Puppy Linux 4.2.1
Puppy Linux provides you with a perfect and very useful evolutionary operating system which is based on GNU Linux. more>>
Puppy Linux 4.2.1 provides you with a perfect and very useful evolutionary operating system which is based on GNU Linux. Whats different here is that Puppy is extraordinarily small, yet quite full featured. Puppy Linux can boot into a 64MB ramdisk, and that's it, the whole caboodle runs in RAM. Unlike live CD distributions that have to keep pulling stuff off the CD, Puppy in its entirety loads into RAM. This means that all applications start in the blink of an eye and respond to user input instantly.
Major Features:
- Puppy Linux has the ability to boot off a flash card or any USB memory device (flash-Puppy), CDROM (live-Puppy), Zip disk or LS/120/240 Superdisk (zippy-Puppy), floppy disks (floppy-Puppy), internal hard drive (hard-Puppy).
- Puppy occupies about 50-60M on my USB Flash drive, CDROM, or whatever is the storage media.
- When Puppy boots, everything uncompressed into a RAM area that we call a "ramdisk". The live-CD will bootup on systems with only 32M RAM, but the more RAM you have the more Puppy is able to keep files permanently in ramdisk hence more speed. A PC with 128M RAM is the recommended minimum.
- Note that Puppy will automatically use a swap partition if it exists. When booting from a USB Flash device, Puppy tries to load all the Flash files into physical RAM, but if there is not enough RAM then Puppy is able to copy the excess to a swap partition if it exists. This eliminates writes to the Flash memory during a session, greatly extending its life span.
- You may need to have a swap partition to run Firefox or Mozilla on PCs with less than 64M RAM. Certainly, for a PC with only 32M RAM, a swap partition is necessary to run most of the large GUI applications.
Enhancements:
- CUPS-1.3.10 regressed from 1.4b2 to resolve ongoing issues with CUPS printing.
- Fixed printing from Geany, Leafpad and Gnumeric using CUPS-1.3.10
- Abiword-2.6.3 with 2.6.6 plugins has been patched for improved .doc & .docx support (Liberation ttf fonts required for some documents)
- Pwidgets updated to 2.0.8
- Pcrypt updated to 17 May 2009 release and now requires Ccrypt to function. Bcrypt has been dropped in consequence.
- Ccrypt-1.7 added as dependency for Pcrypt
- MIME-types updated in Rox-2.6.1
- Patches for gtk+ Xinput and b43 broadcom network driver
- Pmusic updated to 0.6.4
- Pschedule updated to 0.7
- Plus previously issued patches for nbtscan, mountcifs, jwm-tray, xsane, network wizard (now at April 4 release), mtpaint-snapshot, gtk+2.12.1-Xinput-fix and pcp (Puppy control panel).

QEMU-Puppy 2.15-1
QEMU-Puppy is an OS and a set of applications on a USB memory stick. more>>
QEMU-Puppy is an OS and a set of applications on a USB memory stick. QEMU-Puppy can be booted natively, or on top of an other, already installed, OS. Just borrow a PC, boot your own environment and return the PC unaffected.
Once upon a time, I realized that having your data on a USB memory stick wasnt exactly what I wanted. I wanted more. Carrying your files is nice. Carrying your applications as well would be even better. What the heck, carrying your OS and even your own machine on your memory stick would be the best!
If you have your files on your memory stick, you can take any machine and access those files. Being able to handle the files, depends on the installed software. If you dont want to depend on the installed software, you can put your own software on the memory stick as well. But most of the software needs to be installed, which is not easy, or possible, or desirable, or allowed on a lot of machines. You dont want to pollute a machine you borrowed... Having a complete OS at hand, including applications and files would take away these constraints. Just put everything on a USB memory stick and boot from it.
A bootable USB memory stick has some disadvantages as well. First of all, not every PC is able to boot from USB. Second, if the machine does boot from USB, not all hardware is detected or configured properly, since the hardware "changes" every day. Third, booting from USB "locks" the machine: Its either the natively installed OS or your OS, not both at the same time.
To get rid of these disadvantages, you can carry your own machine as well, not just your files, your applications and your OS. You can do this by buying a laptop. But its expensive, a physical burden and risky. The USB memory stick is cheap, light and easier to protect. A virtual machine , like QEMU, is cheap, light and easy to protect as well. With such a virtual machine, we are able to boot our OS on top of the natively installed OS. Now we have two OSs running concurrently on one machine!
ALT-TAB is enough to hide your machine and get back to work...
The tricky part is trying to have the OS on your USB memory stick to be able to boot natively, as well as in a virtual machine. But it can be done. And thats what this document is all about...

