Where can I get it? Is it available in the PETget package manager? Is it available at http://ftp.nluug.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/distr/puppylinux/ (like xorg 7.0 with xgamma)?

Thanks for the support, everyone. I know this sounds dumb, but I realize now why the xgamma command wasn't working for me: I was still in Xvesa. I incorrectly thought I had switched to Xorg until I clicked on the Setup icon and the "Setup the X video" button, at which point I saw that I wa...

Thanks for the help in obtaining xgamma. I now have it. However, it doesn't seem to be working the way it's supposed to. When I go to the rxvt console and enter "xgamma -gamma 1.1", I get the following error message: Xlib: extension "XFree86-VidModeExtension" missing on display &...

Thanks, jrb. I downloaded and installed xorg_BASIC-7.0.pet and xorg_VIDEO_DRVRS-7.0.pet . Where do I go from here? How do I change the xgamma values and then see the results? I have tkgamma installed as well, but it doesn't seem to do anything. (tkgamma allows me to move the sliders around, but I do...

Where are the startup and powerdown scripts? I'd like to automatically delete cookies, passwords, etc. every time I turn off the computer.

I see that going to xorg7.0 to get xgamma requires downloading and installing xorg_BASIC-7.0.pet and xorg_VIDEO_DRVRS-7.0.pet . To which directory must I download these .pet files, and how do I complete the installation once I have done so?

Why was gamma removed after version 3.01? I hope that there is at least a PET package for it.

I am using version 4.11. What is the PET package I need? I tried installing and opening tkgamma (and all of its dependencies), but it doesn't seem to do anything.

On the computer that I'm using now, I would like to change the color/brightness settings. It is related to the graphics card on this particular computer and NOT the monitor. When I look at photos, Youtube videos, etc. using this particular computer, things look darker than they're supposed to. Navy ...

I noticed that the /~ directory = /root directory = /initrd/pup_ro2/root directory. I suspect that pup_ro2 stands for sda2, the partition I'm using for Puppy Linux (sda1 is the swap partition). I learned this by putting in a dummy directory. However, I don't see this dummy directory when I go to the...

I think I accidentally dragged the free memory display at the bottom of the screen out and then lost it. How do I restore this display?

UPDATE: Never mind, I booted up again, and the free memory display is back.

I'm looking for a way to automatically clear cookies, passwords, etc. from my web browser every time I power down Puppy Linux. In Damn Small Linux, I was able to do this by adding rm and rmdir commands to the script that governed the powerdown process. This required knowing where these Internet file...

In my sda2 partition with Puppy Linux frugally installed, I have TWO pup_410.sfs files. One is in /mnt/home, and the other is in /mnt/home/puppy410. This seems awfully redundant to me. Why are BOTH copies of the file needed?

I have frugally reinstalled Puppy Linux, and it's now running smoothly, and my settings save. I am using a 2-partition setup, a 256 MB swap partition at the end and a bootable ext2 partition occupying everything else. I thank everyone who helped me and enlightened me in earlier threads. However, one...

Actually, I used ext2 for both Linux partitions. So reformatting sda1 to vfat will be my next step.

My objection was merely,..at least, this is how it is supposed to work...if the pup_save.2fs is not in the menu.lst kernel-line-shown psubdir, then the bootup process ( if Puppy is working right ) stops and asks you, "Type a number to choose which personal file to use: 0 none (i.e. no loading ...

Why isn't it standard practice instead to keep everything (except the swap partition, of course) in the same partition? I don't think there is a "standard practice." Puppy offers flexibility, more than anything else. Certainly it's fine to have everything in the same partition. Can I stil...
