I tried to download tahrpup 6 and neither download sites (ibiblio and nluug) gave matching MD5 hashes. I use the following page to check them, and it has been reliable: http://onlinemd5.com/ e.g. tahr-6.0.2_noPAE.iso File gave: 27F3626B691A3FAE4330F7DC5CA61F7F Against: aea446d52c6e31588b4b715b531068d4

Hi, I made a keymap and installed it two ways and tested it inside Slacko Puppy and Ubuntu. It is for romanized Singhala, very similar to Icelandic. That experience was made into a tutorial and posted at the link below for you to read and catch any errors or misstatements. Otherwise, it seems to me ...

Thanks. It worked!

Now, is there a way make it happen automatically? That is, when the screen resolution is changed, for the drive icons to get placed properly?

Thanks again,

Naena

Thank you guys. You have given enough information to mull over. I think both are equally good alternatives. musher0, I read the readme.txt inside the /startup folder you suggested. It says this: ''Note, if you want to execute something at bootup and prior to X desktop loading, edit /etc/rc.d/rc.loca...

This is about version 5.6.1 (may be all versions). When I run xorgwizard, it resets the xorg.conf file destroying my keyboard settings. Perhaps the wizard should offer the user an option to retain keyboard settings? DETAILS: I use two keymaps, one for English and one for romanized Singhala. Both use...

I used puppy in the 800x600 resolution for awhile and changed it to 1024x768. Procedure used: 1. Ctrl-Alt-Backspace 2. run xorgwizard 3 selected VESA 4. selected the higher resolution Now the drive icons, all except the one for the CD drive are not at the bottom but several rows higher. The lock, zi...

Musher0! I apologize for the delay in replying -- that's rude. I forgot it for awhile because of some scary personal events. (Everything's under control just now). It worked perfectly. Thank you also for explaining how it works. Now maybe I can try some other fonts too. (I am making a broad one that...

Hi, great puppy doctors.

I changed the Backdrop of my Puppy Precise (5.6.1) to a lighter colored one. Now I want to make the text in the main menu lighter weight. The bold text is a bit out of place. Is thee a way to do this? May be specify a different font and select normal weight for it?

Thanks

I am new to Linux and Puppy Linux. There is a smartfont I made in 2006 and would like to make improvements to it using Fontforge. I find that this discussion is 2 and half years old. Would anyone reading this tell if there is a PET package to install Fontforge? If not, where to get the different fil...

Well, here I am again. The system I am working on is 525 upgraded with the late-breaking patch. Last few days I tuned the new system. It has a perfectly working menu; I uninstalled programs that do not work and those which are duplicates. Then I added Skype and Team Viewer. It has Firefox 5.0 (It up...

Bruce, You make it easy even for a baby to understand. Of course, the great citizens of The Peoples Republic of California are far, far more skilled on matters regarding computers than say, the ones in Texas. They now come here physically to educate us. (ha, ha!). All in jest, buddy. I need to learn...

Bruce, I think I did not understand you. I looked and what I see is in the attached graphic, as seen at: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/index.php?f=3 Anyway, please do not make any links yet because we haven't finished the CD iso to a point that it could be released. I just wanted to plan ahead. T...

Hi Flash. Sorry to bother you again, but I notice that there are only three sub-forums, for Spanish, German and French. I refer to the following page: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/index.php?f=3 Perhaps what you meant was that the web site John Murga so kindly allows us to use for the forum is gr...

Thank you, Flash.

I'll take your advice.

A puplet extended to Singhala is in near completion. How do I create a sub forum?

L18L,

Thank you, Ma'am / Sir.

I also found why those things I said don't seem to have a purpose. My Windows Manager is OpenBox. (Though I do not know how that came to be).

Pardon me for my ignorance.

L18L, So, you like to say Europe than Germany? I suppose most part of Europe is Germany, right? I used K9 because I thought it is kind of polite than saying you dogs, ha, ha! The police units that have trained dogs are called K9 Units over here. So, K9s are respected in this culture. This country be...

maxerro, Thank you and I appreciate it. I already did it. It is already taken care of. I like to do things in a ways, if possible, through understanding what actually happens in the background. Technosaurus gave me the clue. So I looked how the Help icon was setup and set my one exactly the same way...

Singhala Help File: =============== I took technosaurus's advice on placing an icon for the special help file on the desktop. Then on both the right-click menu and the start menu, I have a Help group that has the regular help file and the Singhala help file. The problem is to preserve them. 'fixmenu...

Thank you for your continued help, bigpup.

I installed the PET package, set thew menus the way I wanted, and ran 'fixmenus' that ruined it all.

I did not mean to disappoint you, but I am.
