Thanks, both of you, for your advice.

s243a - you make some very tantalizing points - remastering the puppy -it is my goal/dream to have time to know linux well enough and puppy too to do something like that - or create my own pup. I was hoping I could find a 'quick fix' regarding browsers but you ...

Hi, I'm running Puppy Precise and Have been using Palemoon as my browser for a while. I'm at version 28.7.2 (32 bit) - Lately Youtube has been warning me that support for my browser is going to be cut soon.

I think it means the version number because recently, too, Palemoon has been giving me pop ...

Hi,
I run Precise 5.7.1 off a usb flash drive - no save file - I just load it and run and put things on as I need them from pets (eg avidemux/vlc/synfig etc)

On and off my personal storage file 1.0 mb alloted gets full and the icon to the bottom left of the screen flashes red. Very ominous! :shock ...

Hi,

arcade is on a cd, I think (I'm not the most methodical when testing - ok, that's an understatment!) -

But it's either CD or DVD - and weirdly, I found Lucid 5.2 and Wary 5.5 - both on CD - and Wary did the same thing - stopped at that point where you press F2 or F3 to get help and wouldn't ...

Hi,
I've been using Precise 5.7.1 on live disk DVDs for about a year now (before that I had installed on hard drive but switched to live disks as I figured out hardware etc - long story) -

The motherboard on the computer I'm using is an Asus M2A-VM and I never had a problem with the live disk ...

I got it to work OK in Xenialpup 7.0.8.1

Got it from here:
https://www.fosshub.com/Synfig.html
Make sure you get the 32bit AppImage

Like any Linux program.
They require specific dependency files/programs to be in the Linux OPS.

Precise 5.7.1 may have them, but they are too old.
The Synfig ...

Hi,
I just tried out an appimage for Synfig 1.2 using precise 5.7.1 - it didn't work.

When I tried from the console (urxvt) there were so many error messages I couldn't read the first ones because they disappeared as the error messages scrolled upwards!

Eventually with the help of screeny I ...

Hi, yes, sorry, I was 'cheap' with the info - I'm not to clear how much I have to give about any question since I'm not sure what connects with what - but I realize more info is better!

Good to know glx stopped at 1.4 -

Though when I figured out what video card I had in this old ThinkCentre ...

Hi, I am using precise 5.7.1 - and since last posting questions I have been happily learning and playing around with linux and linux puppy using the live CDs which forgive my many errors! (one of the reasons I love using puppy :D

At the moment I'm wondering - can we upgrade the version of OpenGL ...

First let me confess - I manage to install and mess up a lot it seems with my Puppy. So far, it's still hanging in there despite my 'creativity'.

Right now there's two bizarre situations (ok a couple more but these are the more important two for me right now)

I recently was downloading and trying ...

Hi Big Pup and Pelo,

Thank you both for your input.

Big Pup - I did try 2.6.4 but it didn't work for some reason. So I switched back to 2.5 because I thought it had worked. I had forgotten that it was Avidemux on my XP machine (yeah, I still have the Windows eeek!! on another machine) but here it ...

Hi, I'm using Puppy Precise 5.7.1 - I've installed a couple of different pets for Avidemux - the latest being 2.5 from here -

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=81555

because there was an additional pet for 'sound' hoping this would work as this is my issue.

I can't seem to get ...

Hi,

I need to use skype for some work - is it possible to download and use skype 4.3 on puppy linux?

Thanks.

I found a file (aptly named :) Simple_Network_Setup and in that a connections file that had the wireless info along with the cable connection info.

I deleted the wireless (wlan) and so now it does not appear in the Barry's Simple Network Setup menu.

Wonderful. :)

New Question though - there's ...

Hi,

I have cable internet but yesterday it was down so I hooked up a wifi antenna that I have and got on to check my email via a local wifi that I can use.

In the SNS set up it allows you to delete the internet configurations via the panel - if you have 2 settings they will be numbered 1 and 2 ...

Hi bigpup,

Sorry for the delay - had to get some work done so I wasn't able to tweak the system for wine/Sims.

I installed a fresh Linux Puppy Precise on a hard drive. I put on the package recommended for Precise and installed express scribe for WinXP. It didn't work.

But I saw online that other ...

Hello jcmartin,

JAVA afford this ability for its apps to run everywhere

I did not know this. Does that mean you can just download a java app and it will work on Puppy? Would I have to do something to make it work?

I would love to get an analog clock for my desktop - I saw there are java ones ...

Hi everyone :)


bigpup - I tried the config to the best of my abilities (not much of those but still . . .) - after reading what you said though I figured I needed to do a fresh install since there were 2 partitions and the one I was presently trying to get working with wine was frugal while the ...

Thank you for all the links - I came across this thread but didn't understand which wine to use or why -

With all the error messages I've gotten and the clarifications here I understand a bit more -

I downloaded the recommended pet for Precise 5.7.1 and after installing the mono and gecko ...

Hi OscarTalks,

Thank you for the input. I would have suspected that - I've seen there's a lot of versions of wine.

I have seen version2013 has a lot of pets made up for wine - I tried a bunch (not sure if they were his or other wine pets I found) but I suspected I would have to get some sort of ...
