dpup-47x for testing
amarok pet uploaded to http://dpup.org/dejan555/
If you want kde apps but no kde DE take kdelibs pet only
Then you can install amarok or other kde apps dependent on kde libs,
if you want full desktop enviroment download kdelibs+kde pet
with kde pet you get konqueror, ksnapshot and konsole
kpdf and kopete are here
for gwenview download gwenview deb and libkipi from lenny repo
optionally you can get kipi plugins for some editing capabilities but i haven't tested all dependencies for them
I believe gposil had digikam somewhere?

Oh, btw ttuuxxx, your gimp patch doesn't work, I deleted .gimp-2.4 folder then installed your pet and it output error again. It works anyway after second startup.

Hmmm,
On the driver thing, BarryK said that Ubuntu drivers probably wouldn't work, some might. http://www.puppylinux.com/blog/?viewDetailed=00559 (near the bottom of page)
Cheers, Mick

I'm downloading the latest version, could you post the link to the devx, and also the kernel source for this version.
I'll have to recompile the kernel for the XO project, It will be based on either Dpup or Upup, I prefer Dpup but I guess we'll see how the kernel compiles

There is a usenet newsreader called Pan in the Dpup repository at ibiblio, it was packaged for 48x series dpup, but should work in 47x.
Try it

Thanks. Seems to be working okay, (but only after uninstalling andgposil wrote:There is a usenet newsreader called Pan in the Dpup repository at ibiblio, it was packaged for 48x series dpup, but should work in 47x.

re-installing because it wouldn't retrieve messages to some groups).
BTW: it installed under 2 menu entries: NETWORK and INTERNET.
Hi otropogo
Not as yet (er, multi-user?).. it has been briefly discussed. It is probably a future thing once other problems are sorted.

Yes, I meant to write multi-user, but actually I only need a way to go online without being root. The security issue this presents in Puppy has me constantly using two separate machines with all the attendant costs in noise, space, record keeping, etc.. I can't continue much longer that way.01micko wrote:Hi otropogo

OTOH, having just read Pizzasgood's detailed instructions on transforming the current Puppy into a multi-user OS, I despair of ever succeeding by that route.
As much as I hate to start over with another distro and another user community, I'm starting to wonder whether I shouldn't jump over to Mint or SLAX.

otropogo, latest dpup beta has "SafeBrowser" which starts firefox as user "nobody" after you quit it nothing is saved, session runs and removes from /tmp after exit

If you're using another dpup version and don't feel like switching to latest, you can always run as spot:
or this might work even:
Code: Select all
su spot
defaultbrowser &
Code: Select all
su spot -c defaultbrowser

If I understand Pizzasgood's latest post about the false security of going online after booting Puppy with pfix=RAM, neither SPOT nor the safebrowser can stop a knowledgeable hacker from covertly gaining control of a Linux system running online as root.
OTOH, the limitations of both approaches are enormous.
It's not the browser that's the problem, it's running online as root, as xfprot is at pains to remind users.
As I understand it, If one's system is modified during an online session, deleting items downloaded by the browser won't fix it.
I suppose I could safely navigate the Internet by simply booting Puppy from a LiveCD on a system with no volatile storage other than RAM and removable flash. memory. But then I'd have to remaster the CD or DVD every time I needed to add an application or make any system modification, and I'd have to save bookmarks and passwords to the flash media and load them back into memory every time I start up.
The system would need to have at least a Gigabyte of RAM, and be entirely dedicated to this one task, or have some method of physically powering off all of the drives except for the burner.
But that doesn't seem practical...

I couldn't remember whether or not I tried dpup477b1, so I downloaded it, burnt a cd, and tried it. Powered down, creating a pupsave on the way, and rebooted. Now I remembered- won't boot a second time, get a kernel panic message when it switches to the layered file system. Is there a patch for this? If not, how come people are using it? How are they doing it? (Yes, I know- I haven't read all 52 pages of this topic.)

I need the CD in the drive at power-up, but the dpup-477.sfs is stored ongerry wrote:@shep... live cd, frugal, or full install? I'm using live cd.

the HD. What is that called?
I do intend at some time in the future to change it so that the CD is no
longer needed, but it's really no inconvenience leaving the CD there, and
boot is so quick anyway.
