Re: Any tools to help me create an unorthodox dock experience?
I'm currently working on my own Linux distro and could need some help creating a unique desktop experience. Are there any tools or walkthroughs concerning docks out there (especially those rather unorthodoxly shaped)? In my young life, I've pretty much programmed everything but desktop widgets, so ...

Re: Does Microsoft sabatoge their own OSes
Now the laptop runs at the speed of a ten year old machine. For me, this has happened with every Windows install. I spent some time trying to figure out why (disabling services, uninstalling programs, etc) but came to to the conclusion that the only way to have decent performance was to periodicall...

I tried your patch in Quirky with an unmounted Samba share and it didn't make any difference to the shutdown speed. There was still an additional pause of about 10 seconds as compared to when the share was properly unmounted. If you have a samba share mounted at shutdown, does your system hang when...

Try booting with:
You can run a frugal install without X, however I don't think you can do a full install.
Or if you look around the forum, I remember seeing a minimal puplet somebody made without Xorg.
Code: Select all
pfix=nox

Why don't you try booting with the parameter loglevel=7 i.e.
This will spit out a bunch of debugging info. Maybe it will show you where the problem is.
Code: Select all
puppy loglevel=7

As far as I know, the file you are referring to with the .run extension is a shell script. If you want to execute the file you must first make it executable. Do that with: chmod +x yourfilename.run Then to execute: ./yourfilename.run Here is a similar thread: http://www.raymond.cc/forum/linux/11783-...
