Tahrpup64 6.0.6 CE

Don't know why or how but my usb icons are gone. Hard-drive partition icons are visible and mount and unmount as required.

I have gone blurry eyed reading posts with no luck.

Help please :oops:

Transmission Update

I managed to get 2.92 but need 2.93 or 2.94 for my book site. The Tahr pet that I have doesn't work. Any suggestions? :(

Transmission Update

Hi, thanks for the quick response. This morning I realized that I had posted in the wrong spot. My excuse is 14 hours of fighting through a northern Ontario Blizzard to get home. If a moderator wishes to put the post where it should be, please do it.

Puppy is Tahrpup64 6.0.5 CE

Again thank you :D

Transmission Update

On my favourite book site (myanonamouse.net) they no longer allow Transmission 2.92 or Lower. :evil: Could someone please make a pet of 2.93 or higher.

Desperate for a certain book. :wink:

G4DOS

A bit too technical for an old Fart. I have grazed through so many posts my eyes fell out. LOL

It seemed so simple - install TCE to the same partition as Tahr64 6.0.5 and run grub4dos in Puppy just like always and I would be able to select from the boot menu which distro to run. :cry:

TinyCore and Grb4Dos

HI all I have used Puppy for many years and finally dumped Windows off my dual boot box 3 years ago. I have never had an issue with grub4dos not finding a puppy and putting it on the menu list. I am using Tahr64 6.0.5 frugal on sdb1 for my main distro and have had at least three other frugal pups on...

Proprietary Video Drivers

I tried to find a 64 bit driver for my Radeon HD3300 card. Using the video upgrade wizard doesn't help. I am not sure which package to download nor how to install it.

I need it to run calibre. :D

Calibre Ebook Manager

I have tried quite a few times to get Calibre 2.35 or later working but no matter what addition I make it always seg faults (or screws up my Puppy). I require 2.35 or later as there is a change in hardware recognition. I have a Kobo Glo HD. The 2.33 sfs does not recognize it when mounted. :cry: I am...

Not a problem. Always whiney people like me around.

Fastest puppy that I can recall . Just flies. Will devx603 work with retro version or wait for a rebuild?

Thanks a bunch. Your hard work is definitely appreciated.

Working

The retro verison boots and all else falls into place. Sorry if you misunderstood my previous post. I did try all boot menu items but all failed at the same place. So now I can play with JLH and determine if it will end up as the go to distro. Thanks to you and GC Martin for sorting out my problem. ...

Nope just burnt iso to cd like all others. Prefer to keep things simple which is why I use Puppy. Sorry, but if I cannot boot staight from cd or dvd it is not of use to me. In the past I used Lighthouse pup without any problems.

Good luck and thanks for the effort.

Boot Issue

Md5sum correct but all boot attempts stop at cannot find JL64-603.sfs. The same thing happened when I tried 602. Nice boot screen which goes to load drivers and then stops. The sfs requested is on the cd (burned with Burniso2cd). Fatdog64 and Tahr Ce all work fine on my box.

thanks
