ROX Pinboard Editor? Alternative Desktop Icons for 2.15 CE?

Is there an "approved" means of managing desktop icons on the ROX Pinboard which is the Puppy Desktop? I've searched the menu tree and haven't seemed to find one so I resorted to manually editing the ~/Choices/ROX-Filer/PuppyPin file but that is dicey at best; coordinates must be calculate...

Sorry, it was 2.15 CE. I clicked the "mozstart" button adjacent to "defaultbrowser" and browsed to EITHER "/usr/local/firefox" OR "/usr/local/bin" (sorry, I cannot recall for certain which folder I browsed into) and clicked on the "firefox" item foun...

After using Defaults Wizard to change "defaultbrowser" from "mozstart" to "firefox", I cannot start "defaultbrowser" or even rerun Defaults Wizard to change "defaultbrowser" back to "mozstart". Upon investigation, I found "/usr/local/b...

I was able to get the .SFS's "copied" to the Full HD install using a "test" utility being developed by Sunburnt ( http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=17068 ). I understand this is a "work in progress" and has some issues but it did work for me and I underst...

Worked for me as on 2.15 CE.

A few "polishing ideas"...

- some feedback during the copy (I wasn't sure anything was happenning at first)
- kick off "fixmenus" automagically, in case it's needed for the .SFS

Otherwise, fabulous work on such short notice!

Thanks for the link, paulh177. Sadly, if the only way to mount the .SFS files in a full HD install is to have a separate HD partition for each, it doesn't sound like a very viable solution to me; especially since I might want to have 2 or 3 of them. I guess I'll just have to manually install all tho...

Got it working... I had to add the Windows driver using ndiswrapper then add a few lines to rc.local to modprobe ndiswrapper and get a DHCP address during bootup. It's all good. Thanks!

WiFi for 2.15CE "Viz"?

Will the wifi-beta.pup which works in 2.13 also work in 2.15 CE "Viz"? If not, is there a new procedure for getting WiFi operational in 2.15 CE?

WhoDo,

The instructions to place .SFS files into "/" on Full HD installs does not seem to work. Any other ideas?

BUT, how do you get the .SFS files to work on a Full HD install?

I tried putting the .SFS files into "/" (as mentioned in JoeD's post) but that doesn't seem to work. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated...
