Hello ttuuxxx.

Thanks a lot for the Package.

Have just booted puppy in ram with "puppy pfix=ram" and installed the Git Pet Package that you provided.

For some reason this package is also broken.
It report the same error like the git in the devx sfs.


Quote:
# git pull
/usr/libexec/git-core//git-pull: line 184: exec: git-merge: not found


Will now download a early devx file that has worked for me and look what for files differ in the git-core folder.

Thanks a lot for the Help.
Greetings ARAN

I bashed together a fix for the broken man pages that restores 99% functionality

@ARAN that's strange. I don't whether git is included in puppy430 or in the devx (which I have installed) but for me git is working just fine out of the box. Actually I'm using "git clone" but I just tested "git pull" and works well without any message of something missing.

Hello Michalis.

Thank you a lot for your clarification !
I can confirm that git is not in puppy and also not in devx.
The strange thing is that before i have upgraded Puppy i had a full working git. Dont know anymore where this package i have downloaded.

It would be very helpful if you could try to execute also git-merge
http://linux.die.net/man/1/git-merge

I get this error message here if i do that inside /usr/libexec/git-core
Quote:
# ./git-merge
bash: git-merge: command not found


Normally this command should exist like all other programms too.
As a example "git commit -a" works great. changes can be commited to the tree. For some reason "git-merge" however is missing.

The place where git-merge get in action is in the File
/usr/libexec/git-core/git-pull

Quote:
merge_name=$(git fmt-merge-msg $log_arg <"$GIT_DIR/FETCH_HEAD") || exit
test true = "$rebase" &&
exec git-rebase $strategy_args --onto $merge_head \
${oldremoteref:-$merge_head}
exec git-merge $no_stat $no_commit $squash $no_ff $log_arg $strategy_args \
"$merge_name" HEAD $merge_head


I assume the reason why you dont get a merge error is maybe that git has nothing to merge !

This Files or command should somehow work inside /usr/libexec/git-core

Okay with the very smart Guys at the git IRC channell i could fix the Bug.

The Problem is really that the Git Packages for Puppy Linux are Broken.
Even the one that ttuxxx posted it is also broken.

The Bug is that the Pet packages have in the folder /usr/libexec/git-core
about 95 system links missing to the git binary.

It looks like that the pet create scripts dont pay attention to symlinks

Here is a file list of of a complete git-core folder
http://pastie.org/635088

As you can see "git-merge" but also "git-diff", "git-fetch", "git-add" ... that point to git binary are all missing !

I have solved my problem with this command here in the terminal

Quote:
ln /usr/bin/git /usr/libexec/git-core/git-merge


The symlinks should be created while building git from sources with the following command. For me the Pet Create Packages are Broken as they dont include the symlinks that are needed.

make prefix=/usr INSTALLDIRS=vendor DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" install quick-install-man

Two observations:

1. cdparanoia segfaults in both 4.3 main and small kernel 2.6.30.5. It does not segfault in 4.3 main kernel 2.6.25.16.

2. Ripoff consistently dies in mid full-disk rip. It's cpu utilization then goes from ~1% to 90+% and the process must be killed. Observed in all tested 4.30 final releases.

usually petget does an excellent job at making system links, actually this is the first time that I've read that it didn't work right. I would be blaming git developers. I've compiled just about everything like gcc,qt,xorg,wx,alsa, etc and not once did I have an issue like that, I've used another git I compiled on 2.14X 2 days ago to download some sources and it work, So its a strange thing then.
I guess I'll have to recompile a few others later on Smile
Thanks for the how to Smile

PostPosted: Tue 29 Sep 2009, 13:34    Post subject: Re: No sound on Gateway laptop
Subject description: May be related to multiple driver associations for same modem device		  
The referenced thread provides much info on this sound problem and leads me to suspect a modem-driver conflict. The sound board is 8086:24c5, although no one has posted the modem ID. But I see in the modules.alias file three listings for a modem ID 8086:34c6, which supports the observations of an Intel, SmartLink and Conexant (HSF) driver. All three support that ID, which I would guess is what is in the laptops. (Waiting for confirmation.) That narrows down the problem and is manageable!

I suspect the SmartLink (slamr) is superfluous, since the Intel driver results in use of the SmartLink logic (daemon). But the HSF-driver's claim on the modem is surprising. Fortunately, this issue does not seem to involve the snd-hda-intel driver, which is what got modified for 4.3.

Since I have accepted responsibility for modem support, I will look into it. I would like to find a way to discriminate the HSF from the non-HSF modems with that ID. There are more IDs associated with the devices, that show up in the log file: /tmp/udevtrace.log. If each Gateway loptop user in the referenced thread could attach that file to a posting or PM to me, that would help. Thanks.
Richard

UPDATE: To get the best advice (and a lot more), the linmodem group provides a utility to analyze your modem situation, scanModem. I have put the latest version into a dotpet for ease of installation and removal. Click on the dotpet to install it, then click on the "console" icon and enter:
./scanModem
(that is dot slash. . . and upper-case M)

The results appear in (/root/) Modem/ModemData.txt. That file will probably recommend the correct driver to use. You will probably end up blacklisting slamr and hsfmc97ich, to let snd-intel8x0m grab the modem (assuming the IDs are as I guessed).

I think there may be a problem with the network wizard.
I have just looked at the wpa conf file in /etc/network-wizard/wireless/wpa_profiles and it contains over 4000 lines -- it seems the psk gets copied to the wpa config file every time wpa_supplicant runs? (I'm guessing willdly)

this is on my acer aspire one

approximately 1 in five shut downs stop at a screen with small rectangular white/grey windows arranged in about 15-20 rows on a black background. requires a hard shutdown to complete.
had seen this only occasionally in previous puppys.
doesn't cause any problems. just the improper shut down screen displays on reboot.

@aarf and paulh177

That might be something to do with what 'gyro' was talking about earlier in this thread whare the pupsave is not cleanly being unmounted. Just a guess.

rerwin,
Attached file has the info you asked for from:
4.30 full (no sound)
4.30 small (sound)
4.03 (sound)
4.31.1 I got working

I have not tested connecting with the modem in any of them.
Let me know if there is any other info I can give.

I also can confirm this.I can't say one of five, but it's more often than in earlier Puppies or upup. It seems to appear randomly or I didn't found out any system when it happens.

I don't think it has something to do with pupsave is not cleanly being unmounted because the system hangs before something is saved to the pupsave file.

So if I install something or change settings I save it with the save button on the desktop. After that it doesn't matter whether the system hangs at shutdown or not.

Ripoff died here too, but no CPU spikes.
