LXDE packages, lastest versions.
Hello Puppies users !
I give you today LXDE packages used in CheckMate version without themes and appearance, only applications separated so that you can choose.
That's why you can get an ugly desktop at the beginning, but do not be afraid !
I put so much time because of some dependencies and other projects ...
They are working with Slacko, Precise beta 3 & other, but not old Puppies.
Do not hesitate to report bugs!
Enjoy !

keyboard layout swwitch and weather
Jely 69
Can You add country flag icons to the layout keyboard switch, just like in lubuntu or any other LXDE distro. Layout keyboard switch is plugin item in panel preferences (will be great if You can make patch for this) Some distros also include weather plugin. Exept this desktop looks perfect, I just did full install and I like it more then Lubuntu I used earlier. I did not tested everything but if I find any problems I let You know

Hi Jejy!
I fully agree with Tman above there!
I know that I am not the only person here when I say, "We hope that you remain with our Puppy Community for many long years to come and feel very welcomed here! We truly are so thankful to have a developer of your calibre working now in our midst."
Thank you for choosing Puppy instead of some other distro Jejy. Continue the great job.
Amicalement Mon Chum,

You have come along and have worked literally magic with all these various new desktops which you have given us for Puppy. The choices now - for a person like me who loves playing around with so many different window managers and desktops - it is like a dream come true! I feel as if I have hit the Lotto here and haven't had this much fun with Puppy in a very long time!

(from testing in racy 5.3.90)
Compared to latest precise (5.3.95 aka beta7), menu compatibility is much better in racy with particular regard to lxpanel's menu plugin augmented by an lx-appearance.menu along with the others in /etc/xdg/menus dir. Structure is closer in racy, enabling a more familiar 'puppy' look with inline limits and so on if a branchout is desired.
A nice feature of the lxpanel menu is that comment lines in the individual dotdesktop entries show as popups when hovered on the menu - this can be used with shorter, non-wordy entry names for a less 'sprawling' menu that still has the same or better comprehension of what the app does for users unfamiliar with the variety offered.
Not as skinny as a template but it pretty much auto-updates on-the-fly without any fuss

I tested your pcmanfm pets in precise. When I open pcmanfm I get an ungly window without any icons, and I can't mount drives from the file manager. That's using openbox in precise, trying all of the pets from this page and starting lxde gives the same result. I also tried installing from the ppm and had the same result. Everytime I tested was in a clean session. How can I get pcmanfm to work as expected in precise?

I am using this in Slacko 5.4 and it is working nicely. I had to add the gnome-icon theme. I have no panel, just a blank desktop with default Slacko wallpaper with my programs in the quick launch bar (all by my choice). I would like to try Pcmanfm 1.1.0. Three lxde programs show up in the Utility Menu: Look and Feel, Preferred Applications, and PCmanfm.,
Pcmanfm depends on the rest of lxde for some of its function--for instance if started by itself it does not offer the working trash/recycle bin--to get that I must start "xwin startlxde.".

No, this is just a problem of lack of documentation.Pcmanfm depends on the rest of lxde for some of its function--for instance if started by itself it does not offer the working trash/recycle bin--to get that I must start "xwin startlxde."
I run pcmanfm without using startlxde or lxsession or lxdm (because I hate having layers and layers of wrappers complicating things), and the trash and network browsing and detection of plugged drives and everything works. The problem will be that dbus is not being started "properly". You need two instances of dbus-daemon, one is called a "system session" or something, and the other is the "user session". If you use startlxde then both instances are started, but you can start them another way if you don't want to use startlxde.

Here it is

(lxappearance:22877): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_utf8_collate: assertion `str1 != NULL' failed
..... (the same)
(lxappearance:22877): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_utf8_collate: assertion `str2 != NULL' failed
and the terminal itself is very tiny (my screen is 1600x900). My eyes are 63 years old to give you an idea icons seems to be 32x32, or less.
Perhaps josejp2424 wanted it like that, but i suppose somewhere in the menus size can be adjusted to my needs.
