Thanks for all the replies I will have to look into this memory business The reason I wanted R is to use a package (Rpnf)that plots point & figure charts like this http://tinyurl.com/yccgb2gm RPNF has the advantage that it allows log scaling and has a manual! http://rpnf.r-forge.r-project.org/ h...

I've been running Wary 5.5 on a 1ghz P4 with 250mb ram for a few years (os on cd; sfs on hd) I want to install R https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R_%28programming_language%29 https://www.r-project.org/ This looks easy if you have ubuntu! http://www.jason-french.com/blog/2013/03/11/installing-r-in-linux...

I'm using my isp plusnet
Are these the settings?

pop mail server
mail.plus.net

smtp
relay.plus.net

Above the messages there is only one folder- Inbox. Presumably there should be 4?

Hi Had another search & found /root/.mozilla/seamonkey/3o1ptd5r.default/Mail/mail.plus-4.net which contains Drafts, Drafts.msf & Sent, Sent.msf files which seem to have message text So, it would seem that I need to tell seamopnkey toactivate those files ( I've also got several .......mail.pl...

I'm using wary 5.5 & seamonkey 2.6.1
I don't have the above folders
I "saved" a draft and it has "disappeared" - where is it?
I only seem to have an inbox
Surely seamonkey has drafts and sent folders?
Does anyone know how to find these missing folders?

I use lynx to download website text without the html junk lynx -dump "url" | some filters > file I tried "lynx /root/my-applications" command, using it as a file browser Yes! It's surprisingly fast. Much better than using ROX and then Geany. It can open txt files in the lynx wind...

Thanks for the interest
I do indeed have the /usr/etc/lynx.cfg file
I made the change to STARTFILE and lynx behaves as expected!

I have'nt got a etc/lynx directory and Pfind can't find a lynx.cfg file
Using lynx at the console works eg
lynx http://www.mcdep.com/index.htm

Any suggestions?

I installed the 2,8,7 i486 version using the package manager. I then ran the programme and got the above message for 20secs then the window closed
I'm on wary 5.3
How do I get lynx working?

Well well, the line defaultbrowser https://tinyurl.com/yc9uwg6u worked!
Many thanks to all who took an interest
Changing the default browser from Sea monkey to Palemoon is a big improvement - image loads faster
schober

Adding "urxvt.url-launcher: defaultbrowser" didn't change anything This command "xdg-open http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/index.php" works but fails with the url https://tinyurl.com/yc9uwg6u points to Wheras " x-www-browser http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/index.php" d...

Lynx doesn't display images, so isnt suitable
I'm using Palemoon

xdg-open will display a jpg file in a url but that is about all it does (and it goes into Seamonkey)
It wont display images like this https://tinyurl.com/yc9uwg6u

Using this command in the console you can display a url in the current browser (firefox or google)

This works fine on ubuntu - the syntax i use in a bash script is
x-www-browser $url

On puppy however I get "# bash: x-www-browser: command not found"
I'm using Wary 5.3

Any suggestions?

Thanks for replies Not sure what happened this am Clicking (left) on the lower file icons gives the drive contents as you predicted What is the significance of the red cross on the drive icon? How do I find the free space? ROX does not give the size of the directories, only of the files - how do I f...

I cant do this!
ROX doesnt seem to go outside the puppy world and cant see the usb or the rest of the HD
Clicking on the icons at the bottom of the screen doesnt yield any thing useful

I'm using Wary 5.3 on a cd and the save file on HD

How can I see all the files on the hd and the usb

Thanks for replies I'll try watchdog's idea I presume I download palemoon-27.3.0-p4-glibc219tweak.pet and click on it I then need to install dbus and dbus-glib. The latest vesion of dbus is 1.10.8.

I have two P4 2Ghz computers one with 1gb ram and the other 500mb. I use Wary 5 on a cd on both machines and the savefile is stored on the hard drive. Wary comes with an ancient Sea monkey browser that doesnt work with Yahoo mail. Can anyone suggest a modern browser? (prferably easy to install) All ...

So, how do I replace the ancient sea monkey browser that came with Wary for sometning more upto date like midori?
