Re: How do I define "persistent" bash aliases?
Starting a new terminal or running the file from the terminal didn't work (or maybe I did something wrong). But after a reboot the aliases defined in .bashrc were loaded when i opened the terminal :) Running a script (like .bashrc) by name like that really means "load a child shell, run this s...

Re: How do I define "persistent" bash aliases?
.bashrc should work, but you'd have to start a new term (or source the dotfile) to see it in the current session.rga wrote:Hi everyone,
I have tried putting them in ~/.bash_aliases as I do in Ubuntu, and I have also tried to put them in ~/.bashrc but i can't get them to work.

Re: Is Google-Chrome a totally CRAP browser?
And as everyone knows, browsers are all about bookmarks! An odd claim. I've used browsers since Mosaic and don't remember anyone making (much less supporting) that claim before. * One might make a counterclaim that browsers are "all about" fitting on a 1.44MB floppy; Opera used to be famo...

I believe that taking and sharing (P2P) at the same time is a much fairer way to getting information than just being a taker without making any attempts to ever share .(as so many are). ... The availability and use of P2P does NOT mean misuse of Intellectual Property. It is merely a Publicly equal ...

It's possible to replace one file on a torrent and turn you into a botnet.
Think about it.

I've never used Ekiga, but from their website I get the impression calling landlines and mobile phones is available: I do use Ekiga on my *buntu desktop, although I actually prefer the lighter Twinkle client much of the time. Ekiga is referring to diamondcard.us when it mentions outbound calls, alt...

Thanks, trying it out now. I installed conky and got most of what I want. I removed the battery mon out of ~/Startup since it wasn't doing anything useful. Thanks for the nudge. BTW, I use fluxbox on my deskop; it's lovely and clean. I don't use it on the netbook because of all the rightclicking req...

Re: past sfs's
Hi All I was just about to say I have a bug then read the post about incompatible sfs's. But did not think that was going to affect the save files. At one time I think I remember puppylinux offering to upgrade a save file or something like that. If I was to rename it to the new name system would it...

As I said, out of respect for the students it is my job to read exactly what the students submit.

^I think you are referring to file encryption within the file system. I am referring to an option to encrypt and password protect the save file on a USB install. This is a user option that I only see referred to on the very first save of a USB Puppy - the user can specify heavy, light or no encrypt...

Re: How to change password for encrypted USB key install?
The problem is that I chose light encryption and created a password for login when I installed and I do not want folks using this password. Can the password be changed? Can encryption and password protection be removed? Dunno the answer but I am following along with interest. There is/was a .pet th...
