FYI
I've got the original xkb which came with v1.08 puppy.
The 'print screen' tweak doesn't work for me (hu keyboard variant, puppy installed to hd)

off:
Though I'm happy that Lior polished the jwm, I don't mind the lack of this feature. :roll:

The size of the Dock is dynamic based on the size of the tray and the number of items contained. Only one Dock is allowed per instance of JWM. What kind of progr...

Thanks for the howto... I tried it with a TNT2 pro card and the 7174 driver. Works fine... Let me suggest some addition for this fine howto. Maybe it'll be easier to follow it step by step for a newbie like me... :roll: So you should clarify - 'the development addon' means 'usr_devx.sfs' file - 'usr...

Well, I should've done it before... So it's the mix of original *jwm-praga-at-night and the hacked parts of *jwm-original theme file. The output file is in the /root/.jwm/themes/ directory overwriting the original *jwm-praga-at-night file. I'll try to upload a screenshot somehow later. <JWM> <!-- TI...

Maybe I'm wrong but seems the theme-setup does not work with jwm 1.4 in puppy 1.08. Should be the jwm-prague-at-night file modified/hacked for jwm ver.1.4? Edit: OK, modifying the themefile has done. Till now I was searching for how to modify the icon fonts colour from the original black to a colour...

Thanks for your explaination. I was worriing that firewall affects the connection speed. Now I understand it does not. Meantime I've run the FW wizard in default mode. I see it is easy to change the FW rules. Does it have log file where I can check its activity? Does it have an alarm sign case of at...

Thanks edr4d, yes I'm going to install the 1.07 puppy's Linux Firewall.

As firewall only close some ports, I think the net connection won't slow down. Is it true?

I agree with pakt, but dowloaded the iso, burnt and boot from it.
The keyboard layout issue at puppy 1.08 seems solved for me and think most of us too.

It seems 1.0.8 will be out soon.
I settled down 1.0.7: installed it on an old hd and made it handy with lot of work. I won't like to start it from beginning and even won't every second month.
In case of hd install will be there any solution to upgrade from 1.0.7 to 1.0.8?

A feedback from another user

The instruction that lior2b gave us works fine me too.
Though with xvesa I haven't got any problem, with xorg I couldn't find solution to fix the Hungarian keyboard layout so far. After I installed xkb the way as it is written above my keyboard issue solved. Thanks lior2b.

Hi SamSung, I looked through the linked topic (and some others from there) to find how to tune my keybord and Xorg. I learnt that I should copy a proper xmodmap file (from other distro) to /root directory and rename it to .Xmodmap. I did it, and after I restarted X, the missed AltGr switch-key state...

I understand the language support is important for a distro which would like to be popular all over the world. But I don't think this is the major issue for puppy on the way to popularity. Much more important the support for the international keyboard layout to make puppy usable for different locali...
