Hi This is my first go around with Macpup511 or Macpup for that matter. I must say e17 is a BIG change from the usual Puppy. I was really glad to see Macpup picked up on my ttySL0 winmodem with no addon pets to get it working. There does seem to be a problem thou? Where it pupdial? It’s not in the m...

And what would A.J. do with all those sheep, besides take photos?

That is the sharpest looking menu I’ve seen since we started playing around JWM themes way back when. But, that grey taskbar has gotta go. LOL

I must apologize for my rather rude response to your post. I’ll admit it I jumped.
If I had slowed down and re-read your entire post again I would have realized it was meant as a hypothetical scenario? After all it was you that started the thread about “Sharing puppy apps with the World

John I think Barry should review this post. After all, MOST of the code in Legacy and all the other derivatives belong to him and is licenced under his GPL agreement. http://www.puppylinux.com/development/project-statement.htm Legal issues Concerning the licencing of Puppy. Puppy is GPL, and has bee...

ttuuxxx I found a problem with frugal installs and My analog modem. I was running 4.32-002 on a full HD install before so I didn’t notice it until I totally borged puppy beyond repair.LOL This time I burned the ISO to a DVD-RW and after booting the DVD I also installed 432 to a USB stick using Puppy...

ttuuxxx Not trying to hose up your holidays here but abiword is very erratic. In the middle of typing into a document the cursor will suddenly jump to another part of the document. This is not just a 432 problem, it also happens in other recent Pups. Also copy and paste out of abiword sometimes cre...

 What a mess of a menu.lst. I would hate to see what grub4dos would create if you had two windows version (XP,W2K)on the same HD and lets say 3 other distro's beside and Puppy of course

ttuuxxx The Good, The Bad and The Odd Odd: I was very surprised that my ttySLO modem was found on the first boot from the live CD. This modem usually requires a second boot to be picked up on. At least that was the way rerwin configured it for some winmodems. It did take a second boot after I did a ...

smokey01 Thanks for the delta. A 37Mb file should only take about 2.5 > 3 hours coming from your site. I have been having a real bad time with large downloads from ibiblio.org and the mirrors. I get about 25Mb into a 130 Mb file and the download stops saying it’s complete :( Thanks Again: & Merr...

I have had enough of wary and lupu for awhile. I have your 432****001.iso and would like to try your upgrade but being on dialup it’s really tough to get a working ISO
Any chance of getting a 001 > 002 delta?

Puppy’s original universal installer gives you the option to install grub to:
First: to a floppy “Safe"
Second: to the SUPERBLOCK of the linux partition “Safe

if it's not included those who prefer grub will need to install Lucid and then boot something else to install Grub. Any applications someone prefer but not built in the distribution have a chance to get them from the PPM or the web. (You need not boot up another distribution.) As for the legacy gru...

LOBSTER ROFLMAO I remember that “ Puppy Database “ thread very well. The bottom line is most people do not know the difference between a database and a spreadsheet template for data input. This was Microsoft’s doing by buying out Ashton-Tate dBASE ;( discombolixt The bottom line is, if you want a...

The hardware clock on this computer runs on UTC and the timezone is Australia/Sydney. On bootup the clock initially shows UTC but when configured from the Gui it changes briefly to about right but then reverts to UTC. Isn't there a checkbox for Local or UTC Hardware time? That doesn't help? I don't...

The same Firefox 3.6 pet that Wolf Pup posted in the first post can be downloaded from:
http://puppy-development.googlecode.com ... ox-3.6.pet
It does replace the default browser on the desktop and works great in WARY 0.98

rerwin So you are having just about the same problem with your 537 as I was having with my pctel??? Could it be the same kind of problem, one module loading and taking control over the one that is really needed and not so much an init or pause issue? This request is off base but is there a reason fo...

Pupdial already defaults to the ATX3DT command in WARY.

JWM configuation is broke. Can't change wallpaper by clicking JWM configuation > Desktop > Desktop Background icon.
ROX has no right click option of Set As Wallpaper.
Pwallpaper background chooser works but the images must be located in /usr/share/backgrounds only.

rerwin Ok, I formatted sda4 and did a fresh FULL install off of my DVD/RW This is how it went: First boot: -ran pupdial and it found ttySL0 -pupdial > CHOOSE > ERASE -back to the CHOOSE window and tried ERASE again and the window went blank and froze :( Killed pupdial! -back into pupdial > CHOOSE >E...
