rt2860pci

Hi pemasu and mark

thanks a lot for your hints!

First of all: I'm no linux expert, just a more or less experienced user. I downloaded the
2010_07_16_RT2860_Linux_STA_v2.4.0.0.tar.bz2
file from

I expected that in contains a .bin file ...

firefox 10

Hi RetroTechGuy,

I have 418 M free space on my lupusave file, so I don't think the issue is due to that.

On another PC I had the same issues as Tman with FF 10 and this forum. It seemed to freeze but after 30 or 60 seconds it opened the forum page. It really seems to be a problem of FF 10.

So let ...

wifi bug

Gave slacko 5.3.1 a try on my eee pc 901. Unlike other puppys it won't open a wifi connection (neither "sophisticated" wizard which never failed before nor frisbee). After the first boot frisbee showed the first log, after the second boot the wifi device was there but it didn't launch either (see ...

FF 10.0.2 won't start

I installed FF 9.0.1 pet on Lucid 5.2.8 with xfce. Update within FF to version "10.0.0" seemed to work (just like any former updates) but after update to 10.0.2 FF didn't start. So I uninstalled this version and re-installed the original 9.0.1 pet.

Guess I have to wait for the next pet or hope that ...

portable version works ok, i. e. it just launches dropbox without any set up dialogs. It doesn't autostart but that's not a big problem for me - I suppose puppy boots faster without this way.

Maybe the problems with the dropbox .pet are due to the fact that I run puppy from my flash drive.

dropbox

Thanks again for your tips. Deleting the hidden folders doesn't help, it just makes Dropbox forget that there already exists a Dropbox folder and some settings and ask for it in the setup procedure.

Meanwhile I switched over to the lupu edition of xfce 4.6.2 (which I like a lot BTW), and the thunar ...

Thanks a lot 666philb

Dropbox now auto starts but it's still weird:

The first screen that shows up asks for the proxy configuration, the second screen asks for my account data. While I'm typing it jumps back to the 1st screen and so forth, until I entered my complete account data. Then there comes ...

Dropbox

I'm using LuPu 528, update 2.

Dropbox install worked fine, but it won't autostart after boot, although this option is ticked and the .config/autostart folder contains dropbox.desktop.

If I start Dropbox manually, it starts the set-up assistant asking for my account data which is quite annoying ...
