I ran the 3D demo in hurt me plenty and get a fps of 40-41.
that is a good value.
Also your Xorg.0.log looks good.
It is not needed to install anything else, it should run out of the box.
I don't see, why it does not work for you.

One thing I found in Xorg.0.log:
(II) RADEON(0): Detected total video RAM=32768K, accessible=65536K (PCI BAR=131072K)
Maybe in /etc/X11/xorg.conf you could add
videoram 65536
after the line
Driver "ati"

Apart from that, no idea at moment...

Concerning keyboard:
On another computer, I encountered strange keyboard-behaviour caused by "xsetnumlock", that is launched from /root/.xinitrc

I will remove that line and rebuild the iso somewhen this week.
If someone has the same problem, try to remove that line with leafpad.

Thank you Mark,

I have now:
(II) RADEON(0): Detected total video RAM=32768K, accessible=65536K (PCI BAR=131072K)
(II) RADEON(0): Video RAM override, using 65536 kB instead of 32768 kB
(**) RADEON(0): Mapped VideoRAM: 65536 kByte (64 bit DDR SDRAM)
(II) RADEON(0): Color tiling enabled by default
(II) Loading sub module "ddc"
in xorg.0.log.
I suppose this looks better now and will retry.

As for the keyboard, I do a setting for the xkeyboard.
I get my Belgian keyboard, but it doesn't seem to stick.
Could be however that I had a freeze and that I had to power off.

I'll let know about the games.
Puppy Linux 2.02 SMkey, KDE354mini, wine0.9.20, devx-qt-renamed.
Puppy Linux 2.10r1 SMkey, JWM, devx_qt_renamed_210, KDE355mini

I then tried doo1, but after selecting the scenario and the level it died.
I then got the idea ti active swapt and tried doom1 again.
It's working now. Didn't kill too many monsters yet. :wink:

Finished the download and booted up on my Thinkpad T40, 1.5ghz (though I was running from battery, so the system underclocked itself to ~600mhz), 512mb RAM, Radeon 7500, 1gb swap.

Doom 1 ran fairly smoothly with 3D. I had never played Doom in real 3D, it was kind of cool. The music sounded a little different than I remember, but I think it's stored as a MIDI, so that is to be expected.

Tux Racer also ran smoothly. I didn't really get to anything else, because I got drawn into Doom and wasted all my free time yesterday.

Great collection!

yeah, it can take some weeks, to finish all the mods :)

I still could not finish them all myself.
When I made the iso, I played again 1-2 days, but when I created the dotpups, several weeks.
And there is more to come, not all mods I have are included, and neither is quake 1 with really large mods like Nehahra. That has the size of a full Quake game.

I'll make that CD somewhen in the second half of 2008 :)

Yes, the Doom-music is midy, played with the instrument-banks of timidity.

Glad you like it,
Mark

Hi MU, not bad, just tried this. Probably not my style of games (not into violence), but I like the setup and configuration of this puppy. Issues for me come down to mainly size, and it being really slow on my machine. Am assuming this is a ram issue? My Specs:
ATI Radeon graphics card, 512mb of ram, and 3.0 ghz processor.

Big games (quake, doom, tuxracer, etc) all ran very slowly, though the smaller ones seemed all right. Also, noticed that when I set games to fullscreen mode, when I exited from them, I would be dumped at the command line, having to restart X. Cheers.

dinky,
it should run quite fast on your machine.
I have a pentium 700 with 1 gig Ram, and a Ati Radeon 9250.
On the screenshot you can see by looking at Conky, that it has just low neeed of Ram, so 512 MB should be fine.

You could try this libGL.so:

For your Ati-card, you also might have more success with propriatary Ati-drivers.

For older ones (Radeon 7000 to 9250):

Thanks Mark, will try this again soon! Incidentally, have you tried the Mupen64 project? Nintendo 64 emulator, very easy to run. Have been having lots of fun with it of late.

Ok, quick question. Would it be possible to run this straight from the CD and simply save system settings in an sfs file? If so, I know I can blacklist that sfs file so my regular puppy install will work flawlessly. I like the looks of it but I don't really want to install it.

If you mean ".2fs", then yes. That's how I've been running it, along with the squashfiles (mygame, etc.) copied to the HD so that I can remove the CD.

Can you boot from any other puppy derivatives? If so, try booting into puppy and using burniso2cd. That is burner I used. It worked perfectly.

That helps plenty. You have Puppy 4.0 Dingo. Use the burniso2cd program on it under multimedia to burn a copy of Hurt Me Plenty and it should work perfectly. As I have stated before, that is what I use. I even used it to burn my PCLinuxOS and OS2 Warp discs.
