I haven't looked at the upup raring project yet. I'm assuming pulling the kernel out of it would be the same as the way i linked to a cpl posts up. So that shouldn't be a big problem.meowcats wrote:As far as kernels, the upup raring kernel, or fatdog 620. Both are modern kernels with lots of testers
the fatdog64 620 kernel though...a completely different ball game. In a previous thread, the argument was raised about how FatDog64 is more 'woof-like' than ArchPup was. ArchPup didn't come with rox, jwm, or the ppm...but it did come with an initrd.gz and an sfs file. FatDog64 does come with rox, jwm, and the ppm...but it doesn't come with an initrd.gz or an sfs file. So truthfully speaking, it's as far off the mark from a traditional woof-built puppy, as ArchPup was.
With that being the case...pulling the kernel from fatdog64 620, using the commonly known method, won't work.
I won't give up on updating the Sensei64 kernel, but presently....it's not a task that would be anything close to simple to do. Even though Sensei64 uses the older 3.0.3 kernel...all the apps are new as of 3/20/13. i feel as though being able to more easily get rid of apps you might not want, outweighs using a newer kernel. But if you have hardware that isn't working with it, then 'yes'...that's a good enough reason to put forth the effort to getting the kernel updated. So i'll try my best, and see if i can get 'both' requirements...inside of Sensei64.
i see you say u're using the non-pae 32-bit Sensei, but you have a 64-bit machine. Personally, i wouldn't feel comfortable using a 32-bit OS on a 64-bit machine. So once again, i will 'try' to get the Sensei64 kernel updated, in hopes that it'll correct the current hardware issue u're having.......'if' I can successfully get it updated.
