My wireless isn't support in beta 3, I had to plug in the ethernet
cable.
I was surprised to see that Nexuiz runs on this laptop, it's actually
playable when the effects are set to the lowest level, google earth
should run too but I haven't tested that yet.
I installed kdegames in ppm and they run okay but no menu entries
showed up in the puppy menu so I start them with gexec.
That's it so far, looks good

Slacko 5.4 Beta 3 PAE
Not able to connect to internet

Works in Slacko 5.3.3
Is this a known issue, or should I test more. in case yes, What?
I haven't tested much. Only checked some pMusic 3 issues. Will test more, but web connection would lift the general use.....

Problems with Beta 3 on Pentium D machine
I've been testing the non-PAE with Opera version of Slacko 5.3.7.0 on my Pentium D 3.4GHz machine and unfortunately I have to report that I'm having major problems with it.
I managed to boot into a pfix=ram session and sound and graphics were working. Network Wizard could see the Netgear WN111v2 USB wireless dongle and I could attempt to set it up, but on scanning for networks there weren't any shown. Frisbee and SNS couldn't see any either. Slacko 5.3.3, on which I am typing this report, usually sees 15 and wireless works perfectly.
While flaky wireless performance was probably not unexpected, given the usual pattern with Slacko betas on this setup, worse was to come with trying to create a save. The problem I've previously noted with 5.3.6.0 being unable to create a working save on my NTFS drive has come back. So far, the only successful new save I've created was on the FAT32 memory card in my Nokia X3-02 (with the phone set to Mass Storage).
I was able to get seemingly successful boots from the NTFS drive by using saves created in previous test builds in Slacko but on these Puppy couldn't see the wireless dongle - the only save which could see it was the newly-created 5.3.7.0 save on the X3-02 although it still can't see any networks.
FWIW, Slacko 5.3.6.5 did have reasonably working wireless in that it worked from bootup, although I still had the problem with the connection dropping out and needing to run wireless setup again to kick it back into life.
All tests were boots from LiveCD.

What excellent taste in default wallpaper! Maybe get on the blower to you know who?!Slacko 5.4 Beta 3 4g and PAE versions, devx and kernel source is released.
This frozen mouse issue is a real pain. It has only started appearing in releases in the last few months. Sometimes the suggested fixes work, sometimes just rebooting (without saving!) works, sometimes nothing works. A universal solution seems desirable for both regular testers as well as to avoid frightening off incomers.
@Billtoo.. did your wireless work in a previous slacko? Next will have the wl driver anyway.
@zigbert.. your problem looks like it is related to assigning wlan1 to the interface, If you only have 1 wireless donge it should be wlan0. I've never seen that one before. I have a dongle that uses ralink usb (rt73) so I can test.
@jades.. it's got to be a firmware issue. I still didn't see your latest dmesg output. Anyway, I have the latest carl9170 firmware and I'll attach. Install it and reboot.
@Sage.. "the bike guy" is back too .. will need to sort out the mouse issue, it has to be timing if it's intermittent.
EDIT: beta 3 will be reuploaded soon., I'll bump to beta 4 and add deltas
IWCONFIG is broken, this happened to me once before in woof

Forgot to post it, sorry. Been busy the last few weeks sorting out accounts for a charity. This week, I have a bad cold.01micko wrote:@jades.. it's got to be a firmware issue. I still didn't see your latest dmesg output.
Tried it, didn't make a difference. Still can't see any networks. I've attached dmesg output from both Slacko 5.3.3 (on which wireless does work properly) and from Slacko 5.3.7.0 after installing the firmware pet provided and rebooting (save on phone).01micko wrote:Anyway, I have the latest carl9170 firmware and I'll attach. Install it and reboot.
Interestingly, other than a brief flash after having disconnected and reconnected the WN111v2 dongle, the light on it has stayed off on 5.3.7.0. It didn't flash at all while I was trying to find a network.
Any thoughts on my not being able to make a save to an NTFS partition?
[Edit: clarified that light staying off comment applied to 5.3.7.0.]

