Installed wine in slacko Puppy, where is it?

Hi all,

Hopefully this is an easy one. I gave up on using fossapup and installed slacko puppy. Much better for me so far. I tried installing "wine" from https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=103

Re: Installed Fossapup64, getting error on boot

Installed Fossapup64, getting error on boot

Hi all,

I just installed puppy linux yesterday. It has been going relatively well, except whenever I turn on my computer I get this error message during boot.

The first boot was fine, and I rebooted the system several times without saving the session, and it worked fine. But once I did my first ...

Re: Anki on fossapup 64

Hi all,

regarding my last post, it seems like someone on fedora 35 ran into the same issue with the popup window, and was able to get rid of the message with "Exec=env QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--no-sandbox" anki %f"

Re: Anki on fossapup 64

That worked! One slight annoyance is that a pop-up window that says "please use file>import to import this file" shows up every time I open it. I just close it, and it doesnt seem to affect anything. I'll have more time to test it out later. Thanks for all the help!

Anki not working on Fossapup 64

Hi all,

I just installed fossapup 64 on my computer. I am trying to use the flashcard app Anki but the download from puppy package manager is not working. There are two other posts about this problem, one from 2013 and one from 2019. Neither of the solutions work (seems outdated). I'm curious if ...
