How to Enable Serial Mouse in Puppy?
I was able to do this in Arch Linux by installing the linuxconsole package and typing a command in the terminal to activate it. How do I do this in Puppy Linux?

Slow mirrors
Anybody recently tried to download bookwormpup64 for ibliblio or its mirrors? I understand if it's slow like 200-500kbps, but 16kbps? And in all mirrors, too.
Has anybody else have this problem or just me?

Old laptop not booting with Linux
Specs:
- SAMSUNG RV415 E300 1.3GHZ
- 4GB RAM
- Desired OS: PUPPY LINUX (VOID PUPPY 64)
- It was before WINDOWS 7
When I boot it, goes directly into BIOS, without pressing F2. It does appear the HD in the info in BIOS, so I guess it does recognize it.
When selected HD to override boot, it displays the following message: "REBOOT AND SELECT PROPER BOOT DEVICE OR INSERT BOOT MEDIA IN SELECTED BOOT DEVICE AND PRESS A KEY"
I passed on the Void Puppy 64 installation phase (32-bit) and it keeps displaying it (I thought before it was a Linux Mint problem with the hardware, turns out it is not).

Still alive?
I have this usb drive with puppylinux installed on it, like 5 years ago. Do today decided to boot with it. Works still fine on a modern pc too. Then the moment I managed to connect to the internet (wifi usb dongle with no driver needed), using the default browser managed to connect online. I was totally invisible as everything was running in the ram. Then while trying to download package, a simple ddrescue. My hack did not last longer as suddenly, the entire USB ports was disconnected or it seems disabled ( a command from the web?). Keyboard, mouse, everything.... But still the screen is on and I can see all my files but with no input now... Lol.

Live bootable was created with USB Image Writer in Cinnamon 22.1.
The issue:
The live bootable did not boot and a message saying:
(Minimal BASH-like line aditing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible completions of a device/filename. ESC at any time exits.)
grub>_ (the _ is a live prompter)
Seems that it demands grub. Do not know what to do. Help, please?
Thanks.

Running Puppy Linux in virtual machine - any tips?
I decided to give Puppy Linux a go in a Virtual Machine. I gave my virtual session ridiculously low settings:
1 CPU, 10GB storage and 2GB RAM
I want to see how usable I can make this virtual system. If I get good at it, I can try Puppy Linux or low-end machines.
I didn't have to configure the internet; it just connected automatically.
Firefox is laggy. Should I opt for a more low-end browser?
What kind of retro gaming can you do? I'd like to try out some examples.
What configuration would you recommend for a basic use case.

How do i get amdgpu driver to work
I havent used puppy in a modern PC in my life, tried it yesterday, it keeps using the ATI driver and not the amdgpu driver, causing me to get stuck at 800x600 60hz.
How do i make it load the amdgpu driver instead so my amd radeon rx 7600 works?

Puppy Linux for BYOD security in hospital
Hello all,
Through a school project I've started working on a solution for the cybersecurity of the BYOD in a hospital in very underfunded region, basically no serious budget available for the IT department at all)
To prevent the spread of viruses on the protected internal network, and to prevent patient files being downloaded on personal devices, and lastly to prevent misuse of the hospital's bandwith (employees will torrent movies on their laptops during worktime) I want to create a Puppy Linux environment that all the employees can boot on their devices at the start of their work day.
The employees only need to use their webbrowser to access webapps for HIS and PACS software running on their server. There is no need for other preinstalled software. This would mean I configure a Puppy with the following demands:
* Preconfigured network connection
* A custom browser startscreen with tiles for all the links they use
* Disable installing software and accessing BYOD's harddrives during a session
I want to be able to work on the Puppy inside of a VM, since that would make working on the Puppy easier. I need to have persistence (saving on a partition on the USB-stick itself, not on the device it's plugged into) for as long as I am working on configuring the Puppy, but when I am done and want the hospital to test it, it needs to be fully locked from saving anything.
Once implemented, how would updating all of the USB sticks be done efficiently and securely? There will likely be quite around 50 sticks, and in case something needs to be changed or patched, what would be the best way to handle this?
Would it be possible to set up a server for netbooting instead of using USB drives?
And I also wonder how Apple device compatibility looks.
I will be looking further into all of my own questions, but I wanted to ask here too, because I appreciate any 3rd party input, especially from people knowledgeble on the subject.
If there are huge issues I'm missing, please tell me!
Thank you all very much for your time.

I was able to solve this. In case anyone else runs into this same issue, it was because I did not have the tegra-egl libraries loaded in my container. All that was needed was to add echo "/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/tegra-egl" > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/nvidia-tegra-egl.conf && ldconfig to my Dockerfile and I was all set.
and here --
was able to resolve 90% of the driver issues by moving the /usr/lib folder to /usr/local/lib as many Xorg 3d dependencies overlap these nvidia files.
The coreplayer2 driver used /usr/lib (which is default in the installer) and it manually deleted the files created by Xorg 3d via tce.installed, however there are many files, not just 1 file (1 file, 2 symlinks of the same file ) as he used it.
So I found that it would be much easier to move to /usr/local/lib and I had no problems, quite the contrary, many problems were solved.
One of them was DRI2 (DRI2: failed to authenticate (caused on mpv, nvidia-settings and others)) which gave priority to libEGL from /usr/local/lib created by the libEGL.tcz package.please kindly excuse me for a long post.. and i am in tinycore linux , asking here because very less help from there..thanks .

Can I use different puppy saves with different versions?
As the title implies I want to use my current puppy save with a different version. I am unable to play (totally legally obtained) games with .sh extension because it either doesn't run or says no file directory, so I am assuming for now that smth is wrong with the version I am using (bookworm).
Thanks for any replies, I know I am lwk a dumbahh

In BookwormPup32, Firefox/Chromium's "save as" window fails to appear
The "open file" window works from the browser menu but fails if triggered by an in-page choose-file button! (which is very frustrating since I can't upload any files/images to websites!)
xdg-desktop-portal xdg-desktop-portal-gtk zenity are already installed. Light's window works fine (so it's not a JWM bug, right?)
