1. Can gtk2desklet do the transparent in vbox when i use scrollable="true"? how? When you set scrollable=true, gtk creates a new X window for the contents of the vbox. This foils the transparency and I cannot think of any workaround. 2. Can gtk2desklet do the blur transparent? so it's lik...

Code: Select all

find "$dirname" -name "*.$extension" -print |
while read file; do
    rm "$file"
done
Does this work?

Strange CPU usage

CPU usage is around 70%.

But no program is consuming that amount of CPU resources.

What does this mean? I am using slacko 5.5.

Re: freedom of desktop choice

That's why we need a hook into the official puppy release to link to whatever desktop we need instead of having a desktop built-in in puppy. There is no need to change the jwm/rox desktop that Barry loves. Keep it but into an SFS. Then we can release alternatives desktop official SFS files dependin...

Why did mounting the partitions under /tmp cause them to disappear when you shut the computer down?

I think all files in /tmp are deleted one by one while shutting down...
