LxPupSc32 SlackwareCurrent LXDE Woof-CE build 17-Nov-24

[Marv]

Updated to version 21.04+2, same procedure as usual. details as outlined in my post in the LxPupSc64 thread. Brief tests and back to the 64b for the daily, no problems at all seen, clean dmesg both in the pristine and updated savefile installs for the 32b pup. 'features' disabled as in the 64b install. Running the 5.11.12 kernel here also. If it keeps raining I'll get to the Bay Trail box soon.

Thanks,

Im a newbie user of puppylinux. I currently have fossapup 9.5 puppy installed. And i did used bionicpup 8.0 +28.iso from peebee. Im a peebee fan of distro released. And 8.0 +28 is better than the original iso release.
I have questions to peebee:
1. I prefer not power hungry, resource hungry, fast, reliable, crash proof released os version. Which of your release is the best so far? And applicable to atom procie with 2gb ram acer aspire netbook or what i can say a very old laptop?
2. Is 64bit is more slower and resource hungry, ram eater than a 32bit puppy linux? With regards to same 2gb ram used on both?

And btw. Is 666philb and peebee the same person?

Easy answer first - no 2 separate people.....
Hard to say which release is best for an old netbook - ScPup is probably the lightest, latest version but gives access to the Slackware repos..... BionicPup32 is older so may be better for older hardware.....
I think 32 and 64 bit perform about the same - the main difference for me is the lib structure - 64 is much less standardised than 32 meaning that 64 bit software portability is more problematic....

This is the LXPup32 thread so suggest further discussion is moved elsewhere - thanks.

Updated to the 21.04 +4 version on the usual Fujitsu S761 using the delta. md5sum correct, the usual test procedures followed. First a pristine frugal install through internet connection, SNS used, then check dmesg, idle resource use, glxgears FPS etc. Check connection using a portable un-googled, check lid suspend etc. All good there. Then scrub my 21.04 +3 savefile, switch to the 5.11.16 kernel I was using there, and reboot. Everything a go there also. I don't use this pup much but keep it reasonably up to date as the fallback OS. I have both the savefile version and a pfix=ram version in menu.lst.

Thanks,

e9b815e0158061d9913fbafc1045b3e4 LxPupSc32-22.02+0-T-k64.iso

is released based on Slackware-15.0 - see post #1

There seems to be a small problem with pupevent handling so CDs/DVDs have to be played manually.

Also a bit of a problem with some flat-remix icons that the new librsvg in these builds doesn't like....
