@jim1911: Here is something to try. Pick a Puppy where NTFS mounting works and copy its ntfs-3g components into Precise. For example, I went into Wary 5.3 and got the files /bin/ntfs-3g, /lib/libntfs-3g.so.79 and /lib/libntfs-3g.so.79.0.0. I dropped these into Precise and mounted an NTFS partition....

This distribution is one of the best yet :D , however I get the following error message when trying to mount an ntfs partition on which Windows 8 is installed. I have made certain that Windows is properly shut down and have run chkdsk on the partition. Precise pups or derivatives are the only distri...

Keep a disk copy of a pup such as Slacko that has no problem accessing your ntfs partition. Lucid 5.28 should work fine. After installation of ubuntu or other OS, insert your disk, Boot puppy into ram, and reinstall grub4dos. You will probably want to edit your new menu.lst but the reinstall will sa...

Latest puppy version. Lloyd Standish's official website of snap2.

Barry still needs to consider snap2 for inclusion in official pups.

The recent update of Bibletime 2.9.2 has fixed numerous bugs including one that eliminated text from Ubuntu Raring compatible pups. I've requested some developers to consider an update package to Bibletime 2.9.2 for their pups.

Hi pemasu, I reported previously that no text is visible in Bibletime on Raring compatible pups due to recent Ubuntu Raring updates. It has been confirmed as a Raring bug, however the recent update of Bibletime 2.9.2 has fixed this bug. We just need to package Bibletime 2.9.2 for puppy if possible. ...

Hi pemasu, It's working great although I still have the mounting problem for an ntfs partition. Your new sfs for VirtualBox appears to work fine. Although, there is a newer version available from Oracle. I did add their Extension Pack which is required to activate some USB features and it installed ...

Hello Everyone, I have just done a big update to Manna. It is now called Manna Bible Software. Manna will now open to full-screen. Getting better. Although, this still does not work as it should. Pressing the button to resize makes no change. However, now the screen can be manually resized (using m...

Jim1911. I have windows 7. When I hibernate it, it shuts down. When I press powerbutton, it boots to my grub4dos menu. When I then boot Upup Raring, it informs me that my windows 7 partition is hibernated, when I try to mount it. So it mounts it as read only. The same message as you got. So....hibe...

Jim1911. Do you have windows os installed. If yes, then it might be that you have windows os in hibernation. Ie when you let it hibernate it shuts down the comp and you can boot Upup Raring, but it has side effects when you try to mount that ntfs partition. You need to reboot to the windows os and ...

Hi pemasu,

Your latest is still working great although when I tried to edit my menu.lst, ran into this problem:

Hi pemasu, Your new NVIDIA driver worked perfectly for me, just had to reboot, nothing else. I tried VirtualBox, however it gives this error message although it does have the kernel source loaded: # VirtualBox WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module available for ...

Hi TaZoc, Having fun with it, as you can see eSword works find as well as the obsolete commercial program, Quickverse 2011, running under Wine installed with greendome's latest wine-1.6-rc5-i486_v1.pet along with Fatdog's 32bit-slacko.sfs. You may want to add them to your update with a reminder that...

Pemasu has come up with another fine distribution. His latest Upup Raring is great, it's worked well for everything I've tried. Bibletime doesn't work properly, however Xiphos does. That bug is caused by Ubuntu Raring though, not pemasu's Upup. For Xiphos to have any resources to use, Bibletime stil...

Hi pemasu, Your latest Upup Raring is great, it's worked well for everything I've tried. Bibletime still doesn't work properly, however Xiphos does. That bug is caused by Ubuntu Raring though, not your Upup. For Xiphos to have any resources to use, Bibletime still has to be installed. Thanks for ano...

Hi Mick,

It's working great with everything tried except NVIDIA driver installation.

Jim

Hi Mick,

It's working great with everything tried, including printing, Wine and my favorite Windows software. I'll have to try your new f2fs installer.

Thanks,
Jim
