Does Frostwire work? Do you have Java installed? I installed it in Dingo with no problems.

The dependancies are included in the pet but the installer often still lists them. Not to worry.

Install java first then frostwire, both work with puppy 3 and 4. Smile

I installed Frostwire from this thread. Wolf Pup's frostwire-4.17.0.pet link.

Worked well for about 10 minutes... then I made the mistake of closing it lol, and tried to open it today. It didn't work.

It freezes up,I can't type anything in the search boxes to find files and won't close. I have to kill it to make it close.

I have java installed... so I know its not that...

What am I doing wrong, maybe my pc just can't handle it?

Its Acer Laptop with 256MB RAM and 40Gig HD, Puppy 4.0, EzPup, Icewm... don't know what else to let you know.

I did a search but didn't find anything about my problem.

blacktulipgirl,

I don't know if this is the cause of your disappearing space, but Mu did post a thread, here, where he reported that the latest firefox was eating up space.

Also, if your running from a pup_save.2fs file, it's sometimes useful to create a default download directory in /mnt/home, and also symlink /root/.mozilla to /mnt/home, so that a lot of stuff isn't saved within the pup_save.2fs file.

If you want you can install my Firefox+flash+Java all-in-one package, Its based on series 2 which was stable and auto-updates to 2.16 . when it ask you to update to 3.0.1 just click never:)

ps uninstall your other Java and Firefox first.

I have Java 6 Update 11 installed but when I installed Frostwire I am told I am missing library file "libgnome-2.so.0" for "/usr/lib/frostwire/libjdic.so"
