Hi do you have other puppy versions installed? did you boot up with puppy pfix=ram, has anyone else tries that site? I clicked on almost every link and it ran perfect, no crashes what so ever.oligin10 wrote:Hi Ttuuxxx, haven't really been keeping up on Classic Pup due to wireless compatability issues. But, did do a quick test this afternoon. Using Firefox, went to http://www.insideline.com and experienced crash of Classic Pup while running in livemode. Tried going to same site after startx and it duplicates problem. Thanks, Rob
P.S. Thanks for including IX Quick. I've been using it for a while on my work computer, which runs Windows XP. If you are running Windows, using Comodo Dragon browser with IX Quick is probably the best combo.
Yes I could add that since its so, so small but has anyone made a gui for it yet? command line apps without gui's are a bit of a pain for most users.nubc wrote:suggestion: Wipe secure data destruction

When I boot TOP9, there are only a few modules loaded (as compared with TOP8, which I'm using at the moment).sheldonisaac wrote:sorry, ttuuxx, I lost my reply while going between windows.ttuuxxx wrote:which opera package did you try, I really didn't change anything that should effect Opera between Top8 and Top9.sheldonisaac wrote: Thanks much.
Couldn't get opera 11.01 working.
Have gone back to TOP8

Thanks

Many thanks
Hmmm Well I made top9 while running top8 and I haven't tried top9 yet, how disturbing because that's the same module I use, So I guess its time to test top9, usually I don't have to test before releasing, but this time its a definitesheldonisaac wrote: When I boot TOP9, there are only a few modules loaded (as compared with TOP8, which I'm using at the moment).
The "missing" modules include
8139too; so I can't access the network adapter.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks again,

and the second one is changed with the .desktop file. I Just checked and 8139too loads perfectly, did you check the md5sum of the iso image, also check if your cdrw/cd etc what every your using isn't scratched.sheldonisaac wrote: When I boot TOP9, there are only a few modules loaded (as compared with TOP8, which I'm using at the moment).

That opera package you posted the link, they renamed the pet without rebuilding pet.specs file, that will give you an error everytime, there is a extra _1 on the end of the name that needs to be deleted if that is removed the pet will install and give a few missing deps, but it runs fine the missing deps are just for kde and gstreamer which no base puppy has by default.oligin10 wrote:Hi Ttuuxxx, I only run testing on that machine with no save file. It is only machine I ever had that happen on, and it is only when running live with Classic Pup. I normally use Opera, and I use that site to test streaming video. I will boot it up in next day or two and verify it is still happening, and if it is, I will install Opera 11.11 and see if it occurs on it also. Thanks, Rob

/ MHHPSubstituting 'libflashplayer.so' from Wary to Classic Pup did not fix the issue. I did the substitution in usr/lib/mozilla/plugins directory, renaming the old flashplayer.nubc wrote:

I would say that is because 2.14X uses one the latest flashes and usually Barry uses an older version, If you swapped flash versions from wary to 2.14x I bet it would fix your issue, The reason I use newer flash versions is because certain flash apps demands the latest version, facebook games is one.
I already fixed that in top9 the latest release.nubc wrote:There is a spelling error in the "214X Log Out Screen". The word "Switch to Joe's Window Manager" is misspelled as "Swith".
