Bonjour à toutes et tous,
@shinobar,
Thank you for your reply.
We have created a symlink from /usr/bin/acpi to /bin/busybox and it works, but only once.
How to restart the process automatically when reactivation, to restart again a new hibernation?
Cordialement

Re: acpid-busybox on Racy Puppy 5.5
I am not sure why, but the precise has the symlink at /sbin/acpid to /bin/busybox.esmourguit wrote:We have created a symlink from /usr/bin/acpi to /bin/busybox and it works, but only once.
/etc/init.d/rc.acpi checks the busybox functions by 'busybox --list', but older version of busybox does not support '--list' option.
replace 'busybox --list' by 'busybox' at line 7 in /etc/init.d/rc.acpi:
Code: Select all
if [ "$(busybox | grep acpid)" = "" ]; then

puppy goes to erased partition
Hi
I did reorganize the hd from pc of my wife using the tools of Puppy (gparted, rox) and did erase partition sda6.
Puppy Precise is now in the dir "precise" in the root of sda5
as you can see on the screenshot in this message gparted shows no partition sda6 any more.
but Puppy Precise shows an icon sda6 and points on it as the mounted partition for home and will probably organize a real chaos if trying to write on an absent partition
I suppose that it is comming from the save file that my wife is always using in Puppy (bad idea those save files...)?
are the save file not portable?
kind regards

Just tried 5.7.1 and seems fairly normal. Had shutdown Save file failure I`ve seen before.
Won`t go past first Save file screen, so I restarted the X server and it worked.
But the Save file wizard was completely messed up and reported not saved at shutdown.
Booted back into 5.4.X.5 and looked in the 5.7.1 dir. and there is a Save file in it.
This problem is one of the many I spoke of often that have been around for way too long.
It doesn`t look like it`d be all that hard to fix it. How about a bug swatting thread for them?

DVB-T USB stick, no firmware loaded
Apologies, I'm new here, I posted this initially in the wrong place.
Seems OK, except it does not load the firmware for my USB DVB-T stick.
DMESG indicates the device is found (gives correct ID, hardinfo gives correct information), but no firmware is looked for in lib/firmware. The stick is it-9135 based, using firmware it9137-01.fw.
Posting this from Mint which works; also Ubuntu and Puppy Carolina correctly see the stick and load the firmware. This is dmesg from Mint:
[10944.179969] usb 2-1.5: new high-speed USB device number 14 using ehci_hcd
[10944.275251] it913x: Chip Version=01 Chip Type=9135
[10944.276986] it913x: Dual mode=0 Remote=5 Tuner Type=37
[10944.278229] dvb-usb: found a 'ITE 9135 Generic' in cold state, will try to load a firmware
[10944.280802] dvb-usb: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-usb-it9137-01.fw'
I tried to post the dmesg segment from Puppy 5.7.1, but the terminal has no copy/paste function. How do I do this?

I downloaded the non-retro 5.7.1
everything went fine, until it came time to try and shutdown.
I couldnt find the save icon on the desktop, but i figured the dialog box says its all cool and will be handled on exit....
Didn't get any save options - I was thinking to myself 'hmmm perhaps its all handled under the hood now.. cool.'
crossed my fingers and hoped for the best.
But this didn't happen, as when I restarted I was back to square one.
First where is the save button now on the desktop? It says in the window that the save file will be created on shutdown but I never get that option.
any help is much appreciated.
but on the plus side, nice release.

Maybe you have never shut down properly
or
you are using an (almost) empty save file.
Anyway here is your save file if you have one: copy
Code: Select all
grep PUPSAVE /etc/rc.d/PUPSTATE
Mine is:
Code: Select all
# grep PUPSAVE /etc/rc.d/PUPSTATE
PUPSAVE='sda3,ext2,/precise571/precisesave-asrock2.2fs'
#
Code: Select all
shutdownconfig
Hope that helps
EDIT
To be correct: shutdownconfig configures the save file which will be created at shutdown.

What's wrong ? How can I install grub ?

Unable to load SFS files
I recently had a flash drive failure and now I'm having some trouble with Precise Puppy 5.7.1 (it's the same installation, I didn't change a thing since the failure) and it gives me the following message when I try to use an app or program: “SFS-Load: fatal: fail to add '/initrd/pup_ro6' to unionfs
If I remember well, Precise 571 doesn't have the latest sfs-load, maybe trying it solves the problem:
