First attempts with R-Pi. 1. See this post in my thread on this topic. 2. Tried to boot "Puppy Raspberry Pi alpha 4" [on a 16GB card], and got NOTHING! :( 3. Wheezy [on a separate 16GB card] boots OK on the same hardware setup, but I think I've corrupted it by a previous improper power-of...

Thanks for sharing that one. Have you tested on an old LCD monitor or a Glass such? I've thrown away all my old clunkers though. One commentator wrote that the adaper only works if that monitor can really take that input and few of the old does? Most of my four none goes beyond 1024 x 768 and that ...

Sad that none of them have real analog VGA out. I have four LCD screens for VGA and only one TV for HDMI so that one show TV programs and it is a waist of good monitors to not be about to use the four LCD screens s I wait until such get made Maybe this could help? http://www.ebay.com/itm/HDMI-Male-...

I dont know if everyone has heard about this community funded board which is due to ship this week. The pre-order price was 49 dollars but not sure what the final price will be for the different models. It is an open source project so the circuit diagrams are available too.

Thanx Woodenshoe, I actually came to that with the bootcode.bin myself, and got Puppy to boot, but not much more. Also can't use the WiFi, I'll try to find what I need to get it work. Also I'll try your ideas to copy those files you mentioned. The problem I had with the second partition came from th...

Hi I´m a new owner of a Raspberry Pi, ver. 2, 512 Mb. Got it work with the Wheezy, but not really happy with it, would like to use Puppy, as I run that on some other computers. So I downloaded the Alpha4, unfolded under Windows, transferred to the SD card with the utility - but it´s not booting. Whe...

Yes, there are several very good solutions in the Linux Distro world which are suitably great implementation of SAMBA solutions; everything from simple workstation implementations that we get from Microsoft and Apple to increased functionslity that come with the use of SAMBA features to control and...

I think I found the solution that fits me best http://www.resara.org This is a preconfigured Samba server, can act as PDC, well made interface, and it seems to work well. It uses Samba 4, which I know is only Beta, but seem to be very stable. Anyway I'll do not place anything vital on this server ye...

Sorry for double posting, don't know how I did that.
Moderator, please remove one of them!

Hi Martin, I can't claim having installed 100 Windows servers, that number would rather stay with about 25 - 30 and Novell NetWareabout the same or a bit less. Yes, I did already replaced PDCs. with same versions and also with upgrading to newer version. And yes, I did have problems with those cases...

Sorry about input. I used years ago in NT4 and NT 2000 time sme server as file server and as email server. It was easy to configure, using its browser based management system. The server has no X. I configured it using Putty - ssh connection when I had to do commandline stuff which the browser mana...

Hi Martin If I don't mind you helping me? Hahaha... :-) You see I spent the whole weekend on to find a solution to this problem - and still don't even know which way to begin to go on. Let me describe it from the beginning: A customer of mine has a domain based system, about 30 workstations, 40-45 p...

Thank you, I'll try to experiment a little with this Slacko repo you mention here to see how long I get with that. I also gave atry to Ubuntu 12.04 again, followed the instructions I found, got as long as a workstation is seeing the PDC but can not create an account, claiming that the user is not al...

Thank you for the prompt reply! Maybe some comments to it can shed some more light over my probelems: Gcmartin is the resident Samba expert and I'm sure that he will eventually reply. But here are some general observations. I hope he turns up, or I can find a way to contact him! I did read some of h...

I see that the thread is about 2 years old, wonder if I can get someone to answer a few questions. I'm not completely new to Puppy, I use it mainly for system recovery in M$-Windows context an also as a base for RDP connection to remote locations. But now I'm facing a problem that I'd like solve wit...
