nothing except in combination, e.g., Ctrl-Insert, or Shift-Insert but the best I could manage was to set it to become a second Backspace key.

For what it's worth, after installing the newer Xorg, glxgears is reporting slightly higher numbers and the gear rotation appears much smoother.

750 FPS with Wary 5.1.3.4.-uni.
The uni version uses about 15% less cpu; though it
doesn't seem to make much difference with video stream
quality.
It does run about 5 degees cooler.

I also responded to your post on my blog. Here is that response:
Actually, /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops is a symlink that I put in after discussion with rcrsn51.
Could you try two things:
1. delete that symlink. Then try printing.
2. replace the symlink with the actual file, that is, copy it from /usr/bin/pdftops. Then try printing again.
I think that the first one will fix it, but I am interested to know if number 2 also works.

Guys,
Regarding reports of slow video with Xorg 7.3, could you try this:
In the Puppy Package Manager, with "puppy-wary5" repo selected, type this into the search box:
"mesa"
That will find "mesa-6.5.2-w5c" -- install it.
You will have to restart X, then do speed tests again.

upgrade from 5.1.4.1 to 5.2
Managed to upgrade 5.1.4.1 to 5.2 but the following needed to be run manually from cli to fix breakage:
rm /etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders >/etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders
This is now fully functional and fast
