I know this has to be a config setting but I can't seem to locate it.

I'm using Tahr pup 6.05. when I click on one of the drive icons on the pinboard it opens amount instead of a rox folder. Works fine on my other computers so it has to be a setting. Please set me straight

I am using Tahr pup 6.0.5. I need to create a few URL shortcuts on the onboard. I can seem to get it to work. I get permission errors. All I do is create the path to Firefox.desktop and then in the pass arguments section I put http://www.mcran.com. I tried no quotes, as well as single and double quo...

Plait? Sounds interesting. Never used a cli program for my music collection. I'll have to check it out.

Thanks bigpup but that's not what I am looking to do.. I just want to change the name from root to randy, and the password woofwoof to something else.

Is it possible and advisable to change the root user and password to something else? I want to use my own user I'd and password instead of the default that comes with puppy Linux.

I'm using Tahr pup 6.0.3.

I used pfind and what I did was select all of the search results and then under the action menu used the copy option to copy them to a directory and then open them in Audacious. This way I can select the files I want to include in my show. Once my show is done I can delete the directory containing t...

I'm trying it now but I am not sure if it supports drag and drop of search results to a directory.

Here is my situation. I have a very large music collection. Over 100,000 songs because I do a radio show and have been collecting LP's and CD's for years. I am using Tahr 6.0.3 and need to search for criteria based on song title. For example, if I want to search my CD directory for songs that contai...

Thanks so much!!! Works great now!

This is what I get when trying to install Audacious in Puppy Tahr 6.0.3. Where can I get the missing dependancy? Other options? I love using Audacious. Installed or Downloaded Packages audacious_3.4.3-1 audacious-plugins_3.4.3-2 audacious-plugins-data_3.4.3-2 Failed to Install or Download, or aborte...

I was just thinking while in my Tahr pup session if Ii can use rsync or one of the backup utilities to keep my save folder backed up in real-time somewhere else.

Does the destination have to be root for this to work?

I discovered something really cool. I put my fstab password files in root so that if I have to copy my Tahr save file to another computer, fstab works beautifully and all my shares mount without any issues. I tried it and it works perfectly!!!

I have my save folder working fine on my other laptop!! This is my save folder. What I did was I booted the Dell 1520 from the Puppy CD into pfix=ram. I then copied the save folder from my usb stick (ext4) to sda2. Copied fine no errors!! When rebooting I chose the save folder in sda2 and here I am....

You're right! All along I thought it was a file. I copied the folder to a usb drive (formatted ext4. I brought it over to my other laptop and copied to the root directory of my HD as root and received an error when it came to some files. The error was unable to copy special files. In this case it wa...

Thanks Mike for the feedback!

The following files are located in my sda3 partition: tahrsave-thinkpad_t60_puppy zdrv_tahr_6.0.2.sfs puppy_tahr_6.0.2.sfs When I reboot puppy as root, do I just copy and paste these files to another location to back them up properly? Can I copy these files to my other laptop so that when I boot wit...

OK. Thanks for the clarification.

Thanks so much!!! So just so I am clear. I would replace this with one of the following methods for label or UUID I pasted below. Also The $ represents a variable that is used for $DRIVE which references DEVICE=? Just so i can understand what i am doing and how it works. */20 * * * * DEVICE=$(blkid ...

At the moment I am successfully using rsync this way: */20 * * * * /usr/bin/rsync -a /mnt/sdg1/lps/ /mnt/delllps/lps/ │ I'd like to replace sdg1 with the UUID or label instead. Is this possible? I'm not sure of the proper syntax. It's a pain when sdg1 isunmounted/remounted with a different name inst...

I am running tahrpup 6.0.3 from CD on my T60 Thinkpad with my save folder located at sda5 /tahrsave-t60. What is the proper way of backing up this folder? Is this all I need to back up? 2. I would like to run sda5 /tahrsave-t60 from sda9 /tahrsave-t60. When I copied the sda5 /tahrsave-t60 to sda9 an...
