Sylpheed is offered as a menu item in both "Internet" and "Network". Is the Network entry normal?

You know, sometimes the small problems get overlooked trying to solve the big problem.

Rox running slowly.

I got it. 01micko explains in Shinobar's Wary thread. It comes from renaming /etc/hosts and not /etc/hostname, or vice versa.

Dude, you're the greatest. This one I can fix in the pet (not in the distro)--that makes it easy! Using Iron 10 now--it *is* fassssst.

I was able to get Sylpheed too cowboy. That minute and a half has got to be a good clue for someone on the sound. Firewallstate comes up slowly--it could be blocking. delayedrun could take a while to finish--those are just wild guesses. We probably couldn't change anything now though unless it was a slam dunk (famous last words Wink Is your 521RC a fresh install?

BTW, Has anyone tried Iron 10 with videos? It is large because it contains its own video codecs!

Found something unusual about my wifi connection dropping
after 15+ minutes of inactivity.

It's only happening on this Dell 700m; Luci-Lupu wifi are stable on
the PowerSpec pc.

Still not a problem on the laptop with rcrsn51 "stay connected" .pet.

Should we add that to the distro so that it would be there for anyone who had problems.? I am thinking, Yes. But I am lazy, can someone provide the link? Thanks.

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=63004

Go to your /root/Startup folder and make a script called stay-connected. Add these lines
Code:
#!/bin/sh
while [ 1 ]; do
ping -c 1 8.8.8.8
sleep 30
done


Possible to change sleep30...

This installs stay-connected and makes a menu item under Internet. I did not want it to run unless the user wanted to start it. That's one thing about Puppy, running as little overhead as possible. Was it Lucid 5.2 we were able to remove hald (hal daemon) and then found immediately that we had to include the libhal (but still not the daemon). That's why we are small and fast yet still full-featured! Wink

When you click it in the menu, it works. It guess it needs a splash so people know.

Edit: No, I will put it in PPM under Internet--if people install it will run. If they don't want it they can uninstall.

On PUP522, QuickPET>More PETs>Update PPM. when it completes, it instructs to reboot. Since I'm on a LiveCD, Is this a one-time occurrance or will I be required to REBOOT each time this is invoked?

Thanks in advance

With live cd (or usb) you have to make a save file somewhere or
it's starting from fresh each time.

You know laptops are always trying to save power. Could a bios setting be causing this?
