Precise: wallpaper files
Forum member futwerk has posted some wallpaper images for Precise Puppy:http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=76961&start=690
Thanks for that!
I have added two of these to my collection (the PET previously only had two images) for Precise (315KB):

Precise: dgc, hcf, hsf modem drivers
Rerwin has compiled dgc, hcf and hsf modem kernel drivers for the 3.2.29 kernel used in Precise Puppy:http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=76961&start=645
I have uploaded these to the 'common' repo (8KB, 472KB, 1MB):
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_packages-common/linux_module_dgcmodem-1.13-20120901-k3.2.29.pet
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_packages-common/linux_module_hcfpcimodem-1.21full-20120927-k3.2.29.pet
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_packages-common/linux_module_hsfmodem-7.80.02.06full-dellhybrid-20120901-k3.2.29.pet
The 3.2.29 Linux kernel PET is also in the 'common' repo, with the intention that other (non-Precise) Puppy builds can also use it. Although, note that it was compiled in Precise Puppy, so any other 3rd party drivers must be also.
I will include these three modules in the next release of precise, even though the hsfmodem PET is big (1MB).

nobus, dbus library stubs
technosaurus has created a PET of nobus, modified as shared libraries, which are do-nothing stubs for the 'dbus' and 'dbus-glib' libraries. This is for apps linked against those libs but which will still work if they are only stubs.Forum post:
