Joe - what's the bootloader used by YUMI? If it's GRUB then you'll have to look at either menu.lst or grub.cfg Thanks Jamesbond. So since my post, I played around with it some more. YUMI uses syslinux.cfg (which is found in the 'Multiboot' folder created by YUMI). But I needed drill down further in...

Installing Fatdog64-630 with YUMI (Multiboot USB Creator)

Hello Gents, When I install Fatdog64 using YUMI , I no longer see the syslinux.cfg file where I add the 'append' path to my savefile. The result is a 'groundhog-day-like" boot-up, where I'm prompted to create a new savefile. Has anyone tried multi-booting Fatdog64 with YUMI or some other multi-...

That's a bug, when you quit or don't use the wpa_gui, the local loop-back is not setup. That will be fixed in the next release. I've attached a pet to fix that. I don't have any helpful ideas about the other problem. Thanks Kirk, it seemed to have done the trick! Since Xampp localhost comes up fine...

wpa_gui vs Network Wizard

Hello, I've been running Fatdog64-601 off my thumbdrive for about 1 week (still offloading stuff from my 521 build). I noticed that with wpa_gui, if I close out of my browser, the LAN connection drops off. When I open the browser it re-establishes the connection. It also seems that if I'm on a webpa...

Ok, so I removed the 'search' parameter and was able to reduce the waitdev to 1 sec (go figure).

Thanks again rcrsn51!

Thanks rcrsn51, worked like a champ! Changing the append statement to look like:
'append search savefile=ram:uuid:ECF6-A259:/fd64save.ext4 waitdev=10'

did the trick.

Not able to create a savefile

Hello Gents, It's been a while since I've last visited the Fatdog forum. I've been using Fatdog64 521 and have been very happy with it. Was curious in trying 601. For test purposes, I've created a quick USB boot version of 601 using Unetbootin (live USB). For some reason, I can't get the OS to recog...

Moonlight plug-in for Fatdog's Aurora browser?

Hello gents, I've installed Wowza Media Server on Fatdog64. I am able to stream content from H.264 HW encoders to my intranet. My Windows-based laptops are able to view the streams using the MS Silverlight plug-in. I tried installing the Moonlight plug-in ( http://go-mono.com/moonlight/download.aspx...

It works! 521 easily upgraded my existing 520 save file to 521. Also I learned about enabling 'right-click' taps while trying out Kirk's tip. Very cool. Thanks again.

Hey Kirk & Jamesbond, I've been using Fatdog64 520 and loving it. I tried 521 to see if there were any differences. My touchpad (tap to select) is not working, although I am able to use the touchpad to move the arrow. I've gone into 'Setup...Adjust Touch Pad' (flSynclient) and have confirmed tha...

Thanks Jamesbond. Just to be certain, the Wary-based 32-bit compatibility library is the 'fd64-32bit-libs-6.sfs' module, right?

You're a good man Kirk. Re-loaded qt4, Bibletime is fully operational in Fatdog64.

Is it necessary in Puppy to load MP3 functionality? No, it's included. Jim1911, is correct. I uploaded a pet package for BibleTime-2.8.1, It has a couple of bug fixes patched in. It requires the qt4, clucene, and sword packages installed. Please note the the qt4 package requires a reboot. Jim and J...

Hi Joe, I've not been successful installing Bibletime to Fatdog. I don't know if there is a 64-bit version for you to try compiling. I recommend that you consider theWord, a Windows program which IMHO is the best free Bible software available. With Fatdog, I personally use Windows versions of Bible...

Hey Jim1911, Bibletime worked on my copy of Puppy 5.2.5. However I just bought a new laptop that did not like 5.2.5 or 5.2.8 for that matter (HW driver support issues). Long story short, I'm running Fatdog64 which works well with my new laptop. However when I install the Bibletime SFS or pet (tried ...
