Look for "trip_points" in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/ Open it as a text file and you will see the temperatures at which the fans will start. Mine is too high (70 degrees C). I can change it temporarily but I never found out how to do it permanently. One thing that I noticed, with most puppy versions I ...

Hi sc0ttman, I've played a bit with mounting ntfs partitions and the problem is definitely related to using the mount command without specifying a file type. mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 uses a different driver to mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 When "-t ntfs" is specified ntfs-3g is used to mount ...

whenever I use the above script, or the mount all button in the gui, my NTFS partitions are read only.. They mount properly if I mount them seperately, but if I use 'mount all', it's always read only NTFS... I guess this is related to the original issue where ntfs was only mounted read only. MU ...

Surely megaupload is not the best choice for such an endeavour. I have a premium account but what about the many more that don't? Downloading many small files as a free use is a pain. Even Megashares would be a better option as for free users there is no count down timer and you only have to enter ...

Hi, How does VLC know which codecs it can play? I have a version 8.6.i installed which I use as a backup but it doesn't seem to play a lot of common file types. It keeps saying no suitable decoder module. Are the codecs built in with VLC or does it use an outside library? I think mplayer has some ...

you had to use puppy pfix=copy to force to copy to ram at startup. I think in the earlier Puppies if you had 256MB or more ram then it automatically loaded the pupxxx.sfs into ram. At some point the 256MB was changed to a higher number and the pfix=copy was introduced. A pfix=noram can be added by ...

I found out that the context menu can be open with control/backslash. Are you talking about the context menu within Rox? That can be changed to open with just the backslash. From the Rox context menu go to Options>Menus and you can change that with the "File Menu on Right Click" option. You can ...

I have used Netmeter on Windows and it had that feature. I believe Netmeter runs under Wine if that is of any use to you. http://www.metal-machine.de/readerror/ I am curious about the cause of your problem. I routinely browse, download and use voip simultaneously without noticing affect on browsing ...

Yes I have those too. I just wanted to make sure there was nothing suspicious about them and if I deleted them then it wouldn't break anything just in case they were interfering with my internet connection.

Thanks people.

I can't seem to find what 192.168.1.1 is. It appears in my /etc/hosts but it has nothing to do with my router.

Were these just generic numbers that were used and should I just ignore them?

Thanks

I think if i do use puppy, im gonna use boxpup.. because i really like oppenbox.. but i cant seem to find the right iso image..c Download from http://www.puppylinux.asia/tpp/NOP login: puppy password: linux Looks like 421 with retro kernel is the most recent. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy ...

I had thought I understood this but after reading this thread it appears may be not. Could someone please confirm? My understanding of absolute and relative was as follows: Absolute: path is stored relative to / Relative: path is stored relative to target. Relative link and target can be moved and ...

Hi, does anyone know if there ever was a retro kernel version 2.6.21.7 done of this?

It would be really handy to be able to scroll down webpages using SeaMonkey, and maybe tap the 'z' key to go down through the page. Well the simple solution is to just use the spacebar to scroll down a page. It already does the job. Although on some web pages you might have to click the mouse on ...

Yes it might be worthwhile to have TCL installed anyway. I'll also look at 4.21. I did find that there are a few non-TCL gui's about as well but but looks like it is hardly necessary as to turn them on it is just ax +stickykeys Silly name though ax. I didn't realise that was anything to do with ...

Hi Tell us what files are put where and a copy of your menu.lst. Then we may be able to see what is causing the problem. That seemed like a fair request to me, which was ignored (or maybe just overlooked) But I had described where I put the files even before ICPUG's post and I included the line ...

Is this where you download BrowserLinux ? Yes that was it. After you downloaded BrowserLinux did you run a checksum ? No, but I wasn't burning to disc anyway. If needed you can find most versions of Puppy at any of the Ibiblio sites on the Puppy Linux Wiki Links page. I am not sure what you are ...

Yes in my naivety I was hoping for a screen with a big button saying 'download puppy linux 4.3.1 But that would be a bit too user friendly/usable for linux wouldn't it... :roll: http://linux.softpedia.com/get/System/Operating-Systems/Linux-Distributions/Puppy-Linux-1996.shtml There you go, big ...

If you are using the standard Puppy with JWM try looking in the hidden file:
/root/.jwmrc-tray

Just edit out the lines associated with it.

I have been using Accessx in Puppy but it doesn't work in the Puppy 4 series because it no longer has TCL. Is there a replacement? I know Ubuntu has it. Does that mean there is a gtk2 option? I can't do without my sticky keys. Edit: ok it looks like the cli command ax still works. It was just the ...