Twisted Names 0.3.0
Twisted Names is both a domain name server as well as a client resolver library. more>>
Twisted Names project is both a domain name server as well as a client resolver library.
Twisted Names comes with an "out of the box" nameserver which can read most BIND-syntax zone files as well as a simple Python-based configuration format.
Twisted Names can act as an authoritative server, perform zone transfers from a master to act as a secondary, act as a caching nameserver, or any combination of these.
Twisted Names client resolver library provides functions to query for all commonly used record types as well as a replacement for the blocking gethostbyname() function provided by the Python stdlib socket module.
Twisted Names is available under the MIT Free Software licence.
Enhancements:
- Errors in the markup used in API documentation have been fixed.
- A bug where the DNS client would sometimes drop a response has been fixed.
- A bug which prevented non-IN lookups from generating malformed queries has been fixed.

iPup 1.02
iPup is a simplified build of Puppy Linux for use in institutional settings. more>>
iPup is a simplified build of Puppy Linux for use in institutional settings. iPups applications are limited to those typically used in libraries and schools. iPup comes with AbiWord, Firefox, gFTP and mtPaint.
The purpose behind building iPup has been to create a puplet (custom build of Puppy) that is easy for novice users to understand (at least when it comes to getting on the Internet or typing a paper), but not too user friendly when it comes to things like mounting flash drives, CD-ROMs and the like.
Instant messaging, CD ripping software and media players have not been included. Having said this, most, but not all, of the library files found in the standard version of Puppy have also been included in iPup. This allows you to add software with minimal headache.

OneBone Puppy 2.00r1

This is a play-thing, requested by a few people on the forum, and definitely not for the average user. In other words, Linux commandline nerds only! OneBone does not have any X GUI applications.
It does have Elinks web browser, Ytree file manager and MP text editor. The Lucent and SmartLink modem drivers are included. There are lots of text-mode applications out there and a very interesting flavour of Puppy could be created, based on this starting point.

NameSpawner can be used to generate random names with a specific theme. Some of the themes included in the main distribution are: elvish, barbaric, dwarvish, angelic, demonic, and Tolkien-like.
Names are "spawned" via random walks on Markov Chains. New themes can be created using existing lists of names. Random walk settings can be tweaked to obtain more variance in the output names or more faithfulness to the original list of names.

DNS name parser is a Java utility library for parsing dns names, ip and hw addresses.
Synopsis
import su.netdb.parser.*;
Parser parser = new Parser();
Hashtable result = parser.parse(str);
System.out.println("string: "+result.get("string"));
System.out.println("hw: "+result.get("hw"));
System.out.println("name: "+result.get("name"));
System.out.println("domain: "+result.get("domain"));
System.out.println("ip_low: "+result.get("ip_low"));
System.out.println("ip_high: "+result.get("ip_high"));
"DNS name parser" is an utility library created to be used in a search application. Given a single input field its function is to differentiate between several types of possible input strings. Namely if it a dns name, IP address (exact, ip range or ip with wildcards) or hardware address. The result of the parsing is a Hashtable with possible keys "string", "hw", "name", "domain", "ip_low" and "ip_high".

Grafpup 2.00
Grafpup Linux is a desktop Linux operating system based closely on Puppy Linux. more>>
Grafpup Linux is a desktop Linux operating system based closely on Puppy Linux. Grafpups goal is to be as useful to graphic designers and other imaging professionals as possible while still remaining extremely small and fast. How small?
Grafpup is a live cd of only 72mb with current versions of Gimp, Cinepaint, Inkscape, and Scribus. You will be amazed at how much is in there for the size. You will also be amazed at how fast everything runs.
Running from the live cd, the entire operating system loads into ram, including all of the applications. This means that your programs start without any hesitation and respond instantly to your input. Unlike some live cds, however, you dont have to reconfigure every time you reboot.
Grafpup saves all of your settings into a file called pup101 on your hard drive. This file contains your entire home directory, plus any additional programs that you wish to install. Grafpup is also very user friendly, with wizards for doing most system tasks like connecting to the internet and installing to hard disk or usb drive.
There is also a powerful package management system, pupget, with a very extensive and ever increasing list of additional packages available for easy installation. An additional package installer, dotpup, offers single click installation of a long list of software. In other words this is much more than a garden variety live cd. It is capable of being your main operating system and extensible enough to satisfy just about anyone.
How is all of this accomplished? I wish I could take all of the credit but I really have to take my hat off to the developer of Puppy Linux, Barry Kauler. Puppy (and Grafpup) uses the squash filesystem method of compression to reduce the size of the cd image by about two thirds. Then, through the magic of unionfs the whole filesystem becomes writeable again.
For a full explanation please go to the Puppylinux website, www.puppylinux.org. Another aspect of the incredible size to utility ratio is the careful selection of applications that goes into Puppy and has made its way into Grafpup. Applications are chosen for speed and simplicity, avoiding bulky and wasteful code. Grafpup uses icewm as its default (and only) window manager.
KDE or Gnome arent even considered. Opera is used as the default browser and email client, instead of the common combination of Firefox and Thunderbird which would be half again as large. Though small, you will find that ROX-filer is one of the best filemanagers that you will ever use. It just plain works. I have further cut down in certain other areas in order to leave room for some serious heavy duty graphics applications.
Even though things are cut down, you will find that Grafpup is a fairly complete operating system and most tasks can be completed without the need for additional software. You will be able to browse the web, send and recieve email, write and print documents, organize your digital photos, and watch dvd movies and video off the internet.
You will also be able to burn cds and dvds, create impressive graphics and animations, put together professional looking web pages, and create press-ready brochures or other materials for print. And Im talking about the live cd without any additional software.
Visit the Grafpup and Puppy package repositories and you can unlock as much potential as any of the most popular Linux distros out there. There you will find such powerful software as OpenOffice and the Seamonkey internet suite. You can create 3d graphics using Blender, or even install and run a large selection of Windows software using Wine.
Try it and see for yourself. Since it is a live cd there is very little, if any, risk involved. I believe you will be pleasantly surprised at what can be done using such a tiny system.
Enhancements:
- Grafpup 2.00 (final) is officially on the mirrors. This release comes with some really bleeding edge features when compared with previous versions, such as a 2.6.20.2 kernel, revamped package management with dependency resolution, GIMP 2.3.14, Cinepaint 0.22 with the Ufraw plug-in, a brand new control panel, cdrkit replacing cdrtools, Openbox replacing IceWM, and a host of other changes. In addition to the light-weight Openbox desktop, you can also easily download and install both Xfce and KDE. The software repository has blown up to include over 1,100 titles (and counting).

