Hi wert, Maybe startmount will help: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=377699#377699 Edit: Thanks bigpup. Forgot how the pmount application worked. Knowing that makes the above unnecessary. Add WPS Office to musher0's list. But I'd strongly suggest Softmaker Office. http://www ...

Hi wert. My sympathies about your lost documents. With a pet archive of LibreOffice or OpenOffice, -- not with a sfs -- It is possible to have a symlink from /opt/openoffice or /opt/libreoffice to another drive, but the problem remains: how much space do you have? As a matter of fact I do have a ...

I have tried installing the LibreOffice-4 sfs but when x is restarted, it gets out again thus having me reinstalling. It's crucial software since the stock abiword I will never ever use again. It has destroyed many of my important documents for good leaving me stranded. I need to install the sfs ...

you only need to update the ppm occasionally. It takes about 5 minutes total time. If 5 minutes and hitting enter about 7 times is drudgery your time must be extremely valuable. Crack open some documents and teach yourself something about Linux...I don't share hard won knowledge to save some punk ...

Personally, I use this exclusively.... Save Folder Backup and Restore http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=950010#950010 I have an external drive that I back up to. I find it much faster than online storage. The pups I use, I have a sync folder to my network pc which gets backed up on ...

Bingo! I have thought of a solution to my google drive backup and sync application. Don't know if this is a good idea so please advice me before I try it since I dont have knowledge on filesystems. I installed google-drive-ocamlfuse which enables me to mount my google drive and use it just like i do ...

Always, always run the update database to PPM and then search for programs. PPM>Configure>Update Database I'm afraid updating database to PPM is not gonna work with me. It's drudgery, Plus I can't have that time. How does someone keep clicking the dialogue boxes constantly like do you actually do ...

:D Hello, The PPM points to a static repo, which isn't updated, to prevent conflict. Quickpet is an evolving repo updated by devs when new things are approved... The Ubuntu repos the PPM uses are updatable, and you can point it at new repos as well, but it requires editing a text file manually ...

Many thanks for your help but I've now resolved to use google drive service since I already have an account there that's hard to migrate to dropbox. I've seen that many linux distros nowadays have native google drive support. Do you think it's possible to setup a google drive backup and sync in my ...

No need to start a new thread for the same issue. Installing a batch of deb files is no different than installing a single deb file. All it takes a command in a terminal: 1) Install a single deb : dpkg -i one_single.deb 2) Install a batch of debs : dpkg -i *.deb I tried to help you in your original ...

I have tried but it seems it only does one file and then exits.
Specs:
Distro: tahrpup 6.0.2

Distribution : tahrpup - 6.0.2 I hope you have used the Quickpet>Tahrpup updates. Tahrpup 6.0.2 was a bug fix testing version and Tahrpup is now up to V6.0.5. Yes I have dude. And thanks alot for ur details. BTW why doesn't the Quickpet>Tahrpup updates also update the ppm database? Or is ppm not ...

I have tried the dropbox installer from quickpet tahr but after installing it says I'm not connected to the internet. So I don't think it's still working in puppy linux. I'm really looking forward to setup a sync of my libre office docs to google drive so the second option was insyc . I double click ...

Hi! i'm not very experienced with linux. I have tried installing the following app but it doesn't load Overgrive . The package is overgrive_3.2.3_all.deb but when I try opening the app, its returns the following root# ./overgrive ./overgrive: line 1: $'\003\363\r': command not found ./overgrive ...

Mobile partner 21 works well for ussd functionality but be sure to run top in terminal when your pc becomes unresponsive as this application will likely be the culprit when you hit m.

I have the following method I could use to split it: tar cvzf - /mnt/sdcard/Large\ file.bin/ | \ split -b 4294967295 - /mnt/sda1/Large\ file\ piece.tgz The result of my brainstorming is to tell the above command to pause after /mnt/sda1/Large\ file\ piece.tgza output, burn that to loaded DVD, rm ...

I take backups on schedule daily. Just backups of important data with files ranging from executable, documents of all kinds, education material, full OS backups, just all things that can be saved in hard discs which is where they are initially. I use normal 4.7Gb blank DVDs -r and +r. My plan ...

Seeing as puppy linux features different flavours e.g. the wonderful puppy arcade for gamming, are there any plans for a music production distro such as KXStudio as these will have a low latency kernel and other optimizations that will allow you to get superior performance over stock Linux ...

Other ways to check a burn: -- use the procedure to check a disc in PeasyDisc -- use < cd-info > or < cd-info --dvd >: if cd-info shows you something legible in its "analysis" part (at bottom of the listing), your burn should be good. Other reliable CD / DVD burning utilities in Linux that won't ...

@wert: Please explain what you are doing. Where are these important files? On the multi-session disc? What are you trying to burn? Just those files to a different disc? Or are you trying to clone the entire disc? What procedure do you use in Nero? How is it seeing the contents of a Puppy multi ...
