I'm running pup-430-small on a Dell Mini 10 I think my lockups have to do with the Intel GMA500 graphics chip. I'm not sure. My monitor is never detected in xorg auto detect. I enclosed the last /var/log/messages file from the last good boot. I since rmmod the lib80211_crypt_tkip module, since it se...

Started over again this morning with a fresh start. Disabled WPA on my router, and set it as "open" no wireless security. The wizard connected and I got to google's home page fine. My email downloads now also. :) I need to figure out this WPA thing. On this page: http://djkaos.wordpress.co...

I wiped puppy 4.3b3 off my hard drive since I had a problem with xorg. xvesa also quit working. Intel GMA500 Poulsbo driver problem. I installed puppy 4.3 small iso I did pretty much the same thing to setup my network as above, but I cannot get out to the internet or receive mail. Blinky on the task...

Good question. I wanted to know this also since I sometimes have to download ISOs more than once to get a "clean" one that md5 matches.

Thank you, at least I'm starting to get somewhere now. :) I loaded the module as described above, then I blacklisted b43 because it was showing errors upon booting puppy 4.3b3. I wasn't able to get any scan results until I loaded another module: modprobe lib80211_crypt_tkip Then upon next reboot, bl...

I tried compiling the driver in puppy 4.3b3 for the wifi card from this source: http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php I got many errors as listed in this post: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=341759#341759 I'm requesting if someone could please try to compile and post thi...

I tried to compile this on puppy 4.3 beta 3, but failed.
I'm also waiting for the wl.ko module to become available for 2.6.30.5 kernel

My above post doesn't include some important details. In the BIOS in the Dell Mini-10, there is also a setting: enable/disable wireless lan control If I boot Windows and remove the checkmark in "Enable wireless" application, it somehow accesses the hardware and turns off the wireless radio...

Is it possible to "convert" the below: "Guide to Get Ubuntu Display to work on Dell Mini 10" and make this work in Puppy? I'm currently using puppy 4.3 beta 3, but I'm asking if this can be done on any '4.xx' version of puppy. These guides are for enabeling the HD screen on the M...

I have pup-425 full install I'm trying to compile a module for my Broadcom 4312 wifi card I downloaded: devx_425.sfs kernel_src-2.6.30.5-patched.sfs4.sfs I then installed these to my full installation using this guide: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?search_id=76502136&t=22701 Post #6...

Edited, problem solved It now boots fine. :) Linux Mint wants to name the partitions "sda" Linux Mint also updated my Grub file last week. (Maybe this is why the other Puppy '4xx' versions wouldn't detect my hard drive) Puppy uses the partition named as "hda" I changed my menu.l...

I tried the non-SCSI version last night and it gave me the same error as above. I have to shut it down with the power button, by holding it down 8 seconds. After I posted in the "bugs" section, I realized that was probably the wrong place to post about computer problems. I would really lik...

See post #5 for solution. This is a full install of Puppy I'm trying this beta because 424 and this one (425) detects my hard drive on my Dell mini-10 netbook, and seems to run smoothly from the CD boot image. I tried 4.2.1 standard and my drive wasn't detected. BTW, what is the difference between ...

Deleted, posting in other section of forum

I got it working! :) I had previously set my keyboard function keys in BIOS to enable them as function keys instead of media keys. (these are dual keys accessed with 'FN') I read a post below on ubuntu forums "[SOLVED] Broadcom 4312 (BCM4312) 14e4:4315 STA Binary Driver HELP" http://ubuntu...

I just found a page that shows my card uses the b43 driver. http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#KnownPCIdevices using this command lspci -vnn | grep 14e4 I get this 03:00,0 Class 0280: 14e3:4315 (rev 01) According to the table there, it shows this for my card: PCI-ID State Chip Driver 14e4...

Back to my original question. Why doesn't puppy with the later 2.6.25.16 kernel detect my hard drive? I am trying puppy-413-NOP-r1 It has also got the 2.6.25.16 kernel. There is no hard drive detected. How can the 2.6.21.7 kernel versions detect the HDD when 2.6.25.16 kernel versions cannot? I have ...

I booted 412 standard from a USB stick, then installed "broadcom-5.10.27.14-k2.6.25.16.pet" The WL driver became available in network wizard -> load modules, so I loaded it and then eth1 became available. I then clicked "wireless" and scanned several times, and switching on/off t...

Firstly bear in mind that the wl driver may not work for your card. The package for kernel 2.6.25 also disables the ssb and b43 drivers....I believe if these still load they will interfere with the wl driver.... mike I used rmmod on ndiswrapper b43 ssb bcm43xx b43legacy None were previously loaded....

see 10th and 12th post for solution on this particular netbook I asked a kind soul to compile the below driver for me for 2.6.21.7 kernel. Broadcom BCM4312 802.11b/g 14e4:4315 STA Binary Driver I use the only "4" version of puppy that works on this netbook "412retro" He did and ...
