Are not good.
How should I move these to preferred locations?
When I try to move an icon by drag 'n drop...
When I drop it...
It just moves back from where it came.

You can go into the ROX options menu and change this.. I cant' remember exactly where, but you can change the spacing to 'fine', which is much less annoying!Sylvander wrote:Discovered that it's possible to drag 'n drop desktop icons to certain locations but not to others.
Seems each icon has some kind of invisible force field around it that occupies quite a big area.
Hence the icons will only go to locations that are quite widely spaced.
e.g. They are about 1.25 inches up from the taskbar and 1 inch separation from each other.
That spacing seems to me to be too wide. [I have 12 partition/drive icons right now]
Dont think so sc0ttman......... NOP uses XFCE + Thunar desktop and filemanager, not Rox. In the latest XFCE you can right click on the desktop, uncheck 'keep aligned', and then put the icons where you want, as in Mint, but not available in this version.sc0ttman wrote:You can go into the ROX options menu and change this..

Not promising, see here:Sylvander wrote:Read posts #254 through #257 on page 11 of my Puppy Linux thread at the PC-Guide.
#257 explains how I changed the size of the partition/drive icons.![]()
Now need to know how to change the spacing.
Could you not just use the internet connection wizard? menu>setup>internet connection wizard>internet by wired or wireless LAN>simple network setup>wlan0 ?Sylvander wrote:Just yesterday fitted for the 1st time a wireless router [D-Link DIR-615 ver.D4].
It has been routine and easy to set that up.
Easiest in Win2000Pro because the supplied CD ran a wizard.
In each Puppy, had to use the IP address for the router in a web-browser, but that was then pretty easy to complete.
Just to note that I don't see any such problem (if I understand it right). But I use the same wired eth0 I always have.Sylvander wrote: . . .
New problem:

(a) This is the only Puppy that won't save the internet connection settings for eth0 once established and functioning during a session. . .

You jumped the gun a bit mate. Just re-uploaded the pet.
To fix your problem try the entering the depmod-FULL command in the terminal and then re-start the computer.
VB depends on SDL and OpenGL.
Have you installed an SDL pet from the quirky repo ?
For OpenGl you need either the mesa pet or if you have an NVIDIA card then my NVIDIA pet includes OpenGL.
