Everything seems to work but the sound
Everything seems to work but the sound
I seriously do not know how I got everything to work but it did...except...I have no sound, no sound, not puppy whimper, growl or ruff ! I followed prompts, and just went with what was recommended, I am using Precise Puppy....I get videos but no sound, I do not know any lingo nor am a computer geek...I winged everything. At least I knew how to make a disc but that was easy and pretty much all I know.
I really need some help, I am not good at following directions but I am also on skype in case someone else is they could walk me through it or something...I like how fast everything is on my new Precise Puppy. It is simple, only once I put it on a usb...my comp doesn't read and I don t know how to get to happen either.
I 'd love to get some volume happening then I could really see how good my new comp is doing...I call it new because it is old/new and that is incredible!

hey mar1lez
whatssup....
right click on the speaker icon in the tray and open 'full window' and make sure the speaker is checked
if not then that should cure it, if not then go to setup>alsa sound wizard
in number 'TWO' try clicking the speaker icon, it should bark, if not try 'ONE' and follow the distructions!!
it's normally just muted though
good luck
ps - if that lot fails then make sure you post hardware info of you machine

so I tried to make a copy of my hardware
Ok I do not know how to copy my hardware spec either....I am not computer no how inclined....Okay now what?
yes, restarted twice
I did and it does not work...It says I have nvidia sound card but I do not think so I have conextant audio...plus when I tried to copy the hard ware specs, the computer shut down on me. idk WHAT TO DO
yes I tried the alsa sound wizard and all it says is that I cannot do that operation...then something about root...when I power down it wants me to type reboot and it says it is declined, the nvidia is denied, and to also to type poweroff it won't shut down I have to press the power button to shut down the computer.

sounds like a corrupt copy of puppy
best to check the download was correct using md5sum "file name of puppy" from the command line and check the md5sum from where you downloaded
if you were using a savefile then try booting the live-cd with 'puppy pfix=ram' option
this runs a clean boot
try and write down the information from the screens and post the details

Ok my internet is real slow right now
Ok this is going to take me awhile, to do do, I will come back I was going to say to do the viewer thingy....I also am using a dvd because when I did my initial usb it copied by my comp won't read it I did save to a user name mariez or marie and that is on fido and gnome I think?
nope don't know where to go
i am sorry but I cannot go anywhere to those things...it won't allow it....sorry...I input the md5sum but that did not do anything...it won't let me save anything...so could not input puppy pfix=ram...hecork i do not know if I even went to the right place...it took me for ever to just get back online!
hey marlez
you're making it difficult to help you
you don't answer the questions or provide details of what you have done, this makes it difficult
so, last go from me
1. what build of puppy, ie precise....what?
2. what computer details?
3. where did you download, what was the checksum?
4. record EXACTLY what you have done and the results you got
if you have a corrupt copy you will have troubles
when you put the cd in the drive and boot, the boot screen will give you options at the word 'boot:'
if you press f2 it will show you those options but type 'puppy pfix=ram' and this will load into ram only without a savefile if you had one
if will also not load from the hdd if you have installed it (and it's dodgy)
report.........
good luck

I had to reinstall everything and re do the Internet connection that took me a long time to do. the sound worked, it asked me to re-boot I did so without saving, and now the sound does not work again.
