Wary Release Candidate (104) feedback
Well, it seems that Wary is "good enough" to become a Release Candidate.
Grab from here:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... /wary-104/
...the live-CD is, devx, delta-files.
Feedback most welcome!
Note: I am in "holiday mode" in Melbourne, but managing to put in a few hours on Puppy stuff every day. There will be a few days coming up when that will drop further.

Fresh manual frugal install of Wary 104 on my main Linux box. Working sound, internet and the correct screen resolution on initial boot. Yes, the dreaded Realtek nic was connected on bootup.

Installing SM 2.1beta1 fixes it, so it is primarily a compile issue? Also, leave browser open and load calendar (click on clock).

Even better still, the really good news is that Opera11 will d/l and install as .deb(other) straight from their website + open(petget). Highlighting the URL in Opera is still a little quirky but nothing like the grief of SM. Incidentally, my downloader shows Opera11 @ 9.5Mb and SM @ 16Mb*. Adding a decent email client like Claws will add another 9Mb (Sylpheed ~1Mb?), although folks determined to stay small&fast can always use a webmail client at no further cost.

As with Wary 102; loading modules with usb or pcmcia devices
inserted causes a long count during boot.
Sometimes causes frozen cursor when using usb mouse.
Have not found any speed difference when booting 098 or 104
regular or small versions.
Wary consistently boots 8 secs. faster than any Luci on my 700m.
The fastest regular Puppy boot I've seen.

When booting from usb flash; don't seem to have any problems.

Downloaded and upgraded from 102 this morning. It performed beautifully, maintaining all the mods and applications I had added to 102. rjbrewer is right about still needing to insert the extra line in /usr/local/bin rox, but the upgrade process did it just fine.
I don't seem to be having any particular problems with Seamonkey as installed.
