If your using JWM as your window manager and the rox pinboard, then just navigate to /usr/share/applications and find the program in there and drag it to the desktop(pinboard) then you may want to edit the name of the icon and even choose another image for it, by right clicking on it and choosing ed...

to copy files in rox, open two rox windows, and simply drag the file from one window to the other, a small menu will drop down asking if you want to copy, move or link the file or files you have selected. To mount you usb stick click on the icon for it on the desktop and it will open in a rox window...

Here's the way I would go about this, 1. Download the puppy iso of your choice, I'd recommend 5.28 for your netbook. 2.Save the iso to your thumb drive. 3 On another computer, burn the iso to CD, and then boot that computer from the iso you just burned. 4. Do a usb install from the puppy universal i...

Hello, the forum search is a very handy item, try searching for rwall, a small script written by forum member Bruce B, it works fine for me in the 5.25 and 5.28.

Have you seen this thread http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?search_id=622524320&t=60678 I tried it out in wary5 and it worked great, maybe you could boot into your live session, then install this pet and create a pup save file, then boot a not multisession live cd and do a frugal in...

I just did a frugal install to my gecko surfboard and everything works, sound, good video with dri support, I don't have the built in wireless but tethering to my gprs phone works well. This is great for surfboard owners.

If your using the default JWM, then use the filer and open the root directory, click the eye at the top to show hidden files, then find the .jwmrc-tray file and right click on it and choose open as text, at the very bottom you should see a line like <Clock format="%H%M%S ">minixcal</Clock>...

There is a windows version, but I use the native linux version, available as .tgz just extract it to any drive, including a usb stick and it has all the needed files to run.

Peazip portable does all that, its about 21 mb extracted, but can be run from a portable device, usb stick, etc.

The simplest way would be to create multiple frugal installs, so basically each child would have his or her own system, then you modify each pup_save2.fs by removing the programs and functions that you don't want that child to have, another advantage of this system is that you can make a backup copy...

Right click on any icon on the desktop, choose Rox-Filer, then choose options, then pinboard, at the bottom of the window under pinboard behavior is a check box that says single click to open, uncheck it, then choose OK and you'll have a double click desktop.

Hey Tux, no problem on the time thing, I've been busy as well, it's interesting that you get so many missing files, I've run this pet many times on many machines with at least 256 megs of ram, by just installing it from the live cd, that is I boot with the pfix=ram paramater and then install cdrdao ...

Hey Nitehawk, I live in a verrrry rural area, the nearest TV station to me is about 50 to 60 miles away, and I get 28 channels with my converter box, but I am using a ratty old outside antenna that has been blown down a dozen times and looks like spagetti, but it does work, sometimes I get corrupted...

Tux, thanks to you to, you''ve done a great deal for this community and I use a lot of your .pets, latest is ice lite, thats great, I too get a huge long list of missing dependencies f...

I've put together a couple of .pets of k3b 1.0.4 with all the dependencies to run in puppy 3 and 4, both are about 15 mbs to download and expand to about 30-35 megs on your system, for puppy 3 you need to have qt 3.3.8 or better installed and for both you need to install cdrdao, I've tested it in a ...

You can use Dougals remaster script to put the devx files into your .sfs, create a working dev pup save file, then use Dougals script that allows you to choose between a simple and a smart remaster, choose the simple option and it will create a new .sfs file with your complete system including the d...

You could try installing Streamtuner, from MU's PSI(Puppy Software Installer), works fine for me with XMMS.

Hello Geo, at the first screen, the one full of text with all the boot options, type

Puppy pfix=ram

that will cause puppy to boot without checking for pup save files.
you only have 5 seconds in which to do this.
