slacko-5.6 Final - plus testing next
Ram comparison PAE versus non-PAE
Hi Mick,
I upgraded my ram to 12GB and this is how it is shown in PAE versus non-PAE Slacko 5.6 versions which confirms that the PAE version is recognizing all ram as advertised. Thanks for this option. Jim

Thanks to 01micko and developers, I hope that you continue on this way, I don't like precise, I like slacko.
Thanks.

@Killapup.
I think I saw a problem similar to your problem. When I saw it, it was on an NTFS partition and the partition had gotten some corruption where at boot time, GRUB4DOS could NOT find files needed for boot even though they were present on that corrupted filesystem.
If you have a partition (USB/HDD) formatted for EXT2/EXT3/EXT4, and you move the frugal folders to that partition, you might see some changes. Of course, if you do so, you will need to make entries in your Grub4dos configuration to reflect where he is to look for your boot files on that partition.
Hope this helps

Hi Mick and other contributors,
I see that the 3.10.5 kernel in the PAE version has a number of new drivers, including the rtl818ee wifi driver, which is needed by forum member dbabits' Toshiba Satellite laptop -
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 934#736934
but I needed to help him out by contributing the missing firmware.
This is a common problem - new/updated drivers often require additional firmware, so maybe in the future I can help you access the very latest collection of official firmware ...
but in the meantime, the same forum member also requires the new alx driver for his Atheros ethernet device.
But I see this in the Slacko-5.6-PAE kernel config -
Can I ask that this new driver be enabled for the next release of 5.6-PAE?
And if the next release is some time away, could someone please just package this new module as a dotpet in the meantime?
Thanks.

Slacko 5.6.1
Do you want it all tested for bugs or just want to know if it generally works OK?
Well I am looking at the Internet and posting from it. I can see a working desktop. Icons seem to work OK.
Got this strange message.

The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.
