FYI - I have an Acer Aspire One ZG5 running Puppy 5.5, earlier than the D250, I loaded the PET and while it did not see the card reader initially, it did after a reboot.

Many thanks, dawnsboy.

CUPS did not detect the networked printer. I chose setup pf an LPD printer. I put the address in manually, and pointed it to the PPD file created by the debbi utility. Quite a few misses with installed non-existent printers until I got the correct address. BTW, I set up a second install and didn't p...

Just wanted to post some info on this, which may help others, The setup was pretty simple in the end, but it took a half day to figure out, The Dlink DPR1260 is 4 port print server that can run off ethernet or Wifi. It's no longer sold, but I think it's a nice box. I have a Brother DCP-7040 hooked u...

I have resorted to a SDHC card + USB adapter. A small class 10 SDHC card absolutely flies. The card should never be written to after the operating system is connected to the internet. I like the fact that if the running form does get penetrated the next reboot is clean. .... Am I paranoid or what :...

The settings manager also enables you to deactivate Flash's ability to turn on your webcam and microphone . They are watching: be afraid, be very afraid ... Heh. I wish I could activate my laptops webcam under puppy but have been unable to ID the right drivers, so I doubt that a robot script could ...

Your password comes in the mail, and you change it right away.

If you got pics and stuff on the old drives, get a $20 USB enclosure and mount the drive. Then read it with another machine and save off what you need. Caution. Don't use a windows PC. Boot up Puppy or Linux or use a MAC. If the drive has an autorun.inf virus, it will jump right onto your good windo...

If you don't save the session the first time, then it will keep asking you in subsequent sessions and you can say "no". Another way to do it is to buy one of them real cheap SD USB card readers that look like USB sticks except you have to put an SD card in it. Puppy will write to the stick...

Just a guess. Wireless cards and routers can use both the older B and the newer (faster?) G protocols. Maybe the puppy driver is only activating the card in one mode and your router is in the other? See if your router is broadcasting in both modes.

I made the following changes in the file - but there has been no changes in the font size of Firefox. Was there too. Nothing happened, which is why I copied the userChrome file out from Seamonkey. Then things happened, so there must be a "*" or other missiing in the example. When you firs...

I've tried it both ways, downloading the packages/codecs and doing it from the install console with the preselected packages. I get two windows upon starting mplayer, but the system is hung. Mouse trail is all that happens. Searched and found this is an old bug reported a year ago on 4.2 with no res...

I've run Puppy release 2 on a Compaq 1230, which only had 96 MB of RAM and it seemed to work fine as a browser with a LAN connection. Ran faster than windows 98SE anyway. I could never get the wireless card to run though, but Puppy found all the other drivers including the LAN card. I am running rel...

You are right, MikeB. Px and PT work and give different sizes, and I was mistakenly omitting the second * before the first curly bracket. Here's my CSS file now. Is a closing curly brace is needed? Works w/o it. /* * Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning */ @name...

* Some possible accessibility enhancements: */ * Make all the default font sizes 20 pt: * { font-size: 14pt !important } I saw the above suggestion on another site on how to make Mozilla work better with firefox, but I couldn't get it to work at all. Then I looked at the SeaMonkey css file which is...

I went back to 4.3 and used Dougals PupRemaster script to get my remaster.

Two things needed for 4.3 if you use it.

ReMaster solved.

FYI - Believe I figured out how to use Panzerkopf's file. I made another remaster, this time using the modded rc.sysinit file. I no longer get the two error messages, but the two files were still left unzipped. New error message about /sys not being mounted. The new rc.sysinit was there though after...

Thanks, Panzerkopf.

So how do I use that rc.sysint download you posted in that other thread? I uncompress it and stick it somewhere in the pup-431.sfs before it gets iso'ed?

I remastered a 4.3.1 boot CD with the specific options for my desktop and had no problems. I've also remastered 4.11 w/o problems for it and another desktop. Now I have tried this several times on my laptop, and I get CD's that will boot and load the pup-save file properly from HD or USB pen drive. ...

I think I hosed up my saved laptop settings trying to to update the wizard, so I plan to start over and try again with the new driver and mod probe command. But first I want to get that silly card running without any encryption ... as soon as I can find some cables and stuff to add my old non-WPA ro...

Thank you for the explanations. I appreciate the replies and apologize for the time it has taken to get back. I have not installed to HD yet. My small accomplishment to date was remastering a CD with the LAN, sound, and video settings plus firefox and bookmarks. With summer waning, it's time to be o...
