Are you using "Classic" Yahoo mail, or the horrendously slow new Yahoo? On Classic, I see the behavior you have described. It only seems to happen if the Yahoo input window is in "rich text" mode however. If you switch to plain text, Yahoo does not eat the extra carriage returns ...

Sound muted by default is much more common than it might seem. alsamixer must be run from an Xterm or in the console.

Which puppy did you try? Have you tried others? Did you verify that your CD was burned successfully(does it work on another machine?)

I would recommend trying again with an older or newer puppy, especially one with a different kernel version.

What about boot parameters(ACPI, etc.?)

Re: Bundle 2 install advice?

Anything special I need to do? Or just try to install? You will need to have dri(gl acceleration) enabled for Braid and Osmos. Install the recommended Mesa for your puppy+video card. For Braid and Cortex Command all you need to do is download the installer binary, chmod +x (make executable) the fil...

No change in this problem, or this.

Ogle's Edit, Preferences has no effect. Should it?

Ogle View, Keypad causes a keypad to be displayed. Clicking on one of the keypad buttons leads to Ogle closing silently.

Osmos is beautiful. I've had a lot of fun with Cortex Command. Braid wont run(it supposedly needs driconf to enable texture compression.) I tried it on Ubuntu 10.10(which also needed driconf.) It did run, but crashed constantly to the point where it was unplayable. Hopefully Number None will release...
