I don't use most apps preinstalled with FossaPup64-9.5 but ROX, Terminal,
Palemoon, mpv, mtPaint, Geany, and PPM. I only install what and when I need.
I just want an 'everyday' car, not 'James Bond's' car.

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.

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?

If you are planning to buy a new monitor, get at least:
- IPS
- 75Hz (60Hz is SO outdated these days)

*As you age, you may prefer a higher-quality monitor
over a faster CPU or bigger storage

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...

sonny

@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...

@sonny You are posting replacement software for some of the core files in Fossapup64 sound control. Have you installed them all in a Fossapup64 9.5 and had no issues using the newer versions? Also any of the programs that use them? I always install, test, and use whatever I compile before sharing. ...

Thanks, @Jasper!
Fortunately the last version of xz I posted was 5.4.6.
I will downgrade it from DARKPUPPY asap.

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

BologneChe , I normally create another partition right after flashing (in order to use the USB full capacity). You can prob try: 1. Back up your savefile in another medium 2.

@Jasper, BB 4.6 never works for me. It's prob Python-related.
You may wanna contact its developer, Mr. Andrew Ziem, he's a gentleman and a scholar.
