SOLVED -> How to stop "You will lose data" message?
Is there a way to stop the "You will lose data message." when I want to kill a process ?

What program are you using to try to kill the process (I think there are a few different programs used by some puppies)?
With open source there is always a way - the question is how easy it is. If this is with Pprocess it should be fairly easy, as Pprocess is just shell script and you don't need to recompile. But Zigbert is very responsive to feature requests, so you might like to ask for an option for it...

Do you know a good gtkdialog program? Please post a link here

I think fixit is posting his solution/workaround, not clarification of his problem. Unless I'm confusing him with someone else, he has a tendency to do this...

For example, I could tell you how to repair a Flame Spectrophotometer in great detail.
But you would probably want to ask some questions.
Yes, that's why I asked this: "What program are you using to try to kill the process?"fixit wrote:If someone does not understand my problem, then wouldn't asking questions help in that ?disciple wrote:I think fixit is posting his solution/workaround, not clarification of his problem.

But you didn't answer it then.
Now you have started to - it sounds it's using your window manager (or panel), which is probably JWM.

Assuming this is in a Puppy with JWM, I think you need JWM recompiled with confirmation dialogs disabled

To compile things you need the devx as described at http://puppylinux.com/development/compileapps.htm
I think JWM uses the standard `./configure; make; make install` build process.
You need to configure JWM with the option --disable-confirm
Check the other options too by running `./configure --help` (I think the ridiculous rounded windows are evil, so I always disable them).
But I thought Puppies normally didn't use those confirmation dialogs... if you have another recent Puppy which doesn't use them you may just be able to grab its /usr/bin/jwm to use, instead of building your own.

Presumably you are asking about this possibility:
No, you wouldn't need to install it as you can just open up the .sfs and copy jwm out. But if you don't know a particular Puppy with an appropriate build of JWM, it'll be better just to build it yourself.if you have another recent Puppy which doesn't use them you may just be able to grab its /usr/bin/jwm to use, instead of building your own

The message comes likely when right-clicking a drive icon to unmount it .
Puppy code is in /usr/local/bin/drive_all --> /root/.pup_event/drive_sdaX/AppRun .
It is rather unfortunate, that it uses in
unmount_func()
and not something like

Disciple gave the correct answer >> --disable-confirm = disable confirmation dialogs
If it were moi, I'd bypass JWM altogether, install xkill, then wrap it up neatly with a key combo.
