Open Office Writer 3.x can open docx files. My greatest headache with Puppy so far has been network printing. I've ran Puppy for months without printing. Any print job is sent to my other machines through pnethood. I wish Puppy would just autodetect network printers and then ask the user for permis...

It was originally HPLaserJ 1505. I had changed it temporarily to HPLaserJ1505 but then that created issues with other windows computer which were connected to HPLaserJ 1505. So I had to turn back to the original HPLaserJ 1505. smb://QAIINDIA/QAI/HPLaserJ%201505 Didnt work either.. I have to give my ...

I just need to get it working. For starters I am not using wireless which I believe share the majority of problems. I have a Wired LAN. Now I am going to give additional tit bits of information which might help rcrsn51 debug my problem. When I try to connect to the host computer "QAI" thro...

Update: I still cannot see Puppy in Network neighborhood of other computers, nor typing in RUN, "//puppy" help. But this did: //10.11.0.15 It showed me a folder containing puppy and now the administrator just needs to manually enter my PC's name and that he'll do :) One last problem, the e...

Can the Puppy machine see itself (run Menu->Network->Pnethood)? What configuration file are you using - the one I posted, the one you posted, or something else? If you run /etc/rc.d/rc.samba restart in a terminal, what does it say? If you run Menu->System->Pprocess do you see nmbd and smbd listed? ...

Sorry for the late reply. I followed the steps given in

Hi disciple, Yes you are dead right about it.. But when I tried to change my smb.conf file, I found it to be somewhat different from your own file (as in some options were even missing). I don't need to get the printer working on my computer (as it doesn't have one :P ). I just need to give them the...

I have started liking Puppy too much and too soon to get converted into Xubuntu.. I have landed upon a "jugaadu" http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=mozilla&rls=com.puppylinux%3Aen-US%3Aunofficial&q=define%3A+jugaadu&aq=f&oq=&aqi= method to come over it.. Simp...

I tried so hard, and got so far.. But in the end, it doesn't even matter!! Lol don't take my sense of humor in the wrong sense.. I couldn't have felt more pathetic.. I used up my full office day in just getting the printer connected and I come to know there is no solution to it.. Developers are work...

Hello everyone! :) Now there is a strange problem bugging me here. I am running Puppy Linux through Live CD and as you can see I am easily connecting to the network and posting this problem..

Thank you for taking out your time to reply! :) Yes I had installed Likewise in Ubuntu pretty successfully, by what you've written it appears it can be installed in Puppy too! Is that true? If that is I won't have to go through going about the configuration of Samba and Kerberos as mentioned in the ...

Okay here I go once again! All the computers in my office run Windows including the server. I am the only one who has installed on his PC, Ubuntu Intrepid which I find too slow on my machine. So I have been running Puppy Linux through Live CD so as to explore if it could work out for our organisatio...

I don't see any package which could help me join a Windows domain as a Puppy Linux user.. In Ubuntu we could use Likewise, I cant see a solution in Puppy Linux and that is giving me second thoughts about installing Puppy..

Please help someone! This will decide if I shall be able to install Puppy Linux on Office Computers or not!
