@Nooby I have been having similar problems to you recently. I was unable to download or install add ons for Seamonkey. But found last night that my own paranoia was partly to blame. What I had to do to get things to work was : Click on "Edit>Preferences" Then expand the "Advanced"...

???????

I thought McDonalds was Hell.

First, I have only been using 4.4 Alpha 1 for a couple of days but so far it looks very good. Secondly, there seems to be a problem with gxine (not sure if it is puppy related or just gxine itself). To get the problem: Save a video file to a directory. I have so far tried mov, wav, mpg, mp4 and flv ...

Double Post Deleted

Also, Puppy mustn't include Flash or anything that is not free. That is bad for Puppy and good for corporations, who find another crowd of unwilling users. Alternatives exist. That's one of the reasons why free software exists at all. First and most important. This is not a dig at anyone, it is a l...

Notorik are you sure it is Ladislav who is deleting your posts. The trend seems to have started when the "Devine Ms Caitlyn" began stomping around there in her :?: Hobnailed Stilletos. I know my post taking her to task for her rant against Puppy got deleted in less than 60 seconds (it was ...

I thought the -j option was for .bz2 files. Or does it now do more than one type of file?

What you say may be correct nooby. It is just that the timing of the original post is a bit suspect. As it came not only on April fools day but also on the last day of the school term here in my state. Although we don't usually get this type of post Trolling the forum until the end of the first week...

Man that was quick

The school holidays did not officially start until 15:30 hrs today and the first post in this thread was made at 14:57 hrs.

Guess either, pl9977 wagged the last day of school, or they are in year 11 or 12 and did not have any lessons today.

Check the pet test for 4.4 thread. I may be wrong but I think there was some mention made of a .pet that will open txz files in that thread. If not there then it must have been one of Technosauras' other threads.

Good luck

Love it! 666feet on my second shot.

The only thing i'm not like about puppy is that you run it as root, i'm not used to that :wink: While Puppy is still not multi-user by default, Pizzasgood created a version of 4.2.1 that had the option to become multi-user. I am not sure about 4.3.1 but I am fairly sure that 4.4 will be using Pizza...

On this forum there is no solved option you can select to close a thread. To mark a thread as solved you need to edit the subject line of the original post in the thread by adding something like: [Solved] [Fixed] [Answered] [Abandoned] etc to mark the status of the thread. The only way that a thread...

Welcome to the Kennels impert.
I think you will find that entry was written by a POM. So you can't really hold the misspelling against him. After all he was only one vowel out in the old list A,E,I,O,U.

It's an old quote but it is still relevant. Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean they are not out to get me !! No, I won't reconsider. I have the same question for folks elsewhere in the world that I have for the ones at home: what makes them important enough that the US government (or anyone else...

8-bit
I did, especially when I read

user@lx2:/# kill
explorer.exe not found. So what do want to kill?

Hi riccardo I have been using a pet I managed to make of wmium (which was one of the programmes available from internode) in puppy 421. This pet will add an entry in the Network section of the Start Menu. (I would have put it in Internet but could not get that to work at the time.) The md5 check sum...

A professional politician is a professionally dishonorable man. In order to get anywhere near high office he has to make so many compromises and submit to so many humiliations that he becomes indistinguishable from a streetwalker. -- Unfortunately I think "Young Master Mencken" got it wro...

Since the divine Ms Caitlyn was still there stomping around in "her" :?: Hobnailed Stilletoes, deleting posts and dribbling misinformation the last time I was there. This does not surprise me in the least. Needless to say I no longer visit Distrowatch as I don't trust the information they ...

I have never actually tried it in wine but I found that when I backed up my install floppies of M$ DOS 6.22 to CD that the CD would actually install DOS for me.
