Re: Elementary OS on PUPPYLINUX would be the real killer
I love Elementary OS,.. The only reason is: My employees loves it, it's much easyer to use than Windows 8.1, or even Windows 10 and even OSX, I am happy, because my employees don't spend any time anymore on system administration (20 % of their time), virus checkers, optimizers, try all kind of appl...

Elementary OS on PUPPYLINUX would be the real killer
I love Elementary OS, Not because of the amount of applications in the distro, I would even prefer to only package the OS with system settings "under the hood" and a easy to use package manager, such like SFS packages in puppylinux. Not because of the great performance, because using UBUNT...

This version of Seamonkey 2 works fine on all versions of Stardust every time. I install it as soon as I run Stardust. It is compiled for 4.3.1 which Stardust is based on and needs no dependencies. Thanks a lot, I will try it out today.... one good working browser is in my opinion enough, whatever ...

Browser
Stardust is still the most stable linux for me, it would be great when the browser could be updated to a version with better support for applications as Facebook, Gmail, Yahoo and some other sites I use a SaaS applications. Would be nice when we are able install plus-in's. The speed is fantastic, th...

Hi Try moving the gooo432.sfs to mnt/home then the next time you boot it should ask you if you want it to load at boot up. Thats what I did, when I reboot the system I got the question to install, thats what I did, rebooted again, but can't find OpenOffice, not in the menu, not on the desktop, and e...

Solved
Thanks a lot, pfix=ram Your telling it to load strait into ram without loading any .sfs that includes the pup save file. I just followed the installation instruction: BE AWARE!!!! If you have Puppy installed, you MUST run this with the prefix 'puppy pfix=ram'. Else, the Stardust desktop will not ins...

pupsave.2fs not loading
Some user questions Startdust 007 was the only puppy worked out of the box on Compaq cq020 and hpmini... great... but it doesn't load the saved pupsave.2fs after reboot. Means that documents are lost. When I open the USB drive it shows the file in the correct size. I created the USB using unetbootin...

I don't think the problem is necessarily lack of organization. Too much organization leads to bureaucracy and bloatware. We're just a little understaffed. Organisation could be a website for users of Netbooks, in my opinion users searching a website to find a PUPEEE, there you could create a simple...

As far as an installer for USB goes, how about just using Unetbootin? I understand that Ubuntu needs to have an installer to run persistantly from a flash drive, but that's built in to Puppy. Load it to the flash drive, run it, then save as you shut down. I use mostly Unetboot, a perfect solution, ...

I'm not a developer myself. But I don't agree with you on the idea of a simpler user interface. I've tried out Moblin and UNR and rejected them pretty quickly because that kind of simple interface is a bit of a straightjacket. It's a lot more difficult to add programs to UNR other than programs mad...

Hi there, This is written from a developer perspective. :) There's not much in the way of organization here. There is no corporation behind us like Moblin and Ubuntu have. I am willing to modify Puppeee (which already has the features you want) to have drivers for other netbooks. But I would need h...

Derivatives quality and qualification
I am writing this from a user perspective!! In my opinion PUPPYLINUX is still the best distro because it has the added value that it runs fully functional in memory from a flashdisk or memory-card and it support hardware for 90% out of the box. I still regret that Puppy Linux is too much focused on...

Sorry, but that page seems to have disappeared [?] Ah no, your link is different to mine! try Unetbootin homepage, here http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ The fact you get a choice to boot shows you have the startup working, but it obviously isn't finding the puppy files [iso?] see also, here http:...

Curious how was/is windows installed without a CD? mike That's a good one, after 5 years using a pc on a location the CD is the first thing whats broken and full of viruses.

Unfortunately the most systems using windows, we can't change that, I would like to get people on Linux using a very easy way, everyone can c...
