Re: This may be of interest for Firefox, SeaMonkey, and ...

I may be missing something but I don't see how the article explains why Mozilla is using full-next-numbers for what appear to be nothing more than maintenance releases, i.e. bug fixes and security updates.

Dial-Up Apps in Legacy OS

Hi, Sorry if I'm too late but I wanted to note my experience with dial-up when briefly trying Legacy OS several months ago. As I recall, there were at least three separate dial-up apps included but not one of them worked for me. I don't recall the exact details now but I wonder whether you've consid...

In both Firefox 4.0.1 as well SeaMonkey 2.0.14, the add-on "User Agent Switcher" is missing all of the pre-configured user agents!

Any idea what's going on here?

To put it simply no Puppy does not include utlities that can do what bleachbit is designed to do. Thank you for clarifying that. Does Puppy automatically clear at least some of the saved logs and cache when they reach a certain size? (This is just an honest and innocent inquiry; I do not mean to im...

Re: Dial-Up Modem Update

I don't know what happened because this modem [3Com 3CXM556 PCMCIA] did work in Puppy 4.3.1 ( And likely in Lucid Puppy 5.0.1 as well, though I don't recall the latter for certain). I have now tried Lucid Puppy 5.2.5 and found that it also will not detect this modem. I then went and tried Lucid 5.0...

Agreed- Should Ask

I just booted Wary Puppy 5.1.1 using a saved session file for the first time and, much to my chagrin, discovered this automatic saving of the session. Is there a reason it can't ask whether you'd like to save the session, the way it does when no saved session file was invoked at boot-up? (By default...
