thank you

Some months ago I found a little hint in a tricks and tips post that allowed your location to be shown in the terminal. ie instead of # you got /usr/blah/blah or ~/etc/blah/blah. It was a simple trick, just a very small change to a file somewhere but I have just had to reinstall from scratch and can...

Puppy linux is also very happy and maybe, just maybe, you should ask yourself whether walking around with your head buried in the darkest depths of your own anus is actually a pleasant browsin(sic) experience.

STOP! Hold the phone! Let me take a wild guess here....you don't have the 431 devx.sfs installed do you.... So go here http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/puppylinux/puppy-4.3.1/devx_431.sfs and get it. now put it in /mount/home which should be the same place your pup431 sfs is. Open m...

Hi, sorry I was quite ill for a few days and couldn't / wouldn't get to a computer. I thought that the .blender folder contained the GLIB stuff. I don't have the folder on my system any more as I deleted later the same evening so I can't check. Check to see whats inside the .bender folder and if it ...

That's going on the bug tracker.

Ok, downloaded the file and left clicked. pzip opened and I extracted cleanly. No wrapper failed to exit for me. There is a readme file and it would be quite a good idea to read it! There is also a hidden folder so you will need to click on the icon in the rox toolbar to show hidden files. Pair of b...

saucy

No, seriously, this is a BIG issue on the forum, if you trawl the posts for any month a good proportion are to do with this. Fix it and many new users first reaction is not WTF? but Wow It Works!

This issue is on the bug tracker http://code.google.com/p/puppy-developm ... ells=tiles
Please give it a nudge and get it to the top of the list! issue 21.

I often get the wrapper exited with an error a lot with tar.gz's but they still seem to work. I suspect there is a different file you should be clicking on or even opening from a terminal. Are there any folders called make or install or (even) readme? If there is a readme it is probably worth invest...

Backup from a frugal/ No problem siree, step this way;- Navigate to root and open a new file. (right click option). Open that file in geany, a simple left click should suffice, dear sir, and paste this little number into it #!/bin/sh #script name : mybackup mv /etc/.XLOADED /etc/xloadedx cp -f -v /m...

There's Tranmission which is a reasonable torrent downloader or ptorrent which is a command line torrent downloader, not so easy. Not sure about about straightforward p2p though. Have you tried google?

And , of course, the next step is to put an entry in the menu. So, go to the folder where you extracted the driver too and rename the icon to xerox.xpm. Now drag it too /usr/share/pixmaps This is easy to do if you open two rox windows (rox = file browser, menu-filesystem-rox, one window shows your d...

Xerox Phaser 6110 installs and works fine in Puppy 431. You will need this gtk+12-1.2.10 and this glib12-1.2.10 available here http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=358155 Install these two pets first. Next, download dvex431.sfs from here http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/...

latest news is that it was a malware problem and Prevx have had to apologise to microsoft for there previous comments that the problem was caused by a windows update.

MU that's really beautiful, kudos to you.

37fleetwood: Calling you damm stoooopid is a reference to the fact that you are dammmmmm stooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooopid not because I can't spell stupid. And of course I am going to abuse you, that's what you want. You only posted the mindless shite that you posted because you wanted t...

Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't this war started quite some time ago by a man called BUSH after some Saudi Arabians decided to hijack a couple of airplanes over New York. Obama (note the spelling, odd that a foreigner can spell your presidents name but you can't) is trying to finish what someone...

Try asking on the softmaker forum, they are usually very helpful even for "old" versions of softmaker.

Hi barkingmad, this is a bit of a dirty fix and might not be applicable to your problem but then again it might. Delete the mplayer .bin file and drag a copy of the vlc .bin file into the same location. Absolute link it and then rename it so it has the same name as the deleted mplayer .bin. Now, whe...
