Any documentation re modules-2.4.29-completet.tar.gz?
Posted: Thu 27 Oct 2005, 00:31
Is there a doc / howto on installing any of the modules-etc in the modules-2.4.29-complete.tar.gz? Basically a 101 doc. I've tried doing searches in the forums with "modules-2.4.29-complete.tar.gz" in the search field, but nothing really pointing toward a doc file.
I don't see save2image in the Start menu in Puppy 1.0.5. Is this still available or has it been replaced with something else?
Any docs on usr_devx.sfs?
Any help would be appreciated.
A suggestion: There are several html doc's on different subjects like
boot2pup.htm,
cd-puppy.htm,
config-puppy.htm,
etc
at different locations on the Puppy Linux web page. To find them all one has to jump around the different parts of the Puppy Linux web page.
There's also the doc's on the CD itself like:
HOWTO get onto the Internet
HOWTO setup a network
HOWTO multimedia
Then there's the HowTo's in the forum.
Can there be one location for documentation that applies to the majority of the Puppy Linux users? Possibly another link at the top fo the main page next to the Download link that could be Documentation?
I realize that all documents cannot be at this one location. I would suggest all the docs from the CD, all the docs that are spread around the Puppy Linux web page (boot2pup.htm, cd-puppy.htm, config-puppy.htm' etc) and new docs on major subjects like downloading and installing modules-2.4.29-complete.tar.gz, or compiling with usr_devx.sfs.
Centralizing the documentation on major points could reduce the number of qustions you get on the discussion forums. Minor points / specific questions that do not apply to a large majority of Puppy linux users would then go to the forum area.
Just an idea.
