I've given up using browserlinux, because it runs terribly slow and locks up for indeterminate lengths. It might be the add-ons I have installed or something, I just don't know (exch, disablemenu, rss ticker, yahoo mail notifier, yahoo mail ad blocker, tabscope, ).
There doesn't appear to be any support either for this derivative.

Ive tried this:
1. menu / desktop / chooselocale / fetch button - but no downloads
2. abiword / tools / set language / polish + make default for document - but it doesnt work for me.

I did this:
1. got microsoft true type core fonts
http://thelinuxbox.org/downloads/fonts/msttcorefonts.tar.gz
2. put them in /usr/share/fonts/default/TTF
now have nice polish letters in Abiword.

I find it very snappy and easy to configure. I've used similar add-ons but for google apps, Gmail etc. and no slow downs. Maybe reset FF back to default and see if its an add on. Check your network speed and/or wireless reception. Its still basically puppy with all the same support we get for puppy linux all around.
Hope you get things smoothed out.

hi, could someone help me?
I can't change time in the tray.
PuppySetup / Configure Puppy for your country / Set the time zone for your region -------- doesn't work for me
thanks in advance

There is newer BrowserLinux based on Puppy Linux 4.3.1 / kernel 2.6.30.5 (SMP)
http://www.browserlinux.com/
Unfortunately fonts in the browser are blurred.
Martin - why?

Senior Browser Subject description: Add eldy to puplet |
|
Hello, I like this. I used it from cd running in ram. I was wondering how can I add the eldy .sfs to it .I wanted to make a cd or usb to show off both Eldy and Puppy to a group of seniors. Your puplet is light weight and not loaded with a lot of unneeded apps. Thank you in advance.

I can't find the 68MB version anymore. I found only 70 something newer version.
Where can I get the old slim version?

Success. I searched the forum and found out how to load the Eldy .sfs. I then loaded the Java pet from the Browserlinux website. Then ran Eldy. Now could someone tell me how to remaster this on my laptop to create an iso? Please.

I love Browser Linux,but can't use it as there's no printer drivers. Is there a pet for this? I really wanted this program for my wife as it's so simple to use. For many people,printing goes hand in hand with browsing.
