no dave its the modules, the intel modules are broken you might as well wait for the next release when they are updated, actually they have to be removed to fix it for others, they cause a memory leak.davec51 wrote:Frugal on a Dell PIV from around 2003, with the usual poor Intel video card: I can't get Xorg to work at all, and VESA only gives an impossibly low resolution. Other Puppies have givend no problem. I tried the boot command "vga=normal" with no results. Is this a function of the new kernel?
this is a quote from Barry's blog
"EDIT:
I had tested the ALSA Wizard very soon before releasing the final, so I thought hard, what changed before then and the final? ...ah, one thing, I put rerwin's 537 modem modules in. That's it, take them out and depmod-FULL works.
You will find them at /lib/modules/2.6.30.5/intelmodem
This bug does not affect pup-430-small.iso, only the full size pup-430.iso.
I'm going to rebuild and re-upload it, without the 537 modules. "
