Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

I did copy the save folder from FatDog64 900-alpha to 900-beta and it worked fine. The main change to 900-alpha was a firefox installation with extensions and my settings. Also, you can drop the gtk3 installation (and pulse audio?) from the get firefox script.

I found a problem using the Puppy UEFI tool to burn FD64 900 to a USB stick. The tool makes the minimum partition size of 512 MB which is too small. Changing the size to 5120 MB in the script fixed it. It's hard to buy a quality USB stick below 32 GB.

But the link points to FatDog64 814. Is it official now?

Have a metered data connection from hotspotting my phone so trying to limit total data. Firefox with:

NoScript
uBlock Orgin
ImageBlock
Brave Search

I keep a set of .xpi files from the extensions folder to install these offline for each new Firefox.

It is a purely personal choice and centered seems to remember the last browser window size. Everyone should pick what suits them and @Overdrive5 has given us a way to make that choice.

My choice for Firefox is to clear all history but passwords when closed - certainly not remember tabs.

Thanks.

Update:
My browser is set to block fonts so the thumbsup emoti was invisible.

No, it's a win-win game. See: viewtopic.php?t=8161 If you put the lines from Overdrive5's post in jwmrc-personal with "centered" replacing "maximized" as he suggested, the browser will retain its last size.

I was one complaining so will vote for not-maximized.

The best idea is to retain the window size when it was last closed. That way if you close the browser maximized (or half sized) it will re-open maximized (or half sized). Even the hated Microsoft OS does it this way.

To fix the Firefox browser size see viewtopic.php?t=8161

Sorry, that response sounded wrong. But I have little Linux experience myself so it would be like the blind leading the blind. Getting into your printer settings could mess with your Windows printing and I do not wish to create new problems for you.

Then do no try it. It doesn't sound like you know how to set your printer to a fixed ip address.

Firefox opens in a "cascade" position offset from the top left corner without any command.Your "centered" choice better for browsing.

Glad you posted since I looked in vain for why Firefox was always full screen.

Thank you!

This also works for S15Pup and likely others. The size of the Firefox window when you exit Firefox will reappear, centered, on the next launch. You need to restart xwin after changing this file.

I wonder if it will remember size and position if the lines are commented out?

For .mkv video files changing the open with from:

defaultvideoplayer "s@"

to:

defaultmediaplayer "s@"

starts the player when clicking on the .mkv file.

That was it!

Thank you
