If anyone feels up to it could i request an article outlining the general usage of all the x..drvs eg: adrv, zdrv, fdrv etc? What files would one put where - and why? +1 on this. It certainly needs more attention. BTW, great effort @smokey01. A lot of good reads, considering lenghty hiatus in using...

I'm glad you find it useful & I'm sorry for the late response, Pelo.
Cheers!

Hello, Mick and Puppians! Frugal install on HDD, booted with Lilo. Works as advertised. :beer: FWIW Slacko64 6.3.0 also boots w/o problem with different BIOS settings, e.g. 'UEFI/Legacy first' with secure boot off . First boot, PUPMODE=5 PUPSFS=sda4,ext3,/slacko64uefi/puppy_slacko64_6.3.0.6.sfs PUPS...

Thanks for chiming in, SFR.

That's exactly what I've done, after numerous attempts with 'Not spam' button.
Dang thing should know better!
When it comes to displaying adds & stuff, yeah, it learns with lightening speed.
Then again, what if I don(ut)ate?

Cheers!

Greetings, Puppians! I'm chiming in to report HEAVY MAIL SPAMMING BY GMAIL! Gmail servers simply doesn't 'learn' anymore! :twisted: After almost two months of 'teaching' da#n thing and clicking 'Not spam' (via web page), I've had to make custom filter to pass 'john@murga.org' notification messages d...

Thank you, mavrothal.
Gets the job done. (Though vivaldi-beta rants about root user)

Frugal install of Slacko64 (booting with LILO). Woks fine OOTB.

Minor glitch appeared after installing 'rpm2tgz-1.2.2-x86_64-1.txz' from PPM.
Terminal says:
Please advise.
Thanks.

First fruits of CISA 2015, I'd say.

Shame FFTF guys (and others) didn't make it on their quest to prevent
this evil bill becoming a law.
But, it's not over - YET!

Imitation Bill Gates. Hm. Is that like imitation vanilla?

Yup! That's my point. Vanilla imitators are here! Beware!

Nice. Thanks, Mick.
I'll probably try it someday.
At the moment, frugal works just fine. :cheers:

That wasn't hard, huh?

Meanwhile, I found 'libphonon.so 4' is missing.
Lib hunting now, will report later.

EDIT: Working fine after installing phonon libs + gstreamer from PPM.

Hi, folks! Anybody running Slacko64 6.3.0? I can't run 'goldendict64 1.50 RC6' portable. After renaming it to 'goldendict' and moving it to /root/my-applications/bin terminal spits out this: # goldendict Cannot open /root/.thumbnails/normal /35ef3ee1f7639d95945854d76f2e3819.png for writing There's n...

Hello, 01micko & fellow Puppians! Downloaded latest .iso (after Tue Nov 17 00:04:24 UTC 2015) of Slacko64-6.3.0 and booted with Lilo. ( 01micko's How to Lilo thread ) Everything is running strong on my desktop PC. All seems to work OOTB, even Skype version from official repo. Congratulations!!! ...

Woof, woof (CE) !!! Fellow Puppians, Would you belive? What we got here, on this lovely, crowded forum, are celebreties lurking around the bend. (Behold, for they are many!) It's hard to believe but Bill Gates has been demicrosoftized & converted to Puppianity. See it for yourself. Who's your fa...

Hi, 01micko & folks.

Does this HOWTO still applies for installing, e.g. Slacko64 or Fatdog64-701?
Cheers!

Well done, bro!
GTKgetYT works great on Sulu2 (5.2.8.7-June2015).
I guess audio & play scripts will do the trick, too.
Thanks!

Hi, folks. For those interested in using SMplayer & SMtube on older puplets (e.g. updated Sulu2) this version provided by ninotix , works like a charm. No extra libs & things (well, just stripped QT.pet) for Sulu2 (updated version from 6/2015) and Slacko 5.7 (one with non-pae kernel - QT fro...

Hi, folks. After a month of use of nvidia proprietary drivers for Slacko 5.7 provided by CatDude (thanks again, mate!), nouveau rears it's head again! Does this make any sense? :? Is it something related to kernel source .sfs being loaded or something else? Terminal output of 'glxinfo' looks fine, b...

Thanks for the tip, darkcity. Yes, symlink in ~/.mozilla/plugins/ was broken. One might want to check Java Control Panel-Temporary Internet Files . For some reason, Java wants to use ALL of your disk space for storing temp files by default. I gave it 100MB, should be enough. :D Also, unchecked TLS.1...

Hi, corvus.

Here, read this post carefully and follow mavrothal's instructions.

Keep an eye on kernel versions - modern (with PAE ability) and retro
(non PAE).
You can post your question there eventually.
Cheers!
