Pizzapup: Some questions
Posted: Mon 28 May 2007, 12:25
Hi everybody, i'm using Pizzapup as the only os on my pc (i had my slim hd broken, doesn't turn on anymore, 80gb lost, all my mp3s gone.....), so i decided to migrate and have only this wonderful distro on the new hd. i've made a frugal install, luckily i saved my pza_save before, so i could find all my settings.....but, on to the questions, very schematic
1. how to have an icon on the tray alerting if there are new mails? (without opening sylpheed); I know there has to be something in jvm that does this, but i don't know how to set it up;
2. i use amule for p2p sharing...maybe this has been already asked, how can i run it as a non-root user, since it alerts on startup that you are running as user and it's unsafe?
3. in windowz i used speefan to monitor cpu and hd temps, since my pc is fanless (a via epia6000), and it's important to monitor them, especially the one of the hd; is there a relatively simple way to do this in puppy? i mean, have a numeric icon on the tray showing the temps?
4. last one (for now......): opening images with qiv is very fast and efficient, but commands like next picture or next 5 pictures don't work..any ideas?
