You could mount /dev/fd0 to /mnt/fd0, drag /mnt/fd0 to the desktop and then set the icon of /mnt/fd0 to something like /usr/local/lib/X11/pixmaps/floppy48.png

How can I get the variable name of that install folder (called dpupbw6410.0.9 here) so it can be more generic for the different versions made?
Try

Re: Does anyone have a fix for the right-click file handling error in Rox?
This happens to me on my old puppy-4.10 server.
If a file is selected and then I right click on a different file, the original file is still the active one.
I have learned to click into an empty space in rox before right clicking another file.
I do not have this issue on newer pups.

I am trying this in Vanilla Dpup 9.3.14
It fired up and I set it to 60 and it seems to work but......
When I check it, I get this:
Code: Select all
~#cat /etc/sysctl.conf
vm.swappiness = 60
and this:
Code: Select all
~$ cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
