Introducing a new Puplet for artists! VINCENT VAN PUP. Vinnie (for short) is rather a bit pudgy -- perhaps I should've named it Jabba The Pup -- ah, but there's nothing Star-Wars-y about it the bulge comes from the NASA-esque Out house-sink approach I took to including things. If it was practical, or could be useful, for an artist -- it was included. Of note, Vinnie is based off of Upup Raring 3992 Non-PAE. It'll run on basically anything -- including Poulsbo hardware! (Well, OK, I wouldn't want to run it on a Pentium 3 system with 128meg RAM -- see the Bare-Minimum and Recommended-Minimum System Specs below...)
Included in this Puplet are a whole pile of applications for creating digital artwork. Wine is in there, which means that if you want to add Adobe's Creative Suite or Photoshop or CorelDRAW or whatever, you're able to do that, right out of the box. I've also stuffed in The GIMP, in case Photoshop's outside your budget and Xara Xtreme should substitute adequately for CorelDRAW, for those who like vector illustrations (SVG type stuff, anyone?). There's also MyPaint, which appears to be a very powerful application for digital painting -- I'm pretty sure that, given the right drivers and such, you could use it with (for example) a Wacom Tablet, and do some VERY nifty things. It can also be used with a mouse, of course... these are just the tip of the proverbial iceberg; Vinnie's got a TON of stuff!
Please download Vinnie and let me know how you like him (and how useful he is)!
Please also let me know, of course, if you find bugs, or would like to request additional features.
KNOWN BUGS --
(!) The 2barks sound effect goes off twice at firstboot. This is sort of purposeful (I made it so that it would go off once at every boot).
(!) GNU Paint shows up twice in the "Graphics" portion of the Puppy Menu.
(!) MyPaint shows up twice in the "Graphics" portion of the Puppy Menu.
(?) I did not test LightZone, to see if it worked. It's the only thing I didn't check!
BARE-MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS --
I put this together on my ASUS 1000HEB netbook. I'm going to say you don't want something much slower than that, so...
1.5 GHz Pentium M CPU (Celerons need not apply)
1.0 Gig RAM
1024x768 resolution (1024x600 netbook resolution works OKish if you've got good eyesight )
RECOMMENDED-MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS --
1.6 GHz single-core CPU (such as an Intel Atom N270)
2.0 Gig RAM
1280x800 resolution
BASE ISO -- Upup Raring 3992 (NON PAE) -- raring-3.9.9.2-SCSI.iso
(sc0ttman's Woofy 0.91 was used to create this Puplet.)
APPLICATIONS REMOVED --
Abiword
Get-LibreOffice
Gnumeric
mtPaint version 3.44.18 (for upgrade purposes)
For once I left Seamonkey in there. I still say it's uglier than poorly groomed chimpanzee hindquarters... but it's functional in a pinch.
APPLICATIONS ADDED --
AutoAdjustPhoto GUI (image adjustment)
Ease (presentation software)
Extra Fonts DotPet (for LibreOffice)
GIMP 2.8.4 (the GNU Image Manipulation Program)
Google Chrome 26 (browser) [latest ver I could find as DotPet]
GNU Paint (aka GPaint -- WinXP MSPaint clone)
HPLIP Lite (for printing)
Java JRE (version 1.7u15)
LibreCAD (2D Computer Aided Design) [*.deb]
LibreOffice 4.1.2
LightLooks 9x Gold JWM Theme (from puppy.b0x.me)
LightZone (Digital Darkroom) [*.deb]
Mozilla Thunderbird 17.0.8 (email client)
mtPaint version 3.44.28 (slightly newer than the originally-included version)
MyPaint (very powerful digital painting application)
Tango Iconset (from puppy.b0x.me)
Wine 1.6 (Wine Is Not an Emulator )
XaraLX Xara Xtreme 0.7r1785 (vector graphics & illustration, with some bitmap support, from the Puppy Wikka)

Very interesting Puppy!
Only 1 question, does it support animation in Xara?
I can't find any Puppy that support.

My people are somebody who will move to crowded city because I have promised them the refuge in the big UFO station.
Now I'd found at least 5 aliens who live in Thailand. They are from Triangular constellation.

For starters, you've certainly been up to finding a catchy name for
your derivative! I'm downloading "Vinnie" now and will give you
some feedback in the coming couple of days.
In the meantime, have a great day! TWYL!

Very nice pup! I will make good use of this. Love the fact that xara can export to illustrator EPS format.
If you do release any update I'd like to suggest the addition of the new version of peasy tools which allows you to rightclick on your music directory to select immediate random playing of everything in there. (nice easy way to get the music playing softly in the background without a fiddly player gui to fight with). Music while you paint...
Love the choice of wallpaper too! I'm a bit undecided about the usb icons but they're growing on me
Overall I'm very happy to see this pup because Grafpup never did work right on my hardware. Nice work.

- it plays vids as well as the music. There are several ways you can use it to play your media (each to his own...)
but my favourite method ('cos it's so quick and easy...) is the way I can just rightclick my Music directory and go straight into randomplay.

What a luvly puppy - truly superb - everything looks good so far, many thanks.
This is a keeper - only one minor mutter - no skype.
However, I'm sure there is an sfs to be found somewhere.
Thanks again for looks like an outstanding puppy - much appreciated - Ray.

Skype isn't really within Vinnie's scope... but try the stuff here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=86808
I'd start with the Precise packages, and if they fail use the Lucid ones. After that I'm really not sure where to point you -- there aren't any Raring packages... but some Lucid stuff and some Precise stuff works in Upup Raring (on which Vinnie is based) so it might work.
Hope that helps!
Off topic -- I love your avatar, and I have for quite a while.

An error that may exist ALSO in Pemasu's Upup Raring 3992
Nice Layout and lots of image-editing tools.
Only problem I could find was this
JWM desktop manager > error message when the "Tray Autohide Option" is selected to set Autohide ON.
Autohide is NOT turned on
Here to help
