This will be in the next Wary, but probably usable by all puppies and will be the default choice in Woof builds.

Some things have changed a bit, as in the way virtual desktops are changed, I scribbled a util for that: http://www.brainwavedesigncentral.net/micko01/stuff/puppy/spup/pet_packages-spup/jwmconfig2-20101229.pet It should be backward compatible but may worth checking!

"Looking forward to trying latest additions.. <off-topic> the opera issue with grab-boxes(?) getting mish-mashed on display of text seems rather less severe of late. css style might have some to do with it (or even the 'fit to width' kludge) - my style-less 'user' style renders it *very* clear and roomy but not all that pretty ) </off-topic>

jwm5 pager

"Tried the dotpet in macpup 511 (lucid base with e17 wm stock). Very fast jwm and new in pager is overlay numbers .. *but* oob the pager only orients horizontally - not so good for me as I like to use an oversized pager tray oriented vertically (it doesn't respect the vertical attribute for tray layout). Could a 'flat' (no bevel on bg edges) menu appearance be done? Everything else is great.

"puppy installé sur disque dur est idéal pour internet:rapidité d'allumage et d'extinction. Installé en frugal sur cle usb ou autre mémoire vive il a un gros inconvénient: temps d'extinction lent car il doit tout mémoriser sur fichier *.sfs. Alors j'essaye de simuler sandisk comme hardisk pour une installation fixe sur disque dur. Pour cela j'ai du modifier initrd.gz. Pourquoi ne pas permettre une installation fixe sur ROM? Ubuntu le fait et sans problèmes. Merci et bravo[code][/code]"30 Jan 2011, 18:29"02091'
