I have cups working in qA32light. Attach picture what I have installed. Good one! I see you used cups-1.3.11, cups-1.4.8 has always been my favourite. The only problem I have had is that libcups.so.2 is required by many Apps and the older versions aren't acceptable to the newer Apps. I put libcups....

/etc/X11/xkb/symbols/pc/it is missing. Copied from precise light 5.7.2. Also copied from precise /lib/keymaps/it.gz. Now "setxkbmap it" works. I notice that /lib/keymaps/it.gz is already included in Quirky7. Was that version incompatible with the /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/pc/it from Precise? I...

I have to deal with lots of .doc files. For years now I've been using Softmaker FreeOffice as a portable install on my harddrive, no ram required I'll do a write-up on it in Post #2. You have to supply an email address when you download, its up to you whether you use your primary email. Comes with ...

In my continuing quest for small, efficient OS's suitable for use on older ram challenged machines, I have reworked the two Quirky Aprils from BarryK, the master of efficient, unbloated compiling. I'm looking for feedback so please give them a try. Thank you, jrb. I downloaded, and hope to try and ...

Hi nic, I think you can get bye with gnumeric without abiword; the smaller size ted is actually a better word-processor for most purposes. Cups and Xsane are another story. See the discussion on the Tahr64-Light thread from here, http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=1047923#1047923 . If...

Just as a matter of interest: What would the size of your distribution be if Cups, Xsane, Abiword and Gnumeric were to be retained? Just wondering if the exclusion therof and consequent drop in functionality is worth it. I know that Abiword and Gnumeric are not particularly large, don't know about ...

Once again, thanks ally. Your services to Puppy are MUCH appreciated.

Thank you for this. I am testing it on an EEEPC 901A 1.6GHz single core with 2 gigs ram. It is running smoothly. I installed this to the internal drive on SDA1 with a save folder. The menu only listed 2 items, exit & help. I ran fixmenu in terminal and that created a menu. I am posting from Viv...

You're quite welcome. I hope you enjoy them.

I have tested in a live session of slacko 6.3.2 and 5.7.1 the following sfs of firefox 74.0 running in a chroot jail from qAlight_32. Profile is in /cnt/usr/local/firefox/profile where you can copy current profile already used. The sfs is gzip compressed and about 175 Mb. I do not know how it can p...

Notes and Comments (hopefully kept in alphabetic order) Compatibility - Quirky7 seems to be very compatible which PuppyTahr and also PuppyPrecise. If you look in /root/.packages/added-packages you will see that I used packages from both to get up and running. Cups Printing - I have posted standard C...

While in Precise_light-5.7.2 I used Menu->Setup->PuppyInstaller->UniversalInstaller->UsbFlashDrive->sdc1, formatted my usb to ext3 with Gparted and then Install_Puppy_to_sdc1. It installed the 4 main Puppy files to sdc1 and created a very simple extlinux.conf file in which I can add boot parameters...

Hi theeastsun, It's also been a while since I actually had to have functional isolinux.cfg and/or syslinux.cfg. But, I think fairly recently someone posted that however you installed Puppy to a USB -Key, when the application which created it writes "pmedia=cd" it has to be edited to read ...

in my flashdisk there is no menu.lst file Nice photo. It's been quite a while since I worked with syslinux. Can you post the contents of syslinux.cfg and isolinux.cfg? I have to confess that I don't remember how I used syslinux before, :oops: its been years and even then I only did it once out of c...

So; since the 32-bit version won't function 100%, I'm following my personal rule, and am only going to publish the 64-bit version Mike, I've been working on my Portabrowse.pet (I have a project I want it use it in) and I have come across install-vivaldi.sh published by the Vivaldi people. It downlo...
