Hi John,

FYI I've got 2009legacy running on my 10yr old amd k6-3 400 with 256 ram. I did not make a cd but extracted the 2009 files and replaced the 2008 files and deleted old save file in my frugal installation and used my original grub to bootup. On first boot could not get a destop with xorg and xversa was very grainy. However after creating a new save file and rebooting xversa is now working. I will try xorg some more later as it has always worked with other puppies.

Everything looks great now and seems to run faster than 2008 did on this machine.

Thank you for a great os for old hardware.
Dale

What is the version of Seamonkey? Does TEENpup 2009 Legacy have enhanced modem detection and support?

EDIT: Seamonkey 1.1.14, no PupDial

Hi John,
Looks like you've got a winner - I will try it on my Celeron 400MHZ with 256MB RAM. The only distro that works with this Linksys WMP54G adapter is Dreamlinux, which I enjoy, but I am convinced Puppy will maximize the capability of this old box. I will download and burn the ISO and give it a try.
Thanks for all your work - I'll let you know how it goes. The screen shots look terrific!

Hi kayan,

Yes, You should be able to do a frugal install. That is the way I like to use puppy.

Hi

Thank's for a your great work!!

Makes it fun to use my old Hp OmniBook again, really saved it from ending up in the trash bin

I have only run in to one problem so far and it's how to get my wireless WPA2 connection to work. It seems like the network wizzard doesn't support wireless WPA2 connections or maybe WPA2 is not supported in TEENpup at all. My Wcard is a DWL-G650+ and works just fine with the acx* driver in Puppy Linux 4.2.1.

I guess I'm missing something here so it would be great with some help to point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance

@kayan

can you post your grub entry for TEENpup

Here are the grub enteries for the puppies currently on this machine:

Code: Select all

title TeenPup 2.14
    rootnoverify (hd0,3)
    kernel (hd0,3)/vmlinuz root=/dev/ram0 PMEDIA=idehd PDEV1=hda4 acpi=force 
    initrd (hd0,3)/initrd.gz


title MacPup 4.12F
   rootnoverify (hd0,0)
   kernel (hd0,0)/macpup/vmlinuz pmedia=idehd acpi=force psubdir=macpup
   initrd (hd0,0)/macpup/initrd.gz

You may not need acpi=force unless you have an old computer. I have TeenPup in it's own partition so no psubdir.

I hope this is what you need.

psubdir will not work with teenpup [p214]

Edit: "Cannot find Puppy on 'ideCD' boot media"
I also have a Boot error, I believe it maybe SATA Raid Controller (it is raid off /normal mode). It does a search of the drives then either reports can not find idecd, or idehd when booting via gldr.

Is there a parameter to pass? or is it that I have too new a hardware for the kernel ? 214R does work as well as the 214X (ttuuxx) is working.

Thanks, it could just be the onset of a senior moment.

Thanks John This is GREAT!.

I got the same problem when I tried on my acer aspire One. It does seem to boot under some modifications. The iso I used with unetbootin seemed to leave the entry in syslinux.cfg as pmedia=idecd. I simply changed it to pmedia=usbcard (since I used unetbootin to put it on USB stick). That seemed to work wonderfully. The issue left now is getting a better screen interface in xorg as all I could get one my aspire one is 800x600.

Thanks again and I hope this helps those with the above error

hello, I had a little problem, I get an error when loading the cd.

I get the following:

ERROR cannot find Puppy on "idecd" boot media

PUPMode=1 PDEV=

Exited to initial-ramdisk (dev/ram0) commandline...

(the linux-guru can now debug, 'e3' editor is avaible).

/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off.

#: _

I think this distro is incompatible with the DVD SATA support

I have a ASROCK - Wolfdale1333-D667 v2.0
with a DVD-RW SATA Super multi

This distro works well with IDE DVD drives, but SATA brings problems.

Thanks, nice distro..

Hi John I'm testing out Teenpup. So far it works fine but I've run into a little snag which I hope you can help me with to do with the latest Opera beta. Here's what I did:

I downloaded the opera-10.00.4402beta.pet and installed. Found opera.sh in opt/opera10beta/ and dragged it to the desktop. Rightclicked to File 'opera' -> Set Icon... went to /opt/opera10beta/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/opera.png and tried to drag the icon into the Set Icon... box but nothing happens... thanks for any suggestion.

john biles · #30 Post by **john biles** » Mon 15 Jun 2009, 15:03

Hello Artie,
You need to change the icon in opt/opera10beta/opera.sh, not the desktop and then drag it to the desktop.

To those having trouble with SATA drives all that I can say is that the same problems that effect Puppy 2.14 will effect TEENpup. I don't believe I modified anything that would cause this problem?

As for the 800 x 600 screen resolution there was a trick you could do
I know you had to type "915resolution -l" in Terminal and it gave you possible screen resolutions. You then needed to pick a screen resolution number that you wouldn't use and type in "915resolution 38 1024 600 16" in terminal. Now rerun the xorgwizard and you should be able to select 1024 x 600 from the choices given. Note: 38 in this example is the screen resolution number chosen that could be over written. Also you'll need to do this every time you boot TEENpup, sorry!

Try searching or posting on the forum for a better fix.

Thanks for the suggestion but I have no idea how to change the opera.sh icon.

Hi John don't bother looking for SataDvd fix for 2.14 it just doesn't work, It would of been a kernel module, The only early 2 series that SataDvd worked on was 2.14R, and now the continued updated 2.14.1X that I've been working on. even have glibc 2.5 and the latest glib,gtk etc on it, So Firefox 3.5 and flash ten runs perfect on it. When I'm finished it could make a nice teenpup future base.

Ps your latest version looks really nice, Great Job on it John

Hello ttuuxxx,
Thank you for the info on SATA Drives, this will answer alot of questions for those having trouble. I'm looking forward to your updated Puppy 2.14R.
Having glibc 2.5 and your other improvements will open up a lot of extra opportunities for the next release of TEENpup. Thank you!

@wdm
thanks for the grub entry.

@vg1

psubdir will not work with teenpup [p214]

do you mean to say that Teen pup will not work in sub dir but should have a separate partition to work?
