Thank you Andre!
That's what I call a community - one day one wrote wouldn't it be nice
to have own Revolinux distro and the next day he is about to download
it :-)
It would be good to make it small enough to fit into a single CD/LiveCD.
Thanks again and
Best wishes!

Hi, Peter,
indeed, some time ago I used to deploy simple Revolution apps on Puppy.
They worked. Apps were compiled using the old engine (2.6). However I
have never tried that again with the new Rev 4.x, some day I will :-).

Yes, of course standard Debian has an update manager which pops up, if you
want it to work that way. That's how you will

OpenSuse have now produced a system whereby one can choose to build
one's own version of Linux in the cloud. When all the configuration
is done, the distro can then just be downloaded and installed.
It is certainly within the

I guess the upshot of this whole discussion is that everything is a tradeoff.
To gain stability we have to lose some freedom. The most stable government is a
dictatorship, where only one man's wishes are done and everyone complies with
the standard he issues. But of course, nobody wants that.
YES !!

Very interessant synthese. Thanks. It seems it would be a good idea to
be back to Suse (i used it from the 5.3 to 9.2 distros, in the past,
