Many thanks
Been using 013 and now 014 and in both versions
when editing text in the browser (for example in the forum)
the spell checker that underlines my many spelling mishtakes
is not activated? Apart from learning to spell
is there something I need to do
to avoid pemasu having a heart attack?

Lobster. You are right about spell checking. The Firefox I downloaded straight from Mozilla seems to lack dictionaries.
To get spell checking working. Type to any text box like this forum post box more than 2 rows whatever. Right click then the text box, select Languages and you will be redirected to the selection site. Download for example swahili, install it and restart Firefox. There you go.
Hmm, next question where does the dictionary be downloaded so that I could include finnish and gb_english as default. us_english people I will leave out. Lol. Just kidding.
EDIT: /root/.mozilla/firefox/he02dffd.default/extensions/en-GB@dictionaries.addons.mozilla.org
And so we have learned something new which we didnt know before. This is good morning
Good catch Lobster.

Java problem |
|
As I remember, JAVA apps are suppose to run on any platform that has JAVA,
I installed JAVA from Quickset after downloading each, ICE and SNOW. Then I installed 2 apps for network use; namely DPUP5520
's AngryIP and IPmonitor. Neither runs.
But on PUP525, they run OK.
Is thre something special about ICE/SNOW? s there something I'm missing in my logic? These should be running, but they aren't.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

I dont think so. I have run java apps just fine. There is nothing special with Ice Puppy or Snow Puppy regarding java apps.

Indeed the more pets tab from quick pet don't download java ( nor other pet's) and thus don't install them.
Running Snowpup 020.
When I select OpenOffice I get a pop-up saying I have to install puppy first.
Very funny.

Another flawless upgrade from 013 to 014. Everything just works.
Hopefully, someone will prepare some pets for this for the nvidia drivers.
Thanaks,
Jim
