Well, saw Puppy 2.17 was avail..
Read something about the old puppy save file not compatible, so tried to do everything from scratch again.
And can't seem to get Dri to be active for starters. Iv'e been searching the web and downloading the latest drivers it seems.. (Can't even tell how to compare versions..)
Here is the log file.. It's got errors.. not sure why (yet
Im learning.. below the log file is my xorg config file.
Thanks so much
