Lucid Puppy 5.2.8 - Updated ISO Version 005 - APR 05 2012
Update of USB mode switcher for wireless modems, etc.
Playdayz, et al,
It has been 7 months since the last update of the mode switcher and its data base. This might be useful for those with modems that were not previously handled by the switcher. Please try this, to verify it has not regressed. Thank you.
The change log shows the newly added modems and other devices:

I cannot say "yes" or "no", but some could be. I say that because the mode switcher is for any hybrid device that initially appears as a cdrom containing a Win...s driver. If you have a USB wireless interface, you can check whether it is supported, by looking in /usr/share/usb_modeswitch/ for a file with a name beginning with your device's storage-mode hardware ID.Sylvander wrote:Are any of these devices USB wireless interfaces?
I believe that not all such devices require the switcher because, somehow, the usb-storage driver knows to make the switch.

Pmount unmounts and renames flashcards saving pages with SM2
Have run into a disturbing problem while saving web pages to flash card on the USB2.0 port under lupupluslibre with Seamonkey 2.11.
It most recently occurred while having several windows open in Seamonkey and saving by turns to two different folders on an SD card.
The save would fail with a message that the directory didn’t exist. And each time I would have to open pmount (because no new drive icon appears on the desktop), find the new name of the SD card, mount it, and do the save again. It's noteworthy that even when the drive is mounted under its new name, no drive icon appears on the desktop. This process continued relentlessly once started, renaming the card progressively from sdd1 to sdk1.
This problem is fairly recent, and I wonder if it’s due to the July update of SM to v. 2.11? The more serious issue is whether this is a symptom of unreliability in writes to flash media via Seamonkey 2.11? This is how I usually document my online purchases.
I've also noted a new problem with the SM2.11 password manager today. I usually save these passwords prior to doing an update (having lost some in the past) by displaying them from the tools/password manager menu, and then saving a screenshot to a flashcard.
I haven't done this in a while, so I don't know when the change might have happened, but SM 2.11 no longer allows me to view more than one URL's password at a time, making the screenshot technique rather impractical.
I looked at the Mozilla site for password saver add-ons, but the two I found are incompatible with v. 2.11.
I use Seamonkey almost exclusively for web browsing because of familiarity and relative simplicity of configuration. But now I'm wondering whether it's time to dump Seamonkey forever?

Using the USB connector to charge? BK found it was a bad idea - cf his Blog. USB can only supply half-an-amp; it's not enough. Either use a powered USB hub, which still has shortcomings eg you've no idea where you are unless you stick a meter in circuit, even then some of the cables might have too big an iR drop, etc., etc. To be confident, use your chargers that came with the battery equipment, whether that be a mobile, laptop or peripheral. Never use battery kit unless it's unavoidable - you have 100A @240V available from the domestic ring, perhaps more - or less if the wife switches on the oven, drier and your Samsung larder fridge cuts in.
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

had to search for bad caps http://www.badcaps.net/pages.php?vid=5Sage wrote:Those things have a higher failure rate than bad caps! Perhaps due to bad caps?Using the original netbook charger
more inclined to suspect the power supply at present. had problems that I suspected were powersupply previously with previous equipment when in this hotel/region. will hold off taking remedial action till I move on. only using the external harddrive when the battery is full is not too bothersome at present.
previuos eeepc went through 3 chargers before it died. this current charger/equipment is less than a week old.
yes i can believe that. The new one is very fine. When i first plugged it in i thought there are going to be problems with clogging or bending, and fixing. didnt think about restricted current flow but seems highly likely.Sage wrote:Didn't you hear?

That's where I've heard of Softmaker before--I have used Textmaker (included in this suite). It's a very good wordprocessor, does everything you ask it to with no extra fuss. There is a .pet somewhere for it, but I guess it's a little outdated now, huh?don570 wrote:Beta version of Softmaker office program can be

lupupluslibre iso corrupted?
After downloading the lupupluslibre iso on the first page of this thread, I forgot to check the md5sum (I've very rarely had a bad download).
I used burniso2cd and did opt to verify the burn, and it was good.
But when I checked the md5sum, it was wrong. I then tried booting with the disk, and got a "kernel corrupted" error message after the initial puppy logo.
Is there another site where I can download a fresh copy? I can't find my original iso download.
Have investigated the lupupluslibre ISO corruption problem further today:
I checked the file size of my recent corrupted lupupluslibre download and found it only 182MB in size, where it should have been 296MB. I downloaded it again, using Seamonkey 2.11
... some possibly erroneous statements removed.
Update. Having finally downloaded a lupupluslibre ISO of the correct size (296MB), I checked the md5sum, and it failed also:
the sum given on the download page (first post in this thread):
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... start=1665
shows the following md5sum:
Perhaps someone who has saved a working copy of the ISO could run md5sum on it to test this?

Can it be that the ISO is good, but the wrong md5sum is posted on the website?sh-4.1# md5sum *.iso
