Deltas are available for final .. slacko-5.4.0.5_2_5.5-deltas-only from 5.4.0.5 to 5.5 only
(Happy birthday Mum.. 70 today)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok.. latest are DELTAS
4G << -- http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/slacko/ ... .iso.delta 4M
NOTE: 4G delta reuploaded with .1 extension due to wrong wl.ko, TY peebee -only needed if you have broadcom wl compliant WIFI card
PAE << -- http://www.smokey01.com/01micko/slacko/ ... .iso.delta
We'll consider this next RC. If you don't know how to use deltas it's easy, if you downloaded 5.4.0.5 then just get the delta and click it. Be warned 4G must match 4G and likewise with PAE.
use 5.4.0.4 devx, there are no dev lib changes.
--
Download <<-- HERE includes 5.4.0.5-4G (164M), 5.4.0.5- PAE (165M), and new deltas (from 5.4.0.4 >> 5.4.0.5, 3M each). Use old devx from here.
Kernel sources are already at ibiblio and mirrors or get them from the Sfs Manager
Comment
I like it still. ( ). Both versions, all sorts of tests, playing dvd's, cd's, networking, IO, encrypted savefiles (both kinds, though "light" is buggy, ext2,3,4) ..over 12 hrs before I committed. Sure, you may find a bug, report it. Though the changelog looks a bit empty I have submitted many changes to woof and Barry has made many himself (see bkhome.org/blog2).
Frisbee is seeming ok, I made some adjustments and will inform rerwin tomorrow.
Printing needs more testing. rcrsn51 has offered great help throughout slacko dev and has stepped up again to update ghostscript.
SFR has fixed more bugs than I can fix! All bugfixes included (I hope).
Particular attention needs to be focused on the devx (note current version available) (Billtoo, "strings" is the one in BusyBox now, please test, it's a woof thing) and the MSCW (yeah, zigbert knows ).
A few more packages are in PPM, notably icewm and openbox+ (vicmz). Also Jerome's separate openbox, lxpanel, ocmanfm, plus some packages by Billtoo. Please test and report.

NOTE: For this release we'll leave the jury out on the "BUG".. we can employ SFR's
work around later if need be. AUFS is updated to GIT 17 Jan, 2013 so maybe it is
an AUFS bug? We'll see...
EDIT: no, added in workaround ,see http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 251#682251
This is conditional on, not being PUPMODE=5, then being kernel >=3.2, then on the base filesystem being ntfs, vfat, ext2.
known issues:
There is a bug in the video wizard that lets some cards through that aren't nvidia or ATI/AMD,
billtoo reported this, will be fixed in next version. Also tallboy asked why it wont work in
pfix=ram, well that's by design and wont be changing, but I will make the gui more informative.
Xorg is a temperemental beast, try the fixed Xrandrshell from xorgwizard gui or quicksetup to
change resolution.
NV-3(n) (fx-5200) nvidia cards fail with nouveau, it' s a bug with screen drawing..USE:Code: Select all
nouveau.noaccel=1
on the kernel line (menu.lst, syslinux.conf, extlinux.cfg) or at puppy pfix=ram.
