Are there any new updates to Macpup 550? I'm missing this distro a lot. I stop using it because of some compatibility issues with chromium and skype. I hope they are still active in building new version of this Puppy Derivative.

Pelo · Macpup 528 renewed with kernel 3.0.25 (for wireless)

i am checking my Puppytheque collection of CD-RW and DVD-RW when i burn ISOs, a long time ago.
I hold Macpup 528 which runs fine either or my USB media player or my laptop builtin player.
Always i failed to run Macpup 550, black screen
Won't be newer version of Macpup soon ?
I gave up thy way of doing CDs, i know use pendrives, i download macpup 528V2 to taste again E17.

Good to hear from you bro and I am glad things are fine and dandy with you and your family. I will be leaving here Monday morning and taking my time moseying across TX. I should be passing through Dallas by Tuesday morning or afternoon.

Heading to South Carolina Mountains to ride the rapids and eat pulled pork sandwiches while I get my biker on.

I will wave howdy as I pass through on I-20. You guys tore it up with style with your puppy builds. Much respect from me.

Happy Trailz, Rok

Shucks. Another major developer leaving Puppy.

After pemasu, iguleder and so many others.

You're lucky I don't know you, runnitt, because I'd be giving you a mouthful. As a
facade, I'll be polite and wish you well, but now is not the time to abandon ship:
have you seen how much Puppy has dropped on the DW popularity chart?

And the next generation has simply not accumulated enough experience yet to pick
up where you and our other "dearly departed" developers have left off.

This is burning me:

Are you really leaving for family reasons -- politicians and higher management use
that excuse all the time to leave their post.

Or have you simply had enough of Puppy and Puppy-ists? Maybe you're fed up with
Puppy-ists' in-gratitude?

Tell us the real reason, please. Thanks in advance. BFN.

@runtt21

Thanks for your contributions. Macpup was a solid, fun distro and I'm sure it will continue to be used by new and old puppy users.

Kind regards,

I still have some Mac Pups, beautiful, stable,
and a tribute to keeping older hardware useful.

Family and career are high priorities, wise men
keep them that way!
Cheers

? No - +550 !! Thanks, runtt21- and prit - for a really gorgeous and uber-functional series of puplets. Moving hand writes, and having writ, moves on... much respect and gratitude to you both - I still have a collection of older laptops MacPup will forever be a part of Smile

MacPup was (and remains!) my favourite distro as it combines Puppy with E17 - two of the best pieces of Linux computing ever.

And moreover - MacPup is one of the most customizable and beautiful puplets as I tried to show in 'more gorgeous'-thread with my screenies.

Thank you runtt21 for you've done and I wish you all the best in your current activities - but what I wish you more is to get back to Puppy someday and create more great distros!
