cat: /usr/local/bin/defaultmediaplayer: No such file or directory
Shows up whenever I start terminal now.
How can I get the terminal back to normal?
Am on precise puppy 5.6.1

Guess that you installed some well mended .pet from somewhere ,
decided that it does not do what you want,
uninstalled it - and poof the overwritten file got deleted .
Anyway you should look into .bashrc file and /etc/profile -> /etc/profile.d/* files for script entries that want to cat files .

Hi wibble,
Look in /usr/local/bin/ to see if the file is there. If not, right click on Rox and select New Script. Name it defaultmediaplayer. Add this to it;

Cheers, I knew about the clear command. haha I just didn't want to have to type it every time I started the terminal.
Yup , another three funny possibilities to
2) put the clear command as the last line of .bashrc .
3) put exec 2>/dev/null as first line into .bashrc .
Since you already know about clear , it is clear to me that you know of the hidden .bashrc file in the $HOME directory .
Short backview :
Puppy-4 series had gxine or gxineshell as defaultmediaplayer ,
with Lupu-5 it became gnome-mplayer using mplayer .
Some rare Puppies (racy/wary) might have gmplayer as defaultmediaplayer .
No regular Puppy i know of ever had vlc as defaultmediaplayer included .
BTW : How about marking this thread as [ Solved ] ?
