Kernel 2.4.29-lck - performance patch for puppy 1.0.7
Kernel 2.4.29-lck for puppy 1.0.6 is available from here
http://www.murga.org/~puppy/viewtopic.p ... hlight=lck
lck patch is a performance patch that slightly improves speed and Xserver performance. I an posting from this kernel. Sound is also working.
Download the lck107.tar and extract the contents (vmlinuz and image.gz). Backup your original vmlimuz and image.gz and replace them with these.
Download from here
http://www.yourfilehost.com/media.php?c ... lck107.tar
If you need more modules let me know.

Two problems I had:
I believe the default(?) ramdisk size (12288) is too small (got kernel panic with messages suggesting ram size problem). Added boot parameter ramdisk=50603 and it worked. Used the ramdisk size from pizzapup, what should it be? or does using too big a size matter (tie up ram)?
I couldn't access my wireless network (show stopper for me), and discovered that ndiswrapper module is not present.
Thanks!

sorry I forgot about the ramdisk_size paramater. This file is 13 Mbs in size so a ramdisk_size=14426 should work. However I use 25000 because I work with diffrent images regularly.
ndiswrapper is missing in my compile altogetether. More has changes in the kernel than I thought.
USERS: Try this kernel, if it works Well and Good. If it dosent revert back to the older one.

bombayrockers,
Don't know if you want to spend any more time on this but when I said that the ndiswrapper module wasn't present, I based that on the output from "modprobe ndiswrapper" (which said it couldn't find the module). When I do "modprobe -l" the module is listed: /lib/modules/2.4.29-lck1/net/wireless/ndiswrapper.o.gz . Do you know why "modprobe -l" would see it but "modprobe ndiswrapper" says it couldn't be found? Just curious...

GuestToday,
Later I ran a depmod -a on my modules and found that ndiswrapper is missing something. So I ran the depmod on puppy with all the modules (produces during compile). The dependency was met with but modprobe ndiswrapper still did not work. This is why I said that more has been changed than I thought. Other than that I am not an expert, I just followed the compile kernel how to and also patched the kernel.
