Re: change from pupmode 13?

@amethyst I was looking at the wrong file. I added pmedia=ataflash to lickmenu.lst and puppy no longer saves the savefile unless I tell it to.

Thanks for your help!

Re: How to prevent Puppy from automatically saving session when booting from HD

Thank You @backi and @amethyst !

Its been some time since I've worked under the hood of Puppy and I'm a bit rusty. I was a bit confused bu the menu.lst file since mine is called lickmenu.lis but once I figured this out it all came together!

Thanks again!

Re: change from pupmode 13?

I realize this is an old thread, but I'd also like to run fossapup64 from my HD in PUPMODE=13. NOT PUPMODE=12 so I can choose whether or not to save the session. I tried to fool the system, as instructed by mikeslr, but i'm unclear where to add pmedia=atahd as my grub.cfg (displayed below) says pmed...

Vol up, Vol down & Mute buttons don't work in Fossapup64

I can't get the physical Vol up, Vol down & Mute buttons to work on my Dell e6430 when running Fossapup64. They worked fine when running xenialpup64 and older distros and they worked out of the box. Both distros find the same sound card on my laptop, and except for the button thing, sound works ...
