Sorry I haven't posted in awhile or offered any news or updates. I've been a bit busy with life and haven't had time to work on Pup2p-3. A few things I'm looking for (would help me get to Pup2p-3 sooner) is .PET packages for the following software: Truecrypt 6.2a Latest Tor and Privoxy Any Tor relat...

No, it's not appearing in the menu. The .desktop file should have: [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=InstantBird Messenger Icon=/usr/local/lib/X11/mini-icons/mozicon128.png Comment=InstantBird Messenger Exec=/usr/bin/instantbird Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=X-Internet GenericName=In...

UPDATE: Fixed menu entry and icon issue. Found InstantBird today, it worked so I packaged it up. http://www.instantbird.com/ I don't know if the menu entry is working right but you can navigate to /usr/bin and drag and drop the instantbird link to the desktop to create a shortcut there. the icon is ...

hmmm why not try the icewm thats in 4.2.1 http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/puppylinux/pet_packages-4/icewm-402-v9.pet uninstall ezpup first ttuuxxx Thats the one I used. It acted same as the one in ezpup. Like I had said, I think there is a missing dependency but not sure how to fi...

Ezpup is a version of Icewm that Whodo made, 4.2.1 has ICEWM already included, why would you want to install this? The best thing to do is uninstall it, then click menu/shutdown and click the advance tab, now click 'switch to icewm' and 2 seconds later you'll have icewm if you wanted some of the th...

I'm making a request for anyone willing to do it (I tried and failed everytime so far) to make a .pet with the latest Pidgin and the Pidgin Plugin Pack.

http://plugins.guifications.org/trac/wiki/PluginPack

Tried 4.0v5 and don't get what I expected. It is unusable.

Some details:
* Puppy barebones 4.2.1 modded to suit my needs
* Official Nvidia drivers installed
* Full DRI xorg installed
* Screenshot below

So how would I fix this?

:D Hello, When the remaster script says: "Have created the directory /tmp/root, if you wish to make any changes to it before inclusion in the final .sfs" ect... Delete / tmp /root and copy your /root directory to / tmp to replace it.. Then continue the remaster process.. You will then get...

Or you could just use ssh.

ssh username@host

If I'm not mistaken you can even specify password
ssh username:pass@host

I use just ssh while on linux, putty while on windows.

Have not tried it. However latest stable Firefox works wonderfully.

I'll have to check it out later today when I get home from running errands.

EDIT: Problem solved

My wishlist: Perhaps freenet could be added too (the big advantage of freenet is the distributed storage of files, which makes censorship-sensitive publications near indestructible even if the original source is taken away) Another nice addition could be a PSIP or other softphone with Phil Zimmerma...

For those curious I was using 4.2.1 Barebones. ALSA was setup and was working (played sounds after setup). The .pet package of vlc I downloaded only came with basically OSS and when running vlc it complained of a lack of /dev/dsp

So, I found the alsa plugin and plopped it in and it worked.

It still doesn't blink. I set it to put a * on the window but that still isn't as good as blinking.

It bugs the holy crap out of me that the pidgin windows (I hang out in IRC a lot) don't blink in Puppy.

Is there a way to fix this?

EDIT: New Issue fixed, see below on how No sound. I have ALSA setup and working. VLC doesn't seem to have an ALSA output and only has oss. How would I get audio working? UPDATE: This was fixed by downloading the following slackware package, decompressing and copying the alsa plugins to the audio_out...

EDIT: Added a mimetype for .pet on my hosting account. This may clear up the issue. Please confirm. Hi Noname, Using livecd 4.2.1 It is the dl that shows only page with symbols. Using the pet no problem if at last I get the Pet. I'd have to look into it but I see no reason for it to act that way. L...

Dl iso should work: gives prompt "save to disk" but the pet gives me page with only symbols. Tried also Opera. Just clicked on the link ? The .pet is a Puppy Linux package. You have to make sure you are on Puppy Linux to use that. If you are on puppy and it does what you say, what version...

I used to not believe these "FEMA Camps" existed until I seen one. There's one not too far from here hidden in the middle of a city but away from sight. It is staffed, very tall fences around it with razor wire on the tops of them. Well kept up yet no "residents". Seen it a numbe...

The ISO? What browser are you trying to download with? What's the exact URL of the download with symbols?

I ask because the ISO and .PET download fine for me on Firefox. Just tried it.
