Re: Proposed: a Puppy subversion repository

As more people participates on different Puppy projects it becomes important to coordinate the work. In the past I have proposed creating a repository to coordinate this effort. I've done some research and found that our best option would be to use a subversion repository. Many open source projects...

Re: Die! NTFS.

Today, Barry writes: "The 2.6.16.7 kernel supports safe writing to NTFS partitions" and tells us: "Puppy2 now has full NTFS write-support enabled". Why, Barry, why?! You may be an undisputed genius, but it's always been my view that those using XP & NTFS deserve all they get...

Well, that's the bad thing :oops: I'm currently not running Puppy. I've installed the software on Windows.

Damn, I hoped (since there's a Linux download on the site) that it would work in Puppy.
Can someone compile it? :oops:

Damnit :-? The forum ate my previous post! I hope it tasted well! Anyways... I too was put off by the looks of the site. A redesign, imho, would be a very good idea. Perhaps a webmaster can be appointed (or a designing competition could be held). But please, let the competitors use at least css! I'l...

Code: Select all

Response times seem good :-)

I would however advise not to install mods (or at least not much). I think this forum might turn out to be very large eventually. Mods (not the moderator type :-P ) might make migrating to the next phpBB version more difficult!

It's a bit slow, that's true, but the more it is used, the faster it will become (at least that's how I understood it).

Reduce bandwidth usage by using Coral cache?

Would it be possible to reduce bandwidth usage? http://wiki.coralcdn.org/wiki.php

Would be nice if all the puppy sites had more bandwidth available ;-)

Hmm... This is probably why our professor started with Java ;-)
If you get OOP right from the start, it seems so logical :-P

And I've done little programs like you say: the post-office and similar things.

Well, I do have to admit it's getting slow, but like the above person says: money is needed to change such thing ;-)

Out of curiosity: what is the forum hosted on? Is it on a personal server, or by a hosting company?

And what's the monthly bandwidth usage?
