Puppy Package Manager
Hello. After installing packages from the Puppy Package Manager, do I need to do anything else to get them started on my computer. I have installed a couple of packages including an on screen clock but can not them to work.
Thanks. Paul

Still not solved this problem. When I install packages (with all the dependent packages) where do they go to on my computer/puppy linux. Have installed Simple network protocol tools, a Screen Clock and the HP printscanfax support. But can not find these in Puppy menu or anywhere else on my computer. Obviously I need to get into these to use them. Thanks. Paul
Command 'fixmenus', and if you use JWM, open the JWM config window and restart JWM after a download. Some - not all - installations warn that the screen will blink, that is because of the restart of the window manager. Sometimes restarting X after many downloads will set things straight.

Hello. OK then.
Xgames-0.3 Small X games collection (Dont play games but a good test!).
Oclock-1.0.3 X11 on screen clock.
HPLIP-3.12.9 HP Printscanfax support.
What ever I try the "Installed packages" do not appear in my menu.
When I use this function in Lucid, everything appears in menu, with no problem.
I do get a lot of screen freeze when using this function in Lucid and a small amount of screen freeze in Slacko with this function.
I am actually thinking of doing another download of Slacko to see if this might sort the problem out. Thanks. Paul

That's correct. In which case, this can help when running Slacko.
