1. Die gewünschte Erweiterung, erkennbar an der Dateiendung .SFS, herunterladen und auf der obersten Dateiebene (/) des USB-Sticks, auf dem ihr Puppy Linux installiert habt, speichern. 2. Nach dem Download muss die im Dateinamen abgelegte Versionsinfo noch angepasst werden. Betreibt Ihr die Puppy L...

Hi, habe festgestellt, dass ich mich auch direkt mit root@puppy einloggen kann. Ist das nicht zu unsicher? Auf meinem "Debian-Rechner" kann ich mich nicht mit root einloggen, sondern als user. Anschließend wechsel ich dann mit "su" und Passwort zu root. Tjaa, das ist die Preisfr...

Nicht, daß ich auch nur annähernd ein "Experte" auf diesem Gebiet wäre (oder mir gerade ein Puppy-Rechner per ssh zur Verfügung stünde), aber ... - warum loggst du dich nicht direkt als root ein? Ich nehme an, aus Sicherheitsgründen? Wenn du das ermöglichen willst, mußt du in der sshd_conf...

Apparently the Asus EEE contains a recent Atheros chipset, AR5007EG, with device ID 1a3b:1026. The MADWiFi driver does not yet support this particular wifi chipset. We will need to monitor developments there. In the meantime, the solution is to use ndiswrapper, version 1.49, as Hacao reported here ...

If you use Firefox, Google does NOT have to be your default homepage, even if you use it frequently. That's what the little 'Search' box is for on the top r.h.s. If you have an aversion to the dubious business practices of Google and Yahoo, Firefox offers a plethora of alternative search engines (I...

Doesn't look too good .. discussion Oh wait, that URL has a session ID. Here's the gist of it: "You can already disable the warning, you just have to figure it out on your own. Think of it as a test before letting users shoot themselves in the foot." But there may be hope ... "Btw. yo...

*cough, cough* Those sections may be part of what's languishing in my inbox ... OK, no more procrastinating now.

Assuming your save file is still readable to a certain extent, this thread may come in handy. It's a bit messy, but you should be able to figure it out. Make sure you follow Bruce_B's instructions, not my original ones. First of all, back up your corrupted but precious pup_save before you attempt th...

The easy way out would be to rum amule as root, but you probably have your reasons for not doing that. I checked Ubuntu's man page for mount, and it lists these options (among others) re mounting FAT filesystems: uid=value and gid=value Set the owner and group of all files. (Default: the uid and gid...

I feel bad about getting involved in your howto, but There are some errors, which would prevent it from working or lead to some user confusion. How about fixing it and I'll delete the critique? Also, feel free to use the text at the bottom. Errors and omissions are in red. Please don't take offense...

If you _don't_ need thumbnail functionality, I recommend qiv. Also available as a DotPup. Once you learn the keyboard commands, it is the fastest of the bunch. It is started from the command line and takes a directory or a file as the argument, like this: qiv . qiv /mnt/hda3/pictures qiv pictures/fa...

Also, viel sexier wird rxvt auch nicht, aber ein paar Optionen kann man setzen: versucht mal rxvt --help, das sollte Erklärungen bieten, wie man z.B. schwarzen Hintergrund und grüne Schrift bekommen kann, diese häßliche Scrollbar loswird etc ... Dann könntet ihr euch einen Anwendungsstarter backen u...

Das könnte eine Enttäuschung werden - ich habe zwar keine Erfahrung mit USB-Routern, aber davon wird allerorts abgeraten unter Linux. Braucht anscheinend Treiber, die es wieder mal nur für Windows geht. Andererseits hatte ich selber mal eine FritzBox SL und kann bestätigen, daß man per Ethernet unte...

Sorry for bumping an old thread, but maybe this information is of use to people having the same problem. I still use 2.15, but this could apply to more recent versions as well. I now have ADSL via ethernet modem. (Please be aware of the difference between a router and a modem.) All I got (and needed...

Using Puppy 3.0,I started a new pup_save file (512mb) and deleted the old one. Then I installed a program (snotes), which reduced the free space on the file to 403 mb. That was fine. But then I decided I didn't need snotes and deleted it, using the appropriate wizard. I then went through the files ...

Very strange problem indeed, I think you're the first to report something like that. Linux does have another way of getting to a console. Press Ctrl and Alt and F2 at the same time. This _should_ bring up a black screen with a line saying: puppypc login: If you can see this, good. (If not, press Ctr...

Do you use the Cisco VPN client to connect? If so, things should be pretty straightforward. Yes, there is a Linux version for Cisco VPN; Puppy 2.15 works with version 4.800. You will need the devx_(puppyversion).sfs because installing Cisco VPN requires the kernel headers. Run the install script. Ma...

I've got ssh and sshd to work on Puppy 2.15. Two threads were especially helpful: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?search_id=271373408&t=13357 http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?search_id=271373408&t=18281 I can't recall which of the packages mentioned there I insta...

Hi Wolf Pup, I had (or have) the same problem (posted about it a while back but got no replies ...). I think it has to do with what screensaver you are using. Try not to use a graphics-intensive one, just "blank" maybe - Getnikar's suggestion sounds right to me. It seemed to work for me an...

Das hat mich zuerst auch verwirrt: es gibt kein Programm mit Namen "xsane". Was es gibt, sind xsaneshell, sane-find-scanner, und noch eins, glaube ich. Kann sein, daß xsane eigtl. ein Symlink sein soll, der auf xsaneshell verweist. Kann auch sein, daß ein Script aus dem Dotpup vergebens na...
