This had been about the Help in LxPup. Peebee has a better fix on p.16. Here is still the Firefox 28 for anyone who wants it.

I am having trouble getting Crossover to run on Puppy I ran Crossover routinely on lucid--not suggesting you use lucid but that it should be possible. That was my pet of integer.pm. Yes, the devx needs to be installed. Doesn't Slacko 5.7 have python-gtk in the Puppy Package Manager? What happens if...

IMHO, Pmusic is an extraordinary achievement. It has been a treat to watch it develop over the years. The only problem I ever had with it is that because it is written with scripts instead of compiled it cannot (or could not) handle very large music collections (mine is around 7,000 tracks). I have ...

I use three forums where I find it useful to remain logged in and retain their cookies. In order to do this I would like to have the option of retaining these logins and cookies when I quit but clear the rest. In order to keep them I have had to uncheck cookies and active logins in "settings f...

If you can't unplug the microphone, you could stick some heavy tape or chewing gum over the microphone hole . Good one Flash ;-) I was thinking this morning that the problem probably is that Chrome includes Flash built-in. I used to think that was an advantage. Ha. If one uses any other browser wit...

I have been testing the Firefox add-on Redirect Cleaner with the above configuration. The purpose is that when you search google, the results do not take you directly to the respective sites; rather they take you back to google which then redirects you to the site. This 1) takes time and 2) allows g...

Bill, My wife showed me that yesterday. For a long time I used and even advocated Chrome because it was the fastest--I even made numerous Chrome pets for Lucid. Since I became more interested in anti-tracking and internet privacy I have removed Chrome from my computers and use Firefox exclusively. T...

Closing the lid does not give any effect. Chiron, acpid is not in /root/Startup probably because this is early alpha. I tested on my nasty ex-windows 8 laptop since that is newer kit. Set up the Intel 4000 video perfectly. alx.ko found the Ethernet port. mtpaint Help is not present. Sound worked. W...

I just wasted half an hour with 2 pets from 2 separate ibiblio mirrors that both would not install from either.... and curiously both were double their supposed size and showed blank in xarchive Yes, that is exactly what I have seen too. Ibiblio itself is horribly slow but at least the copies are g...

I was running Lucid 5.2.8.6 on a Dell optiplex 780, Intel Core 2 Duo CPU E7500 @ 2.93GHz, 4g RAM, w/ATI RV620 LE Radeon HD 3450 . There being no compatible ati driver , Just ignore me if I am off the point, but I have a HD 3850 that works with the ATI driver in Quickpet with Lucid 5.2.8 all version...

There is a Firefox pet that incorporates information from this discussion. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=751375#751375 This is not the end of it, or need not be. Other topics might include: 1. google redirects: when you search google you actually get a hidden redirect so that goog...

This is a version of Firefox that results from the discussion of Avoiding Tracking -> http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=745686#745686 It does NOT provide any protection from NSA type snooping nor will it help if you live in a repressive country that censors access to the world wide we...

One can also enable the Do Not track option in Firefox I would avoid using that option. It is a weak standars only accepted by less than 1/500,000th of the internet. Plus this is a weak standard (which is more dangerous than no standard, but still it this is very risky). Yes. It does very little ac...

Hallelujah, we have some actual data, and the data gives what I regard as a very useful and usable option . Adblock Plus is now available with anti-tracking and anti-malware lists to supplement their traditional anti-ad list, and a study from Stanford concludes that this combo is the one of the most...

even with recent firefox it can be trimmed down...cache sizes Yes, I was able to limit cache sizes with command line switches in packages I prepared of Chrome for Lucid--a good idea for Puppy in general I think. Firefox has those antiphishing settings. The antiphising and malware options in Firefox...

I am seeing a lot of agreement. First, we are all pessimists. "There is nowhere to run and nowhere to hide," (except to stop using the internet) greengeek: I don't believe it is even possible to 'hide' what you are doing anymore. nooby: I have that view too. I am a pessimist.If the NSA and...
