@ICPUG: This is because Fatdog runs ntfs-3g with its full permission system enabled, enabling NTFS volumes to behave like a POSIX filesystem (which, for example, enables it to be used as a savedirectory instead of just savefile); and provides two-way access control mapping from Linux to Windows and ...

Re: What makes things change randomly??

#1 Problem I have a computer that serves use as a print server (among other things) for a couple of WinXP machines. From xp, they print to puppyserver:631/printer. Except, as of two days ago, that no longer works. They will print to 10.1.1.128:631/printer but not the name. Seems like something chan...

jafadmin has created an easy-to-use package that works with PIA using pptp. See http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=93384. No systemd required.

Now running FD 810 with my savefile, which is in fact on a luks-partition and a save-directory, breaks the sound. Trying to choose the default soundcard, only the Bluetooth devices shows up. Are you running it from an __existing__ savefile from older version of Fatdog? Please don't do that; we spec...

ames, this is a problem with fatdog. It has so many hidden goodies that aren't obvious. Hehehe. Sometimes even I forget what's inside :) Seriously, I think sometime ago smokey01 went on "exploration mode" and wrote a document about these goodies. You may want to check with him on what hap...

I am very like the rox filer's behavior in this fatdog. We can search file by typing the name keyword directly. Is it possible to make this rox filer in puppy linux? That's really up to Woof-CE guys. I look at https://github.com/jun7/rox-filer and try to compile it my self. But it still different w...

but it could utilise a more ubiquitous cloud storage space like dropbox or google drive. That depends on whether the storage space allows direct downloading via a tool like wget. For Gdrive: https://github.com/circulosmeos/gdown.pl . Tested successfully to download Taz Puppy ISO . Already in Fatdog...

The repo version of ghostscript, and the no ghostscript version look the same. Your ghostscript looks different. So even though you installed full ghostscript, which rasterizer appears to be in use? In 810-beta and older 800s, the default rasteriser is ghostscript. Which is why every single driver ...

@LateAdopter: depending on how you install your own custom kernel, if the /etc/modules are created in your savefile/savedir, you can delete it from there so that the underlying /etc/modules from the basesfs will show up again. Run "aufs_reval" from terminal after you delete it from your sa...

Scott, I've read your few posts, and I still don't get it. Perhaps it's good if you can give us a sample input and the expected output, as the "incorrect output" as produced by the currently not-working script, so we can get an idea of what it is that you want to do. As it stands, the curr...

That's already a nice achievement. But here is my problem with all suggestions so far: They all assume that a line contains only 1 comment, which is a bold assumption. True enough.
