eth1 nor wlan0 detected. | Thanks for your report. I do not see any indication that puppy recognized your wifi device. That suggests that the installation of the drivers did not trigger "depmod" to tell puppy of the new drivers. Pupscan associates the device with the proprietary driver, so a version of it must be present. Maybe it is the older version, which might not handle your device. Did you download the drivers before download number 8? If so, you would need to run depmod from a terminal/console. If your download was later than 7, then maybe the package logic to run depmod is faulty. Either way, try running depmod and rebooting.

sorry not clear, did install your driver package from page 100.broadcom-sta-5.100.82.112-6_5.60.48.36-3_k2.6.33.2.pet
don't have a clue what is number 8?
nor what is later than 7...
and installed this lupuplus-528.001_arch_update-3.pet
so I would say these pets do not work with lupulibre and Broadcom Corporation BCM4313

Yes oui, midori does not use ssl so it is not secure to use as an internet browser. The only reason it is in Lucid is to display the Cups printing configuration program if there is not another browser installed.

jim3630,
The place where you downloaded the driver package shows how many downloads of the package have been made. That is the count I am referring to. For the first 7 downloads, I had left out the script to run depmod. I then re-uploaded the package with the correction. So the eighth and subsequent downloaders should get the corrected package. I expect that you are not one of the first 7 people to download that package.
I have just now tested that the driver package does, indeed, run the depmod for the drivers. So, the problem lies elsewhere.
Did you start with pfix=ram to boot with no pupsave file, then install both packages, then reboot, saving a new pupsave file?
Would you verify that you have the 2 driver modules in /lib/modules/2.6.33.2/kernel/drivers/net/wireless as wl.alt and wl.ko? They both appear to support your device, product ID 4727.
I have not looked at lupulibre, yet, to see if there is something different about it that confuses things. Peebee has verified that the driver works for him. The only thing different here is lupulibre, which, I assume, is lupu004 plus libreoffice.
As it is late, for me, I will need to continue this in the morning.
Richard

yes to all questions.
rebooted just now and wan0 driver discoverd by sns. go figure!
first tried connection wizard which discovered a wifi driver but could not make the connection.
when back to sns and it did make wifi connection on wan0.

Stellarium |
|
PlayDayz,
I just installed Opera 11.62, Xorg-high 1.1 lucid, and Flashplayer 11 from the lucid repository. Does Opera use Qt ?
Something I wonder: when installing Opera 11.62, some packages where missing, but all dependencies where correct. Does that mean that Opera was build on different versions of the packages, but that current 528.005 versions of those packages (newer ?) do support this build of Opera ? Or does PPM download an install the missing packages ?
About Stellarium: the SFS behaves identical to the 1.10.6 pet. It brings up the stellatium logo, then crashes X to terminal. You can type reboot to restart the PC. Please find attached stellarium log file. It seems it destroys QProcess ... does that ring a bell ?

If anyone else sees a problem with the Broadcom wifi drivers, please speak up now. I assume playdayz is about to add the packages to the next lupuplus. So, better to spot a problem before that happens. In the absence of any further complaints, I say my broadcom-sta and arch_update-3 packages are ready to add to lupuplus.

Same thing--that's the latest.

Actually Opera did use to use Qt but I understand that it does no longer. I am stumped about why Stellarium is crashing. All I can suggest is to try it on a fresh install with nothing else except Xorg_High. Stellarium is a great program and if you really need it you might have to try another Puppy version. Except I don't know if it is available for other Puppies--because it is difficult. And I would not be optimistic about this version of Stellarium working on other puppies. Pemasu knows a lot about Qt so he might have it working in Dpup Xprimo.

not used Stellarium for some time. great program have enjoyed in the past.
installed Stellarium 1.10.6 pet from ppm to freshly frugal install of lupulibre.
downloaded all extra star catalogs, all worked ok, rebooted and again all worked ok.

@Playdayz I'm posting you here because I noticed your PM bucket is full.
The LibreOffice operations is top-notch in teh distro that has it built-in. I'm not sure what you've done, if its accidental or on-purpose, but, its performance aas a built-in subsystem with desktop integration "BEATS ALL OF THE PPM/Manual PET/SFS uses I've done in the past.
Congratulation on this version. Keep up the outstanding work.
P.S. You may want to do the same with 2-head and 3-head and 4-head ,...
And, check you PMs

Yes. There are two pets http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=618002#618002 that will do the same for any Libre. One associates the Libre icons with the Libre file types and also sets the run action to open Libre file types with Libre. The other pet sets the desktop icons of write, draw, and calc to the libre programs. A further advantage Lupu Libre has is that Libre is included in the main sfs and so runs from ram which I think makes it almost snappy--well, for Libre anyway. Oh wait, it is necessary to install one of those pets on the current Lupu Libre--the one that sets the icons and run actions (doc-type-LibO-set-1.pet)--the next Lupu Libre will have that built-in.

The default behaviour of a Lupu frugal install is "pfix=nocopy", so it shouldn't make a difference.
But if gcmartin is using a multi-session CD, his configuration may be loading into RAM. That would presume that he has enough memory to run it efficiently.

I installed Stellarium 0.10.4 Lucid from PPM and it works for me.
This thing is very graphic driver intense. So, I wonder if your graphics drivers are setup properly to run it. I am using specific Nvidia drivers for my Nvidia video card.
In Quickpet->drivers tab->click here to test your graphics card
What does it suggest for drivers and are you using them?

The driver suggested in Quickpet (driver tab) is Xorg-High.
It notes that it is installed, and appears to be working.
Suggested glxgears gives 1750 frames per 5 seconds.
This is a Pentium4 2GHz system with 1Gbytes RAM and 82845G graphics.
It must be related to the video driver in some way since others have it working. I will try a fresh install without Opera and Flash and post the results. And I will try a frugal install. Maybe there is a difference.
