My tax office requires all attachments to be in PDF format. I now have various image files in PNG format which I want to convert. The challenge: The resulting PDFs should have exactly the same dimensions as the source files. Normally PDF printing/converting offers to select a page size, e.g. A4 or l...

The question is not connected or not but enabled or not. I made it the question.because it seems to me that this is the only question that a user and the code can reliably answer. "Enabled" is very ambiguous. One example, tested on a netbook (HP Mini 210) and a notebook (Acer Aspire ONE 7...

https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/pull/4278 I hope the logic is correct, this will need some testing :) Maybe something like this, before or after the initial case "$DISABLE_SUSPEND" ... esac command: # Do not suspend if external monitor connected [ $(xrandr -q | grep -c ' con...

I was not aware that it does not work in F96-CE_4 . I didn't have a computer that has a lid to close at the time the distro was being developed. My current PC doesn't have a lid either and on netbooks I usually have an external monitor attached where I keep the lid open to improve cooling. I never ...

I don't use BookwormPup64 ..but it might be similar to other puppies. I use Fossapup64 and on this system - and all the previous puppies I've used - there has been a file called 00000080 in the directory /etc/acpi/LID On previous puppies it has been this file which controls what happens when the LI...

wizard I went through your linked posts and I noticed, that the most simple solution (click on a drive icon to mount) was dismissed by a user who doesn't use drive icons. However if I understand dellus correctly he uses the drive icons to mount. The only annoyance is the automatic opening of a ROX ...

@MochiMoppel Is this the keyboard you are referring to? .... Mind you it did take up a lot of space. No.Your photo shows the "Elite", the successor that had a different key layout, which made it 5 cm less wide than the original model. This is mine: NaturalKeyboard.jpg It also comes with a...

Over the years I used various PCs, quite a number of storage devices and all kinds of mice and trackballs. Sooner or later they all ended up as garbage. With one exception: my keyboard. Yesterday I noticed that it is its 30th birthday. A Microsoft Natural Keyboard, manufactured 1994, "MICROSOFT...

a simple terminal todo list that could be improved
mkdir -P ~/todo/do ~/todo/done
paste the code into your .bashrc

Did you test? Should be mkdir -p ~/todo/do ~/todo/done
Small letter p !

i realize i just need globicons in /root/.config/rox.sourceforge.net/ROX-Filer/globicons so my question to you "if you know the anser" is why is there 2 globicons in different places ? Because Puppy devs love to ride dead horses? :lol: Seriously, I don't know. ROX deprecated the /root/Cho...

MochiMoppel

But what about the rox-filer itself? It's my favorite file manager and it worked well until this forum thread. Now I've opened it, selected a file, right-clicked another one, and - déjà vu! - got the context menu for the first. You understand the gtk mechanics far better than me. Do you have any th...

To close an already opened app it seems like CTRL + Q usually works for most apps I have tried, but it's not consistent. For example I couldn't find a key combination yet that would close MPV.

Alt+F4 (almost) always works.

Hello all while i was running LunarPup and HunPup i notice that the file globicons in /root/Choices/ROX-filer/globicons and /root/.config/rox.sourceforce.net/ROX-filer/globicons have some wrong info about the files and paths so i decide to make a globicons generate to fix that issue Firstly: Nice a...

I suspect Moonchild has just got a bug here,

Methinks @atmega is talking about a failing ytd-app, i.e. a Youtube dowloader. This would have nothing to do with Pale Moon, right?

Not a joke anymore: Lines for Puppy 4.x Looking back at the original post, this was the challenge: " What we need for a horizontal line is a window with a colored background, no text, no decoration, 1px high and as wide as the screen. " We now know what does not work: urxvt, yad and step ...

This is a little utility that was inspired by this user request and subsequently developed and discussed here Primarily meant to create guide lines to assist in reading data tables etc., it can be used for other purposes, e.g. as a poor-man's screen blanker (just make the line thickness larger than ...

The other party pooper is the adjustment of widgets, especially the pixmap widget that i use to preview images. IIRC you posted about this issue somewhere else. mmview was affected by this issue too. Hmmm...can't remember. MMview miraculously seems to handle pixmaps as expected but has other proble...

There seems to be yet another problem with GTK3 tree widget... When using <action signal="changed"> for an item and then refreshing the tree runs this action for every item in the tree, not only for the selected as i would expect. Maybe i misunderstood the logic for signal=changed??? No, ...

I grab it from fossapup "fossapup" doesn't answer my question. Never mind. Newest version is 3.1, contained in BW64. I'm puzzled by the spinbutton value. Please make sure that, when starting the dialog, the delay listed in the spinbutton matches the currently set delay. You hardcoded it t...

Hello @MochiMoppel ScreenSaver Control 2.2 (radky) this is the original script and i made huge changes like i try to explain the best way i could in the 1 post. My question was: Where can I find the original "ScreenSaver Control 2.2 (radky)"? I can't find it. A link, please. "Though ...

MochiMoppel

AntonioPt Which of radky's scripts did you modify? I can't find the original script and therefore can't figure out which part of your script is your modification and which is radky's original. The script looks OK in GTK3 but shows problems described by mikewalsh when run with gtk2dialog. Fixing it ...

Did try the schutdown change to pupmode 12 in rc.d/pupstate but indeed, after reboot, I again get the question to make a save folder. Of course. That's because you didn't save anything. I only tried to answer your question, how to do it in principle. I didn't elaborate on the different ways to make...

MochiMoppel

I am running bookwormpup64 without a save folder. So do I. This means that you are running in PUPMODE 5. If you change to PUPMODE 12 before shutdown or reboot you will not be asked to create a savefile/folder. The PUPMODE is stored in the file /etc/rc.d/PUPSTATE . I use a command to do this ( sed -...

@MochiMoppel: I was going to add some MIME types to the main desktop file, but noticed strange things happening. Those strange things you describe happen in Firefox, but you wrote earlier Well, both UExtract and PackIt are meant primarily as ROX right-click apps, so there's no postponing anything, ...

Vim is my editor. Its sane syntax highlighting and line/block operations on XML files is an advantage when I edit medium/large gtkdialogs. OK, in this case XML style comments make sense, though the problem of backward compatibility remains. Syntax highlighting and line/block operations are also sup...
