I do not have a 'Registered Account', all my uploads have been provided like this here on the forum.

@sonny

Mediafire only host files for 14 days and then delete them if they are not downloaded.

Maybe I should start using EasyUpload instead

sonny Thanks for sharing the script :thumbup: The only issue is that it places the binary in the wrong location . A quick check shows me it hasn't been stripped either :lol: ........ what's a few extra kb's :roll: :mrgreen: https://i.ibb.co/Fn34Qtm/Screenshot.png The binary should be installed in /...

rockedge has kindly provided a new kernel, so I needed an application to compile to check AUFS was working :thumbup2: https://i.ibb.co/nzpYSDn/Screenshot.png https://i.ibb.co/sRG9GFf/Screenshot-1.png curl-8.6.0 - Tool for transferring data from or to a server using URLs https://www.mediafire.com/fi...

@rockedge

Are you planning on sharing the kernel with us as an independent download?

Or do we need to download F96-CE_5-alpha4 ?

Still testing this???

@bigpup

Thanks for this

@jamesbond

That's a little depressing as I have some fairly large micro-sd cards (256gb) which have come out of old phones as I have replaced them.

Guess, I can find use for them in something else.

I am not a computer geek living at home with no bills or responsibilities. I don't have much time

Everyone here is volunteering their time and knowledge for free

Download the plugin and leave it zipped up. https://plugins.calibre-ebook.com/ Then in the GUI Load the zip file by Preferences -> Advanced -> Plug-ins -> Load plugin from file Alternatively, I did provide a PET for Fossapup64 ........... it should be compatible with BW64. It has the desktop entries...

@JusGellin

Glad you have it working at last.

If you use the --no-sandbox option, you will be running as root and therefore be able to install the plugins.

Remove the option and run the application as 'Spot'.

Hopefully that will work, goodluck

Nautilus File Manager is for the Gnome desktop.

As I have been told previously here on the forum, Fossapup64 ≠ Ubuntu Focal Fossa

gyrog Thank you once again for taking the time to explain it clearly to me. So, if the device was formatted to exFAT would this alter the restriction? The application chooses the default as FAT32. https://i.ibb.co/XJnB28M/Screenshot.png Also, can you explain how many Pet files begin to make it inef...

@JusGellin

You can try in terminal:

run-as-spot calibre

or if you have an existing .desktop entry, edit/add the following to it:

Exec=calibre --no-sandbox

p310don Yes, I have encoded videos from the VCD era to the present day. Admittedly, using Windows (VirtualDub Mod etc) and not Linux to do so. From TV/Satellite caps, ripping physical media, encoding from one format to another to be displayed on different devices eg DVD to console/handheld. Also, h...

gyrog Thanks for getting back to me and offering a solution. I might have got myself slight confused re: save file/folder I only use StickPup USB stick installer for ISO to flashdrive installations; has always worked.

MochiMoppel :lol: :lol: :lol: fantastic observation :thumbup2: rockedge any mention of the Ramones is always good in my book :thumbup2: Grey loved this Visage track so much at the time, I bought it as a 12" vinyl, still have it :thumbup2: So for both of you .......... this is ' tongue in cheek...

I use JRB's JammyPup which did not come with the APT package manager. However, User1234 did compile an ISO with this included as a SFS. Personally I do not use the APT package manager and prefer to compile my own applications as and when needed. Admittedly, I do tend to keep my core applications up ...

Personally, I feel that if a member wishes to take 'time out' for themselves then this should not be questioned. Hopefully, it gives time to reflect on the situation and make a decision if they wish to participate or not. Members should be able to 'drop in and drop out' and get involved if they want...

@JakeSFR

I agree with you, I seldom use the application myself but do have installed for 'occasional' use.

As always, great app

instant recovery if one makes a mistake

I know that it is sensible to always have a recovery plan .... just in case of those days when it decides to go wrong!!

A scheduled backup option would be useful especially at the beginning when you are experimenting and trying out new applications.

@wiak

Sorry to hear your bad news.

I sincerely hope that you and the family do manage to overcome the present situation.

Take care

You can install the different packages provided. If they do not work, check for error messages and if informs you of missing files. Then use the apropriate package manager to install the applications and try again. There are different Puppy builds for Ubuntu and Debian for x64 and x32. A description...
