I just booted to the Puppy3.02alpha CD, which has the same kernel as Puppy4.0.
I downloaded zd1211b-2.21.0.0-k2.6.21.7.pet from the forum into /root/my-documents
I clicked on the file, and got the install prompt, refer image1.
After the installation I am greeted with the "SUCCESS" prompt, refer image2.
If I use ROX to browse to /lib/modules/2.6.21.7/net I can see the two new modules - refer image3. But more importantly, if I run "modinfo zd1211b" in a console I see this -
Code: Select all
# modinfo zd1211b
filename: /lib/modules/2.6.21.7/net/zd1211b.ko

If the dotpet is failing to install by clicking on it in ROX, try the commandline equivalent -
Code: Select all
petget /root/my-documents/zd1211b-2.21.0.0-k2.6.21.7.pet
If it fails, at least you should get some clue why.[/quote]
Tempesteous:
When I click on the .pet file icon I get two blinks and no install prompt. In console I entered required code. Yields: bash: petget /root/my-documents/zd1211b-2.21.0.0-k2.6.21.7.pet: No such file or directory. I placed the .pet file in /. I entered: petget /zd1211b-2.21.0.0-k2.6.21.7.pet. Yielded petget /zd1211b-2.21.0.0-k2.6.21.7.pet: No such file or directory.
I may be mistaken but it appears that can8v in his post of 2:21 today says he installs and gets zd1201. I believe he was not successful in his install and believes zd1201 to be the result of his install. I believe zd1201 was original with the Puppy 4.0 disk. My reason for this is that zd1201 is with zd1211rw in a different path and file from the one where you told me the zd1211b file will go. If can8v and I both have the same problem, then there may be a problem somewhere else.
can8v:
look in this location and see what you have. /lib/modules/2.6.21.7/net/zd1211b.ko.
