Today, I have tried Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon (Vanessa) and no problemo! :thumbup2:

Alternate solution:
Download FTP server app on Play Store and run the app
Then accessing the phone on Puppy using gFTP using the parameters given by the app

Re: Running elogind on Puppy

@mistfire, In 2020 I posted about an experimental pulseaudio subsystem for Fatdog64-811. It includes a working elogind built on Fatdog for Fatdog. Fatdog uses busybox login, and no PAM. Because my focus was pulseadio I didn't test elogind extensively, but I recall that I was able to connect to puls...

By the way, you will run into issues later on. I got elogind to work perfectly in dpup, but it just doesn't work for applications running as spot. Puppy is the only distro where you have two users "logged on" simultaneously like this. elogind and the idea of environment variables added by...

You need PAM+libpam-elogind for elogind to work, but Puppy uses busybox login.

Slackware has PAM and installed it however when I swapped busybox login with login binary from util-linux, threw PERMISSION DENIED error message and the Puppy wont login on tty1. Any ideas how to solve this?

Running elogind on Puppy

elogind is the standalone systemd-free session and seat manager. It allows to run apps that depend on systemd such as rustdesk, teamviewer without systemd at all. Slackware implements this because they're using sysvinit. I tried this on Puppy however it always shows "no session" it means i...

Re: Trying to make Anydesk 6.2 run

Try this, run rustdesk, if connecting to remote fails then read the log files /var/log . It might get some clues why it fails.

Also check if libssl 1.2.1 was installed.

QuickPup64 was able to update packages from upstream slackware current repo. But use it under your own risk. Just to Menu > Setup/System > Get Package Updates
