dep2pet gives me a "command not found".

The command is deb2pet. If you don't have it installed, then you can install it:

Yeah, it's not installed, but

The better way to do this ...

If you want greater debian compatibility use either, "dpup stretch" or "Stretch Dog".

That said if you insist on following this wiki article I can help. For starters
- you don't need to use dpkg -i because in most cases you can install debian packages via the ppm, the petget command or dep2pet ...

Since I use puppy as my main, daily driver, I find myself needing to use a lot of software, but for some I need to run windows, which on my machine that just barely works is not ideal. I know deb files are not guaranteed to work on puppy, but so far everything I've installed has worked.

I followed ...

Yeah, I used that website, I got the correct driver.
So ,what exact driver?
You think you got the correct one.
We think you may not have.
We need specific details to help you!

We only know what you tell us!!! :shock:

I was answering to dancytron, who linked to nvidia's website to download ...

Yeah, I used that website, I got the correct driver.

I forgot to say that, I tried these two pets, "nvidia-340-b_K4.9.58-x86_64" and "nvidia-384.98-K4.9.58-x86_64".

This is the version of nvidia's driver "nvidia-linux-x86_64-430.1.4"

I think I followed the guide closely, because I tried several times, may 7 or 8 times, each time reloading the save ...

I've been trying to have getnvidia make drivers for my machine, however it fails no matter what I do. I've made sure to load the proper kernel sources. Please help.

My OS is xenial pup 7.5 64bits, kernel 4.9.58, devx for xenialpup64 7.5, getnvidia 1.5, GPU is a GTX 660.

I don't even know what the ...

No tengo la solución, pero cuando bajé Firefox del sitio web (quería la versión ESR) no tenía sonido, cuando descargué la version más reciente del PPM (quantum) si tenía.

Antes de eso probé con: "apulse-0.1.6-x86_64" y "apulse-0.1.12-x86_64".

To set TZ, put this in /etc/profile near the end of the file:

export TZ="America/Caracas"

This should link /etc/localtime properly:

ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Caracas /etc/localtime

That is ln -sf not ls -sf.

Your adjtime file looks ok.

The configuration programs in the menu should ...

Is it ok to double post an update? If not, apologies.

With a brand new save, if I set everything correctly, and make the clock show the correct time, then Tor doesn't work because it claims the time is wrong.

With my old save Tor works and shows the correct time, but only after I do "hwclock -s ...

Yeah, I saw that after reading your other comment, always there, I just never read it. This is what I got with no save:

root# hwclock

root# hwclock -r --localtime

I tried "ln -s /user/share/zoneinfo/America/Caracas /etc/localtime",
but this is what it said:"ln: failed to create symbolic link '/etc/localtime': File exists"

I tried "ls -l /user/share/zoneinfo/America/Caracas /etc/localtime" but this is what it said "ls: cannot access '/user/share/zoneinfo ...

Use the programs menu>Desktop>Set Timezone and menu>Desktop>Set Date and Time.

In Set Timezone try using the GMT-4 setting.
Make sure the Hardware Clock set to UTC is not checked.

You are sure the hardware clock is set correctly in the computers bios and it actually is working good?

Hello, I have a problem that every time I run Puppy Linux I find that the time is 4 hours behind of what it should be, I have the timezone set correctly, and I even had to do a symbolic link of two files by doing "cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Caracas /etc/localtime", and then "date --date='TZ ...
