I just liked to have it because of the access to Debian repositories. Every once in a while it is helpful to access that to install an app quickly that would be a big deal on Dunfell. @Airdale could you share how you bring up buster in a container? Sure thing! EasyDunfell comes with a buster contai...

Exciting release! I think that consolidating the download folders will help keep things "Easy" for new users. I was just wondering if anybody else has had any trouble running the Buster container on this release. I've tried it on a couple of installations and just cannot get it to run on 3...

I used the EasyUpdate script to update from 3,1,11 to 3.1.13.

However, after the update I could no longer open the EasyOS Buster container.

I rolled back to 3.1.11 and the Buster container opens up like anything.

I tried the allendiggity kernel for Wireguard before (used Mozilla with Mozwire to download a configuration file). Worked with EasyOS without a problem. Now apparently Easy will be compatible with Wireguard without having to update the kernel. However, I'm not sure that you can download a Wireguard ...

Thought I would try the Zoom thing again on the latest Dunfell 3.1.10 So I tried Zoom on Firefox in a container. No luck. Zoom couldn't see the built in laptop cam, usb webcam.... nothing Zoom on Firefox not in a container... works perfectly I tried the built in microphone and webcam. I added a usb ...

The equivalent of the puppy savefile is the "save folder": mnt/wkg/.session Copy it to a usb-stick with EasyOS installed: # cp -a mnt/wkg/.session /mnt/<usb stick partition2>/DOTsession remove file 'fsckme.flg' from DOTsession folder. Bootup the usb-stick on the other PC, and copy the fol...

I have been using EasyOS Dunfell as my main OS recently. It has been a little more complex to get set up than previous puppies and Quirkys, but right now I have it set up just right. Printing and scanning works. Sound is ok. I have ProtonVPN set up and working. I have a few other apps added that I u...

I haven't done it yet though. I have two questions.... #1 sounds like any personal files in the old home folder disappear? Easy fix for this one.... I can just back them up. Just wanted to be sure I understood the above posts correctly. #2 I use a lot of Barry's other containerized OS's and usually...

So... just to wrap things up. Like sszIndian.... when I tried to use the old Tarpup HPLIP pet to set up my printer - the scanner worked, but not the printer. Sometimes it would work once or twice intermittently, but never consistently. After a reboot it would never work. Pretty much exactly the same...

Airdale

Upgraded Easy OS Dunfell HPLIP is installed out of the box. Added a printer via the CUPS interface and my HP 3050a All-in one printer works without a hitch. The flip side is that now the scanner doesn't work. Xsane cannot find the scanner. When running HP-scan from the command line I get an error me...

Exciting news!

Thank you Barry.

I had "filter failure" crop up with later versions of easy. not specifically with hplip, but you might look at the log to see if If your system will show a warning in /tmp/var/log/cups error_log 'pstoraster not found' you'll have do add a link from gstoraster to pstoraster in /usr/lib/cup...

Airdale

@sszindian Here is a quick test for hplip. Open a terminal and run: /usr/lib/cups/filter/hpcups If the hpcups filter is installed correctly, you will probably get a "51:ERROR" message (because the filter is not designed to run from the command line). If it is NOT installed correctly, you ...

Airdale

Curious - has anybody been sucessful in installing HPLIP in EasyOS Dunfell? If so, how? Did you have to compile it from source? I have an old HP Deskjet 3050a that I have used over several generations of puppy/quirky/easyOS Buster. The preinstalled Gutenprint drivers usually do not work with it but ...

Airdale

Worked like charm. Perfect.

Thank you.

Airdale

OK I understand now. Thanks!!

Hi, I have been using Easy OS off a USB drive for the last several versions. However, I just installed a frugal install of Easy OS 2.6.1 to a linux partition on my hard drive that contains a Ubuntu install. I configured Grub2 and it boots up great. My question is.... Easy no longer asks for a passwo...
