I have tried on live CD and full install on HD with same results.
- 1. freezes on second time opened.
2. full screen for video doesn't work.
3. internet radio presets play for only 45 sec's.

You're pretty bright, 2 to 3 indicates a major release. It's often smoother to stay with an earlier version and read what reoccurring problems people are having with a new release, before moving.oiboy wrote:I thought this puppy distro was supposed to be easy for beginners to grasp. All the above solutions are for advanced class. The best solution seems to be : use vers 2.17.1
People are here to help, if you're still with us, let me know and I'll show you a great way to burn .iso files in Puppy fast and reliably and work through any bugs you have in the process.oiboy wrote:I'm trying to make a cd of vers 2.17.1 but the burniso2cd burner doesn't recognize the downloaded .iso file in the downloads folder. Now I have another problem. Figure out whats wrong for the next 2 hours or solve it by burning the CD in WinXP in 2 minutes.

It plays everything I throw at it with no extra stuff needed. The only thing I wish I knew was how to have it open automatically from Opera. Right now I download files or copy over URLs.

Very nice and versatile.
Found some radio streams on the net.
For TV over internet in Windows, I had to install VLC also.
That's what I like. The same app's in more then one OS environment.
Just one thing is missing: A facility to make a video/audio/radio library, so you classify tittles by album/singer etc....
