Thanks backi.
For everyone's information, mistfire is providing other references to other articles

Would anyone know if this snafu is affecting peebee's ArtfulPup?
BFN.

If someone looks at the actual bug report, is clear that the Ubuntu-17.10-bricks-some-Lenovo-laptops bug, does not affecet Artfulpup.
The problematic driver (intel_spi) does not even exist in the 4.9.x kernel artfulpup is using.

Question Re: Ubuntu-17.10-bricks-some-Lenovo-laptops: (sorry for being off-topic)
I'm experimenting with Bionic (Dog) development version, it has kernel 4.13 (some kernel package version of 4.13 should be affected by this terrible bug, don't know which one, they only say it's fixed in 4.13.0-21.24)
When I check if some "intel-spi-*" driver is loaded on my Bionic, there's none
EDIT: Forgot to mention that some intel-spi-* .ko driver modules do exist in /lib/modules... (but apparently not loaded?).
Code: | root@live:~# lsmod | grep spi
mptspi 24576 0
scsi_transport_spi 32768 1 mptspi
mptscsih 40960 2 mptsas,mptspi
mptbase 102400 3 mptscsih,mptsas,mptspi
root@live:~# lsmod | grep intel
snd_hda_intel 40960 1
snd_hda_codec 126976 4 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec_analog,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_codec_generic
snd_hda_core 81920 5 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_codec_analog,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_codec_generic
snd_pcm 98304 4 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_core,snd_hda_codec_hdmi
snd 81920 13 snd_hda_intel,snd_hwdep,snd_seq,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_codec_analog,snd_timer,snd_rawmidi,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_codec_generic,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm |
(on HP Compaq 6710b laptop, no BIOS corruption has happened)
My guess is that there is no such danger of BIOS corruption if no intel-spi-* module is loaded, but I could be wrong, any thoughts ?
Thanks,
Fred

PuppyOCR does the job Intalled in Artfulpup Subject description: Files Fr added in Hunspell for OCR old texts and spell check with Abiword |

This driver is not needed by Artfulpup users, is it ?
"The problematic driver (intel_spi) does not even exist in the 4.9.x kernel artfulpup is using."
Pupsaveconfig added,
Intensive daily usage of Artfulpup to write the Story of 'Afrique', a ship like Titanic, Departure to Africa from Bordeaux 1920 With 580 passengers on board.. Quite an Indiana Jones story.

Again, sorry for being off-topic in my previous post , and NOTE: there's NO danger for ArtfulPup at all ! (as said, the intel_spi driver does not exist in Artfulpup indeed AND IS NOT NEEDED)
(just thought someone with more knowledge than me could answer question about the 4.13 kernel bug subject, which is btw already answered by pemasu in Xenialdog thread)

@mavrothal has reported: Quote: | aplay, used in pmusic, crashes if you pause playback so you can not resume | in the dpup-stretch thread.
For me, playback does resume if the Play/Pause button is clicked twice....
@radky has determined that: Quote: | the problem in Dpup was immediately fixed after I copied usr/lib/libasound.so.2.0.0 from xenialpup-7.5. |
Please test if the issue is fixed in ArtfulPup by installing:
zz_libasound2_xenial-1.1.0.pet
Thanks

It solves the crash-after-pause issue but regenerates the flac-gives-white-noise issue...
You may consider a (n spi_intel fixed) 4.13.0 kernel (a thought you had one from LxPupSc) to see if this works with native artful ubuntu packages.
Latter: ffmpeg 2.8.13 with the libasound xenial (1.1.0? ) appear to work in both pause and flac. Though the downgrading to "xenial sound" may give other problems elsewhere.

ArtfulPup-17.11+8....with zz_ .pet installed - no problem playing the test .flac file - no white noise....
Tried kernel 4.14.9-lxpup64 - same behaviour.
Error message from pmusic with libasound2-1.1.3-5 is:
aplay: xrun:1624: read/write error, state = RUNNING

mtpaint |

The current version of mtpaint 3.49.13-4 (I believe it's 13-4) at any rate, the version now in your current +8... It won't load .gif graphics, other graphic extensions seem OK.

Many thanks
Also applies to mtpaint in XenialPup-7.5
mtpaint from Xenial requires libgif.so.4 and this is provided as a link to libgif.so.7 in both XenialPup and ArtfulPup, but this is not sufficient.
Can be fixed by installing mtpaint from slacko:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pet_packages-slacko14.2/mtpaint-3.49.12-i686_s700.pet
which has been built against libgif.so.7
or by copying libgif.so.4.1.6 from TahrPup and remaking the link to libgif.so.4
Will be fixed in next update.

When mtpaint will save a GIF format , but won't open GIF files then
it has been compiled on a distro that had a different version of libgif
Here is my experience with compiling mtpaint in fatdog linux to obtain
a version that would run in stretch.
