Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Thank you for explaining this to me

I guess the application really is for developers who want a small file size to distribute their applications.

I did try it out as it came as binary. So your right that it saves a little space in the Save file.

@mikeslr

I did load your SFS and when I unloaded it, I was informed that it would delete itself.

Is that correct?

LOL, I had to download it again and put it away in a safe place.

Amethyst

Will the application also take the dependencies/icons etc as well?

Sorry, I haven't downloaded this just yet, but will do soon.

Can anyone let me know if the Bluetooth connection application works perfectly?

Hi all I must have read a large number of threads in the forum on how to install the OS onto a USB-HDD. I have an old laptop drive which has been gathering dust and thought it would be more useful to me instead of using even older USB flash drive :lol: One of many questions, I would like to know if ...

@williams2

Thanks for the tip!!
I have added it to my boot file.

Hi there

Can someone let me know if it is a good idea to compress an executable binary/file using UPX before creating a PET application?

Thanks in advance

Hi all

I repacked the latest build of the Palemoon browser from my PC.

Please let me know if it works for you

Palemoon-31.3.1(64-bit).pet approx 37mb

@geo_c

Thanks for the update
I did notice that only in a few folders there were single icons eg shutdown. But did not think too much about it.

Good work as always!!

@houndstooth

Is tethering allowed by your telecoms provider?

Okay then. Thanks for letting us know.

What are the command parameters?

Hi user1234

I have an external USB HDD which does not show up as a drive icon on FossaPup64 (PMount)

I do know it is available to me.

I thought I could use your application to unmount it until I decide to use it a future date.

I got an error message to install an additional dependency.

ozsouth Thank you again. It's just exactly what I wanted :thumbup2: I foolishly added a static FFMpeg binary and it used up a lot of my Save file. Forcing me to increase the size again. I use my OS for browsing and multimedia playback mostly. So, I don't plan on adding additional software. Your ker...

geo_c I just grabbed your $$Bling$$ , thank you for this compilation and for making it so easy to customise and I am sure will give my OS a brand new feel :thumbup2: peebee I have never used Slackware before and I did read up on it yesterday evening and I was aware that it has a large repository of...

Hi there I wanted to know if it would be possible to merge these together to create a new Adrv and replace my existing original one? Would there be a benefit in doing this? **Edit just re-read rockedge's Read Me First post " When Puppy boots up, the compressed Puppy Linux files are copied into ...

Hi Sofiya

I feel embarrassed about the comment I made regarding the unknown characters Apologies if you took offence.

Doh! Of course unrecognised fonts would of course look strange to me.

Thank you again for the fix

Have a great week ahead.

@sonny

Thank you for taking the time to do this for me. It is really appreciated.

For anyone else who needs it, grab it before it expires

@rockedge

That's brilliant news. That's for letting me know and thank you too!!

Sofiya, bless you!!

Thank you so much for sharing. It worked first time.

I have to admit, I was a bit unsure as where to put your file but managed to work it out.

There are some unknown characters in the text. I am guessing their your native language??

I seem to have encounter a problem using this application. I have tried using the 3 options for terminal available. Still spits out an error message. If I use the command via terminal it works fine. I would have liked to have used this application as I do find it useful. Am I missing something obvio...

Hi there Sofiya Ahhhh, that makes a lot of sense now to me :D Thank you for the offer, that's kind of you. However, I think I will stay put for the moment. It has been a huge learning curve already and I dislike having to spend too long getting back to normal. Only just begun remembering to make inc...

Hi all I don't feel very qualified to suggest a particular build of Puppy as I have only just begun to use it. I only choose my particular build as it had the 64 in the title and when looking at the forum I could see that the subsection was active. I did not realise that it was based on an older bui...

Hi Sofiya You do seem to know an awful lot about customisation and it's very different all the time. Is this due to multiple Oses that you use? I did want to ask you a question on how you updated your Conky settings here: https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=65611#p65611 What I would like to...

Thanks smokey01 for this application

As in an earlier message, I too have some ancient USB flash drives lying around and now I can see if there still usable.

**EDIT

Also used it to check out the speed of external USB HDD drives. Worked in exactly the same way

Hi ozsouth Thank you so much for sharing this with us and for all the previous compilations. It's Sunday here and a bit of lazy day, so I decided I would try to update the kernel in my stock FossaPup64. I followed your instructions, but was a bit unsure as to needed the FDRV file. Also, I could not ...

xdiskusage is a user-friendly program to show you what is using up all your disk space. 64-bit static binary only. The arrow keys may be used to move the selected directory (shown with a red box) around. There is a pop-up menu (use the right mouse button) with other options for changing the display...

Hi Boof

Digging around a little, I think there are a number of options available:

fredx181 Firstly, let me thank you for sharing the code with us. I did change the downloader as yt-dlp can use an external one. I tried Wget & Wget2 and for some reason Aria2c worked best for me. I did try the " Quality " option and it worked really well (today). I also tried a playli...

Hi there I found this script which I find useful to clearing up RAM once I have closed down a number of applications. Only tested in FossaPup64. Credit to Philipp Klaus for the script. #!/bin/bash ## Bash Script to clear cached memory on (Ubuntu/Debian) Linux ## By Philipp Klaus ## see <http://blog....

There is a CorePup subsection onboard.

ISO's are found here:

Thank you again for taking the time out to read and reply back to me.

You did give me some advice and shared knowledge.

That's cool
