Hi rufwoof! I still have some hope that an older version of FatDog, e.g. v701 can work on our newer toughbooks at least. I found the following documentation, which should allow me to do some tests: http://mistyrebootfiles.altervista.org/documents/TinyPXEServer/files/fatdog.htm I’ll keep you posted! ...

Hi rufwoof! Thanks so much for your reply! I’m a bit familiar with how to build PXE images since I have done so with Puppy Lupu v5.2.5. Anyway, later builds didn’t boot and I got various error messages like segment faults, etc. I checked the website of FatDog and it seems that the hardware requireme...

Hi folks, In our school we use an older version of Puppy, which is Lupu v5.2.5. We boot is using PXE. It works nicely for us for the past 2 years. Our experience with booting from USB or CD was not really a viable option. PXE works best for us. Our clients are all toughbooks without hard drives. Pup...

Hi folks, I tried to run anki on lupu 5.2.5. Initially I had issues with sip resulting in "ImportError: No module named sip". I was able to fix this by installing the required packages. I'm now stuck with "ImportError: No module named PyQt4.QtCore". I took packages from ubuntu-lu...

Thanks for your quick reply and sorry for making myself not clear enough. True, the newest browser versions cannot be found in the official lupu repository but we don't need that.

Hi folks, I'm currently booting Lupu 5.2.5 in our school setup using a pxe server. I simply followed forum available manuals to create the bootable image. Works like a charm! I wish to switch to a higher version, e.g. Slacko 6.3.0. The included firefox browser appears to be more stable. The manuals ...

It's a missing symlink in lupu.

I have tested gtypist and tuxtype this morning.

gtypist is working perfectly.

tuxtype is not working yet. I downloaded and installed all 5 packages. When I launch tuxtype a windows opens just for a second and closes again... Any ideas?

Kind regards,
Roman

@smokey01

Thanks for keeping at it!

I'll try it this week together with gtypist and report back to you.

Hi folks, I'm using Puppy in my school. I regularly get the request to make a typing trainer available. It appears that none is currently available for Puppy. In my research I came across a number of open source softwares: - Ktouch - Tipptrainer - Tuxtype - Typespeed It appears that Tuxtype is rathe...
