Thanks to Burn_IT and Flash for your replies and information. Based on your experiences, I looked at this from the software(Windows) angle instead of the hardware. I neglected to mention at the start that the PC has Windows10 installed and that was a big part in my problem. Windows 10(and also Windo...

I've used Puppy on many computers but I recently acquired a fairly new HP ProDesk 600 desktop. When I try to boot from CD using Slacko 6.3, the message "Error - Windows NTFS hibernated partition cannot mount" appears when the boot up is searching for Puppy files. Eventually Puppy does boot...

The CamPhoneTab pet works great. Guess that I searched using the wrong terms - the thread you referred me to did not show up in the search. Thanks as always for your expert advice and assistance.

I've searched a few times for topics on attaching and exchanging files with a Samsung tablet but all I found was talk about installing puppy on a tablet. I have various versions of Puppy but mostly use Slacko - 5.7-6.3 etc. When I attach the tablet using the OTG cable in an USB port, it sees the tab...

Thanks once again for your expert assistance! This works exactly as I wanted.

I've been exploring this topic for a while and getting conflicting answers. My situation is that I'm tired of having to play the CD drive shuffle whenever I want to boot from Windows or Puppy Linux. I know that you can boot Puppy from a usb drive but I can't find any way to do the initial save to th...

I use Citrix (something like remote desktop) to connect to the mainframe computer at work. For years I've used the citrixICA-10.6.115659_openmotif-2.3.1-i486.pet I obtained through this forum. There were also a number of posts on how to setup and use Citrix but the most recent is late 2011. I used t...

Hello Micko, This new release, and release 5.4, look fantastic but I'm doomed to stay with 5.3.3 unless you can fix the Citrix web plugin. I connect from home to my office computers using my browser and a tool called Citrix. Its similar to remote desktop and a lot of companies have it to allow peopl...

Thanks again, rcrsn51. I did as you suggested and observed the following differences. In CUPS, the set default options screen which. with the first package, had several selections re color, duplex printing etc was empty except for a box regarding a "tray 3" not installed. I continued addin...

Thank you, rcrsn51. Your knowledge always amazes me. When I read your how to install.... post, I didn't think that the basic printer drivers in the hplip_print-3.12..pet would include this printer with all its features. So I kept looking for something more specific. However after I loaded that hplip...

I've searched this forum on the model# - 2025, gone thru the 14 pages of the printers section, and the 13 pages of How to install printers but I haven't found any info on an HP Color Laserjet CP2025dn. I'm running Slacko 5.3 and the closest I've come is using another model# and CUPS+Gutenprint5.2.7(...

I just tried Slacko 5.4 and I really like it. However I found one problem that is critical for me. I've had a Citrix ICA client (citrixICA-10.6.115659_openmotif-2.3.1-i486.pet) working in Puppy since I was using Lucid 5.2. I got it from one of the threads in this forum (viewtopic.php?t=29&search...

Thank you rcrsn51!! Your solution worked. You certainly have a lot of knowledge about Puppy Linux and, as on past occasions, I'm most grateful for your assistance.

I am using various versions of Puppy - Lucid, Slacko etc depending on which works best with a particular pc. When I use the Slacko Puppy 5.3.1 version on my laptop, I find that pressing the F12 key brings up the main menu. Unfortunately, I use the laptop mainly to communicate with the mainframe at w...

It's an old recording that I had that I've played in several different recorders in Windows with no problem. I use Puppy a lot and wondered if it had a video player - saw Mplayer and decided to try it. It worked great except for the timer. I tried a couple of other newer recordings that were an hour...

I tried searching the forum for mplayer time but coudn't see anything that looked relevant. I also went to the Mplayer development site but I couldn't see anything that matched. I have a two hour recorded video I am playing with Mplayer in PuppyLucid 5.2.5. The timer bar at the bottom of the video s...

I downloaded and installed the Citrix ICA client pet as per the instructions in the previous posts. Everything seemed to go okay. I then got the Puppy dial-out function to dial and connect to the citrix ICA server at work. However, nothing happens even if I start up the SeaMonkey browser. In my case...

Thanks, rcrsn51. I tried the PET file and it worked in PuppyLinux 5.2. I downloaded the file and then just clicked on its icon and it said that it installed properly. Somewhere I read to check the usr/share/cups/model path/folders and I found a Lexmark folder with a X26xx.ppd file. When I ran the CU...

Thanks to rcrsn51 for directing me here. I read through the above posts and downloaded the lexmark-inkjet-08-driver-1.0-1.i386.tar.gz.sh.zip from Lexmark site, unpacked it and tried to run the lexmark-inkjet-08-driver-1.0-1.i386.tar.gz.sh job/script. The processs looked familiar and then I checked b...

To answer disciple, the two printers I tried were a Lexmark X2670 and HP ColorLaserJet CP1215. Lexmark support told me that Linux drivers "could be found on the web". I found some information but it talked about untarring this and installing that and then installing something else - I got ...
