Got all those but can't find the headers is any of them???
Edit: ended not needing the kernel headers to compile a wifi driver.
I still don't see them in either the devx, kernel sources or the fdrv sfs files.
.
I do not know much about this technical question. In puppy the kernel sources sfs is all I have ever used to compile drivers: I suppose it is intended to contain the headers of the kernel and all you need to compile drivers. I never installed headers of the kernel standing alone. Any puppy comes only with the base iso, the devx sfs to compile and the kernel sources sfs to compile drivers.
Was just testing my Stretch 7.5 dotfiles in RC3...
The following package should probably be installed by default:
ncurses-term_6.0+20161126-1+deb9u2
Without it, when I set $TERM to a 256 color setting, like xterm-256color (or mlterm-256color in my case),
then it causes errors... Typing 'clear' and hitting enter might bring up the error msg...
Without being able to set a term to 256 colours, editors like Vim and Micro dont work as expected, and code
highlighting by programs like ranger, Pygments, bat (and others) dont work..
...Long story short, I installed ncurses-term_6.0, then set TERM=mlterm-256color ..
And now my terminal programs work OK again...

From perdido's rtl8812au-5.1.5_k4.1.48.pet I will include the following in the 4.1.48 iso of RC4:
/lib/modules/4.1.48/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8812au.ko

Hi radky,
Just a follow up on virtualbox... I booted a fresh RC3 and tried following your instructions as I understood them:
1. I used "SFS Load on-the-fly" to load the "kernel-sources-4.9.131-stretch.sfs" and the devx
2. I installed the VirtualBox .deb from their website for i386
3. I run the command you gave me ... But I got...
Not sure what I am doing wrong.. Probably something dumb..
Thanks for the ListDD tip... I hadn't seen that!
BTW, if Pkg is installed, you can also do this in the terminal:
pkg ldd <pkgname>
(where <pkgname> is an installed package:)
... which is probably broken.. so I might steal your ListDD code for Pkg
----
norgo, thanks for the info, I will try your instructions and downloads next time round to see if that works..
-----
I really would like to know how to build the modules myself tho...
Just to know what I'm doing wrong and learn something..
Ideally I wanna build a headless-only Vbox package, and just use vbox,sh to manage the VMs ...
.. then re-build it on different pups..
Cheers

Make sure the kernel sources match the kernel in use. For example, Dpup Stretch 7.5 RC3 is available in two iso formats, one with the 4.1.48 kernel and one with 4.9.101. The corresponding kernel sources are available in the first post of this thread.
Note: RC4 (not yet released) will have an updated 4.9.X kernel, possibly 4.9.135.

Since you plan on changing kernels in next release here are the sources

touchpad driver
I've done a frugal install of rc3 on two different laptops. When I open FbBox Control Center>Hardware>Touchpad a message opens saying that the Synaptics driver is not loaded. These are laptops that other Puppies load the drivers.
Thanks
Thanks

pschedule 1.1.6 not working after reboot in rc3
A task created in pschedule will run correctly in that session, but will not run after reboot. I found this topic that discusses this issue:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... b0d68ccbf7
Using information from that I found that pschedule started buzybox crond when the task is created but does not restart buzybox crond after a reboot. I fixed the problem by putting the script file cron_start.sh in the Startup directory.
There are probably better ways to fix it, but this one is simple and works.

@wathcdog
That worked perfect, thanks
@radky
Should this be detected and loaded on install?

While in Dpup Stretch, please run the following in a terminal and post the output.
Code: Select all
egrep -i 'synap|alps|etps|elan' /proc/bus/input/devices

Synaptics touchpad driver
Hi radky,
I think I found the synaptics driver problem and it is my fault. Normally when adopting a new Puppy I set it all up on my desktop computer, remaster it and then install that on the other computers. This time I could not successfully remaster rc3 so when I installed it to the laptops I also copied the save file from the desktop. I 'm pretty sure that kept puppy from finding the touchpad device and loading the driver.
To test it I booted one of the laptops without the save file and it did find the touchpad and load the driver.
Let me know if you still want me to test with the egrep code you sent.
Thanks

Both of perdido's pets work without a reboot needed for this Simplecom.
rtl8812au-5.1.5_k4.1.48.pet
rtl8812au_rtl8821au-4.3.20_k4.1.48.pet
for Simplecom NW601 Wireless USB
were tested by me twice -- booting in a pristine Stretch,
I Turned off the start screen.
Enabled firewall and
Next did the sound level
And I had no Lan cable in the desktop at bootup.
The usb device was not connected either.
I installed the above pet by perdido.
Different clean boots...different Pets to see if this method
worked each time for each file.
I did not Save and Reboot
Instead I hit ...Control -Alt - Backspace together
to go to the prompt.
Then I typed >>>> Xwin and hit >>> Enter
and came back to the desktop
I then plugged in the Simplecom wifi usb.
Then I Setup Networking >> Wired or Wireless
and Selected Frisbee
Which came up with Wireless networks showing very quickly
Added my password...and it took about 10 seconds to
be enabled and connected.
As stated I did this no save method twice with a pristine Stretch.
So you can save or not save.
But to work with a no SAVE to do plug in the device until
after installing and coming back to the desktop from
the prompt.
Again thanks...now even better this way.