Convert::ASCIInames 1.002
Convert::ASCIInames is a Perl module that includes ASCII names for control characters. more>>
Convert::ASCIInames is a Perl module that includes ASCII names for control characters.
SYNOPSIS
use Convert::ASCIInames;
Convert::ASCIInames::Configure(fallthrough => 1);
$name = ASCIIname($character_ordinal);
$name = ASCIIaltname($character_ordinal);
$name = ASCIIdescription($character_ordinal);
$name = ASCIIaltdescription($character_ordinal);
$character_ordinal = ASCIIordinal($name);
Most if not all of the non-printing characters of the ASCII character set had special significance in the days of teletypes and paper tapes. For example, the character code 0x00 would be sent repeatedly in order to give the receiving end a chance to catch up; it signified "no action" and so was named NUL. The sending end might follow each line of text with a number of NUL bytes in order to give the receiving end a chance to return its print carriage to the left margin.
The control characters (so-called because they were used to control aspects of communication or receiving devices) were given short 2-to-4 letter names, like CR, EOT, ACK, and NAK.
Some of these special purposes have become obsolete, but some of them are still in use. For example, character 0x07 (BEL) is used to ring the feeper; 0x05 (ENQ) is recognised by many terminals as a trigger to report their status; and 0x08 (BS) still means "move the cursor back one space".
This module will return the ASCII name for specified characters, or the character code if given an ASCII name. In addition, the full descriptive name ("Start of Heading" instead of SOH) is available, although reverse translation of the descriptions isnt provided.
Some control characters have altername names. Character 0x13 is named DC3 ("Device Control 3"), but is probably better known by its alternate name of XOFF. These alternate names are also available through this modules functions.

TinyMe project exists to create a remaster of PCLinuxOS 2007 that will be quite slimmed down. The target is to get a functioning ~150MB ISO image that can provide a base installation for other MyPCLinuxOS projects, development, playing around, installation to old computers, where a minimal installation is all thats needed, and any other situations where a tiny Linux installation is required or desirable.
We want to create something that can compete with distros like Puppy, DSL, Feather, NimbleX, and PUD for speed and size while maintaining a similar level of functionality through the GUI.
Username/Password:

root/root
Enhancements:
- Fixed most open bugs. Only remaining major open bug (in my opinion) is that TinyMe still doesnt auto mount removable media.
- I switched to GDM. This allows us greater flexibility with our login manager. Also, it enables Shutdown and Reboot options on logout.
- AbiWord was installed, with all the plugins your heart desires. Create and edit ODT, DOC, WPD, and many other formats.
- Idesk now handles the desktop instead of PCManFM.
- Enabeled LXPanel transparency.
- Added Grafburn for burning CDs and DVDs. Thanks to Nathan Fisher of Grafpup for Grafburn.
- Created Welcome page. Fire up Opera to see it. (Did I mention Opera handles web browsing, mail, Bittorrent, and IRC chat?)
- Conky is a SuperKaramba-like desktop monitoring applet which has been added. GKrellm was fired. :-)
- Do you like music? Audacious was added. Audacious is a lot like WinAmp and you can use WinAmp themes on it.
- MEdit proved to be somewhat buggy. Although I rather liked it, I opted to use SciTE instead. Enjoy.
- Changed Mrxvt to the default terminal. Mrxvt is a tabbed terminal, plus it has some pretty cool transparency.
- Galculator is a quite small calculator added to test 5.
- Xarchiver has been added for its wonderous abilities to open just about any compressed archive, including RPMs and ISOs.
- MtPaint was added. MtPaint is a very basic picture editor. You can also use MtPaint to take a screenshot.
- XKill has been added and a menu entry created for those balky programs which hang on you.
- Tweaked overall look n feel some more. Added 2 wallpapers (okay, its 1 wallpaper; 1 is 4:3, the other 16:10)
