I have successfully booted puppylinux on Asus Chromebox (Celeron model) via USB stick or SD card: 1. Put Chromebox in developer mode http://dak1n1.com/blog/20-asus-chromebox-fedora-20-install 2. In ChromeOS, press Ctrl-Alt-F2 to open terminal, login as chronos (no password required) 4. Apply SeaBIOS...

Will Fatdogarm run in HP Chromebook 11?

A strategy that works for me is to avoid having a savefile all together because I have enough RAM (4G) and I use the cloud (Google Drive/Dropbox) and seldom save stuff locally.

I then symlinked some files to /usr/lib from Seamonkey's folder that are needed by Google Chrome. ... I also found it necessary to symlink /lib/libudev.so.1.3.0 as /lib/libudev.so.0 I gave up on Quirky 6 as my main OS some time ago because I could not get Google-Chrome to run. These are the instruc...

XBMC running under wine works well with the proprietary nvidia driver installed. Billtoo, have you considered running openelec (a lean version of xbmc) vs xbmc on wine/quirky? I multi-boot openelec off of the same Quirky 6 USB stick with Precise 5.7.1 in it as well. Openelec runs lightning fast bec...

After a night "pet" hunting for missing shared libraries (libgconf, libgcrypt, libgpg-error, libudev, libdbus, libdbus-glib), I was able to make some progress in getting google-chrome to run on Quirky6. I was using 6.1.2. I found google-chrome pets at http://yadi.sk/d/zTshLczR4wHj8 Howeve...

Hi @Timothyli And, as suggested, if could be a video driver issue on the local PC. My ignorance in this matter suggest that it could be the fact of HTML5 (Chrome) vs Flash (Seamonkey) or it may be a codec issue (version). Again, my ignorance suggest this. Hope this helps Thanks for the suggestion. ...

This is more about Seamonkey than Quirky6. Does anyone know why this video podcast, one of my favourites, is so laggy under Seamonkey? http://twit.tv/show/this-week-in-google/231 I have Chrome browser on my other puppies and it plays fine under Chrome. By the way I just did a fresh install of 6.1.2...

I installed 6.1.2. I found a small bug. There is a dead button (Desktop background) in JWM Configuration Manager screen. /usr/local/jwmconfig2/jwmConfigMgr calls an action "wallpaper" but "wallpaper" does not exist. I symlinked /usr/sbin/qwallpaper to /usr/sbin/wallpaper to fix i...

I applied what is (hopefully) a generic fix, at end of file (I did not change that "lt"): #140107 fix if image not in subdir... if [ ! -f /usr/share/backgrounds/${ASPECTRATIO}/${IMAGEBASE} ];then echo "/usr/share/backgrounds/${IMAGEBASE}" > /tmp/qwallpaper_reshaped #set_bg will ...

I upgraded to 6.1.1 and the wallpaper setter seemed to be broken for me. I no longer can simply drop an image file in the /usr/share/backgrounds folder and set it as my wallpaper with the options of stretched, centred or tiled. When I tried to select an image, Quirky throws out an error message: &q...

"Error loading backdrop image: Failed to open file '/usr/share/backgrounds/160/snow-leopard-server-wallpaper.jpg': No such file or directory Backdrop removed." I saw the same thing after installing the Qwallpaper pet in 6.1 (except folder was numbered 125). I *thought* I did things right....

I just bought a USB 3.0 32GB Lexar Jumpdrive Model S33 from Bestbuy for $14.99. It is rated at 100 MB/s read and 55 MB/s write. The first thing I did was to put Quirky 6.1 on it and It ran buttery smooth. Sweet :). With the newer USB drives coming down in price and getting faster, I think Quirky 6 i...
