spup-100 error copying to ntfs

#766 Post by Béèm »

I don't know why I didn't run into this before.
I receive often attachment of e-mail with file names containing accented characters.
My locale is nl_BE and utf ticked.

When saving to a ntfs partition (my data partition) I get a copy error.
When saving to the file system, ext3 or vfat, I don't have the error.
(see pictures)

This is bad.
Will have to try in spup 120, but I assume I will have the same issue.

Is there a cure?
(If spup will become puppy 5.3 I'll have a problem then)

Hopefully it'll work in spup being made for lucid as far as I see.
But for me it masks the underlying problem.
The original stay-connected is here. I'm a little surprised that it has gone from being a quick fix to a standard Puppy wifi repair tool.

Here is my (limited) understanding of the issue. Some wireless routers periodically poll their clients to see if they are still active. Some clients, when idle, won't respond. So the connection is dropped. I don't know if this is a function of the client's wifi adapter driver or WEP/WPA or something else.
As the issue was intermittently (sometimes hours without a problem) I didn't install the stay connected pet yet.
Up to now I had the issue some 10-15 times and in 2 cases even during a download.

I activated stay-connected now and will watch again during a similar period and report back.
Even with the stay-connected active I continue to have the issue.
Mostly I reactivate the connection with dhcpcd eth1 in a terminal.
These last days this doesn't work anymore and I get messages o no carrier detected followed by a time out.
I have to redo the connection setup with the network wizard.

What I did now is install the dhcpcd 5.2.2.
Will see if this cures the issue.
Will report back.

Spup

#769 Post by l2ulinux »

I need everyones help with a problem I am having with Spup-1.00 & 1.20.50. I love to watch internet TV at vettle.com. With Linux you have to download veetle-0.9.17-linux-install.sh and install it as a plugin. I open a terminal in root and type sh veetle-0.9.17-linux-install.sh as the site tell you to. The problem is it should install Veetle Broadcaster Plugin, Veetle TV Core and Veetle TV Player. All it installs is Veetle TV Core.

I have installed it in other version of Puppy and most will let me install all three.
I only have this problem with 4.3.1 and below, Browserlinux based releases and Spup releases.

All help is needed.
