I tried this usb boot loader and it works well on one of my older computer, which is very temperamental on usb. Thanks for this solution.

I would run in terminal “jwm -p" (no quotes) and see what it shows as the faults.

Code: cp /initrd/pup_ro2/root/Choices/ROX-Filer/PuppyPin /root/Choices/ROX-Filer/PuppyPin restartwm This is a minor technical error. To restore an original file to the top layer of a frugal install, it is not necessary to copy it to top layer from the pup_ro2 (normally it is this layer) to the pup_...

Try reducing your inline_limit to “5“ in puppy-utility.menu.

Of course you have to do a fixmenus in terminal after the change is made and then restart jwm.

Yes, that got it cooking with Window 7 on my son’s machine. I was just using the shares program before. It only needed the share name (Downloads).

Thank You for the new pet, it worked .

As a bread and butter user, I find Fatdog to be very good, it has the applications I use from the get go. The one minor fault I have is that the installed Samba will not connect to Windows 7, but XP and Linux do just fine. I don’t use Windows 7 much anyway. I like having Qt configuration working, so...

This is from jwm configuration.

TaskList
Add a task list to the tray. This tag supports the following attribute:
maxwidth
The maximum width of an item in the task list. 0 indicates no maximum. The default is 0.

Just go to /root/.jwmrc-tray, it’s hidden so hit the eye in toolbar of ROX Filer. With a text editor change to this. Changing to a 0 as shown.

Good to hear you fixed it and yes it is confusing having two window makers. Please, edit your first post and mark it Solved.

You have of course switched to JWM and are not still in Open Box? Try in a terminal console typing “jwm -p

I avoid grub 2, but look here for answers:

Looks like every thing is all right. With the ide and sata drive mixes the bios of the computer has to sort things out with a reboot. On my computer, I had to go into the bios adjustments and tell it which drive to prefer first, it wanted to use the ide drive. I am booting off of the sata 3 500 GiB ...

Have you ever noticed that Lupu Puppy 5.2.5 does not behave correctly in the menus? The main menus breakdown into sub-menus with only one item in it. This is happening even when the configuration files are correct for the xdg menu manager, these control the main menu layout. We have found one soluti...

I only offered my way as an alternative because jamesbond was not sure it would work. If it works, let me know - I’ll explain why it works. If it doesn’t work - well, I don’t need to explain anything right? I have finally tested jamesbond’s way, it does work and is more technical, but, in the end I ...

To start without xwin, I just remark it out in /etc/profile at the bottom. #want to go straight into X on bootup only... if [ ! -f /tmp/bootcnt.txt ];then touch /tmp/bootcnt.txt # aplay -N /usr/share/audio/bark.au dmesg > /tmp/bootkernel.log #exec xwin #Just add the # here fi fi Kal

This pet may work for you, it does for me in Quirky full install.

Hi rcrsn51: When you reboot it’s back. Because it makes a new modprobe.conf back in /etc. WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/.
