Hi everybody, I'm using fossapup. On the desktop (lower right corner) is a network traffic display. It shows the traffic of the interfaces eth0 and wlan0. Now I'm connected via the interface usb0. Is there a way to configure this desktop display to show traffic data from the interface usb0 instead ...

Thank you, both!

And as PPMupdatedatabase calls it with 'exec':
exec pkg ru

no sub shell is opened and it looks as if 'busybox init' would have called 'pkg' directly. And so I couldn't find it with 'ps'.

Thanks again!

Hi everyone, after booting /usr/sbin/pkg (calling then /usr/local/petget/0setup) automatically starts to download repository index files. I'd like to prevent automatic download as I have a slow connection. I rather prefer to update petget manually at need. I'm running fossapup64 9.5, a frugal ...

I think a lot of issues are fixed, if it is the newest or newer one in the specific Puppy version. Puppy versions released in the last year or two should have newer versions ...

The intel_pstate option shouldn't be needed, as that only toggles the intel_pstate driver, Intel's own driver to be disabled and instead use the default acpi-cpufreq driver. (Also this will have no effect on any ThinkPad that does not use an Intel CPU) Also you forgot to close with a " . It solved ...

add: intel_pstate=disable acpi_osi="!Windows 2012 at the end of you grub menu, fixed it for me :) I had the same problem and it fixed it for me too, thank you! I have a Lenovo thinkpad T530 with Intel processor. But I found this hint a little bit too short. I'm using fossapup64 and for that ...
