While Not a "show stopper" I just the other day put Puppy onto an older gal's PC. This person has No [absolutely No] inclination to use the keyboard!! Not at all intuitive to her to use the arrow/enter keys in grub... While I know that this is Highly Unusual... I am wondering what it would take to put "mouse support" in Grub?? Just in case this is Not as Unusual a situation as I believe it to be?? some "stuff" now, Huh?

Grub with mouse support?
Yes dual boot w/ windoze... She actually loves puppy!!! Kept windoze so the kids would go there... and leave her stuff alone... teenagers are the worst IMHE for being spoiled on doze!! I started w/ no default/timeout...The kids just sat there wondering WTF was wrong w/ the pc!! then I put a 10sec timeout to win... she didn't want that to be so fast... trying a 20 sec timeout to win, hope she gets the hang of it!!rcrsn51 wrote:Are you dual-booting her machine? If not, just have GRUB auto-start Puppy.
If she's that inflexible, I can't imagine how she will ever get used to a Linux instead of Windows.

Why don't you make Puppy the default?
Surely the kids will figure out how to use the arrows, then she won't need to bother...
