Hello,

Lxpup 14 is released. It's the final.

I removed the "current" repository of slackware, to avoid a disorder in libs. All packages have dependencies now, and gslapt is functionnal.
Pburn & Pmusic updated >= 4.0
zd1121 driver bug fixed.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/checkmatelxde/files/lxpup-14/lxpup-14.iso/download

I made another Iso, Lxpup "Badass edition", which uses the current tree of slackware. I compiled a fonctionnal Gnome 3.8.1 ( Shell works ).
It's just for fun, to see if latest gnome can works on Puppy. And it works

Why Gslapt ?
You can make your deposit,
Dependency management,
Packets can be upgraded/downgraded
Better compression,
More packages !
Add more repos
Installing from the command line like apt-get!

ISO : http://lxpup.weebly.com/lxpup

Cheers,
Jérôme

Oooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

Do you believe me now ?

[Gnuxo]

Yes I do.

OK, this ISO is smaller than the Gnome one, so I'll try an 'astuce'. I'll use the UC browser on my phone, I'll save the ISO to my temporary-file-station at Udisk, and then download it to my SD card.

This is great fun. I hope you release a CheckMate for the upcoming Slacko 5.3.4 also, please. The LXDE desktop is snappy, clean,and fresh, and is under development and testing by many people in the Linux community. The Qtweb browser is also very snappy, no spell check though--but any other browser could be added--there are even bookmarks--and it might be all that many people need. Oddly, it did not automatically connect to my ethernet connection as Slacko 5.3.3 does. And oh yeah, I can't find Lxterminal.

This is great fun. Great job.

I really like this light version, May use it for my next remaster

Keep up the good work

Thanks

Is this puppy based on Lucid or Slacko?

...Is there a .pet for Lilyterm? Because LXterminal doesn't do it for me.

Can't get wifi working on Checkmate.

I've tried Frisbee, Simple Network manager and Network manager.

Wifi always worked before on other puppies. :/

[Jejy69]

CheckMate v2 released !

@Gnuxo : based on Slacko 5.3.3
I look for Wifi, I think it is fixed in V2.


@ playdayz : Slacko 5.3.4 ? Of course! But I prefer to wait a beta version from 01Micko.
I try to solve the network problem, but I do not know what can cause this malfunction ... Lxsession maybe ?

Here's a suggestion.

Since, in some cases the games don't matter and the puppy is called checkmate.

It would be nice if the only game included was a chess game. It would make sense.

I've always liked QTweb. It's nice.

I'll try out Version 2.

I managed to get wifi working on Checkmate by the way.

The issue was Frisbee. Frisbee was malfunctioning for some reason.
...And once you install Frisbee, it won't let you go back and use the simple network manager. I didn't do a save file so I rebooted and didn't install frisbee and the wifi worked.

I was actually expecting nm-applet. Thank you for not including it. Nm-applet is terrible with LXDE, it disconnects every second.

I prefer the default puppy network things.

...And I actually like Lilyterm better then LXterm because it has so many customization options compared to Lxterm. And is still very lightweight.

...So I really don't care if Lxterm isn't there because I'd have installed Lilyterm anyway.

Don't mean to spam the thread but there is a very strange glitch with v1 and bash.

Every terminal gives a strange syntax error.

[Jejy69]

@ playdayz : This will be done with Slacko 5.3.4.

@ Gnuxo : Good news! I'm glad the system works!
Indeed, Frisbee seems to work on any of my spin ...
Yes, good idea, do you know a chess game in Puppy?
In V2, lxterminal will be already present.
