Instead i need to uninstall the bcm43xx module using modprobe -r bcm43xx, then I can use the networking wizard to use ndiswrapper with the Dell driver. Even though when everything is set right I ...

anyone has a precompiled version of ppmtolss16 handy? I've been playing with creating my own splash screens (I have been modifying using images I found on the Internet to test with, but releases of puppy need to use images that are free of copyrights). http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v387/papascht...

Xfire chat client plugin for gaim
If any of you are gamers, you probably know about Xfire, which only runs on windows. Xfire fire is a chat client (like gaim, icq, ...) that integrates into most recent windows games so that you don't have to leave the game to chat. It also has other features such as allowing you to see what servers ...

I miss perl. I'm a perl freak and it's been hard to give it up on puppy but I have not yet found a good reason to use the megabytes for it. None of the puppy apps require and it, and for scripting we already have ash, gawk and sed, which can be coaxed into acting as replacements for simple perl scri...

Re: are NTFS partitions mounted read only?
don't know pup001 could be writable if /dev/hda1 is in read-only hadn't thought about that. don't know the answer either since I'm not sure how the mounting of pup001 occurs. Of course in my case pup001 is on /dev/sda1 so it wouldn't be an issue to lock the NTFS partition. only workaround is to hid...

does it work for non-root users? To tell the truth I don't know since you always run as root in Puppy. As long as the application can read and write to /root it should work. Then the answer is no. Or if the app has access to /root then it's a security risk (probably mean a user could see and erase ...

are NTFS partitions mounted read only?
not at a puppy machine at the memoent so I can't check. Yesterday I attempted to unzip a wireless drivers .exe file and got all sorts of errors. At first I thought maybe it was becuase the exe wasn't a self extracting archice and that's why unzip was having trouble (even though it listed the content...

new "Choose HD" option
I saw the news for July 4 saying that puppy will have a "choose HD" option at boot. This is great! I was going to try and implement something like that myself because I wanted to be able to force choosing the USB drive even if a suitable hard-drive has been found.
