With what version of Puppy will you be using QtWeb?

In wary 5.5, for example, forget it, it's a no-go, because wary 5.5 is missing too many libraries that QtWeb requires to run.
A bit late, but I think I am running 385 and not 386 on waryBabybarebones 5.1, without dep issues.
Edited:Correction: I am running 385 (latest one) on Tahr and 384 on Wary. There is no 386.
So you should choose the proper QtWeb version.

What is the difference between 3.8.4 and 3.8.5

#17 Post by Pelo »

QtWeb 3.8.4 installed in ISO Slegopen (Slacko 32 bits) . You Tube not yet tested.

:) QtWeb 3.8.4 accepted by You Tube. One of my vidéos is being processed by Youtube (contrast +1). You can do as Openshot, without openshot.
That is an advantage to take in account when you choose a browser.

What is the difference between 3.8.4 and 3.8.5, to know if i miss something ?
Medor will provide pet QtWeb to people asking for it here, forum francophone, for people speaking french, and others. (compiled for Slaxen, the newer Slacko of Toutou Linux Team)

You actually do not need a pet.

You can keep your QtWeb outside the pupsave, so you can use 1 QtWeb for several installations.

There is an archive on this page :
http://qtweb.net/update.html

There is also a long list of changes for every update there. I guess the reason for one version of QtWeb working or not working in this or that puppy version must be in that list. But I am no techie.
Maybe the change of the Qt Framework could be a reason? Btw, the version of QtWeb refers to the version of the QT Framework.

I love the zoom text only option (doesn't also scale images) and the click the scroll-wheel and then spin it to increase/decrease text size, before clicking the wheel again to lock that text size.

How French can change English to chinese

#21 Post by Pelo »

How French can change English to chinese ? Easy ! All languages are not available. Most of Puppy users learn English at school, so QtWeb has 'Anglicky' as default.
QtWeb was developed In Europe,and is as default in Hungarian Puppies as Slegopen (Version 3.8.4)

QtWeb 3.8.5 available from my MediaFire a/c, here:-

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 164#931164

I don't care what anybody says, this thing is so small it hardly takes up any space in the save-file.....and it's good enough to function as the main browser. It seems to function better installed as a .pet, anyway.

I've based it on Médor's 3.8.4.2.....and just upgraded the binary itself. Runs nicely.


Mike. :wink:

Facebook, you-tube are very popular..

Qt-Web has been included as default browser in many puppies... well, as soon as you are a normal user, Qt-Web quickly get you nervous... Facebook, you-tube are very popular.. but Qt-Web unable to go there.

Is it clever to provide low-cost browser in a Puppy if you must buy one to surf the web.. Palemoon is light and efficient.. Qt-Web is not friendly.
On fora, browser is essential part of an OS.. Why to spend time on icons, themes, bluetooth, Multimedia if you spoil your nice job by a low cost browser ! ISO is more than 300 mbs, with elinks qt Qt-Web as browser.. It looks likes a Mercedez benz delivered with a Renault 4 driving wheel..

French Relault 4 is tiny, but friendly. Qt-Web is 'nasty'
