Thanks for the advice (and rjbrewer); I'll give it a try the next time I'm in Turbo Pup.

Best,

I did try it, and sadly it didn't work.

Not a major issue though because I can still use it (I just need to "hide" any pup_saves that are on my disk and mightn't be compatible) and of course there are many other Pups to choose from.

Hi

After the installation this point is not relevant any more...

Are you really using Xtrem always from CD?

Install frugal, it is faster as to remaster Idea

Bye

I mentioned in an earlier post that I had a Toshiba Satellite on the way. I now have it set up with Turbopup and love TP even more. Modem is a US Robotics 5637 USB model. Initialization string is merely ATZ4 in the 2nd string (which I think is really the first initialization string). ATZ4 enables hardware handshaking. Nothing is in the 3rd string. With rural dial up every advantage must be used if possible.

Seamonkey with 10-15 meg of cache gives me the best speed.

Not a criticism by any means, but why does every version of Puppy have games and a bunch of calculators? Seems to me they should all be available as .PETS.

I have an infrared USB adapter on the way that I hope will let me print on a SiPix pocket printer through WINE. Any suggestions?

One other thought... Is there any plans to sell Turbopup on CD for those who have trouble downloading large files, or so I can send a copy as a gift to a few select people? I promise there will be a link to it on my website.

Thanks guys.

Hm, is it just me or is the downloadlink
ftp://puppyiso:puppyiso456@ftp.servage.net/turbopup_xtreme_v1.iso
broken?

I get
530 Login incorrect
using puppy/linux as suggested.

maybe it needs a fix, if not sorry for the noise ...
cheers emil

Can anyone tell me how to put wbar to sleep cause it keeps unwantedly opening up gimp.

Kill all wbar or vbar no luck. xinitr does not mention bars.

Dont know how to handle htop.

No tweaker.

Hello nancy

When you say wbar
are you in fact referring to the thing on the left in the pic below (taken from the screenshot on page1 of this thread)

If so, then that is actually the JWM Tray, and if you would like to disable it,
open up the following files:

/etc/xdg/templates/_root_.jwmrc
/root/.jwmrc <--- this one is hidden remember

Now scroll down in each and find the line that looks like this:
