I'm a beginner, i have installed Chubby puppy to myHD. Now I want to install XMMS using available package (v. 1.8?) trough "install alien package" but always failed. The message said something like "... should be installed at the top folder like /root but your software wants to install anywhere else..." Can anyone help me?? Thanks

Use the dotup downloader to install xmms.
With dotpups you just press & go like an .exe
With puppy's unleashed packages you can install as an alien package.

yes, use the dotpup.
If it does not work:
type "xmms" in a console.
If you get an error like "Bad Match", then edit /root/.xmms/config
Replace the lines there with this:
Code: Select all
[xmms]
eq_doublesize_linked=FALSE
doublesize=FALSE
show_wm_decorations=FALSE
If it still fails, try to run it with another WindowManager than JWM. Use Icewm for example.
