Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

I found the problem and, thankyou for the advice!
"Headgear" didn't supply a power supply instead a cable with 2 USB connections; I picked the wrong one (it had no signal connections). Am using a "wall wart" instead of the "Frankenstien cable"..
Consider the problem resolved. Watched a DVD...

Should I see an icon pop up when I power up the DVD? (I don't.)
Plugged into USB port.. It worked on Puppy 5.28 a few years ago and was set aside.
Is the player suddenly bad or is there something I need to do with the Bionic Puppy?
