Puppeee 4.3X
ref. BT headset / speaker.
jemimah,
unfortunately no success with your BT instructions. I can hear the speaker producing klicking sound, so it is controlled, but when I play a song I get this:
aqualung --device bluetooth
no output driver specified, probing for a usable driver.
Probing ALSA driver....OK
-then aqualung starts.
But when I start the mp3 song I get this:
ALSA lib audio/pcm_bluetooth.c(audioservice_expect) BT_START_STREAM failed
ALSA lib audio/pcm_bluetooth.c(audioservice:recv) Too short (1byte) IPC
And I get this message in a loop again and again!! Streaming problem!
I was so excited when you announced that it works
With Beta6 I found a small bug with the sd card reader of my 901. When I boot the 901 with inserted sd card it will mount the card
with that green mark on the icon. If I mouseclick the card icon, the pmount puppy drive mounter shows up and my sd card icon disappears. After reinserting the sd card everything works fine.
I'm already curious on the Beta7

Hmmm, I did test with a slightly newer bluez (they release a new one every couple weeks). I'll update it in the next version and you can test it again.
The next version will be 4.0 actually, I like to update the major number when I update the kernel so I can keep them straight in my head.
Usb probing will change a bit in the next version. Don't know if it will fix any bug or not though.

I have some troubles with builtin curlftpfs.
This is the curlftpfs homepage example to test functionality:
does it work for you?
In my puppeee 3.5 it hangs terminal & rox.
P.S.: only now I realize the default FTP client has been removed not a problem if most users don't need it tho...

This works in Puppeee3.6

How to Hibernate:
1. Create a swap partition on your hard drive at least as large as how much RAM you have. It's not recommended to have a swap partition on an SSD, but you can if you understand the risks.
2. Append 'resume=/dev/<sd?>' to your kernel line of your bootloader, either grub's menu.lst or or syslinux.cfg, where <sd?> is the name of your swap partition.
3. Run 'acpitool -S'. It takes a few seconds to copy down.
4. Boot as normal, and with any luck, it will resume.

I just tried hibernation on my 900 and it worked great.
Wireless came back up perfect, I just had to adjust the brightness back to where it was before it hibernated.
This just hibernates, with no regular swap, right?
Swap would probably be a little much on the SSD.
Thanks
EDIT:
It also works as above on my 1000H.

I just had a major problem.
I had Puppeee installed on sda6, and I created a swap partition which became sda7.
Somehow, the drive numbers became switched around so that Puppeee became sda7 and the swap partition became sda6.
Needless to say I had a grub boot error.
After some fudging around with a couple partition managers, I managed to get both partitions deleted and allocated that space to an existing Windows partition.
Then I restored the Windows MBR from Acronis.
I don't know what caused this to happen, but since my 1000H is my primary computer, I can't take any chances on having it get messed up to where I can't recover it.
I will probably restrict my testing to my 900 for awhile.
Any ideas on what may have caused this are welcome.
Regards, Doug
EDIT:
I just recreated the sda6 partition, reinstalled Puppeee and restored the most recent backup and now all is well (I think).
I never had that problem before I created the swap partition.

When I booted from the SD card, the partitions were showing up as reversed on the drive icons as well as in gparted.
The grub installer wouldn't let me select the proper partition to install grub.
I don't usually have major problems like that, but I sure did this time.
Thank goodness for my emergency recovery resources, and frequent backups.

Me too for Dosbox. I have Incredible Machines on a PCLINUXOS laptop that entertains boys of all ages at our place, running under Dosbox!
Gwled(?) and Mah Jongg are favourite time passers, and you can't go wrong with a wee game of chess.

Here's a dosbox pet.
But you also need SDL (in case you do not already have it)
Let me know if you have difficulties finding SDL pets (there are plenty)
Note that I successfully run Sensible World Of Soccer 96/97, PC edition including commentary under Dosbox on my eee 701
(See www.sensiblesoccer.de if you are unfamiliar witrh this fantastic game)
Please also note that Puppy Arcade is more suitable for running games (far less overhead). It is possible though to run SWOS under Puppeee at full speed in fullscreen but then you have to use the blackbox window manager (which is easy to install and you can swap between regular window manager and blackbox)

Dosbox is a little bigger than I am hoping for to include by default. I did find some very interesting games though.
Two very beautiful and unique games from Jason Rohrer:
http://transcend.sourceforge.net/
http://lordmatt.co.uk/item/1122/
And xinvaders3d runs well

I also added
Gtans tanegrams and Xdemineur minesweeper and left a few of the existing games that did not have a problem resizing.
