Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Maybe... But I suspect it's because I had Gimp installed using PPM and then uninstalled it to use the sfs version. It must have left over some remnants from the previous install which prevented the sfs from working properly If you kept your old save. You can use Pfind, to do a search in it, for ...

I want to go down the rabbit hole, trying to figure out what is wrong, in your save :thumbup2: :D :ugeek: :o :lol: Come on! Keep in mind, Fossapup64 9.xxxx is still in final testing and bug fixing. You may have discovered a bug :shock: :o :ugeek: Maybe... But I suspect it's because I had Gimp ...

I just booted with the ram only option and I was able to load the Gimp sfs and everything worked. I guess I have to back up my files and start over. Must be something wrong in my pupsave...
Thanks everyone for the help and input. Shloz

Thanks for testing it.
I have Fossapup64 installed on a usb stick. As far as I know I didn't do anything unusual. Everything is working perfectly including the LibreOffice 6.4 sfs I downloaded.

Did anyone test the gimp sfs in the repository? I can't get it to work... I posted about it in the Beginner's section viewtopic.php?f=2&t=463 but I figured maybe worthwhile to mention here.
Thanks.
Edit: turned out I had something wrong in my pupsave. All sorted now

I know, I tried unloading and then loading a few times, I also did a reboot. Like I wrote in my original post I wonder about the file structure in this sfs...

I tried. It says "no such command" or something similar to that.

I downloaded the sfs for Gimp from the Puppy repository at ibiblo. Took it from the /Fossapup64 folder. I can't do it through quickpet because I don't have a reliable internet connection where I am. So I used my phone to dl it directly. Problem: loading the sfs doesn't seem to do anything, it claims ...

@rockedge
I did it your way. Worked perfectly. Thanks!

Thanks! I'll try this soon.

How does one go about installing the new version? I downloaded the 64 bit version and extracted it. It contains a folder 'palemoon' and a few sub folders. In 'palemoon' there's an executable file named 'palemoon' and a bunch of other files. When I click on 'palemoon' it opens the browser to the new ...

[mention]festus[/mention] Thanks, I tried your script and followed your setup. Problem is it wakes up immediately! It seems to suspend for a second and then wakes up. Any idea of what I can do to fix this? I never had problems with suspend in other distros or in Windows so I know it should work...

Maybe one day all software for linux will be made to run on all linux distributions and versions (one fits all). What a day for celebration that will be. Heh. 'Twould be nice, wouldn't it? :D Trouble is, most of these things seem to be written for modern hardware, pre-supposing powerful CPUs, large ...

I'm running Fossapup64 9.0.4, installed on a USB stick, Acer Aspire One D257 netbook with 2gb RAM I would love the option to suspend. On the other thread I started 666phlib pointed me to the script in /etc/acpi/actions/suspend.sh. Looking at that and the other scripts there it seems that suspend is ...

I wanted to install LibreOffice in Fossapup64, however the only internet I can access now is on my cellphone, so no way to get the sfs. Instead, I downloaded the LibreOffice appimage version, copied it into /root, checked the exec box in properties ... and it works! Just an FYI. Sorry if this is old ...

I finally got it to work using the blank icon. The drives icon was tricky because with every reboot it came back. I ultimately replaced the drive48.png with the blank icon and renamed it to drive48.png I now have a clean desktop with a hidden drives icon. Thanks!!!

Thanks for all the great ideas! Going to give the blank icon idea a try soon!

Thanks for the replies. I already exhausted all the options in the JWM manager but there aren't any options for the icons on the right just for the launch icons on the left. I'll check that systray config file when I get a chance. There isn't any option to totally remove drives icon. The only option ...

Using Bionic64 and mostly figured out how to customize the DE to my liking. A few questions... 1 Is there any way to get rid of the drives icon? 2 Ditto for the save icon? 3 Can I customize the tray icons that are on the right side such as battery indicator and volume etc.? 4. Is there any way to ...
