mr.nasty the 'son' has a mother. And an absent father who communicates with mum via the internet. It is my opinion that Mother (intel chip_set + other chips(at present unknown) on motherboard) is software enabled HARDWARE in the form of a PCI BRIDGE (that's the one WITHOUT a vendor ID) and therefore...

Since Bk is unavailable. My Computer is Dell 1300 Laptop; 256M Ram & Intel_chipset mr.nasty is very VERY active on my machine - the only software that will run is Puppy - I've tried lots & lots of other dists. and for one reason or another they don't work. So I have a vested interest in seei...

Barry could you get in touch with me - internal mail is fine - its important

Sad to hear next version is based on 2.14 - BUT should you get around to base 4.01 Dingo then could you include MUT & Xnetload as they are MOSt usefull to me. (there doesn't seem to be an Emoticon for SELFISH!)

Thanks for info. I've got a suggestion, instead of SAFEPUP, why not create your own using the "Remaster Puppy live-CD" application with a SECOND OPTION. This second option takes YOUR whole-system ,files & all, and burns them to disc - without the tweaking options. The only boot option ...

Yup that did it.

Another glitch is when playing the game kpat>'spider patience' it inexplicably REBOOTS the computer - any thoughts as to the cause? It could of course be the game itself,as when playing on Suse-OS it just hangs-up.

Hi John, I'm still well pleased with TEENpup - BUT whenever I look at the clock I quickly shutdown & rush off to dinner, only to be disappointed because I'm 90 mins TOO early :!: I've checked the system clock & that's ok; so why 90Mins into the future? Is this some ploy to stop me finding-ou...

Hi Geoffs
Use the "Idiots approach" [back it up to an external source in its entirety] then it doesn't matter about how complex it is - understand it later!

By the way, its my approach since I am THAT idiot.

Hi GeoffS Your better off sticking to cd - when you have a hard disk installation & it gets screwed it normally stays screwed! (It normally does with me - so I have re-Imaging software for windows & the system I described for puppy) Then no matter what's done to your set-up you can always co...

Hi Geoff I cannot help you with your error BUT I can help you if it happens again:- I have ALOT of experience with "other software" and hence make it a rule to be quickly able to undo stuff if everything goes pear-shaped - this is what I do with Puppy:- I copy the pup_save file to a differ...

I tried the change in desktop image (lion sketch - that was the most Boring available) and it did cause odd problems. So changed back to the default and all seemed okay for a bit and then problems. So I re-booted but still had funnies occuring. There is obviously a connection - it needs a GURU to so...

I get around it (if I remember to do it) by deleteing the 'u' in pup - then doing the reverse before I leave the new distro.

A better way would be a Choice at boot-up to ignore looking for the pup_save file ie treat it as a new installation and take the file from the cd (hda) instead.

I am fed up of having to remember to RENAME my pup_save.2fs file everytime I try or use a NEW Distro - why not take a look at pizzaPup's way and look for YOUR_OWN unique ?_save file.

Why is there no Firewall & no-way of setting the default ?

i haven't noticed bubbles not working maybe you got a bad download did you check the md5? i never do but it couldn't hurt cb88 I've checked my copy of 2.14 (bought cd - not download) and it crashes as well. Therefore either I have a screwed-up computer OR something is different with pizzaPup! The b...

Thanks for your reply pizzapup - I'll check my copy of 2.14 (I never thought of that - I must be getting senile)

I've tried your distro & its very good - I noticed especially that you got the FUN_game bubbles to work properly. :roll: It doesn't work properly in puppy 2.16/.17 - better tell BK what you did, since it might give futher indications of 'whatever!'. Your distro is the 1st one to be added to my l...

Thanks for your reply. I resolved my problem by using the iso-cd-burner in 2.16 - I would have done this earlier if I had found it (a sub-menu of Multimedia) but I was looking in the obvious places System,Utilities,Filesystems etc. It never occured to me to look in an entertainment section. I'm late...
