Hi rarsa and daftdog, Back to the beginning Torsmo and tweather.sh in ~/my-roxapps click on Torsmo icon When using original parameters exactly Torsmo outputs to desktop what was default then Kitchener : No weather.txt file is produced in /tmp no errors in /tmp/xerrs.log Does not seem to work. ******...

Thanks theinfamousj,

Fixed it by removing the us.map from /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty

Quick and dirty but works for now. when 2.13 is out I'll do a complete reinstall

Hi all, My Keyboard has decided to insist on US. The problem is I live in the UK. On boot up it says "Loading "UK" keyboard map" but does not. I've tried both versions of the keyboard wizards and reboots. Still wants to be a US keyboard! My keyboard is a PS/2 connection any idea'...

If you run the script from the command line it returns command not found If you run - bash tweather then it runs with errors. So it looks like Torsmo runs it as a "sh" and not a "bash" (This is a guess if anybody who knows what there are doing is reading) Will carry on playing DC

Sounds like a good idea,
I'm going to play with the Torsmo settings tommorow.
( last day of holiday its work time again!)

Happy New Year

Here's my script. I changed the "IF Then" statement it now works i.e. puts the html in the weather.txt #!/bin/bash # This script receives two parameters # location : is the location name in weather.yahoo.com without the .html # scale: can be "C" or "F" the default is &q...

Put `UKXX0090 location directly in line 7 and also scale to C Still nothing in weather.txt. But I get a html file created in /my-roxapps. Which is where my tweather script is located. You can see how this is created in the error file. This html (added to yahoo address) is the Maidenhead page. So abo...

I f I click on the tweather icon. a tmpXXXX file in /tmp is created and nothing inside. Nothing in the /tmp/weather.txt And in the /tmp/xerrs.log is the following. --16:51:47-- http://weather.yahoo.com/forecast/.html?force_units=1 => `.html?force_units=1' Resolving weather.yahoo.com... 216.109.126.7...

Hi
I've tried to get both of these scripts working. But can get no values in Torsmo.
Is there a way of testing the script on its own to see if its getting the varaibles from yahoo?

DC

Final update,
Still don't know why
A bios update from manufactor seems to have fixed it.

Hi All, I've had problems with DotPups all day. Is it just me? The error below is the same for various packages. I even made a 6gig partition for puppy today and reloaded everything. David example; File integrity ERROR: Set.Clock.from.the.Internet.pup Suggestion: Download the Pup file again. Not eno...

The Dotpups are very good, but I would like to learn the differences etc.
Of what I can use and how etc.

Hi All, I’m looking at trying to get Mediamvp running on Puppy. On the web site http://www.mvpmc.org/ they only mention Debian and Mandrake. So to make this a general question. When software is for other distributions or things like rpm format. What will work with puppy? Any lookup tables for when t...

Hi,
Same problem without harddrive

David

Hi all, This is not a puppy problem. I'm hoping somebody might shed some light on the why its happening. When I restart/reboot from puppy my network disappears. No hardware found at all? The line in the bios to enable the onboard Ethernet is missing like it was never there. The only way to get it ba...

Hi again, Thanks WhoDo. Copied zdrv_212.sfs to / and ran ALSACONF ISA all working now :) I'd like to just bring up a couple of points. It took me a while to figure out where to down load the file and what it was. ( http://puptrix.org/isos/Puppylinux-official/2.12/ if your looking ) I did not know th...

Hi, Can somebody point me to some more things to try. I'm trying to get a old ESS1869 ISA sound card working. I'm running puppy 2.12 from a harddrive installed option 2. On a Pentium 200 with a ESS1869 ISA sound card. I've tried ALSACONF which reports no PnP or PCI card. Probe for ISA reports FATAL ...

Hi All, I'm trying to up grade from 200 to 201. By copying off the ISO to the HD. So rather than burn a CD I thought I'll be smart. On a windows machine I've got Nero Image drive. So I load up the ISO, all the files are there. then look over the network from my laptop running puppy. All the files ar...

Aren't you actually describing Puppy?

What I want to do is click a icon in windows, which shuts down windows (then what I would discribe as a warm reboot). Load puppy in a ramdisk
but without having to go through the rebooot with a CD,usb or floppy disk

DC

Hi All, This is a idea I'd like to try. But how? The background - Take a program like Partition Magic. When it had to do a operation that it could not do in windows. It would shutdown windows then some how create a ram disk and boot dos do whatever, then close dos reboot back into windows. I know th...
