My serial mouse decided to not work again last night. This is with the same pup001 that worked previously! However it was an intermittent problem. I restarted my PC a few times. Sometimes it worked. Sometimes it didn't. I got the most success when I waited the 10 seconds at the boot prompt. I NEVER ...

Guys - I got my serial mouse to be recognised. Viewing other posts in this forum about other problems I saw a mention that it is good to boot into Puppy from a cold start. What I normally do quite often is to do a bit of work in Windows and then restart to boot Puppy. This is what I call a warm boot...

FLASH What happens for me is the machine boots from the CD-ROM displays the picture of the puppy and then prints: Could not find kernel image: 1 boot: _ Typing ENTER to the boot prompt simply causes the boot: _ line to reappear. I have found that if I do an install to NTFS (Poor Mans Install) it wor...

I am one of those 624 who downloaded the md5 file! Can I just say that the concept of Chubby Puppy is brilliant. It is not just the fact that it is on a 96MB live CD. Because it is embedded with Puppy it is in RAM and FAST to open!! I have been playing with Open Office for a while and it was only re...

Thanks guys. I don't actually type the brackets. They were put in my post for convenience. Also I have tried ttyS0, even though my mouse is on COM port 2. I have also tried moving the mouse to COM Port 1 (and using ttyS0) but still no luck. I DO have an internal modem that according to Windows is on...

Puppy 1.0.4 hangs when selecting Serial Mouse (intermittent)
I have an ancient Windows 98 PC. When I boot from the Live CD it asks for my Keyboard (UK) and then for my mouse type (Serial) and then the port (ttyS1). In brackets is what I type. It then displays the screen to select a video display mode but the mouse does not work so I cannot select one! I have ...
