Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

I can confirm that the tree-2.1.1.pet, from here, works in EasyOS 5.7. I haven't yet booted EasyOS 5.8 (I have an AMD A4 7300 processor) but I expect tree will work there too. Any chance that tree and copy-fast could be included in 5.8? They are small programs that I find useful.

To get the full version install it with apt or do as I did and use the binary from another pup with the full version.

Would you tell us which Puppy has the full version of tree, and maybe how big is the binary? Thanks.

I clicked the "Update" icon on the 5.7 desktop and it updated to 5.8! Wow, the "delta" file is some 680 MB.

Uh, what's this about? Did you mean to post it in a thread somewhere?

A week or so ago, long access times were the norm for me. I replaced my cable modem and, using Puppy's tools, disconnected and reconnected. Access is much quicker now.

Each partition should show as an icon on the desktop. So you should be seeing at least 5 drive icons. Do you know what filesystems the partitions are formatted with?

What about MPXY's post here?

Good point, Clarity. For instance, there's Tails. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njmhwz1R-Xg

Would it work if the /mnt directory were removed? Just thinking in the dark.

I assume you mean Bionic Puppy can't see your smart phone. How are you connecting your smart phone to the computer?
Have you tried connecting a flash drive directly to the smart phone?

Rather then move or block the files, could they be renamed?

Note the clear case, to prevent concealing contraband.

That's nice. Where did you find libgtklext-x11-1.0.so.0?

So you can actually get into the BIOS, you just can't change any of the settings?

What do you mean, the BIOS is locked? Do you mean you need a password to get into the BIOS? If that's the case, you might be able to reset the BIOS to its original factory settings, which don't require a password.

In EasyOS it's Menu -> Desktop -> EasyJWM configure JWM -> Tray -> Time format. I don't know if FatDog has EasyJWM.

Are you running EasyOS or any version of Puppy?

You mean the EasyOS .img file?

Here's an excellent YouTube video describing the 'Ken Burns Effect' and how to make it happen. It's basically just zooming and panning within the still frame.

I'm afraid I'm at a loss. Is there another computer, perhaps a laptop, with Bluetooth that you could use the keyboard on to see if the same thing happens, or a different Bluetooth keyboard lying around that you could use, just for a test?

Have you checked the BIOS for Bluetooth settings?

Was the new cursor too large until you changed the screen resolution? And what about the image in your first post?

Is this a laptop with built-in bluetooth, or a desktop with a bluetooth dongle?
