Android is, according to the Android fora, a Debian derivative. I caught onto that by trying to tether my droid to a windows lappie in order to upload a pup iso, attackpup to be precise. Needs root privileges. Android's publisher now makes things deliciously damnably difficult to root the devices. B...

I've got the device, actually a belkin easy transfer basically the same device and (i think) same chipsets. so I did modprobe -a usbnet cdc-subset which is the two modules needed for fundamentally linking your usb0 to eth0 thus having all the properties of pppoe errr "bridging" I mean. Usi...

Yeah, that's windoze for you. The 'nux apps, according to the one howto http://www.linux-usb.org/usbnet/ page I've got saved on my puter and have been scouring for clews as to what the hell I'm doing wrong, mentions using it as an ethernet connection. By use of an alias. And it says that it's gotten...

It's 4 in the morning, my cat wants "his" chair and I need my bed so I'll stop for now.

From the Jungo | Pictbridge site The MTP (Media Transfer Protocol), issued by Microsoft, is a protocol designed for media device connectivity. MTP extends the PTP protocol, to facilitate communication between media devices that have transient connectivity and significant storage capacity. This inclu...

I trust this apply though From the USB FAQ on USB.org: "You mean I can't make a direct cable connection like a null modem?" "Correct. In fact, if you try this with an illegal A to A USB cable, you'll short the two PCs' power supplies together, possibly destroying one or both machines...

One of the most useful gadgets I ever used under 'doze was a simple USB machine-to-machine file transfer cable with an unknown gizmo at the centre of cable. Prior to that I had used the DOS utility with the specially wired parallel or serial cable. I never split open the gizmo wrapper to find what ...

I mean, "theoretically" which "usually" doesn't readily translate to "practically" two such smart devices hooked teeny-little usb | A-Male to A-Female | A-Female adapters like the one in the picture (I bought two of them off Amazon and the postage was more than the pric...

one interesting use I've thought of, don't know if it's feasible but say, two smartphones connected via an Xover USB? They're designed two actual computers, the ones I've got are two Belkin Easy Transfer which sounds more and more like the "Triple Lie" naming standard, like "Meals Rea...

Had to change my keyboard back, even on a persistent save-file boot attackpup keeps reverting to the QWERTY Hand-breaker layout. Anyway, just a suggestion, I've noticed in my rare interactions with police in their own nests, they all use Windows on their networks, and in the late evenings and on wee...

Just In...can anyone verify? Anonymous #OpMegaUpload Attacks Justice Department, MPAA, RIAA http://www.fastcompany.com/1809775/anonymous-opmegaupload-attacks-justice-department-mpaa-riaa It would be backward grammar to say "It couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of people" because they do th...

So I've got this program installed in two formats, one the linux binary WordFlashReader and the other the python source for it, Dictator 1.9.7 both of which haven't seen any development for the past four years. It's an RSVP reader Rapid Serial Visual Presenter. The only problem I have using it is th...

Hi starhawk, I didn't mean to undermine your efforts with my cynicism ...I did what you advise myself and strongly support it. If enough people get fed up, eventually people upstairs get uneasy. I was thinking, though, that better than shutting down Wikipedia, what might hurt government officials m...

Wonder if SOPA will apply to people's avatars? On some forum here in Sweden they have famous people as Avatars. If the owner of that picture bark loud I guess the user is in deep trouble. Ooops no it will be the owner of the forum that is in deep shit. All Admins have to block any kind of jpg due t...

Thanks for starting the thread. A lot of organizations and individual persons here in Europe is very upset about it and so am I. The companies behind the Lobby that proposed it gets too much power in their hand. Youtube as we know it today will most likely have to change a lot. and even our forum h...

Yeah, one of the iconic pictures of President Obama from the campaign was deemed "intellectual property" and Associated Press actually sued the campaign. And it was a picture of himself... speaking of, I noticed that the Intellectual Property claims that would be really broadly enforced ha...

Hello TheProphet, You'll find the Karamba theme files in root under .kde/share/apps/karamba/themes/ In the themes folder are a config file and a folder called img Lets say I want to use an icon called wfp.png simply copy it in to the img folder. The default icon size is 32x32 Now I get the impressi...

Civility in civil governance would be nice but it's apparently looked upon as being "weak". As to the rivalry between the Energy and Financial sectors, since the wealth is concentrated into so few hands the greater probability is that the same small group controls both. Bush and Cheney, fo...

Hate to say this, but that box of yours dates from about the era of stone wheels and flint arrowheads. It's not likely that anyone's gonna go through the trouble to make a puppy for something that antique. That said, if you wanna do it, go for it, I wish you luck (really!). But I don't see it happe...

Do we have an Icon Editor for puppy (that hopefully works in Lucid)? That's the other thing I wanted to look at, editing Karamba, I took out K-mess which is the Microsux Nutwerks Messenger (Pidgin is better) and filled its slot with the link to the WordFlashPlayer binary. which has an Icon with the...
