That screen is an extension to the Chromium web browser, to get the
latest Chromium you need to update Puppy Package Manager (then exit
and restart it), have it search for chromium and choose
chromium-browser_33.0.1750.152
Chromium can't be run as root so you need to edit the hidden
.spot-status file in the root directory, mine looks like this:
opera=false
firefox=false
chromium-browser=false
dillo=false
Once you've edited the .spot-status file save it and then open the terminal
and enter "loginmanager" without the quotes.
The iStart is a free extension to chromium but you need a google
membership to get it.
Under tools/extensions in the chromium menu you can search for iStart
and then choose to download and install it, it's here that you need a
google membership but I think you can get one easily.
I have an Acer Chromebook so I used my google info from that to get
the extension in FluxPup, I run the iStart extension on my Chromebook as well.
More trouble than it's worth maybe but I like Chromium and the iStart
extension so it's the main browser that I use in a couple of other pups as
well.
