  321. Wary Puppy is intended to be our on-going commitment to older hardware.
  322. Puppies built with recent Linux kernel and X.org may not work properly
  323. on older computers. In particular, some analog dialup modem drivers
  324. cannot be compiled with recent kernels. Another major area is old video
  325. hardware not working with latest X.org drivers. Many of our
  326. leading-edge puppies are built with recent kernel and X.org, however
  327. Wary is built with an "old" kernel and X.org 7.3 so
  328. as to provide better drivers for the older hardware. However, Wary is
  329. in all other respects at the leading-edge like the other puppies, with
  330. recent applications, and support for all modern peripherals (printers,
  331. scanners, cameras, digital modems, etc.). Wary is also built with the
  332. latest Woof, so has the same infrastructure as other recent puppies.<br>
  333. <br>
  334. The packages used to build Wary were originally compiled from source in
  335. T2, then binary PET packages created. Wary is now built with PET
  336. packages, with a small but growing repository. As Wary is intended to
  337. be a long-term-supported project, there will be no major upgrade, only
  338. incremental improvements such as application upgrades and bug fixes.
  339. Thus, the PET repository will remain viable for years ahead and will
  340. continue to grow as developers contribute packages.<br>

  354. <h3>Wary 5.0 release notes</h3>
  355. Wary 5.0 was released on December 29, 2010. The version number "5.0"
  356. does not imply any relationship/synchronisation with other Puppy
  357. releases, such as Lucid Puppy (currently nearing 5.2). Wary 5.0 simply
  358. signifies this is the first release of another fifth-generation Puppy.<br>

  424. <h4>Wary 5.1.1</h4>
  425. This is a very minor bugfix upgrade of Wary 5.1. The main problem in
  426. 5.1 is that the 'jimtcl' PET package was accidentally left out, which
  427. is needed for detection and setup of some USB 3G modems. You can
  428. install this PET without upgrading to 5.1.1:<br>

  430. Other minor bugfixes are in the underlying Woof infrastructure (see notes above).<br>
  431. <h4>Wary 5.1.2</h4>
  432. Once again, the focus has been on bugfixing, but also some packages are
  433. upgraded. Most of the bugfixing has taken place at the Woof level, see
  434. above. Additional notes specific to Wary 5.1.2:<br>

  464. </ul>Note that I decided to stay with SeaMonkey 1.1.18, as 2.2 has a badly
  465. broken Composer module. Also, 1.1.18 is smaller and better suited to

  467. those on dialup and download-limited Internet connection.<br>
  468. <br>
  469. A couple of projects that need special mention: BaCon and gtkdialog.
  470. BaCon is a superb BASIC compiler, and gtkdialog provides sophisticated

  472. with very keen developers and users.

  487. <h3>Wary 5.2 release notes</h3>
  488. This is a massive upgrade relative to the 5.1.x series. All of the base
  489. packages were recompiled in T2. Certain choices were made in T2 with the
  490. plan of seamless upgrading from Xorg 7.3 to 7.6 -- that is, the default
  491. Wary system has Xorg 7.3, but it is planned that Wary can be upgraded
  492. to Xorg 7.6 by installation of a single PET, and all applications will
  493. work before and after. This required some very careful configuration.
  494. The idea is to "have our cake and eat it too" -- Xorg 7.3 for old
  495. hardware, easy upgrade to 7.6 for newer video hardware. The plan
  496. actually seems to be working.<br>
  497. As usual, huge changes yet only a small version-number change. Many bug fixes, upgrades, new packages. Summary:<br>

  524. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Introducing Racy Puppy</span>. Wary 5.2
  525. has the 2.6.32.45 kernel. As noted above, Wary can be updated to
  526. support modern video hardware by installation of a single mega-package.
  527. If we go the whole-way and also build with a very recent kernel, then
  528. Wary is no longer "wary" but targets the very latest hardware. This
  529. rebuild of Wary, effectively pulling Wary "up by its bootstraps" has
  530. even been given it's own name, <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Racy Puppy</span>. Racy will be released soon. <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02518">1</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02510">2</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02481">3</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02479">4</a> &nbsp;

