Modem update package 3 |
|
I have added a new capability to the modem update package on page 2 of this thread. It supports USB modems that do not need their mode switched after the initial switch to modem mode. This requires the usb_modeswitch 1.1.4 package. Please try 1.1.4 (and related data base update -20100826) and this fix if your modem does not work after a "warm boot" (a restart, instead of shutdown and boot) with the modem still plugged in from the previous session.
The "-3" package is here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=461900#461900
The usb_modeswitch packages are here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=431074#431074

Having NIC problems with W0.9.4. Got boxloads of RTL8139D cards, but cannot get them auto nor manually detected, using the loaded modules. Green light is ON. 8139C nor 8139too drivers don't work. 8139D is utterly ubiquitous; expected it to be the default RTL module in the list? Is this an oversight or have I got other issues with this Intel chipset/cpu?!

update on wary 094 crash. |
|
As stated in previous posts I've had a couple of serious crashes which appear to be related to sound (dell PC) so I decided to try it on an older Gateway PC.
Audio Adapter : ICH - Intel 82801AA-ICH
Everything worked except the sound icon had a big red X over it-no sound. It would appear that my PCs and Wary don't like each other. I'll look forward to the next Wary release with interest.
BTW: Both PCs are working away happily on Lupu 5.1.1-Irishrm.

With red x on sound; right click icon > full window > turn up

Hi rerwin
I installed the new modem_update_to_wary094-woof-3.pet and still no modem found L
I got 094 so messed up that I used unetboot and did a clean install of the 094.iso to my usb stick. Now things get complicated (sorry).
I booted up puppy 4.21 to see why it worked with my modem and what it used for the modem. Well 4.21 sees the modem as ttySL0 so I booted up 094 and added the slamr module using bootmanager and rebooted but pupdial > prode still did not find the modem so I manually added the /dev/ttySL0 to wvdial and then tried pupdial again and of course the modem was listed so I used the test modem button and the modem DID respond but errors out when I try to dial.

RTL8139D NIC problems turned out to be artefactual, although I was unable to pinpoint the exact cause of issues reported above. Notwithstanding, the xxxxD driver isn't specifically mentioned in the list like the xxxxC, even though it proved unnecessary.
James C : NIC chip type is clearly written on top of the chip - usually don't even need a magnifier to read it for Realtek devices.

Interesting location for the 'official wary' Firefox install... opt! Trying it because yahoo mail hangs on Seamonkey sometimes. I think it is a Yahoo problem, and given the heritage, Firefox is unlikely to be better, but hey, one has to try

new wacom driver and modified mtpaint |
|
I tested Barry's new wacom driver that he compiled for Wary
AVAILABLE HERE
I love it . Perfect. I don't have the problems that I still have in Lucid Puppy.
On a related subject...
I received a modified version of mtpaint 3.34.56 from the
maintainer Dimitri Groshev that was compiled in Slack Linux.
He made some quick changes in the method used for mouse position
in the mtpaint window and he succeeded. No problems
now in pressure sensitivity.
He asked me to test it. It works perfectly in Wary except for one minor
flaw...it wouldn't launch. I launched the terminal and typed
The terminal gave the message 'libtiff.so.4 not found'. So I made a
link to the older version of libtiff I found in /usr/lib/.
mtpaint now launches and works very well.
If you want to try out this application, here's
a download site...
http://www.datafilehost.com/download-ebf11bdd.html
Post any bugs you find.

Thanks for testing it.
The PET that I created has some utilities in it, I wonder if they would be useful to you?
Ah, I have already upgraded mtPaint to 3.34.56, so I will do it again, thanks for that too.

Ah, it isn't here, this is where I got the source from last time:
https://github.com/wjaguar/mtPaint/archives/master
So Dimitri has done an unofficial patch? I guess that if it tests out ok, it will go into the main source.
