If the OFF TOPIC area is causing stress, and effecting family relationship, then it is probably better to delete it and get the forum back to what you want it to be.

Trobin

One way of freeing the forum of such junk, itself, would be to simply create two off-topic areas, one being for off-topic but still technical topics area, the other being for social off-topic chit-chat but with the latter simply being a link to an agreed off-site social venue. I know that many ...

Not rational(even if there was a little more memory). Yes, pretty, yes, it reminds ZX Spectrum. But...
Is there anyone who disagrees that this is a toy that you can buy only if you have "extra, unnecessary" money?

I would not classify it as a toy. Not by the specifications listed on this site ...

Trobin

My understanding, and I could be wrong, is that a DOG, such as DebianDog, is made from one flavour of Linux, Debian, Slack, etc., shaped to work like Puppy Linux, but is not actually Puppy Linux. While a PUP, such as BionicPup is made using WOOFCE, or some variant of it. Or by remastering.

I just wanted to thank you for Easypup.

I've used Puppy Linux on and off for years. It may not be as polished as th big name linuxes but it works. And that is all that I need from any OS.

Spilling coffee on my laptop is what brought me back. Only 3 or four keys were effected so the keyboard wasn't completely destroyed. Just enough to ...

I have a fair collection of Puppy Linux Versions. But the ones I use now are Easypup and Bionic64.

I think I get what you're saying, but I don't think it's going to happen. You're asking someone to create and maintain a distro that has no future.

Trobin

You need an adapted methodic to work efficiently and in correct ergonomics, else you will probably loose your time and energy!

I think you’re looking for a more rigid development system. Which, as a whole, I don’t think Puppy has.

Looks to be a French Language version of Easypup.

the error is

to want to build a distro of BINARIES and not from sources!

your are dependant of the fact if the binaries are available or not ;-) !

Okay, let me see if I understand this.

What would you like Puppy to evolve to? Seems to me it's evolving well.

Trobin

I liked the other one better.

No real reason to have an easily well known identifiable logo."

I thought it was identifiable.

Trobin

Not sure if this is what you want.

There's two screen magnifiers, one 32 bit and one 64 bit.
both files are contained in the .tar.gz file, and are pet files so you only have to click on the one you want.

You try to run the program in the terminal, click on the help information, if the official website of the software is https, it can’t be opened, this prompt will appear.

What program are you trying to run?

Trobin

Easypup 2.3

I have a bunch of other pups and Easyos, but Easypup is the one I like for general purpose. It may7 have been a fun side project, but it works for me.

Trobin

I think that switching to 64 bit only is to abandon those that still use 32 bit computers.

Trobin

As far as it goes, I agree. It's easy to understand, and straight forward.

But, if I updated Speak3pup, by upgrading the linux base, it would still operate differently than it's parent distro. For one thing, the windowing system would not be run, and tts and edbrowse loaded instead, and would rely ...

Trobin

So, let me see if I understand this. Speak3pup was remastered from either a modified puppy or full Puppy 2.1.7. Can't remember which. That would, according to the above definitions make it a derivative. I don't know if any one actually uses it, but thought I'd take the time to update it to a more ...

Trobin

The one I like - came with Easypup

Trobin

My 2 cents worth. Keep it separate. Move forward with this forum. Look back on the other.

Trobin

I would grab what you want to keep. Which is why I'm copying the
Seeing Dog Puppy for Blind thread.
edit
I do hope it sticks around, if only in a read-only state.

Trobin

If you like full install then there are many other fine distros that you can tweak to produce a lean and fast OS too.

Why tweak another distro to get a clean and fast OS when Puppy is already there. True there are other ways to run Puppy, rather than as a full install, and I have and do so ...

Trobin

Thanks for the information.
