Dpup Exprimo 5.X.15
Just took advantage of sales & acquired a 22" Viewsonic VA2212M-LED monitor.
http://www.viewsonic.com/us/va2212m-led.html
It is connected to a Samsung NB30 Netbook running Puppy Linux dpup Exprimo 5x15.
Chipset: Intel NM10
Graphics: Intel GMA3150 (integrated)
Maximum NB30 resolution:1024 x 600 @ 60
Windows open in partial screen rather than full screen.
I can manually drag them full screen but cannot figure out how to get them to default to full screen.
Help, please?
Thanks!

Hi edoc,
According to this post:
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-Grap ... 264.0.html
The 3150 only supports an external analogue VGA port with resolutions up to 1400x1050. You need to set that resolution within Puppy.

I have experimented with the settings but Seamonkey & other apps refuse to go full screen - which means that I have to manually expand every window.
Somewhere there is a solution ...
Thanks!

Hi edoc,
Sorry to see you not fully enjoy your new purchase. Does this issue appear only on this Puppy build and not on others, or Windows? If it's a generic problem, not specific to Dpup Exprimo, you may want to post it here: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/index.php?f=30
It will have a much more targeted exposure there, it might even get the attention of tempestuous, who seems to be the person to go to with issues like yours.

Full Screen Crashes
I was just in a .doc document in LibreOffice and clicked Full Screen.
It crashed the desktop to the xwin commandline.
When I entered "xwin" the desktop was restored & Seamonkey reopened but LibreOffice refused to reopen - I had to reboot.
WDYT?

Full Screen Display
I just discovered that if I go into Laptop Tools - Change Resolution and turn off LVDS (the laptop display) then the external monitor opens each window full screen.
It would be best if there was a way to have both displays on and this work properly but this will work for now!

Puppy oin Gateway's?
I need to prepare two 10yr old computers to travel to Honduras to be used in a school for orphans.
Gateway 600YG2
Gateway M675PRR
Someone tried Mint and Ubuntu but couldn't get them to play DVD's.
I assured them that Puppy can handle it.
Would Exprimo 5x15 be the version of choice or something else, please?
I need to get this done, preferably tomorrow evening, worse case Monday.
Thanks!

Hi David !
maybe you already are aware of this thread...http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 5&start=15 which might be of some help for MPlayer use ?
Success and farewell wishes in Honduras !

Yes, I have had excellent experience with Exprimo on several older and newer laptops and netbooks.
I thought I read that there was one version specifically optimized for older computers and thought if Exprimo had trouble with drivers or performance a different Puppy may meet the need.

Gateway M675PRR laptop
I did get the older and less-sophisticated of the two laptops to work and the children in Honduras to whom it was delivered are very pleased.
The trouble with the better of the two may be maybe something about the interface of Exprimo and the chipset of the Gateway M675PRR laptop?
http://support.gateway.com/s/Mobile/Gat ... sp75.shtml
The DVD drive handles the Linux CD OK.
After trying various video settings I was able get as far as playing the video but it fails on sound no matter how many settings I have tweaked in every place I could find!
WDYT?

I did try an older version of Lucid, no joy.
I'll try a search of the audio chip & Puppy and see if the general search engine brings up a match somewhere.
EDIT1: Sigmatel® Soft Audio 6-channel AC97 revision 2.3 codec (STAC9758)
EDIT2: This was apparently addressed back in 2004! A patch to alsa-deiver 1.0.3
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions ... 75-145832/
I tried looking in Puppy Package Manager and there are a ton of alsa-related files but I have no idea which, if any, would resolve the problem.

That patch was incorporated to the alsa-driver in version 1.0.4
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf
You could try the suggest rows there:
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf
You could try the suggest rows there:
Here's my /etc/modules.conf:
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-midi
At the top of /etc/modules.conf it has this seemingly contradictory statement:
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-midi
Toward the bottom of /etc/modules.conf is:#I left this file here for old-times sake. 2.6 kernel uses modprobe.conf.
# Note, the script /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit*
# calls script /etc/rc.d/rc.modules*
# to load the modules.
# modprobe* references this config file, modules.conf.
#v432 rerwin: This file is still used by Conexant-modems to retain major-number selections for the experimental range (240-254).
Which means that these three are missing from what you have:#Puppy 1.0.0, added Alsa support...
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-midi

A small mysql in Exprimo?
I just need mysql in Exprimo.
XAMPP for Linux seems to be the most-simple way to get mysql ...
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html
But XAMPP seems larger than necessary for the purpose.
Should I still prefer it for minimal install hassle?
Has anyone installed it successfully in Exprimo?

Using a USB Tuner?
This all sounds like a giant mess if I try it.
Anyone understand what he is saying who can offer a paint-by-numbers set of instructions?
Or even better a PET or SFS?

.Yes, the RTL-based usb stick will work in Linux using gnuradio and gqrx.
Typically to get gnu radio you download the gnu radio build script and run it, which grabs source
code from various locations and compiles it for you. Other apps, like gqrx, are build on top of gnuradio

As a follow-up I did end up loading XAMPP.
The next adventure is in MySQL.
After executing a CREATE USER and a couple of GRANT lines it refused to "quit" so I had to Ctrl-C out - which I presume lost the prior work.
Any idea why "quit" would not function in MySQL?
