Thanks all for the replies. Firstly I have used the Precise version from the get-go. I was using it earlier today. I cannot seem to get the default player to stream internet radio. I get a message something about not having a demuxer...The stream is an AAC 32 stream. I once got it to work during a p...

Solo gave me a link to archive.org Pupeee files...Thanks. So I downloaded vlc tarball. OK, now what?

Well, FL is just rotten to the core, whatever color is in vogue (and they change colors like my x use to change shoes)...weathers not bad, sometimes...I have a lot of folks to help as well :wink: down here on the peninsula (no islands, no mo') the traffic is hittin' Miami style and you speak espanol...

starhawk,

I'm getting smarter and did just that...so far, so good. At times I wish I was in NC...

starhawk,

I am in Key Largo, FL

I believe I messed up the internet with the firewall, but I am now playing with Puppy Slacko and have not managed to mess up anything yet. Internet and mail working and I am streaming tunes from my external sabre DAC...Eureka!

So, if it ain't broke don't fix it...

@starhawk and flash...editing done, thanks.(had to login first...duh)

I managed to mess up my internet (seamonkey) probably with firewall setting or something (precise)...hmmm, this is humbling to the max...back to the fun.

Yes, I am online now til 5:45 eastern when the library (my office) closes.

@solo, thanks... @everyone, I think I found the original problem with my keyboard. I toggled the numlock on :roll: Thanks ardvark! This was with precise...so how do I mark that solved? Seems someone changed the original title...anyway I have a bunch of versions to play with and I'll see you all soon...

Hey All, playing with pupeee now...anyone know what version of vlc is needed? I don't know the basis for puppies/puplets and I can't get the qcine(?) to stream (no demuxer found). Thanks. I will be trying the slacko_5.5_XL soon...

@starhawk, Thanks for the reply. Of course all is forgiven. I remember seeing something about 'numlock' during the setup, and I do not remember what I did, but it sounds like a plan...I don't have my optical drive and cd with me today (took a day off from frustration), so tomorrow I will follow your...

@ardvark. Yes that is my system minus the windoze. I bought mine used with no OS ($100 delivered), put elementary OS Luna and ubuntu 14.04 on, added a gig of RAM and off we went...I am looking for a smaller, faster, less bloated Linux. I am hoping I can figure out the keyboard problem and learn enou...

Well, Flash you are wrong. I have not left and I did come for help. Ubuntu One has closed shop...I'll look for other eeepc puppies. Now can anyone tell me how/why my keyboard got messed up? Or how to fix?

Well, so far so bad...followed download and install...keyboard is wrong...auto setting leaves #5 for I...can't get online, can't play music or stream...very disappointed. Running (or not) precise on asus 1005HAB...also running ubuntu 14.04 and elementary Luna...no probs with other distros. This is n...
