2. XineDVD
XineDVD is the default DVD player in Lucid 5.2.8. It doesn't have any problem with DVD menus as gnome-mplayer does sometimes. This pet is configured as XineDVD is in Lucid with the nice Antares skin and set as the default DVD player. It also contains the latest xinelib 1.1.20 (compiled in Slacko) so it will play most videos (and audios).
3. Openbox
OpenBox is configured as in Lucid, but with the Deep Thought theme from Puppy529 Three-Headed Dog which goes nicely with the Slacko wallpaper. Use Menu > Desktop > WM Switcher after install to select Openbox. Install this after installing the lupufy-slacko utilities (or run PupClockset).
For more information please see Lupufy Slacko forum thread.
