Re: Vanilla Tasting

@dimkr, tasting your retro flavor feels like wine tasting.
Adding "Libfuse2" proves to make my system intoxicated.
I think I should take the vanilla one (non-WL). I feel like
sipping wine with a hot girl who goes by the name of
Miss 'Moderation' ;)

Vanilla Tasting

Dim, I've been tasting your vanillas over the last three days for the first time.

Quick questions:

1. Retro vs. others: what's in the 577MB (891-314)?
2. Retro does not run ".AppImage"? (at least for LibreWolf here)

Cheers

Re: DistroWatch needs a newer Puppy version listed for Puppy Linux!!!!!

i.e.
BookwormPup32 + full list of pets (and dependencies) to download separately.
BookwormPup64 + full list of pets (and dependencies) to download separately.
No unused or useless apps (minimum bloat)

There is no one-size-fits-all.

Refocusing the presentation of Puppy Linux

Moving forward, can we design a modular BookwormPup that
is barebones, OS-only, but has a large number of drivers?
Just like this modular PSU, just 'plug in' or install the apps
we NEED.

Dogs and Puppies love bare'bones', don't they?

Re: Should I get a new Monitor ?

If you are planning to buy a new monitor, get at least:

- 75Hz (60Hz is SO outdated these days)

Second to that. I'm in the midst of a 'divorce' from fossapup64-9.5. I've been 'flirting' with BookwormPup64 in the past few days. I guess tech ain't like wine, which ages gracefully over time. Interested to know why you are divorcing from Fossa9.5 ? Is it because you have recent hardware or for so...

Re: F96-CE_4 Latest Stable Release

@vtpup Mesa drivers are not part of the kernel, you're not getting newer ones when you update just the kernel. Ubuntu 20.04 and distros derived from its packages like Fossapup are stuck with old Mesa drivers that don't support recent hardware (unless you use https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnable...

Re: Fossapup User Contributed Packages

Fossapup64 9.5 already has a volume slider in the desktop tray. I strongly suggest not to replace it with something else. The slider is part of the program that provides overall control of sound settings in Fossapup64. https://bkhome.org/news/202111/pnmixer-replaced-by-volumeicon.html barrysvol.png
