msttcorefonts

Hi there, just to share an experience (sorry if it is not the correct place) I have tried to install msttcorefonts using the Puppy Package Manager.

I there! Great work on Puppy Tahr! :-) I have Frugal installed on sda1, and I placed the save file (folder type this time instead of .sf4) on sda3. But, on boot, the system won't reach the save file, perhaps because it is in a different partition? Is there a way to solve this issue? Or do I really n...

Hi Sunny, Thanks a lot for your tips! :D By now I will continue solely on CPU because doing what you told me may require some more time :) but I will definitively look for it.
