you should be able to use any file manager to click-to-install, if you can set up a File Association/Set Run Action for a certain file extensionNasty Rox - it is good, because you can click on a dotpup to install it
kde-3.5.0 puppy iso downloads
Thanks GuestToo.
But Rox has some other advantages, too, for example the picture-thumbnails.
So I will use both, xfe and rox.
They are a good team
*gosh* this KDE is so damn fast... just activated shadows... and still new konqueror-windows just popup without delay...
It's faster than fluxbox on my machine
Add this to /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
Then in KDE-ControlCenter:
Desktop- Window behaviour - Translucency - activate.
Windows are not redrawn correctly then, when you resize them, so in "moving" deactivate "Display content in resizing windows".
so cool that

Well
Well, yeah it's fast. What you expect, lol. Anyhoo. As soon as I can learn how to open these darn vmlinux linux.bin files, I would like for it to not load into ram, kinda like knopper.
I just downloaded puppy 1.0.2 in hoping to see that 2.6 kernel maybe try and use linux live scripts. But that does'nt look to good. So I did have a little luck with the pocketlinux installer once. But the only drawback was I could'nt get it to install anything only boot up and partition the ole' hard drive. Left stibbs at STX linux a message concerning this. But he is moving towards a live-cd with a efltk graphical instaler. He did mention putting a how-to on the non-live-cd-installer in the online magazine Linux Intern though.
Puppy can be so darn hard sometimes. Another option, which I have yet to fool with. Is to mess around with the install-hd2 script from puppy & see if I can somehow use it to boot into and install-puppy to the chosen partition. With my lack of skill this is sure to be great!!!
And porting the Wizards scripts might be easiest to do out of them all, only now I do I have all the required libs for kde! Which brings everythin g to weigh in at 550mb!!! Now for those with ram they may like the sound of that.

Heaven is on the way, until then let's get the truth out!
When I want to view the source of a webpage in Koqueror, leafpad opens with no file.
I found no setting to change this in KDE.
So I removed the symlink
/usr/X11R6/bin/xedit
and created one to kate:
ln -s /usr/bin/kate /usr/X11R6/bin/xedit
Now it works
I'm still very excited about the good performance *wowowow* ehm.. *woofwoof*

Do you have a Windows-computer?
Did puppy create a file pup001?
If this file was not created:
In Windows, download and extract to C:\
http://noforum.de/dotpups/pup001.zip
It needs 254 MB free space and is needed to store your personal files and configuration.
Then copy usr_cram.fs from the CD to C:\
Then boot puppy from CD.

Not able to install to HDD - What I am doing wrong
Hi I am having another go at trying to get PuppyKDE to hard disk. The hard disk is a small one 3 gig and given over to Puppy entirly.
I copied the seven files from the CD that make up the Puppy I have installed Grub and given grub the same parameters as mentioned by MU above.
When it boots it tells me that the usr_cram_fs file cannot be found as MU says happens on his Windows install. Windows is not on this PC let alone the disk, is it the same problem as MU encounterd and if so will the fix he used for Windows sort this and if so how do I go about applying it as I cannot run the KDE version from the disk.
Any help would be appreciated
Cheers

Hi Mark
thanks for the help. I amended the line as described and I now get a kernel panic VFS Unable to mount root fs on 01:00.
Any ideas thanks
Sam
PS would it not be easier if I were to install a copy of the install to hdd script to my version of KDE puppy, I assume that is the reason it is not working because the script is not there.

Dot Pup not downloading list
Aanother question I am afraid.
I have followed all of the above instructions in the thread to resilve missing libs and the missing Dot Pup downloader, and installed them, when I try and run Dot Pup it has an error downloading the list and uses the old one. I am connected to the net, so any ideas what the problem is.
Also MU reported that to get Kate to work in with web sources a symlink needs to be created, how is that done.

Type in a consolewindow:
cd /usr/X11R6/bin
cp xedit xedit-beaver
ln -s /usr/bin/kate xedit
------------
Dotpupdownloader:
Do you get an error when running
/usr/local/Dotpup-downloader-mu05/start-downloader
from a consolewindow?
hmm.. you might not see relevant errors, as wget runs in xterm...
please try:
cd /usr/local/Dotpup-downloader-mu05
wget -O dotpups1.htm http://www.puppylinux.org/wikka/DotPups
wget -O dotpups0.htm http://www.puppylinux.org/wikka/DotPupsContributions

Re: kde-3.5.0 puppy iso downloads
We can see there is a lot of potential here:
1. We couldn't get ethernet or dialup connections to work.
2. Could Open Office 2.0 and Firefox 1.5 be added?
3. Delete the religious popup.
4. Keep up the good work- there is a need for this!
