can't run lupu525lite on virtual box!! (because the kernel).

can run via pxeboot to client computers. Can run inkscape portable, can run firefox 3.6.
But, can not detect my LAN.
My hardware : amd sempron 140, pci : nVidia Corporation MCP61 ethernet (rev a2). I try with dhcpcd, I try network setup, but can not identify LAN, and need load module? No problem with lupu520.

include the zdrv, and can detect my LAN. So, the module at the zdrv.
Fast desktop indeed.

any reason why the btusb driver is being left out of the 2.6.38.4 builds? is there a way to get it back in?

stifiling. No reason. It was forgotten. All other usb modules were selected, btusb was left out. Just selection error - human error - or something else.
I will compile btusb as installable pet package for lupe22 kernel. I wont support afterwards previous kernels because lupe22 was important upgrade in many ways. If missing modules are found, I appreciate if you report them.
Thanks.

For kernel lupe22 missing bluetooth usb modules are now compilded and I have reuploaded the lupe22 kernel.

i'm using this iso http://smokey01.com/stu90/lupu-525-02.iso.

the bluetooth pet says, with dmesg, it was compiled with CORE..and not ATOM...and therefore won't load.

i wonder if i'm just having a usb issue. my bt adapter won't even come on. it lights right up using 2.6.30.5....using 38.4, it doesn't even light up. like it's reading it wrong. lsusb usually shows 4 IDs for this adapter:
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0a5c:4500
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0a5c:4502
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 0a5c:4503
Bus 003 Device 005: ID 0a5c:2120

38.4 kernel only shows 1:
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0a5c:4500

stifiling. That update is for lupe22 kernel. I am afraid your iso uses earlier version. Lupe22 is now the most promising in this 2.6.38.4 kernel series. All the so far posted problems are fixed in it. I posted the pet as reminder that the module update has been done. I dont compile modules for earlier versions. Anyone who wants to do that, needs to compile the modules himself. I encourage to use lupe22 in these experimental builds.

Hi Pemasu - thanks for the lupe22 kernel update.

-------------------

hello Stifiling - if i recall right lupu-525-02 is using an older lupu19 kernel build and not the latest lupe22

I haven't got round to making a lucid lite build with the lupe22 kernel yet - currently i am undecided which way i want to go with lucid lite.
For the last week or so i have been using a lucid build with Iguleder's 2.6.32-40-lts kernel - this might be a more conservative approach than the cutting edge kernels but for me it has been stable, is light on resources and the audio just works.

I have made a build with Pemasu's lupe22 kernel but that was with debain Squeezed puppy and not Lucid puppy - initial impressions are good and no audio problems, as it is using the latest woof there is a few important updates applied and there is also the option to use fido - so i dunno, maybe i will make a D-lite puppy with lupe22

cheers.

Hi stu,

Was giving up on lite 4 because did not see sticks on hub, even when hardware info saw it.

Then saw pemasu's pet, however does not make any diff.

Any idea ?

Frugal install of 2.6.32-40 version on my old P4 test box......sure doesn't use much ram.

The smokey01 link on first page, and the one for version
004 a few pages from the end, no longer work. Someone
please post the latest link (at start of topic) and maybe
also correct the others.

I discovered that lupu 5.2.5 (regular kernel) detects and
loads my orinoco_cs pcmcia cards (internal and external)
but 5.2.8.6 and 5.2.8-05 (plus) do not. I would prefer
a 'lite' version for my 2001 900MHz Satellite 3000-S353
upgraded to 512MB memory. PIII. Don't use modem so no
need for retro kernel. (Wish it had hda instead of sda).

Is there any major advantage of 5.2.6 lite for older hardware?

Pulp (4.1.2 based with gtk1 and no ROX) works fine but I want
gtk-youtube-viewer. Flash/browser too cpu intensive.
Also Firefox newer than 17 is sometimes needed.
