.... 2. In Control Panel-> Desktop-> LxQT-Panel Theme Switcher you can choose another theme, which affects the look of the panel significantly, including the color of the active window background. If you want additional options, there are themes online, such as this: https://store.kde.org/p/1388153...

petracus,
you may want to look at using the ChLuksPwd-0.1.0.pet provided here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=117234.
You could use it for assigning a separate password to 'cloned' pupsave(s), for a number of different users.

Working ok here on HP core2 laptop, running through ISObooter. WiFi connection is easy with Network > Wi-Fi connection. To find out how to adjust the screen brightness was more difficult. I got to use the terminal: 'set-backlight 75 intel_backlight' Both Midori and the TazWeb Browser are working, po...

Understood.
I do not consider it to be a "fault" of ISObooter.
Thanks for the tip about changing the pmedia parameter.

ISObooter

A surprise experience. I have used ISObooter many times, running it from USB flashdrive. I got a surprise today, when I used it to test an iso which I had produced after a remaster. The OS booted ok, but the loaded base sfs was not the one in the iso. What’s more, a fdrv got loaded that was not incl...

@jrb There is a bug in JWM Tray management. Try: JWM Window Manager Settings > Tray management > Iconify or Verbose in Pager > choose to iconify. You will find that it does not work. The bug is in Line 17 of /root/.jwmrc-tray. To fix it, change that line from <TaskList /> to <TaskList maxwidth="...

Firefox in Buster needs libavcodec58 for certain streaming content.
Thanks,
after installing libavcodec-extra58_4.1.4-1~deb10u1_amd64.deb plus some dependencies, streaming from ABC i-View now works.

@nic007,
put this into a file named pupsaveresizenew.txt

Code: Select all

KILOBIG=16384
PUPSAVEFILEX=/racy/racysave.2fs
If you run racy from a subfolder don't place the file there, but instead in / .
(as is, the file DOES assume that racy runs from /racy/ )
It will increase the racysave.2fs by 16MB on re-boot :)
