Thanks for all the praise guys, I'll keep moving forward with the gtk3 2.14X version. I'll try to get some of it done this weekend Smile

Hi ttuuxxx
I've only just come across this thread, but my current machine is a supermicro server with twin xeons and scsi hdd
Is there a possibility of a scsi enabled kernel version...there is so little scsi support by puppy these days, and slacko is my current....
thanks

btw, don't despair....2.14X is way ahead in many respects, even without gtk3, and my old T30 IBM lappy runs really well with it, where others struggle...thanks

Edit: request made in 214X main thread, ta!

Still experimenting with this in between testing all the other releases. Laughing

Haven't done an exhaustive check but after installing the theme engines mentioned earlier there seems to be a little progress.

Installed your SeaMonkey 2.3.3 pet (since updated to 2.7.2) ..... had to edit the desktop file because the exec line was using seamonkey-2.3.3 as the directory but in reality it was just seamonkey.Simple edit.
Still running Top 9 on my old P3 like always and trying to move over to Top 10.

First off, thanks for taking the effort; there are more users of this pup than you think.

I did a fresh frugal install on my trusty Toughbook CF-T2 and noticed a small issue with setting the background image. The GUI does not seem to pick up all files in the backgrounds directory; it just lists the non-JPG files.

I haven't tried the last few versions of 214X so I don't know if this is a bug only in the GTK3 version, or if it's also in mainstream Top10.

Keep up the good work!
