EeePC is a very weak computer. No other linux distro worked on it properly. So I really do not want to install things I do not need.

Youtube works fine. Just the full screen option is not available. I guess I'd better cope with it.

Thanks for help, anyway

I tried to follow installation instructions on SeaMonkey page (which is basically to create new folder and extract tar of the new version there). But new Version of SeaMonkey wouldn't run: # seamonkey XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /usr/lib/seamonkey-2.49/libmozgtk.so: libgtk-3.so.0: cannot open share...

Thanks for the pet link but Seamonkey is not there and other browsers are too heavy for EeePc.

Will try to do uninstall-install

Hello, Just installed Puppy Precise on EeePC . Works perfect. But the Youtube says it needs newer version of the browser for better experience . The browser included in Puppy-Perfect package is Seamonkey-2.19. On Seamonkey webpage there is 2.49 version available. Seamonkey forums say that the browse...

The idea is that regulating computer behavior is (should be) easier than peoples', no? (though in reality it seems to be the opposite?) Especially when you have a small kid (2,5 years) versus OS supported with community of hundreds of its funs. No? I think one of the reasons why the kid keeps pushin...

I know puppy is not designed for kids specifically. But it is still very convenient to setup puppy linux on an old laptop with small HDD and allow a kid to play with it. But the problem is that old laptops are slow. And small kids are not good in waiting. They keep klicking the icon on desktop deman...

I did it, finally : I just had to modify file /root/.config/openbox/menu.xml and its OK.

I just wanted to remove unneeded items from main menu. Done. Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot! I'll try it.

I am afraid I use Openbox. May be I should change to JWM...

Found script of the Battery gauge.. It says: #! /bin/sh if [ -d /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0 ]; then BAT='BAT0'; fi if [ -d /sys/class/power_supply/BAT1 ]; then BAT='BAT1'; fi if [ -d /sys/class/power_supply/BAT2 ]; then BAT='BAT2'; fi STATUS="`cat /sys/class/power_supply/$BAT/status`" CHA...

Thanks. Installed pwidgets. Looking now for the script to modify

I guess I should have explained better: I am setting up an old nettbook for my grandsun (2,5 years old). He usually forgets to shut down the computer (although I put big shutdown icon on desktop). So the netbook is all time switched on, but sometimes power goes off and the battery can only work for ...

In old puppies I remember it was possible to modify the menu and submenus. I can not find such option in GUI of lucid puppy. Is that still possible? Or not any more?

Is it possible in puppy to set poweroff of computer in say 30 minutes when laptop works on batteries? Can not find relevant menu.

Thanks in advance

I usually work with two different layouts. I do this: Select from menu: Setup > Mouse/keyboard wzard > Advanced Xorg keyboard configuration. Then some info screen opens. Click OK. And you have than XKB configuration manager screen. Select "Layouts" to add a new layout. Then "Layout va...

Look, but Bootflash just makes flash bootable and than installs the puppy-linux to it (meaning it puts sfs file on flash and some other stuff).

But I want to install iso file of other distribution, not the puppy, on flash.

How to do that?

I have latest puppy on my computer (full install) and am trying now to create CD-image on USB flash (from SamHamBen iso file). But Unetbootin seems not to work in Puppy? It requested mtools and g7z ackage - I installed both. But now it just can not see any USD disk! I changed several USB flash disck...

Hi, Puppeee is based on Puppy 4.31 which is not meant to be compatible with Ubuntu's repository, although you will get *some* things to work. There was a game version of Puppeee at one stage, you could search for that, and it may have the games you are looking for. A quick search of the forum also ...
