Bionic Pup 64

I am tempted to try Fat Dog

I have a 64 bit Acer it did not work well with Tahr Pup, I switched to Bionic Pup,,, seems good, volume control could be smoother.

Sorry the one eyed dog did not behave.
Some times a pc just will not workwith an OS,,,or vice versa.
Right now I cannot find the perfect OS,, I using Mint 19.3 as Mint 20, LMDE4 do not work,,,
If I can get my dog to print to network brother printer,,,,I will give it the big doghouse

It seems a real shame to have to report this, but I'm giving up on Bionicpup64. And NOT for want of trying, either...

The analogy I use is that the "full" distros are an assembly line, Puppy is a ...

SLACKO on a thumb drive, very useful tool for fixing larger systems, fixing thumb drives,, formatting drives,,,
Then I tried TAHR PUP. Full install,,, was OK but I lost interest.
Then Bionic Puppy came along, I still go back to Slacko for repairs.
But Bionic has hit my wants 4 out of 6.
And the ...

I was given an old pc,, I took the hard drive out, transplanted to my big PC.
I did a full instal on this 120 gb HD.
It lives with 2 other big Linux systems,,, grub works very well, so does Puppy.

I have a large BROTHER hL L6200DN, ,might be puppy just no like my printer......
I will try USB,, if it say no,then I know I have bad printer.
And yesI tried it on 3 different computers, I run Linux 19.3 as main distro, it prints with or with out a wire, in fact all of them
I use it for business ...

I have a Bible Study that works in the bigger distros, but not in Bionic Pup Wine

It works Well for me, but it is always best to do a Puppy back-up before adding new software!

I like to edit pics, I will try what you said.

Can Bionic Pup be made to see network printers?

Thank s. Puppy no offer much for the eyes

Do I need virus protection with BIONIC PUP.?

I have been using Bionic Pup full install for quite a while,, no file corruptions yet,, other than the fact its just plain different, I'm quite impressed.
See, Linux MINT 20, the latest Ubuntu,and LMDE4 all have terrible issues that force me to use my full install of Puppy.
Only place it falls short ...