Jades, iwconfig is broken, I am rebuilding, I will add deltas and the new carl firmware anyway. Please grab a delta, but it will likely be tomorrow for you.
You can try Barry's wireless-tools from ibiblio in the quirky/wary5 repo if you want.
Thanks

I didn't know what iwconfig was, had to search for it on Wikipedia. I see why more than one person had reported wireless problems now.01micko wrote:Jades, iwconfig is broken, I am rebuilding
IIRC the current test build of Wary worked OK with wireless when I tried it last. I don't normally use Wary on Merlin though.01micko wrote:You can try Barry's wireless-tools from ibiblio in the quirky/wary5 repo if you want.

01micko,
I have used your Frisbee 2.4beta as the basis for my effort to integrate Frisbee into puppy. I discovered an apparent inconsistency in the name of the /etc/init.d/Frisbee initialization script. The main Frisbee script contains :I see no such file. Is this code correct?

It's been awhile since I looked at the code, but I am aware that there is no service script. To be honest I didn't thoroughly go through the code at all, I mainly just got rid of the pupcowsay or whatever it was and used gtkdialog-splash. As far as I can remember everything was dealt with in the Startup folder.
I will review my package though, it's quite old. Also, note the package I use in Slacko is "frisbee_special".
Thanks

Beta 4 is out!
As promised there are delta for 4g and PAE from beta 3 which was declared a non-starter. No delta for firefox as there was no beta 3 uploaded for that.
Wireless in all 3 is working on a variety of cards that I have.

Updated 5.3.6.5 to 5.3.7.1 (FF non PAE). No (wired) network, no interface or module to be found! No sound, no kernel modules other than the ones loaded in the init. Reboot, same thing.
Run "depmod -a" and reboot, Bingo!
You might need to look at your kernel/rc.sysinit

I'm kinda glad the stupid iwconfig bug was there because it gave me the chance to get opera-12.10 out there. It only takes 30 minutes to reproduce the 3 versions. The worst part is the upload on my crappy bandwidth! (330kbps v .. 100kbps ^)
Hmmm... I did 2 updates on flash drives, 1 ext3 and 1 FAT and both only needed a reboot, but yeah should work without one, I'll investigate. Again probably a busy-box depmod call which doesn't work, maybe need to update busybox.mavrothal wrote:Updated 5.3.6.5 to 5.3.7.1 (FF non PAE). No (wired) network, no interface or module to be found!

Sorry mate, didn't build PAE-firefox, only 3 versions. The rationale is that if you have PAE capable then you have decent gear (I don't use it personally, but it's there for the ones with the big RAM) and can afford the extra space to download Firefox. You can get the latest in the repo if you look in the Slackware-patches repo in PPM. That may or may not change for final.spandey wrote:Sorry if I am asking the obivious, but which iso for FF with PAE ?

For the first time in a long time and many puppies, XO kernel compilation failed in 5.3.7.1. (same source compiled fine in Precise)
Didn't look at the error carefully but if you do not have beta5 out by tomorrow ( ), I'll let you know
Latter The error I get is
Code: Select all
arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.c:1396:17: error: conflicting types for ‘syscall_trace_leave’
Hopefully tonight I'll check if this patch fixes it
Latter-latter Yeap. Patching the kernel source with the above patch solves the issue. So if you want to compile a lupu or any 2.6.x kernel in slacko_14, keep that in mind.

Slacko - beta4 [5.4]
I decided to try the pae version of beta 4 and did a full install on
my emachines D620 laptop.
Operating System
Version
Kernel Linux 3.4.17-PAE (i686)
Compiled #1 SMP Fri Nov 2 19:12:33 EST 2012
C Library GNU C Library version 2.15 (stable)
Default C Compiler GNU C Compiler version 4.7.1 (GCC)
Distribution Unknown distribution
The wireless network is working again with this version.
Sound didn't work at first, there was a red x beside the retrovol icon
in the tray.I configured retrovol and unmuted everything but still no
sound, I ran alsamixer and pressed F6 to choose the sound card and
rebooted, sound is working now.
Multimedia
Audio Adapter HDA-Intel - HDA ATI SB
The graphics card support (ATI Technologies Inc RS690M [Radeon X1200
Series]) is great, Nexuiz and Google Earth work well.
There is the problem with the puppy menu not showing any kdegames
entries but the games work fine when started with gexec.
That's it so far, thanks.
