Re: Welcome to phpBB3
I'm not sure how rockedge has done this, but it definitely doesn't recognise my old Murga account. So, as y'all can see, I've had to create a new one. It only wanted to accept the name as you see; capitals were out, spaces were out, underscores were out.....
Wonder of wonders, I got the confirmation e-mail through to the 'Spam' folder of my Gmail a/c.....but I have had this a/c for something like getting on for 17/18 years. Maybe it does only work with older Gmail acounts; I'd love to know how Google have changed things in newer ones, I really would.
------------------------------------
Out of curiosity, I tried creating a second one. It didn't like 'MikeWalsh' - said there was one like it already, though there's some capitals in there this time. However, 'MiqWalsh' has worked.....BUT; NO confirmation e-mail to a GMX a/c..!
So; still 'teething troubles', perhaps..? I dunno.
@Fred:-
Did it work for you with your old Murga credentials.....or did you, too, have to register anew? I realise this is only for 'testing purposes' ATM; I'm curious as to what'll happen if this goes ahead for real, y'know?
I guess we'll find out!!
(Slimjet, SRWare Iron and Palemoon all use this exact same software version, so I'm already totally comfortable with it. Nice one, rockedge.)

Re: Welcome to phpBB3
Ah, you mean without registering, login with my Murga credentials ? No. didn't try that, just registered a new account with same name as on Murga.Mike wrote:@Fred:-

Re: Welcome to phpBB3
I shall stress, however, that this is still very much in the 'experimental & test' stages.....

Re: Welcome to phpBB3
I registered using my gmail account, then promptly forgot all about it...
Upon checking the murga forum this morning, saw the thread and remembered and found the email in the spam folder.

Came here, joined as new member, was sent an activation email, clicked the link, it worked, and here I am.
How's that for a 73-year-old?

@ Sylvander:-
I see I'm not the only one who's noticed this; I'm just wondering if it is "maintenance", or if the site has finally, permanently "gone down"...... There's been a lot of discussion, recently, as to whether J de M is in fact still around. You've probably noticed!
A lot of stuff will be lost if it has.
I wonder how many others are wondering the same thing.....and whether they'll find their way over here? I guess time will tell.

I'd been following the thread with interest.
I hope the Puppy Forums don't do what the PC Guide did...which was to go down "For maintenance", and never re-appeared.
I'm shocked that the Puppy Forums closed without warning...
And before it's content could be copied over to here.
And will the members [like BK] join here?

Re: Welcome to phpBB3
Time will tell if any attempts to retrieve a mysql export of the murga forum database to incorporate the original into this version of the forum prove to be successful. I have not given up hope that a data transfer can occur.
Also keeping tabs on the SEO or "Google Rank" that this forum is generating. I am thinking that as the the murga forum stays off line that the Google algorithm will push this forums posts higher on the pages, hopefully the top of page 1 so it will be easier to find. As more user's start to use the site and more user's register this will also improve this forums Google rankings
In theory.......

Re: Welcome to phpBB3
It was through the Old Forum that I became familiar with XenialPup 7.5, however, I'm not succeeding in getting any info regarding my XenialPup installation. I'm seeking to locate the original location of "Xenial Pup 7.5-uefi.iso"; can anyone please help me out?

Re: Welcome to phpBB3
Well, that was SUPER fast! Thanks for the info. My reason for starting back at square 1 was that the thumb drive which contains my XenialPup seems to have gotten itself screwed up - not getting/finding its .sfs file. My project is to get the iso, reformat the thumb drive, and re-install XenialPup (I sort of like its simplicity) on the thumb drive. Many Thanks.

Re: Welcome to phpBB3
I've moved your topic over at BleepingComputer from the "How-to and Tutorials" section across to the main Linux forum. I sent you a short PM explaining what I've done.
I've also replied in the topic. Now then; what's all this about "Can't attach an image", mate? I thought we sorted all that out ages ago, hmm?
Anyway, look; if you want to ask about your issues here on the new forum, for gawd's sakes start a new topic in the appropriate place - either 'Beginners' or 'Users (frequent fliers)', please. This is early days for this forum, and we don't want it getting untidy right from day one..!
A screenshot of gParted, showing the contents of your drive will be helpful. I can't for the life of me remember what you've got on sda1, so when you start a new topic, just re-explain all this for the benefit of others, willya? Thanks!
Mike.
