loldigox Good job on documenting your problem. can't open 'modules.dep': No such file or directory I've checked the ISO and modules.dep is there. I've tested rc3 on half dozen computers (all old) but none with touch screens which seems related. I'm guessing you booted from a USB flash drive to do ...

Ok, try this, .doc in first post. If you open in LO Writer, you can right click an image, then choose Copy, then paste somewhere. You can also right click and choose Save, then save the image out to a file. Let me know if you want the other PDF's as .doc.

Thanks

These are being created with Libreoffice Writer in .doc format. I can upload that which should be easier to manipulate both the text and images. Let me know what you think.

Thanks

@rockedge

Try this.

edit: pdf removed, see first post

@rockedge

Had to do a revision as Draft1 had a non-existent file reference on the bottom. My bad.

Thanks

@rockedge

Aha, wondered how you did it. If that is easier be glad to submit in PDF since it is easier for me too.

Thanks

Good to hear it is going well, thanks for the update. I will probably be doing one more release with the last of the security patches and a couple of hotkey assist.

Thanks

Hope that was not a lot of trouble.

Welcome to Puppy. We'll need to know what version of Puppy you are using and a little about your hardware. Take a look at this post viewtopic.php?t=218 . The program Anydesk should do what you want and it will run in both LInux and MS Windows.

Welcome to Puppy Linux. You are right, there is a huge amount of information in the forum and finding what you need is not easy. In just the last two weeks we have been consolidating some of this into the top forum section named "Getting Started and System Requirements" so you should start reading ...

This was originally written on how to setup a file server, but would also apply to just creating a file share to access with an Android device. Puppy Slacko 6.3 is used in the example, but the same tools and method should work for any of the new 64 bit Puppies. Slacko 6.3 would be better on older ...

You can also setup a samba file share on your pc and access it with an Android file manager like Total Commander or ES File Explorer over wifi. Lets you do both file transfers and media streaming, I use this method to transfer photos or access media content. . Only drawback is the Android is always ...

rockedge The "Your First Boot" (original title) topic is about both CD and USB booting for the first time. The title changed to "Booting from a CD with a Legacy Boot Configuration" makes it sound like it's only about CD's. Lots of computers out there that are legacy/MBR and USB bootable. I own ...

Friendly Bionic rc2a is now available, see the first post for the link.

Minor changes:
-add grub2config-2.0.1.pet which is referenced in the help files
-edit help files to add swap file notes

Hi Rock

This topic in Getting Started and System Requirements is missing the two images.

Thanks

@Feek

You are right, it will be covered in a topic named "File Management"

Thanks

@rockedge

Thanks for working on the project. Would be great if Puppy was also known as the easiest Linux to adopt.

Just as a side note, old chromebooks can make excellent small, light Puppy laptops. Here in the U.S the schools and others are retiring thousands of older models as their ChromeOS reaches "end of life".
