This is Barrys Woof build of
Upup using Woof Alpha 4 (Ubuntu packages used to build Puppy)
http://www.puppylinux.com/blog/?viewDetailed=00662
Reminder this is an Alpha build - test and experimental
For play time only
Don't use cutting edge technology if you are a new Pup
- who am I kidding - you ain't gonna listen
Be careful if you have important data on your HD

It is one of our potential Kennel (Puppy 5) breeds
Just to remind anyone trying this from CD?DVD
run puppy = pfix=ram during boot up to ensure you do not interfere with any existing save.sfs on the hard disk
I look forward to the Beta as this is very much an Alpha build
I love the black and gray default desktop that is loaded - a great option for Alphas - and I just like it anyways . . .

The screen (even though I selected xorg) looks more like xvesa
- might it have jumped to that if xorg failed?
The screen is offset to the right slightly - my TFT monitor auto button does not fix it
so would have to shift about 10 pixels to the left manually
- see later for update
The Seamonkey window is not responding to the scroll wheel for moving down web pages.
I tried installing the Fullerscreen presentation program (comes with this build so no need to download) had to remember to press f11 to activate slideshow mode . . .
The package manager is much simpler in presentation and I tried installing kexi database from several locations without success
I did download the devx.sfs too - intending to look at Valide and Genie but this build is too early for me to use without extreme frustration, so did not try it.
Anyway just quick feedback before I try improving the screen display

Be interested how our intrepid Puppy testers get on.
How are you faring?
Update OK it was xorg but it jumped down a resolution.
pressing ctrl + alt + backspace and running 'xorgwizard'
I was able to select one resolution higher than my monitor could take and then the available safe options included safe 'your monitor can handle' options which I was able to select and use.
The TFT auto adjust button also worked - so now I have the resolution I am used to -

This was a problem I think in DIngo? Was solved . . .
Xorg is very sluggish - I have a fast video card and it should be better . . .
Valide appears in the menu when adding devx but not Glade?
I also added a couple of standard Puppy sfs (OpenOffice and XaraLX)
- seem to be working fine . . .
Right gonna add the devx and then do another update to this thread. So far have preferred Dpup and Spup BUT the previous Upup did not even get to desktop on my system - so progress . . .
Thanks Barry
