Yes, my son-in-law found it and adjusted it while SuSE was booting up and it said "auto adjust in progress". I hope it stays put next time I boot SuSE. It does not seem to auto adjust for Puppy though and I am still concerned that if I mess with the monitor settings, that it would affect t...

Well ok, now I have that newer Nvidia driver uninstalled (I think) and I'm pretty sure that I'm back to the older one (173.14.12-k2.6.25.16) but still, OpenGL is not working. I did a dependency check for Armagetron and it said that it was missing libgluso.1. When I try using SweetHome3D, it still te...

ok, I tried that but it looks like puppy is not using the new one. It looks like it went back to using the previous one and "insists" on use the nv driver and not "nvidia". Can I uninstall this newer driver? After that, can I install the older one without rebooting or something? ...

Well, here's another thing about the new driver: Now OpenGL does not work.
How can I go back to the one that Open GL worked? Or how do I get it to work with this newer one?
ok, now I gotta find my x11 stuff to post for you. :)

ok, now I've tried that latest Nvidia driver but still, the display does not take up the entire screen.

When I clicked on the Nvidia settings, it said something about using nvidia xconfig. I don't know how to get to that. I don't even know if that would fix this.

@disciple: no, I can't adjust the monitor because I use it on SuSE and everything works/looks fine with that distro. If I change anything to suit puppy, then the settings will be messed up for SuSE.

@Argolance: Thanks I'll have to try it out.

Exactly. I would like for Puppy to ask what directory to put the save files in right at the beginning when you first shut puppy down and it goes through the option of saving the session. Right now, it just asks about the drive, and does not include any folders as far as I've seen.

Display resolution set to 1280 X 1024 but still doesn't fit

my monitor display should be 1280 X 1024 @60Hz On Puppy, it is set that way but the display is short by between 30 and 40 pixels on the right and left sides. I'm wondering what can be done about that. I have Puppy 4.1 and my settings are saved to a pen drive. I also have the NVidia driver installed ...

How to run more than one Puppy version from a drive?

Can you make puppy so that you can save your settings/savefiles to a sub folder so as not to interfere with another version? So, you'd be able to have 2 or more versions on the same pendrive but in different folders. This way, I'd be able to have both puppy 4.1 and puppy 4.3 saved on the same pendri...

Thanks CatDude. I'm glad that it does work after all. I run Puppy 4.1 (Kernel 2.6.25.16) and have saved my settings onto a pendrive. Also, I have recently installed java 1.6.14 from a .pet as I've said earlier. Anyway, how do I get at that error message that I mentioned earlier so that I can post it...

SweetHome3D on Puppy

When I extracted the .tar.gz file, it said that it had some sort of error. I have no idea how to find that. Anyway, I tried running it and it seemed to work fine except the keyboard shortcuts don't seem to work and especially, the delete and backspace buttons, both of which are used to get rid of an...

I have SeaMonkey 1.1.11 and would like to install the newest flash. Is it compatible or should I get a newer version of SeaMonkey? (there's a .pet for that, right?)
I'm running Puppy 4.1.2 with my settings saved to a USB stick.
