Any pointers on the best way of tackling this?

Hi, I need to make a custom mouse cursor theme for puppy 4.3.1. I have been round google and have found a tutorial which makes sense, but it uses Xcursorgen to generate the cursor files. Puppy seems to be missing this, is there a pet for it? Or is there an easier way to change a few of the cursors i...

Is Xcursorgen still in puppy 4.3.1?

Is there a way to stop puppy from looking for a mouse and keyboard and not displaying the mouse type selection box?

this might be a way round it

With a USB keyboard and mouse attached it works fine, although the "Performing a 'switch_root' to layered filesystem" takes a couple of minutes. without the keyboard and mouse attached, it just hangs there I am running it on an ATOM based pc with 1GB ram and a 4GB flashcard I have remaster...

I am trying to run G-pup 1.2 with no keyboard or mouse attached and it hangs at Performing "switch_root" at boot.

Any ideas on how to fix this issue

When I was building a new image of Puppy from a full hard drive install, I had installed the devx_412.sfs to the hard drive to compile and install pieces of software (namely the latest flash for Firefox). Now I have added all the software I need to and I want to remove the devx files from the hard d...

Finally fixed it!!! Thanks tubby.... rc.local has lines: ifconfig eth0 up dhcpcd -d eth0 Then I deleted all the .conf files from /etc/network-wizard/networks and deleted etc/resolve.conf. It works and gets an IP address at boot. The .conf files in the network-wizard folder and the resolve.conf file ...

Thanks I will have a look at that tomorrow and let you know how I get on.

tried the dhcpcd eth0 command in the rc.local file with no "-d" flag, still doesnt work.

Once the system has booted and I run it in a console window, it works fine, just not on boot, where i need it.
