Fatdog64-630rc1 (16 Oct 2013) [CLOSED]

Specify a dict server please.

Code: Select all

'dict.conf' doesn't specify any dict server

dict just needs one file; ~/.dictrc
Then add this to it;

Code: Select all

server dict.org

Or add it to /etc/dict.conf

[L18L]

Thank you WillM

I can use dict now.

Another issue:

Code: Select all

locate

is included in fatdog but not working.

To make it work

Code: Select all

mkdir -p /var/state

Code: Select all

updatedb

is doing what it says
and locate can then be used to find any file in the system.

I just recently came across this Puppy linux, They are all great.I experimented quite a few of different distros, and finally, i discovered this FATDOG. Gosh! it is blazingly fast. I do have a few things to report after trying the FD 621 final and this 630rc1:

I am using a Lenovo Thinkpad T400 with C2D CPU, intel wireless 5100AGN, using module iwlwifi. The built-in WPA doesnt work well at all. I can manage to get it to work, although it does not load the module at all. All it showed is an atheros module. I can manually load the module, but there is no new interface after successfully loaded the module. It did connect, but the session can not be saved, and it does not show the encryption right, everything is WEP, when in fact they are WPA2. Every time rebooting the machine, i have to go through the wizard again starting from scanning, create profile and acquire an IP, and so on.

I have searched the internet and forum, and seing people saying i have to have both iwlwifi-5000-1-ucode and iwlwifi-5000-2-ucode in the /lib/firmware. it does not help. The one that came with fatdog is iwlwifi-5000-5-ucode.

I tried to add boot option to menu.lst, it worked in terms connecting to my home network. But the WPA tray icon disappears. I can not disconnect or find other wifi if i leave home.

Thanks to Kirk for creating the Frisbee.pet. It worked like a charm.

The second problem is the printer setup. By clicking the /control pannel/system/CUPS manage printing, a popup windows asks me if i need help adding a printer. Clicking "yes" or "no" both will bring me to the browser home page. Both the 621 and this RC are the same.

is there a way to get the intel wireless working with or without having to replace the current network manager?

?????

When I click "yes", it takes me to here. If I click "no", it loads the CUPS web interface at http://localhost:631.

i just tried again. it brought me to: file:///usr/share/doc/home.htm. either yes or no. I was using the 621 and now the RC1.

Have you changed browsers? I checked again in 630 RC1 with the default Seamonkey and it behaved exactly as expected.

i did not do anything to the browser, the stock seamonkey.

i just changed my browser home page from default to google.com. It now brings up google instead, clicking yes or no.

Hi, tigs

Could you please help me find this Frisbee pet
I did not find it in the repos...

Interesting boot phenomenon. nV MX440 video card. Black screen. Ctrl-Alt-Bkspce produces terminal screen behind which is correct desktop. Exit terminal and everything works. Not seen this variant before. Incomers might not know the k/b option? Simple fix?

...I checked again in 630 RC1 with the default Seamonkey and it behaved exactly as expected.

I can confirm
... and localized CUPS in localized Seamonkey is working, too.

It is not in the repo, but in one of the post. I wish it is included in the repo.

Here is the thread:

Sage, some of the older Nvidea boards can be problematic. I found a thread that suggests a nouveau noaccel=1 parameter which also works for Precise Puppies. My MX440 will eventually freeze and require reboot without this. I always type it in at the boot options.
.
EDIT: Create a file in /etc/modprobe.d/ call it nouveau.conf... create a single line "options nouveau noaccel=1" without quotes.

Firewall Wizard uses dialog.

Fatdog's dialog is not yet internationalized.
Attached is internationalized dialog.

BarryK had shown how to do it here:

Thank's a lot tigs

It works for mee too I like it even if wpagui works also great

$1 not working


edit
Sorry for that alert: $1 can now

[Sage]

Thanks, JW. Yes, it gets somewhat tiresome following all the foregoing alleged fixes! The version I reported wasn't one I'd seen before. Frankly for liveCD at the bench it's quicker to swap video cards. For a FULL installation, which isn't favoured hereabouts, one can add those cheat codes into GRUB. Otherwise it may pose undue effort for developers to dig deeper into code?
