Info concerning Mupy 008.4 (Minisys-Linux)
Info concerning Mupy 008.4 (Minisys-Linux)
Hello,
in the last days there was confusion about version 008.4 of Muppy/Minisys-Linux.
As some of you noted, I no longer work for BSB-Software; the contract officially ends in early december.
As I am currently on hollyday, we just had contact via Email/phone, what has lead to some misunderstandings and unresolved issues.
To clarify these, we had a meeting yesterday.
Here are the results:
- The FTP server from BSB- Software (ftp://ks301128.kimsufi.com) was replaced with new hardware.
The old system was backuped before, but the new server is not completely restored yet.
- I will upload next week a new version of Muppy, version 008.4.c4.
-- This version includes several updates.
-- It uses Kernel 2.6.27
-- it includes the new "177" Nvidia graficsdrivers, so you have accelleration on modern Nvidia boards.
Though I'll no longer work for BSB-Software, I will try to help you, if you have questions concerning that version or older ones.
What I cannot do though, is to invest a lot of time in writing additional extensions.
If I do not find a new job until january, I will go to a Java course sponsored by a state agency.
So I already have to invest a lot of time right now in learning Java, and in searching a new job as programmer.
I want to thank Stefan Otto from BSB-Software for the meeting.
We could discuss these issues in a friendly and solution orientated atmosphere.
As far as the time allows me, I will like to help out in future, if I can.
You can expect the new version somewhen next weekend, as I currently am in northern germany at home, where we do not have any internet.
I currently write this message from a local internet cafe.
See you again next week, Mark

Good Luck MU
Hope to hear from you (and a new Muppy) soon.
As I see - times are tough, yet B optimist (imagine being a BROKER these days instead of what you're doing ... so calm down a bit). Keep on & take care.

Wonderful!!! (But not wonderful for your foot)MU wrote:Sorry for the late reply.
I had a small accident and now have a torn ligament on the foot (something like broken muscles).
For this reason I could not go home before yesterday.
I arrived at night, and this morning had to do some things in town.
I will upload Muppy later today in the evening.

Thanks for the update!
Torrenting is so much fun

Just a note that I'm currently seeding two Muppy 008.4 torrents:
- Muppy Live DVD 008 4c (puppy On Steroids) torrent - 1.88 Gb
- Muppy-Live-008.4c-EN - 764.5 Mb (Thanks, Dingo!)
MU (Mark): I ... don't really know if the "basic" Puppy has torrent software in it or not. But these two links have a solid seeder (or more). So, if these torrents are good enough, no need to go uploading more files.
I was hoping to get the same files that are available for 008.3f (the 3 different sized ISOs, and all the extra SFS files) for version 008.4c. I imagine these are integrated into the larger CD ISO... and who knows what's in the Mega DVD (2 Gb? Whoa!). But I'm currently seeding these two torrents.
If you want a list of the files I'm thinking of, that can easily be supplied.
Edit:
One question: what about acceleration for ATi video cards? Is it built-in? Or is it just not available.MU wrote:... it includes the new "177" nVidia graphics drivers, so you have acceleration on modern Nvidia boards...

BobSongs,
many thanks.
Muppy can download torrents with Opera, and also has PupCtorrent and Transmission.
Transmission also is part of many other Puppy versions.
I currently upload the new 0084c4, but upload is slow.
Also we need to clarify some traffic issues first with our hoster.
So I cannot post download-links today, but hopefully tomorrow/ as soon as possible.

Got me confused now (not difficult, though!).
Is this one:
http://dl2.ftpload.com/ozdppfriyscc/Mup ... .4c-EN.iso
Mark's new version 008.4.c4 ?
If not, has his upload been completed? Where?

008.4.c4 still uploads, and I need to wait for the "ok" concerning traffic from the hoster.
The upload itself should finish today, but then we need to wait for the "ok".
I will inform you, when 008.4.c4 is available.

This is the ISO I've been searching for. It is much appreciated.
Thanks!
So, if I understand you correctly, 008.4 is not what we want, but 008.4.c4, then?MU wrote:No.Sage wrote:Got me confused now (not difficult, though!).
