URL Radio Finder tool: (from our friends over at Ubuntu Linux) http://www.xatworld.com/radio-search/ Thanks for such a fun tool. Recommend adding it to the first post for Pupsters to test and use. So far, every radio station I've tested using http://www.xatworld.com/radio-search/ has worked so far....

Heya Smokey01! Thank you so much for your speedy response. It is appreciated. I will download it immediately and post successes, etc. EDIT #1 : hehehe, the script halts very early on. It looks for a file called /bin/dash . Wondering what the heck "dash" was, I did a search under PupControl...

Heya 01Micko! :) I downloaded get_libreoffice-0.30.pet from this thread because 0.29 is giving me an odd error message lately: [ Failed to download .

Just finished downloading this version of Puppy for a test run.

LXDE is a nice, light desktop. Heavier than JWM, but JWM was never a favorite of mine. Since LxPup caught me since I first tried it, I'll give this release a test run.

Yeah, I goofed up my lxpupsave-testing.4fs save file. When I try to boot from it -- I get a Kernel Panic (no fun!) message. If you're in the same position, you're probably feeling a bit of "panic" yourself. I can't guarantee this will work every time. It depends on how badly damaged your s...

Interestingly, I came across the same Unknown option -R when debugging a script that comes with puppy. The script's name is remasterpup2 found in /usr/sbin I ran it using bash -x remasterpup2 (debugging mode) to see what command used the -R but without any success. Here is the output with roughly 15...

SCROLL TO MESSAGE BOTTOM for info on how to get this working. I thought I'd share what I use as Puppy Linux start-up screens. Here's how it works. Currently starting a Puppy CD gives us the option of pressing F2 for Help or F3 for advanced help. F1 returns us to the splash screen. This is good! I s...

While there may be a system-based way to tell Puppy Linux drives to spin down when not needed, my version doesn't supply this. Manual Method (Install the latest hdparm ) 1. From PupControl: click the Install tab, Add/Remove Programs 2. Search for and install (if not already installed) the latest hdp...

Suggestion:

Change text to:
"Don't buy a new computer;
Download a better one."

Other than that, your website is very nicely done. It has an elegant look and feel with good information.

The ads are not a problem.

was qt installed before vlc? In fact, QT was installed first, then VLC. They have never worked after many tries. Situation: I insert the Lxpup 12.12 disc, boot up (clean boot using puppy pfix=ram). Then download & install QT. Then download & install VLC. Each time I get the same exact error...

PHATSlacko has most of your needs. Just needs Jey's LXpup changes for LXDE and other desktops. yes... and it uses an adrive . It would be a good one to base next lxpup -slacko on.. or you can wait .. :wink: I intend to build a different puplet, minimal, but with adrive possibility. It will be an id...

Yo mates ! It's been a month that I have not answered... The time passes really fast... I'd love you to be involved, provide advice for a possible future release. If you like it, that's great, but do not hesitate please, we share different points of view. I feel I only listen to myself, as if you h...

--Can I do this to the one I am using? Or does this have to be done to a clean install? I think I'd like to try this and have separate saves too. Feel free to follow the same steps on your copy of Puppy Linux. The idea is: 1. Copy the files mentioned in my post to your USB SanDisk stick. The MSG fi...

I installed Lxpup Precise 12.12 to my thumbdrive. However, the USB boot from the thumbdrive didn't give me the CD's start up options. To restore those options to your USB thumbdrive (RAM drive), copy these files from the Lxpup CD to your USB stick: boot.msg help.msg help2.msg logo.16 Then, using lea...
