Lupu 509RC -- NIce, but ...
Username: edoc
Lupu has struggled through a myriad of nagging bugs, swatted dead one-by-one by the dedicated team, and now is looking real good! Would you consider adding the Libs link to Puppy Package manager for the frequent occasions that one gets to the end of loading an app only to be faced with a bewildering list of missing dependencies? http://www.puppylinux.ca/tpp/ttuuxxx/Libs/ I am guessing a script might even offer to go there and grab those missing libs and install them -- so that the package management process is complete. I don't know if this is possible, it just seems to be a nice addition if it were."8 Aug 2010, 8:53"01748"206.74.170.234'libs link"01micko"hi doc Not one for the blog really, but you should install Ubuntu Lucid Lynx libs for compatibility. http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/libs/ You'll find what you may need there. Bookmark it, and I'll suggest Playdayz add it to his "News" page. Cheers ________________________________________ Barry, I just wonder if you looked at my fix for freememapplet_tray titled..

During the period I was mostly offline, I did attempt to note anything that needed doing. Now I will try to catch up. If I miss anything important, that is, don't announce it as implemented on this blog, in the following week or so, kindly remind me. Username: 8 Aug 2010, 16:38
"01748"114.76.54.13're freememapplet_tray"01micko"Thanks Barry I have been running my hacked version for a couple of days in frugal and full no problem so I think it's safe enough for us in Lupu. Take your time mate, Family first. Also I made a page with useful lupu stuff, including links to the fixed kernel source and Ubuntu libs. http://users.tpg.com.au/01micko/01mickos_puppystuff.html Cheers"8 Aug 2010, 16:47"01748"115.64.206.145'No show"Sage"It would be a terrible shame if this were released without answers to: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=55740&start=1680, p113."9 Aug 2010, 23:47"01748"84.13.112.4'
