PGRS MODEM SETUP in precise & slacko
GSM modem ZTE WCDMA Technologies MSM MF110/MF627/MF636 problem
in precise 5.4.3 and slacko 5.4 (kernel 3.2.33 )I have tested modem huawei E173 (it worked out of the box ) but encountered modem address detect problem
for modem ZTE MF627. If the E173 modem creates only one /dev/ttyUSB0 serial modem and it is correctly discovered by PGRS MODEM SETUP, the ZTE MF627 modem creates 3 devices
/dev/ttyUSB0 , /dev/ttyUSB1, /dev/ttyUSB2 ( and only the first one is detected and the wrong one by the PGRS MODEM SETUP). in my case the good device was /dev/ttyUSB2.
If I put in 'Serial Modem Device File' /dev/ttyUSB2 , it worked fine. This problem was discussed by ubuntu people too, their opinion was that the right device should be detected
frome where it points the symlink /dev/gsmmodem .... I know that modifying the PGRS MODEM script could generate new bugs but an explicative text for this ZTE modems could help many people
, or at first step only to extend "(detected devices:/dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/ttyS0 )" to include also where it points /dev/gsmmodems too.
It also looks like the gsm modem stoping script not functioning proper, i could not simply close the network (by riht click& Disconect from network won't work), in slacko was easy I could
close the terminal window which remained open by the ppp PAP script on connect.
please send this observation to the maintainer of PGRS MODEM SETUP

Re: Pudd is confused by menus containing more than ten items
Thanks, your fix plus more applied, see here:npierce wrote:(This bug is not limited to Precise 5.4.3, but I'm adding a link in this thread because it is in Woof, and Precise 5.4.3 is the latest Puppy built from Woof. I suspect that the bug actually lives in all Puppies that contain Pudd.)

Re: xload twice
Hmmm, yes. OK, fixed.phdzaps wrote:My single thing I can report on is that xload in /usr/bin ought to be a link, since it is also in /usr/X11R7/bin. I came across this because I disable xload so precise will run on older computers faster.

I think Precise 5.4.3 has FFConvert 1.3.Brown Mouse wrote:FFConvert appears to be broken for me.
Unable to change the compression ratio of mp3's as in previous versions of FFC..
The latest is 1.3.1, there is also an older "stable" version.
Would you mind going here and install the latest, if no good try the older stable version:

Yes, wcpufreq has a bug. This is TaZoc's baby, but TaZoc has had health issues, not sure of current situation.
Anyway, I fixed it, see new PET version 0.8.1:

Pschedule is zigbert's baby. There will be a later version in the next release of Precise Puppy (and all other Woof-built pups).
If the problem persisits, report in the Pschedule Forum thread.

Nice catch, MHHP. That's it!MinHundHettePerro wrote:LC_NUMERIC, decimal comma versus decimal point?
/MHHP
Attached is a modified version of pupx (based on the current pupx-0.3.pet in the noarch repository) that should work.
I also made some changes to allow commas as decimal points in the keyboard delay value, and the screen-saver delay and cycle values. Note that only integers are accepted by xset, so there is no point in using a decimal point for those values, but just in case a user tries to use one, pupx rounds the value down so that xset will be passed an acceptable value and not fail. I haven't changed that -- I just changed it to allow commas to be used in addition to periods, which were already supported.
For the combo box lists for the mouse acceleration & threshold values, pupx now uses the decimal point character of the current locale. But for the other values, pupx now accepts either a period or a comma, no matter what the current locale is. That way if a user has become used to the fact that pupx always wanted a period for a decimal point, the period won't suddenly stop working. And a look at the couple of hundred locals supported by Puppy, I found no locale that used anything other than a period or a comma for a non-monetary decimal point, so there should be no surprises there.

can the chat icon on the desktop be a link to chatzilla instead of ayttm.
i help out on puppychat, and trying to direct people to relevant information on the forum is infuriating if they are using ayttm, as ayttm still crashes on links and right clicking.
cheers

Barry,
Thanks for taking the frisbee infrastructure packages and pdiag.

Thanks for taking the frisbee infrastructure packages and pdiag.
Its --help option explains it.Barry, in his blog, wrote:Pdiag was developed while integrating Frisbee into Puppy, but I don't know if there is one "home" page that describes Pdiag.
- # pdiag --help
Usage: pdiag [option]
--help This small usage guide
--wpa Include WPA encryption data if user allows
Default action is to collect configuration, status and log files into a
compressed archive (tarball) named such as pdiag-20130209.tar.gz
in your root or home directory.
That file can be submitted to Puppy developers for analysis and possible problem
resolution.
Additional diagnostic data can be collected by a script segment (no #!/bin/sh)
named beginning with "pdiag-" in /usr/lib/pdiag/, using $DIAGSUBDIR as the
output directory.
To facilitate debugging and troubleshooting, anything logged to /tmp/debug.log
will be included in the tarball.
