Prit And I are proud to announce the release of Macpup 525,our newest
e17 Macpup.
MP525 is based on Puppy Linux 5.2.5 ,"Lucid Puppy", An official woof
build of puppy Linux that is binary-compatible with Ubuntu Lucid Lynx
packages.MP525 contains all the apps from Lucid puppy with the addition of
Firefox 4. Extra apps like Opera or Gimp are available for easy
download from the Quickpet App on the ibar or the Puppy Package Manager.
MP525 also includes the Enlightenment E17 window manager. The EFL libraries
version 1.0.999 and E17 version 59456 where compiled and installed
from source.
All included E17 themes are By Verdegal37 and where customized for
Macpup by CatDude and Runtt21.

The first time you run Macpup, The system will be running totally in RAM!
Click on Htop on the ibar to check working space left in RAM*. If less than 30MB,
do not run big apps like Firefox -- instead, shutdown Macpup and you will be
asked to create a save file, that will give you more space.You can put the
save file almost anywhere,Hard drive,USB Flash drive,Sd card.Etc...
I recommend 256 MB total system ram for Macpup.You can also check ram by adding
the systray module to the Ibar. Click on the Top Hat on the Ibar to adjust most
system settings. Access the settings panel to make adjustments to e17.
Menu-settings-settings panel or the settings icon on the right end of the Ibar.
Updates for Macpup 525 can be found at http://macpup.org/runtt21/ in the macpup 525 folder,
as well as extra modules and more themes. Please note that macpup is for PC's and
not intended for use on a real "Mac".
The .iso is 155 MB

the default theme:
Important note about themes, All of the mp511 & mp520 themes will work in
mp525.
This version of Macpup will boot to desktop in almost all cases and
from that screen you can make adjustments if they are needed or
wanted.The desktop and clock should be correct. If it does not boot to
a graphical screen, it might boot to a “prompt.