  532. <h4>Wary (and Racy) 5.2.2</h4>
  533. Wary 5.2.2 is a bug-fix and minor upgrade of 5.2. Simultaneously, Racy
  534. puppy, our "Wary on steroids" is debuting, with the same version number.
  535. There were some Woof-level bugs in Wary 5.2, fixed, announced above.
  536. Here are release notes specific to the Wary and Racy builds:<br>
  537. <ul>
  538. <li>GTK 2.24.8, fixed slow drop-down lists &amp; SM insert-key crash <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02594">1</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02595">2</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02597">3</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02598">4</a> <br>
  539. </li>
  540. <li>New app: Planner project manager <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02592">1</a> <br>
  541. </li>
  542. <li>Wary is built with 2.6.32.45 uniprocessor kernel. Racy is built with
  543. 3.0.7 SMP (multiprocessor) PAE kernel. Also, the former uses Aufs, the
  544. latter Unionfs. <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02553">1</a> <br>
  545. </li>
  546. <li>Apps upgraded <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02589">1</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02586">2</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02565">3</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02564">4</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02563">5</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02561">6</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02559">7</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02557">8</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02555">9</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02554">10</a> <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02544">11</a> <br>
  547. </li>
  548. <li>Wary and Racy are both now built with the full Mesa package, Intel bug fix <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02574">1</a> <br>
  549. </li>
  550. <li>Printing from some apps was broken (ex: Abiword) <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02567">1</a> <br>
  551. </li>
  552. <li>New app: Peasyprint <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02562">1</a> <br>
  553. </li>
  554. </ul>
  555. Racy has Xorg 7.6 and the 3.0.7 kernel, Wary has Xorg 7.3 and the
  556. 2.6.32.45 kernel. Racy boots straight to X on first boot, and launches
  557. Quick Setup, whereas Wary runs the text-mode configuration dialogs,
  558. including the Xorg Wizard, before starting X. Otherwise, everything
  559. under-the-hood is the same, and PET packages from the 'wary5' repo
  560. should work on both. Note, the 'wary5' repo is still a bit light, but I
  561. hope to improve that. Though, the selection of SFS files has improved.<br>
  562. Basically, if you are asking whether to use Wary or Racy, the former is
  563. intended for older computers, especially uniprocessor CPUs and for those
  564. who still access the Internet by analog dialup modem. As to choosing between Racy, Slacko, Lucid, etc., that is up to you...<br>

  570. <h3>Wary (and Racy) 5.3 release notes</h3>
  571. Read about 5.2.x above, it all applies to 5.3, with only a small number
  572. of package upgrades. The real changes have occurred at the Woof level,
  573. in particular pervasive support for internationalization, plus a
  574. "multitude" of bugfixes. There are now 'langpacks' available for many
  575. languages, and these also include translations for most of the
  576. applications used in Wary and Racy. Brief release notes:<br>

  591. <h3>Wary (and Racy) 5.5 release notes</h3>
  592. The last official release was 5.3, on 5 April 2012 (<a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02784">1</a>), and there were two betas for the next version on 28 September 2012 (<a href="http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=03011">2</a>), and 3 December 2012 (<a href="http://bkhome.org/blog2/?viewDetailed=00056">3</a>), followed by a lull, then a series of Release Candidates in February (<a href="http://bkhome.org/blog2/?viewDetailed=00148">4</a>, <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog2/?viewDetailed=00151">5</a>, <a href="http://bkhome.org/blog2/?viewDetailed=00157">6</a>).<br>
  593. <br>
  594. Most of the system libraries and some major apps have not been upgraded
  595. since 5.3, but a lot of smaller apps and utilities have, notably those
  596. created "in house" by our very enthusiastic
  597. developers such as zigbert, rcrsn51 and 01micko (plus more guys!)<br>
  598. <br>
  599. What really has progressed significantly since 5.3 is the Woof
  600. infrastructure, bringing a plethora of bug fixes and enhancements. These
  601. improvements have made it imperative to release a new Wary (and Racy).<br>
  602. <br>
  603. Note that Wary 5.5 has the same old 2.6.32.59 kernel (configured for uniprocessor i486 CPU), as we have a heap of
  604. 3rd-party analog (dialup) modem drivers compiled for it, plus others.
  605. Note also, most of those modem drivers are included in the live-CD
  606. .iso file -- which is partly why Wary is so great for "retro" uses such
  607. as analog dialup and old hardware. <br>
  608. <br>
  609. As already explained above, Wary targets old hardware, whereas
  610. Racy targets newer hardware. Racy has all the "innards" of Wary, except
  611. various things are upgraded to suit newer hardware -- especially Xorg
  612. and the kernel.<br>
  613. Racy does not have as many analog (dialup) modem drivers, nor true-SCSI drivers. For that, you need Wary.<br>
  614. Racy is intended for "more modern" hardware than Wary, but not
  615. necessarily the very latest. Think perhaps most hardware a year or more
  616. old.<br>
  617. Another way to separate them is that Wary is optimised for single-core CPUs, whereas Racy is optimised for multi-core CPUs.<br>
  618. <br>
  619. Racy 5.5 has the 3.0.66 Linux kernel, configured without PAE support
  620. (so only accesses first 4GB of RAM), and for a i686 CPU. It has SMP (multi-core) support.<br>
  621. <br>

  636. <b>Kernel Mode Setting</b><br>
  637. A note about KMS, for those who know what that means. Wary does not use
  638. KMS at all. Racy has KMS enabled (by default) for the intel 'i915'
  639. kernel module and
  640. for the 'nouveau' kernel modules, but not for the 'radeon' kernel
  641. module. Wary doesn't even have the 'nouveau' driver, only the
  642. 'nv' driver (Racy has both, but the 'nv' driver is by default not used).
  643. if you have an nVidia video card and experience difficulty getting
  644. either the 'nv' or 'nouveau' driver to work on Racy, please go to the
  645. Puppy Forum -- this is an issue that we are currently targeting to try
  646. and make setup smooth.<br>

  688. It is so easy to create a custom Puppy, either by using Woof or
  689. remastering the live-CD (there is an super-easy remaster program in the
  690. Setup menu), and this has resulted in a huge choice of custom puppies.
  691. The main problem is finding out just what is available. A good starting
  692. point is the Community News page:<br>
