Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Using Puppy installer gui I can format to ext4 grub4dos but it wont boot on fujitsu laptop. The only one that boots on the fujitsu is Fat32 GPT UEFI partition. Problem is I dont know how to expand the save file past 4gb that way.

What specific version of BookwormPup64 are you using???????

The latest version is 10.0.9

It does have some improvements and bug fixes from older versions.

I am using 10.0.9

I'm struggling to understand this. I'll have to think about it.

Maybe this will help:

I discovered that when BWUP6410.0.9 is mounted to anything but sdb1 I get problems. Now it is mounted to sdb1 and everything is working.

I'm not sure what I did because it used to work. Using bwpup64 I see the popup saying "terminal" and "browser" when hovering over. When clicked nothing happens.
Right click also does nothing.
Also the launchers on the desktop for File, Term and Browse dont work.

Leafpad also prints the paths of multiple files dropped into it, one per line.

Vektor

I tried L3afpad and unfortunately it put them all on the same line

In linux mint and lite and Ubuntu I can select all the files in a folder. Edit>copy and then into a libreoffice calc sheet edit>paste and I get all of the file paths. One in each row.
How can I do this in Puppy Linux?

I made a relative link and was able to choose that folder from shotwell edit preferences however the torrent file gave permission denied error.

# shotwell

I'm using bwpup 64 on a USB and I have no issues on my HP laptop. The issue happens on the Dell Inspiron laptop.

Also when I
# synaptic
Nothing happens, Task Manager says synaptic is using 25% cpu

I am booting BWPUP from a USB. I can use ROX file manager to read and write to the sda4. Transmission can only read and write to spot. I get permission denied.
What can I do so that transmission has the same priviledge as ROX or even better so that sda4 mounts to the spot folder?

A fresh install solved the issue using the suggest terminal commands. Unfortunately I could not figure out how to resolve it and keep all of my settings and apps.

"sudo apt install default-jre
sudo apt install libreoffice-java-common"

I installed default-jre with synaptic and downloaded /home/spot/Downloads/jre-8u431-linux-x64.tar.gz and extracted it to /opt
what file do I need to find and where do I find it so that libreoffice has JRE?[attachment=0]Screenshot(1).png

The available version in synaptic is RClone 1.60
Someone at the RClone forum said I "need to use the latest official version which is v1.67.0"
How can i get this version for puppy linux?

Why is my system so slow and using 100% CPU. I was better using Fossapup and Bookwormpup on a fat 32. Now I am using BWpup on Ext 4. Not sure if that is related... I'd attached a screenshot of FTOP

Using Bookworm Pup64 and at start up everything works. Then all of a sudden the plugged in usb keyboard and mouse do not work. Lights are still on the devices.

My usb Keyboard and mouse work after startup and then after a while they stop. I can see them in hardware info and the lights are still on. The built in trackpad and keyboard work.
