Mind sharing your pet packages for others to use. Maybe have they could be added to quickpet
These work for me compiled as per Linux From Scratch, using this patch which I manually edited the changes from.

Thanks for them, i too compile xfce using lfs, however my thunar results in double entries for drives when mounted and even loop entries on the side, how is it done to avoid these issues plus how to get rid of the orange/ red warning that am running as root.

Kindly share your Thunar as well and xfce4 plugins.

Updated links to latest version on http://puppy.b0x.me/
Correct me if I'm wrong about other versions.
I might add a new page to highlight some other projects going on in community when I get time since were starting with "PR" again :)

I booted tahrpup on laptop shortly last night.
I like the default icons but I think the orange wallpaper would be better and some other jwm theme as default.
It booted to correct screen resolution and I could connect to wifi.

Yeah Thunar does that in Precise too, in Slacko it's ok so I have the same problem as you and I don't know the fix for that.

Edit: compiled in Tahr
I used this Thunar https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/260 ... 3-i686.pet it still doubles up on the mounts but there is no root warning.

I have yet to build more packages, I'm just trying to debug as I go.

You have to edit one of the thunar files before you compile to get rid of root warning. I can't remember which one at the moment.

The only way I know of getting rid of the double entries so far is to use thunar-1.4.0

I compiled xfce4 too, I used your glib-2.42.0-i686.pet and pup-volume-monitor-0.1.15-i686.pet pets.
It's working pretty well.

I compiled xfce4 too

Will the Xfce version eventually be available as an ISO for those of us who don't understand compiling?
Thanks

Why isn't the sound working? Is it because the full ALSA sound system isn't present. This is the problem I've had with the versions of Slacko after 5.3.1.

could someone with an nvidia card possibly make the nvidia drivers for me as my card has broken.
i guess we need the latest one and the legacy one as .pets ... (you can use getnvidia)

i will then add them to quickpet along with the amd beta driver which i've managed to compile

thanks

New user here. I just registered on the forum to tell you all how great this distro is.

I was looking for something lightweight to install on an old (2007) and underpowered asus eeePC that I had laying around. I looked at crunchbang, slitaz, LXLE, and several others... But this tahrpup 6.0 CE beats them all

A quick download later, and then I put it on a pendrive and did an install. Everything worked smooth, right out of the box. Flawless.

This is my first ever experience with Puppy (in any of its flavors) and to say that I am impressed is an understatement.

Welcome to the kennels paulwill22, as we have a custom to say! :)
Glad that you got a good first impression.

Thanks! This distro is a KEEPER so I'll be around in the future... lurking and learning.

Considering the particular hardware that I am running it on, I was fully expecting to settle for an underwhelming, mediocre experience (compared to my other computers). But the opposite is the case: I am blown away.

Just two days with Puppy so far but I am alredy in love with "him".
