G'day, I have many Pups on each computer and now each computer connects to the home network and router via Wifi. I use Pwidgets in 32-bit Pups and Conky in 64-bit Pups to display on the Desktop, the wifi status among other stuff. I have seen that the naming of the same wifi dongle varies between Pup...

G'day, I had the problem that the personalised save folder on a hard-drive Pup was incompatible with the personalised save file of a USB made by Puppy. Replacing one with the other did not work. Would a 'personalised' adrv_xxx.sfs do instead on the USB? If I remember correctly :oops: ..................

G'day pauloesb, Sometimes when I find Bionic runs something then I try it in Slacko/ScPup and it comes up with missing libs, I just copy them over from Bionic. Need a few Rox windows open - mount the Bionic puppy sfs or its savefile if some libs had to be added to Bionic as well and go to usr/lib or...

G'day ozsouth,
Thanks.
The general driver collection may come in handy next time I have to buy a 'Linux Support' peripheral - if not, it looks like your 'How To".
David S.

G'day ozsouth, I found your original answer to the rtl8192eu wifi driver issue that led to this thread and wondered if there is a repository in Puppydom for these and other specially compiled drivers? For non-compilers :oops: :cry: . Recently, I had to buy a TP-Link TL-WN823N USB wifi dongle that th...

G'day, Thanks for all those who've responded to my strange problem with new Telstra Smart Modem (router). It's certainly made me smart - in the painful meaning of that word. By blundering around in the new "Arcadyan Smart" modem/router's internals (logged into 192.168.0.1 then using the de...

G'day Chris, Thanks for the Whirlpool 'reminder'. Your link is a bit old (2018) but maybe there's something newer I can find. I'm on the Telstra CrowdSupport forum with this problem as well. A website run by volunteer helpers(!), given Telstra actual support (by paid employees) is of poor reputation...

G'day bigpup, Thanks for persisting with possible answers for my strange wifi problem. Every other device and computer in the house does not have the wifi Smart-Modem not-seen problem - will changing the Telstra Smart Modem channel cause any issues with these other devices and the good Pups and W7 o...

G'day rcrsn51, Yes, it is a possibility but not one I can immediately do anything about as far as I know or have any expertise in. Do you suspect one of the three main wizards which seem to have been Ok for years now? When a Puppy won't connect, all three wizards fail to see my Smart Modem but do se...

G'day bigpup, Thanks for your inputs. But I don't think it's a bug in EoanPupEF as I have this same My-Modem-Wifi-not-seen problem with some other Pups on the same laptop. Some Ubuntu-based but others not. I think it's the new Modem, being the only common thread apart from the many Puppies I have. S...

G'day, I am still finding USB wifi dongles failing to see/report our new 'Telstra Smart Modem' (connected to our new National Broadband Network or NBN) when scanning in some Puppies. A Good Puppy reports on a wifi scan with BK's SNS our modem with strong signals and neighbours' wifi with weak signal...

G'day Peter, I think you're using the latest version of DPupStretch - RC5. I've found an earlier version of radky's DPupStretch which doesn't have the annoying-for-you 'i' button at the right bottom corner of the systemtray or systray - if I've finally found that bit of the desktop's proper name :ro...

G'day Peter, You could try this: Plan A. 1. In System right-click menu, select QuickSetup first-run settings 2. A dialog box should open something like mine in the attached image. 3. If you see 'Keyboard numlock' ticked, untick it by clicking on it. 4 Hit 'OK' and the Atom should restart with numloc...

G'day s243a, Thanks for the interest in my laptop's sudden WiFi weirdness. I've run your netstat script in several Pups, some not working to see or log on to my router, others are good with wifi as before this problem arose. The presence of the tunl0 does not seem to determine if the computer can se...

G'day, I'm suddenly having wifi connection problems with many Puppies on a Samsung laptop. It has built-in wifi (=wlan0). Windows7 has had no problem connecting (came with the laptop). Using wlan0 had been fine for all Pups (32 & 64 bit) for years, but for the last week or so, I'm seeing erratic...

G'day Mike, No longer being a worker with a desk (or 'team'), I was curious to know what all the fuss about 'Teamviewer' (and so 'AnyDesk') is. Starting today in an SCPup32, I downloaded your two 32-bit files. When I found which one looked like it could run, I copied it to my data partition's 32bit-...

G'day Peter, You can also change or select some default applications via the right-click Menu. In the Setup menu, click Default Applications Chooser which will offer a window having a range of application types with installed programs likely to do the job in drop-down lists. I hope Deadbeef is in th...

G'day, I have a MultiPup USB with about half a dozen Pups (32-bit and 64-bit). Running a Puppy or several from this USB, where should the WinePortable directory go? I'd like to access the Portable Wine from each Pup on the CD. I have a Portable Wine set up with installed Windows programs on my deskt...

G'day Mike W. Thanks for replying. Your earlier post with the .pet enabled me to find my actual problem with some portables disappearing when trying a download. As normal, it was me :oops: :roll: . For my first Portable, I'd set up (absolute) links to the Opera files on my data partition.... then ab...

G'day Mike & Fred, Thanks for offering the fix for my Guardian crossword addiction. Still being an Ignoscenti, does this .pet fix the Pup or the Portable? I suspect it's the Pup, so each 64bit Pup on my computers needs this :shock: ? Could I make an sfs from the .pet and combine this sfs with my...
