1. In "/opt" I see the full "palemoon" folder with all its sub-folders. Same for "/root/.moonchild productions". i.e. NOT symlinked. 2. In "/mnt/home" I see both the "palemoon" and ".moonchild productions" folders with their [almost] identi...

Oops... 1. Having [saved session changes, and] rebooted... a. Palemoon will no longer run from clicking on the "Menu->Internet->Palemoon" entry. Also... b. When I enter the "palemoon" command at the terminal command prompt, it returns: "bash: palemoon: command not found"...

1. Open 2 ROX-Filer windows, one at "/mnt/home", the other at "/opt". Drag the Palemoon folder from opt over to home (move your cursor over it, hold down the left mouse key, drag it over, release the key). Click "Move" on the context menu which opens. Then drag the fold...

I'm running 28.0.0 (32-bit), and it keeps [request to] auto-updating to 28.0.1, which uses up too much of the 466M of space left in my 1.9G [2.0GB] slackosave file.
Is it possible to move the files off the slackosave?
To /mnt/home?
How?

Firefox 62.0 (32-bit) is my default browser.

Does anyone know how to [easily] get SaveMyModem to blacklist domains or senders?

28.0.0 (32-bit) "just works" for me.
And it's working better than version 24 did [which would eventually freeze Youtube video, and I had to copy the url to "Slimjet" to play the video].

1. ...client avoids adverts, unwanted news and browser bullying. a. I use "SaveMyModem" [SMM] to "connect" to SAFELY take a look at what emails are on my POP3 server. Safe because it only displays the text content; no chance of being infected whilst doing this. b. Then I choose w...

I packaged firefox-61.0.1-en_US-x86-p571.pet which should work in slacko 5.7, too. It has builtin apulse and libdbus upgrade from dpup-wheezy. It installs along the builtin outdated firefox and does not interfere with it. It makes itself the default browser overwriting /usr/local/bin/defaultbrowser...

I made a new "Pupsave Hot Backup" immediately the "save" of the final changes. There's at least one or two things still needing done: a. When I click on a link in an email in Thunderbird, it auto-opens a new TAB in an existing window rather than opening a new window. Semme? b. An...

Done.

Semme has used TeamViewer [version 12.0.85001-i686.sfs on my PC] to do lots of useful stuff on my PC. I've asked him to report here what was done so that all can benefit from the knowledge, and possibly some increased understanding. I'd be interested to know and understand also. All is working nicel...

Thanks for this Mike, but since I already have "firefox 61.0.1" functioning, I think I'll keep your suggestion in reserve. I do like portable programs and SFS files, but not right now in this case methinks. Today I'm going to be working with Semme by PM. Will report back here on the results.

1. Normally the Browse button is instead a link to /usr/local/bin/defaultbrowser. You can remove the item Browse button from desktop... I'd rather keep the "browse" button as is, and have it continue to be linked to the 3urls file, and perhaps modify the code inside the 3urls file, so as t...

1. right click the Browse button and choose Show location. Report here. It shows: "~/my-applications/bin/firefox_3urls.sh" which I find in Xfe as "/root/my-applications/bin/firefox_3urls.sh". 2. ...If I had your PC here I'm sure I would successfully remove your old firefox... Sem...

1. Follow watchdog's advise regarding your other question. To which question do you refer I wonder? The Puppy search page? Semme sent me a PM giving.... http://puppylinux.us/psearch.html .

When I click "restart to update Firefox" [Firefox Quantum version 57.0.4 (32 bit)], the system then freezes, and I must ctrl+alt+backspace to reboot and no session changes are saved [my system only saves if I tell it to].
