I apology as I am likely OT with this short message here but I wish to give it a little bit of visibility. I have been using *UNIX since more than 20 years and changed many desktop distros. I have fallen in love with puppy linux, its philosophy and its devs; despite I dont post very often in here , ...

I had seen that. it is an old app using old API , for security reasons neither my grapheneos phone nor I want to install it, but thanks for the message.

thank you very much for your kindness and availability. I believe AAC/mp4 audio files are rather common nowadays and would be, IMHO, wise to have the possibility to play them builtin, if this does not "cost" too much. A new (noob) user getting their first steps into (puppy) linux might be ...

Hi all. I have been an happy user of keepassx(c) since many years, both on desktop pc and mobile. Since several months I have discovered the great linux puppy community and been using BW64 since then. I am taking into consideration the idea of switching from keepassxc to figaro password manager 2 (a...

Hi, playing around with vanilla dpup 10.0.50 (x.51 found on github would not boot for some reason, the link on this forum redirect to the x.50 version; but this is OT in this post). Deadbeef 1.88 fails to play m4a audio files. Mpv played that file of course. I had to convert the .m4a audio file to a...

I own a recently bought gigabyte aorus gc-wbax210 wifi card. I cannot recall where but I read, before the purchace, that it fully supported linux but only by kernel 6.x. Every time I try a linux distro with the 4.x or 5.x kernel it is not recognized, whereas every distro with 6.x kernel it works out...

I apology. My alias list is very long and by mistake there was a lonely line with just "alias" , below the incriminating part .... alias ex () { if [ -f $1 ] ; then case $1 in *.tar.bz2) tar xjf $1 ;; *.tar.gz) tar xzf $1 ;; *.bz2) bunzip2 $1 ;; *.rar) rar x $1 ;; *.gz) gunzip $1 ;; *.tar)...

Hi, I am using the latest Vanilla Dpup 64-bit. If I set aliases into .bashrc every time I open the terminal all those aliases are printed out , it should not happen and I do not know how to fix the issue. I have used many linux distro and I always copy and paste my aliases >> .bashrc and this issue ...

Hi all,
I wanted to make a donations to the puppy linux community but I can only see paypal as the method of doing so.
I do not use paypal, is there any other way?

Thank you all for keeping this excellent community like it is.

Hi guys, I hope this is the right section to post at. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/critical-flaw-in-shim-bootloader-impacts-major-linux-distros/ probably some of you already know about this new critical flaw. If it does, how and which of our puppy linux versions are affected? I cur...

thank you very much! it works. if I have understood well, there is an issue caused by a syntax error from the mullvad browser itself. I do not know about you, but I find it annoying thou that every time I need to launch the web browser we need to use a workaround, a sh script. Maybe I am missing som...
