Yes, there will be a way. But you'll need to define the problem more. Are the two computers on the same network? If so, it would be easier just to share the folder containing the music with Windows "file and printer sharing", and access it with LameSMBxplorer or pnethood. If the two compu...

I think I have found the problem.

On the fresh install of puppy I did not do the xorgwizard and I guess it was causing some problems.

It all works now.

Thank you for the information. This method is a bit longer than usual but at least I have the option now. :)

Also, thank you for introducing me to Weechat, it looks like a smaller version of irssi.

Re: Saving Settings

Also, how do I get the firefox browser icon from the menu to the desktop (sorry, I know this must be covered somewhere)? If you click on the "browse" icon on the desktop it should immediately open up firefox for you. If you right click on the icon and go to > File 'browse' , you will see ...

"Yes, he linked me to a dodgy website that was selling some program " And which site was that? Show me the money. Might have been smarter to post your question a little more clearly. How to remotely access Puppy from Windows 7? I would use Teamviewer. http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopi...

You say you're running Lucid. Is that 5.2.5 or 5.2.0? There's a reason for this question. It has to do with the Lucid installation process. One has an install bug. Let me know which. The latest, which would be 5.2.5. And I am transferring files from one laptop with puppy on it to another with Windo...
