Insidious Puppy 001
What is it?
Insidious Puppy is a Puppy built from Debian Sid packages (in the same way Lucid Puppy is built from Ubuntu packages) that lays more emphasis on stability, long-term usability and out-of-the-box experience. Its key features are high Debian and Lucid Puppy compatibility, a good selection of applications (through Debian's repositories), an excellent multimedia stack and good hardware support.
It is the successor to Puppy Squeeze and and provides an alternative to Quirky, dpup and Lucid Puppy.
Under-the-hood, it’s Puppy in all its glory. It is more conservative and traditional than Lucid Puppy, yet not “retro

Is this an update to the one of the same name that I downloaded and tested a couple of days ago?
I am downloading ... I just changed the name to insu_001a.iso so as to not overwrite the one already in the insidiouspup download folder!

Thanks, I have only one thing to complain about.
But inpu share this with many other puppies so that is not unique.
Some of the puppies give preference for the smaller of two screens when both are connected.
which makes the lower part not available when one do F11 which is a bad thing compared to Fluppy or Puppeee that allow the bigger screen to use F11 all over that screen.
Can one change this behavior somewhere in some setting?
apart from this I kind of like it. Good you told us about your efforts

md5sum link is broken ...
404 Error File Not Found
The page you are looking for might have been removed,
had it's name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

Edoc I have tested some 75 different linux and not a single time used that M...5 your talk about.
Maybe my lines are very reliable but I ahve never needed check such ever. Things just works. Unless they don't then I dl a new one and see if that makes any difference.
Not criticism just to show how seldom one need such.

The Puppy guys have me conditioned over these several years to always check the md5sum ...
I suppose I should use wget as that's better than html for downloading.
So, inpu-001.iso is "new" in the past few hours or is the integrated and documented download page, with some extras, what is new?
No point in me testing it if it's the same as a couple of days ago ...

It's a new ISO; the deltas from the previous one are around 55-60 MB. Big difference
The muted sound problem should be gone and all the fixes that went into the latest Woof are there too. Sorry for the confusion, I had no version number to give the "beta" except "001", because that's the minimum

Frustration
I normally run Puppy on a bootable USB drive and use LiLi USB Creator
http://old.linuxliveusb.com/ With this puplet(distro) I can create a bootable USB drive....but when it boots it take forever trying to find the save file(which of course is not there on the firt boot) and then times out.
Using a LiveCD that I burned from the iso I have the following problems:
Sound....running the wizard results in;
error: modinfo could not find module snd
isapnp????
no such file detected no device found
Cups
No PDF printer installed
Add printer, detects my LaserJet1 1012 on usb port, will not print test page error /usb/lib/cups/Filter/psttopdf failed
Printer listed as idle with message that couldn;t read xreftable

Thanks for your great intro explaining insidious puppy!
While I'm downloading, two vital questions :
* What's the window manager?
* How long is your military duty?

Just loaded the updated Insidious Puppy 001 on two laptops.
On my Panasonic Toughbook CF-29 it worked perfectly!
On the CF-28 it failed the same as before, blank display.
Luci-239 brings up the xorgwizard command prompt but just loops & when I try Vesa it also brings me to a blank screen. There is the warning about deprecated the modconfig location and the first time something about mouseconfig being set to "5".

Hi all:
Insidious pup is proving to be fast, stable, and light on resources. Thanks for the effort and diligence.
just a minor thing here that might help with rendering .ps files:
info http://packages.debian.org/sid/libjbig2dec0
download http://packages.debian.org/sid/i386/lib ... 0/download
When I tried to open the /usr/share/examples/colorcir.ps, it wouldn't display in epdfviewer. xerrs.log revealed that libjbig2dec.so.0 was missing:
/usr/bin/gs: error while loading shared libraries: libjbig2dec.so.0:
After installing the above package, the colorcir.ps displayed fine.

Thanks Edoc for this one.
"Luci-239 brings up the xorgwizard command prompt but just loops & when I try Vesa it also brings me to a blank screen. There is the warning about deprecated the modconfig location and the first time something about mouseconfig being set to "5".

That is what I see too but it goes away so fast that I recognized it now when you spelled it out.
But typical of me I fail to remember when I see it or at which puppy but it is rather often.
So maybe it is important.
