newest kernel 3.1.8 & 3.0.16 test on lupu528
My solution was that I downloaded Barrys 3.X kernel source sfs. then I launched my 3.1 kernel from its folder and Barrys kernel from its folder using Barrys ./config on his folder and mine in 3.1 folder with make menuconfig. I ticked the firewall section exactly as Barry had done. That way I got firewall section so that Puppy firewall script was happy with unloading and loading several modules. I then used that 3.1 kernel .config for really compiling the 3.1 kernel and the firewall script and firewall state script was happy. I still can see them smiling.....

Lupu 528 with k3.1.0 remains my number one pup!
A quick test of k3.1.8 (manual frugal install to fat32 USB2 stick - ext2 save)
gave no problems but no real gains either.
Hardware detection seems slicker but k3.2 looks like a real winner.

Nvidia pet worked fine.

You can open /usr/local/quickpet.sh with text then seache "3.0.16", and you can add 3.1.8 behand 3.0.16. NOTE, do not forget "|".
B43 returns - but only for this k3 puppy
Hi wuxiandianzi
[edit] After making the report below I tried 01micko's new slacko5.3.1.1 with k3.1.9 and found that it still had the "B43 not detected" problem - so wondering if you can think what might be different in your compile of k3.1.8 which causes B43 detection to work? I'm sure both 01micko and pemasu would be interested to know how you did it - thanks [/edit]
Delighted to report that support for the Broadcom B43 wifi seems to have returned with K3.1.8 thank goodness...
Still the strange problem with savefile creation in that the standard first reboot dialogue results in a savefile size of minus 1 Mb so fails to create the savefile - as reported previously this can be cured by loading the pupsaveconfig .pet and using that to define the pupsave parameters.
Maybe of help to others - I use grub4dos and have a standard menu.lst file that loads all puppies - so I needed to rename vmlinuz and initrd.gz before they would boot - but simple rename was all that was needed.
Bit confusing to a simple soul like me to have the spup desktop background in lupu - had to check I'd loaded the right version lol.
But congrats on this experiment
Cheers
