For Skype sfs to work, do we need devx or kernel source or 32bit compatibility sfs?

Dear peebee, From the download page, the link "Download the LxPupSc64 DEVX from SourceForge" seems broken. It says, devx...+2.sfs is not found. Would you kindly have a look at it? These two also broken: Download the LxPupSc64 Kernel Headers from SourceForge Download the LxPupSc64 32-bit-co...

Ahhh... Now I see where was the problem. When we want to create a URL inside a post, we should make sure that link shouldn't have a trailing slash.

I am interested for general solution to this kind of old version addon finding problem rather than anything in particular.

Hi, To find addons for my Seamonkey verson, I goto Tools->Addons Manager. There I search for required addons. I noticed, when I use a new version of Seamonkey, my search shows me some addons which are not shown when I use a older version. Seems like addons get updated and if not compatible to old ve...

Puppy linux uses unionfs to mount sfs files layer wise. Topmost layer is savefile layer which is writable. That mea...

Kindly help.

This is because the first time a container writes to any file, the file has to be located and copied into the co...

I tried installing ddd and libmotif from the package manager.
ddd starts but I can't work with it. Am I missing something? It always says gdb is not ready!

Also it complains xfontsel not found to change font of ddd.
Any way out?
