Hi Mark, Thanks for the response, and the link. I sorted this one out. Using the -v option with Gxine I saw the Pango "ugly output" messages referring to the Windows fonts I had installed. I too had the dreaded PangoCairo.pup installed, so I removed it and now everything's fine. Best wishe...

Qemu Puppy Network/Internet Access

Hi,

I'm lovin' this distro.
Could someone please give me more information about how to configure Qemu-Puppy networking to access the internet (via the host machine IP interface). I don't understand the brief comments made in the documentation.

Thanks,
Sarah F.
