Here are a couple of simple wallpapers made using the .svg logo. I hope you all don't mind 1080p, although it will be trivial to scale and crop a wallpaper like this to your desired resolution. I can't get a preview to appear. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?mode=attach&id=117484 ...

I have tried installing this on Slacko64-6.3.2 (kernel changed to 4.14.35) including the dependencies. mpv appears in the applications menu, but running `mpv` in the terminal (with or without arguments) gives the error: "bash: /usr/bin/mpv: No such file or directory" This path definitely p...

Did you have X working in your original install of Slacko64, before you switched kernels? Yes, it was working correctly. Using this as an added option, when booting, can fix a lot of graphics issues. i915.modeset=0 That worked. Thank you all for your fast and effective help! I added that code to ex...

Same here, I need to use modesetting for the test to work. When I do, I get the correct resolution (1920x1080) although the default resolutions also pass this test: "Puppy Xorg Video Wizard: testing X If you can see this, then X is working!" (etc.) I can click the OK button, finish and ret...

The kernel link lists kernels in ASCII order, not numerical order, so 4.14 comes after 4.1. The 4.4 32bit kernel you downloaded will not resolve this issue. 4.14.49 64bit would be worth trying. Thank you for picking that up, I didn't notice. I tried with 4.14.49 64bit and 4.14.35 64bit and both are...

I have installed slacko64-6.3.2 and...
