It's not a dumb question, it's one of the things Puppy does a little differently from other distros. This distro has many different package installation options. Anyway, see this http://www.puppylinux.com/development/p ... gement.htm and look under "SFS modules" to see how to install this one.Gopher wrote:Hi.

I have used SFS files before, and I'm pretty sure this one should be installed. I'm using 4.0, and I downloaded from the first link in the original post. I renamed it with the '_400.sfs' suffix so it would automatically be loaded with the other two sfs files, which work ok.
My question is how do I run the program now? As I said, I don't see any new entries on the menu.

GO-OO
I could install GO-OO and can start Writer/Calc/Impress but in Impress, the "3D transitions" (http://go-oo.org/discover/) won't work.
(I have no problem with the "normal" transitions; those work fine)
What do I forget ?
Or does this not work in Puppy Linux ?

I can't figure out how to download the file! When I click on the "download" link in this first post, I get taken to a page with about 4 download buttons on it. At the bottom of the page is what looks like a link to the file to download, but when I click on that, I get a full-screen page with 2 buttons on it, Download and Play Now. Clicking on the Download button goes to some page about ringtones! It's just a sequence of advertising pages. How do I get the actual SFS file?

Here's a screenshot pointing out the button/link:

Wow. There were so many buttons that I didn't know what button to use! I clicked on a link of the filename but that didn't help.
Dingo, you want another site to put that on? I own several domains and I don't use much bandwidth, so I should be able to host that file for you.
