Hiyas... extracted ISO to a directory that grub knows about booting fatdog and cleaned the save directory it references for a fresh startup... # title FatDog 7.10 (4.4.18) ==> (sda2) root (hd0,0) kernel /puppy/fatdog-710/vmlinuz pmedia=atahd pfix=fsck savefile=direct:device:sda2:/puppy/fd64save init...

Greetings, FatDog 710A2 works well OTB, however when using Gslapt to do a full update of the packages: 1) it causes the lxqt-panel (taskbar) to disappear 2) when exiting chrome, chrome processes are still running, leaving the profile in a precarious state switching to JWM (using the update) 1) lxqt-...

Hulu is broken for me too, as of a few days ago, and it is on chrome 44.0 running on DDog Debian Jessie. Also fails on Chrome Beta 45.0. Was running fine, now it gives a 'Protected Content error 3336', and produces the same error on FatDog, Vivid, pupWheezy and Tahr. Mozilla just gives a black, blan...

Hiyas... When I said a 'hack' for VLC to get around the root user problem, I truely meant an old school hack of using a binary editor to manually change a variable reference. It can be googled easily enough but compiler outputs are a moving target and I can't really recommend it to anyone. As for se...

After running DDog Jessie for a week and configuring it for a daily OS, this is what I found: using Synapic to install an app, the JWM loses custom settings which requires that I re-edit my changes which involve font sizes and autohide of the tray. LCD screen brightness changes to high, after a rebo...

Thanks... using: "/mnt/home/bin/chrome/chrome --no-sandbox --user-data-dir=/mnt/home/Data/Chrome/Satori" work well enough, it limps by with the security warning but it's livable. You can see I keep the chrome and user data files outside the os, so that other systems have access to it. This...

Has anyone gotten Chrome 43.0 to work in DDog Jessie? Whenever I try to run chrome 43.0, it fails to start. From the termimal it just sits there with a blinking cursor, even tho it leaves chrome processes running in the background when I kill the terminal. TahrPup runs it with no problems. VividPup ...

Hiyas Switched out the recently installed Jessie-i586 for the new i686-PAE version and my Dell E6510 likes it :) Found 8 cpu cores, and the 4g memory stick. In order to run Chrome, I needed to download the libnss3 and libgconf .debs off the Debian.org site, they installed without any problems and Ch...

Hiyas... I've been keeping an eye on DDog for a long time and used the latest Jessie ISO to create a bootable directory that's managed by grub. OFTB, my Dell E6510's wifi fails to connect and network status shows no valid driver for it. I used the 031-firmware-porteus.squashfs file from the previous...

My usual method of running puppies is to use two partitions, the first contains the grub-boot and associated puppy files while the second contains data and third party programs, which includes the savefile in a separate directory. dpup wheezy's grub section is: title dPup 3.5.2.11 ==> (sda3) root (h...

Hiyas..

boots, connects and runs well on my dell E6510 / i7Q, finds 8 cores.

I'll try to get nvidia going, are the kernel source files the same as the 32bit version?

lol... I guess you've never ran a Second Life viewer/client, a single instance will chew up 2 gigs, and if you want to run multiples... I image other apps, like video editing, can use as much ram as possible. The reason I use a Puppy, is that the resources are used for the applications, and not for ...

it's not PAE...

yep... editing it to 'outline' lets me resize without the openGL app losing cursor focus.

Fatdog64 uses opaique but redraws without losing control.

Hiyas... The JWM settings has no effect on the windows behaviour, in fact, the settings themselves don't take as it always revert back to 'outline' setting. The way the windows behaves suggests it's neither 'outline' or 'opaique', as the window is dynamicly being redrawn as the frame is being resize...

Hiyas... been giving the pup a try to see if it can replace my dpup, All the apps I use, work (including XBMC), but whenever I try to resize a window running an openGL app (Second Life), the window immediately redraws and loses focus of the mouse cursor, meaning that you can't resize the window. Beh...

Wow! Quck turnaround...

installed files and edited grub to boot porteus...
boot shows cpufreq starting on 8 cores, htop shows 8 cpus and 4G (installed mem)

looks real NICE!

thanks! Doggie's got a new chew toy

Hiyas... my mistake... "hwclock -s" sets the system time from the clock, "hwclock -r" reads the hardware clock. tried running debiandog with updated NTP (says it's at current version), without NTP and reinstalling NTP... all have no effect on changing UTC to LOCAL. if a DebianDog...

the recommended hwclock procedures fail on DebianDog Wheezy/Porteus boot. adjfile's LOCAL always changes to UTC, and hwclock --localtime has no effect. however, it does work on DebianDog Jessie. It shows and keeps as LOCAL in the adjtime file. I have noticed that dpup shows hwclock -s in local time,...

hmmmm....

that may be the solution, however it seems that after editing adjtime, the next reboot will
regen the file with UTC in it.

happens on both savefile and in change folder usage.
