Yes, Imgv on puppy would have been great.. but looks like it has many dependencies that might not playmuggins wrote:Wilsonb,
you didn't answer whether you're aware of any other slideshow apps that met you're specs...so presumably, the answer is no?
With regard to installing Imgv on puppy, you're between the proverbial rock & hard place. I'm guessing that one of the things that you like about puppy is it's small size? But then you're after an app that needs Python, Pygame & Pil...decisions, decisions? From what I can see, your options are to take the hard route, & try & port this yourself, or look for a larger, python friendly, distro.
Is there a slide show dotpup?
Wilsonb,
a quick google reveals that picasa can, apparently, run slideshows with fade effect. This app works in puppy. Whether it meets your requirements only you can judge.
Ditto for this one:

Which is available here:

I might download this one & try compiling it:

Picasa would be good, but would not run. Gave me bin error message. Will post more specifics when in front of it.muggins wrote:Wilsonb,
