This page might help with the SD card.

I don't have a machine with one of those built in so I can't really test much over here.

Good luck.

cant find sd card even in pmount.. I had an SD card once that I formatted in my pocketpc to fat32. It wouldn't show up in linux no matter how hard I tried. Does it show up under gparted? My final solution on that was to reformat it in linux to fat32 and then it worked. Make sure to back anything up...

I'm not too into comics myself but a good friend just mentioned the CBR format to me the other day so I was doing a bit of looking into it. Have you guys tried this out? http://comix.sourceforge.net/screenshots.html I thought that looked pretty cool and would get you away from the qt problem. Depend...

I've never run a scanner in Linux but this page might help get you going:

Probably you need to edit

/etc/hiawatha/hiawatha.conf

where xxx = your address on the LAN

Hello sickgut, I don't currently run any servers but have run several in the past, including from home. Puppy (and linux in general) is pretty secure by default. Couple quick start up tips: 1-change your root password 2-firewall settings, allow only the ports for the services you wish to connect to ...

Sounds like a resolution problem. ctrl+alt+backspace out to xterm and run 'xorgwizard' when done, type 'xwin' at the prompt and hit enter. repeat as needed. There are also more precise tuning measures for specific machines. Searching google for your laptop and XORG config might get some more insight...

just do this part, if the modules are in there (you can test by doing the modprobe line) modprobe hfsplus mount -t hfsplus -o rw /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1 rox /mnt/sdb1 assuming you only have one internal and it's the first usb drive with hfs+ (probably is + at this point). adjust sdxx for drive and parti...

hmmm...using a "fake name" on the internet....

who ever would have thought of doing such a thing

me and all my personalities and profiles agree that, that is a strange concept.

Here is a list of the tools i need: These are in devx (as you noted on some): gcc (included) c library headers check -> glibc-devel make (included) automake (included) autoconf (included) more headers -> libglib2.0-dev still more -> libgtk2.0-dev valac These are in puppy: c library check -> glibc l...

I moved an XP install to new hardware once successfully, but I had the full set of drivers from this tool bundled in: http://driverpacks.net/ It also required two reboots and a lot of luck. The driver wizard actually froze up on the first boot and the keyboard and mouse only started working after th...

Can you post your grub config? Maybe something got messed up.

Also, make sure the BIOS is as up to date as possible.

I had a compaq that wouldn't boot Puppy from HD until I did that.

You might consider learning to do it yourself, and reap the reward of knowledge and "eternal having".

It's not that tough.

I also recommend hyawatha instead of apache. It's lighter weight and supposed to be more secure.

whoops, missed that completely... I haven't been on a computer much for a few years.

depends on if it's a full or frugal install. I've got something like this for my full install: # End GRUB global section # Linux bootable partition config begins title Linux (on /dev/sda1) root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1 ro vga=normal # Linux bootable partition config ends I don't h...

when it stops, type:

xorgwizard

when you are done with the wizard and back at the prompt type:

xwin

should work for you every time you bork the xorg.conf, so feel free to keep trying on the dual monitor thing

oh, where did my tuner go. oh, where did the Os go?

make sure the Windows machine has netbios disabled, so that it is using smb for sharing.

the settings are under the network interface somewhere.

tcp/ip -> advanced something like that, you'll find it.
