Duane has found that Audacious plays audio files louder and cleaner than Pmusic. He can hardly hear audio files using Pmusic on mp3 files on his notebook. Even setting mixer at 100% didn't help. Suggest looking at Audacious Found Audacious 1.5.1 in Lighthouse Pup 442d. We both prefer Firefox over Se...

Life happens and I have been dealing with it lately and have not been working on my computer much. I did get the initrd.gz unzipped after I corrected the typo.

Hello, Could not get a find what was disabling IRQ #11 with loglevel=7. Sometimes it disables IRQ #11 or IRQ #7 or both or neither. How do I look at the code inside initrd.gz?

Thank you for your responses. Please keep the discussion up. I will set the log level=7 to see what happens. Please understand, When I see the message "Disabling IRQ #11" I usually pull the plug on my laptop (no battery installed). Plug it back in and try booting again. Usually within one ...

Thank you for your response. I learned that IRQ #11 when NOT disabled is used for the usb ports. The problem is that the boot code sometimes disable IRQ #11 The result is a very slow startup, shutdown and operation. When the computer disables IRQ #11 is shows: "Loading drives needed to access d...

The Icon for the USB drive that Puppy booted from disappears. Often it is not there when Puppy starts. On Shutdown, Puppy may or may not save to that drive. If it does, the USB drive may or may not appear at the next boot. If it doesn't save, then all work is lost. Often, when the USB drive icon dis...
