There are four files for Midori 0.3.2 to run correctly in Fluppy 013.

They are now located at:
[url]
http://kd4e.com/files/midori/[/url]

Can someone let Smokey know so that he may copy them to his Fluppy 013 repository?

I am not sure how long they will remain available where I have placed them.

I just bought an old IBM M52 Thinkcentre computer
and I discovered that it has an Intel integrated graphics chip.

I found it very difficult to boot up with Puppy.

I found an old CD with Puppy3 would boot it
and the most recent version of Racy 5.2.2 would at least boot
it from the CD, but I found lots of buggy behaviour.

So far the best Puppies that I have found to use with
this computer are Lighthouse 5.03 and Fluppy012
(but NOT Fluppy013 !!! which wouldn't boot at all)

Fortunately Fluppy012 is still available

No answer in the Pwidgets thread....can anyone shed some light on this?

When I install pwidgets in Fluppy13 I can not access the program from the icon in the desktop area. Entering pwidgets from the command line gives me:

/usr/local/pwidgets/pwidgets: line 26: type: gtkdialog4: not found
/usr/local/pwidgets/pwidgets: line 209: gtkdialog: command not found

When I remove pwidigts 2.40 I see this:

pwidgits 2.38

Thanks

Fluppy has gtkdialog3, not gtkdialog4

I haven't tested gtkdialog4 myself,
but there is a thread by Barry Kauler to install
gtkdialog4. ... but that probably won't be enough to install pwidgets Crying or Very sad

.

If you need a fancy clock, you should read the following thread
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?search_id=811289246&t=73441
_____________________________________________________

I made a crude transparent floating clock but it only works with some
window managers. For instance with JWM it's not transparent.
Instructions: You must set it by right clicking it
and floating it above the other windows.
If there isn't a menu entry then type 'oclock' in console.

Sorry to bring this back up (I know it's an old thread) but how does one enable the desktop interface in screen2.jpg of the original post? The one with what appears to be a tab-bar interface on the left side of the screen?

That looks really cool and I have an idea for that...

I think that's Favourites?

Favorites

I'm confused.

Starhawk

screen2 on p1 which you asked about shows Fluppy menu, with Favourites folder open, I believe...what are you confused about?

Have you tried Fluppy?

Jemimah, the developer created a favourites file similar to that other OS's favourites folder, OK?
