there is a known Kernel bug
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201685#c174
Change Kernel and check whether errors are still present.

Additional there are really a lot of libevent and device/input/event error messages

Thanks for testing.
There does appear to be a difference in the mouse buttons.
This is something new that I've never seen.

Previous puppies --> the left and right buttons went in opposite directions.

Realtek Wireless Drivers

#168 Post by chiefengineer »

I have a need for both of these. I have compiled and run them happily
under other Linuxes but always prefer Fatdog (of course). One is internal and
the other a USB dongle...the GIT repositories I used required DKMS.

I must admit I am a little hesitant to just start blindly compiling for this
distro, especially if someone has either already done it, or if someone
can just instruct me to install kernel headers, BC, etc., and go for it?

In particular this helps a Dell Netbook and a Lenovo IdeaPad that have
become mine in the last year.

chiefengineer,

There is a 8812au driver included. There's several 8812au drivers out there. The one we included worked the best for the folks on team Fatdog that have that device, hopefully it works for you too. We don't have the 8821ce, if you post a link to the source we may include it if it builds and isn't too huge. If you want to compile your own you'll need the devx and kernel source sfs installed.

http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/pre-re ... x_800a.sfs

http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/sfs/80 ... 4.19.1.sfs

BTW, we will be upgrading the kernel to the latest 4.19.x for the next release. Any kernel modules (drivers) that you compile will have to be recompiled for the new kernel in the next release.

...I couldn't get the 8812AU to show up in WPA_GUI and it didn't light so
I assumed it wasn't recognized. After you said this I manually brought it
up and restarted the connection with same result...maybe I have to put the internal down first or something (I'll play with it...I can do an iwlist scan with it so it is up but unlit).

The files I cloned/compiled were for Arch but they cross-compiled for the kernel
4.18.0-kali2-amd64 without error after I installed BC:
https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce

When researching these files I noticed there were a lot of vendors making this
their internal laptop card now. If you guys don't do it I'll have a hand at it...but I
live in a quick and dirty world where compiling is concerned.

@ WB7ODYFred Hello Fred
A couple of us here have a odroid XU4 'sitting on the shelf' and a couple of us also have a Pi B3+
If you could convert FD 800 to arm64 that can be then converted to Berryboot image and there would a application at Berryboot for your Nano and our Pi's as well.

Here is a Quirky that works with berryboot
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=108132

Here is easy 0.9.3 arm64 from BK that berryboot dont know what to do with.

http://bkhome.org/news/201809/easyos-09 ... ry-pi.html

Don570 has a Fatdog headless from odroid xu4 converted to Pi b3+ using berryboot. err, it looks like its from berryboot.
But its two years old and needs a lot of work, best you work with 800.

Do a trial run with Quirky 6 arm with berryboot to see what you have to do to FD 800 to make an image.

Replacement Kernel vmlinuz file. 4.19.6+ or greater

#172 Post by WB7ODYFred »

Hello, I am patient, but this kernel error is making it difficult to use and test Fatdog64 800a version. I only have a usb flash drive that is loaded with Fatdog64 800a. This laptop has no hard disk drive and no battery.

This kernel error keeps putting the CPU into %100 load and making it wait (puts many pauses into the work flow).

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment. ... ction=edit
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201685

So, I am asking if someone can make a newer version of the kernel that fixes this problem I detailed out on the previous page 11 of this forum thread. I would like to just replace the kernel file vmlinuz ?? (Dont' always know what that entails. Or if I am asking for the correct method to fix my useage problem)I have the kernel source SFS files 4.19.1 that is mounted in the /mnt/home directory. I was just change directory to /usr/src/linux-4.19.1/ directory and issuing a make command to see if I could build the exact same vmlinuz file. Then patch the source to fix my one problem and rebuild the newer vmlinuz kernel file. I am learning but have encountered some errors, that I am researching how to fix.

If James Bond, or Kirk or someone else, can create a replacement vmlinuz file that can make my useage flow. I would use that vmlinuz.
I am not asking much. I will continue to learn and move forward on fixing it myself. Just post a tarred replacement vmlinuz kernel. and I will ftp or wget download it and end up with a more usefull FD800A, that I can use as a base development system to work on porting FD800A to Arm64 64bit quad core NanoPi2 or maybe a ASUS Tinkerboard.

Barrys https://EasyOS.org is looking good to test out an ARM64 hardware.

Thanks for read. Really enjoy FD64800A, for its operational ability.
The MTP browser app lets me connect to a Motorola E5 smart phone.
Good Job
Yes I will be patient until a new beta .ISO comes out like Fatdog64 800b. I appreciate what you have already provided.
Fred Finster wb7ody

I am reading and studying James Bonds entries for help in building FatdogArm for myself for the learning experience and direction to build with Arm64..

1. Web Browser playback lags on "ACEPC T5": I tried to configuration at Sound (3rd - sound instead of 1st/2nd - mutes) then in a YouTube will be strongly lags of sounds...
2. Beside in Wi-Fi configuration it's a fail of a "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not permitted"

Maybe your WiFi card is off?
Check this in Control Panel -> Network -> Wireless Antenna.
Or in terminal:

Code: Select all

rfkill list all

Booted into Beta

Found the save folder from Alpha.

I still have the slow initrd & grub4dos setup. Beta boots much faster than alpha in this setup. Fast enough to not bother changing (for me)

Everything is working fine otherwise so far.

Take it as a "no fancy satin ribbon recycle newpaper wrapped Xmas gift",a test of a Freecad-daily-fatdog800b-tahr sfs(read more), a test that it can be done the ubuntu way,it come with free imperfections ...i had to try once.

Issue in GIMP.

If you select the Write tool, and then select the font, and scroll down with the mouse scroll wheel, it crashes.

testing Fatdog beta

#184 Post by foxpup »

I like the simplicity of Puppy's simple running as root. So I've been hesitating to use Fatdog. It didn't run well on my very old PC in the old times anyway.
The articles of James however made me very curious, so I installed it on my almost new i5 laptop.

I was very surprised at how fast and easy it runs on this machine. Next to Tazpuppy it must be the fastest I have tried yet!

One remark on booting. It boots up very slowly on rEFInd directly. Maybe because I left everything in initrd. It doesn't matter because I boot with grub2 anyway.

I only could find 2 minor bugs so far:

In the event manager, I set RAM save interval to 0. It says that "save RAM layer" button should be on the desktop, but it is not.

I've been looking how to set keyboard shortcuts. In Help, the link on the bottom of "Basic keyboard shortcuts",
"Sven Multimedia Keyboard daemon", links to "Tray icons". That is not right and it does not help me.

I tested the 800 beta. So far everything is working.

I tested Mypaint , Gimp 2.10.9 appimage and blender 2.79b
https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-ap ... 4.AppImage

I did a save to folder.
When I rebooted without the name of the save folder it searched
in partitions and listed old save folders that I had used with previous fatdogs. Good.
