Thanks micko :) i know this is out for major testin & i for one am very happy. sns worked like a charm on my wireless which has been a real pain with most puplets released recently.

Some would get online but would take like 10 minutes to get an IP. This was almost instantly online so thanks :) so glad to figure out it wasnt my wireless setup & more to do with the kernel which is what i really hoped it was. my wireless info if needed is below.

Booted from live cd using default options-

Went straight to desktop using 1366x768

No network interface detected.

I have two controllers on this HP Pentium 4, 2.8 ghz pc
1. Ethernet Controller-ADMtek NC100 Network Everywhere Fast Ethernet 10/100 (rev 11)

2. Ethernet Controller - Intel Corporation 82562EZ 10/100 Ethernet Controller (rev02)

First time in two years of using puppies that "No interface detected":.
Sometimes I have to select one or the other and then it works, but no cigar this time

Just determined that - I found the Intel driver stated above but it is .tz file and needs to be compiled. Can you do that and post the driver?

Broadcom wifi driver not loaded so wlan unaccessible. Loaded module via network wizard and it then worked and survived boot.

Interesting thing is...3.1.8 in wuxiandianzi Lucid 5.2.8 based puplet and b43 autoloads. So...it really can be more of the recent woof problem than exactly kernel spesific. Although b43 autoloads with 2.6.39.4 and recent woof. Could there be some script which still needs patching for 3.X kernels. And why it seems to affect b43 only.

You will need patched acpitool source. Check Jemimah`s source folder in smokey01 repo.

For me SNS didnt launch. Xerrs.log reported this:
/usr/sbin/net-setup.sh: line 1683: scanpci: command not found

I grabbed the scanpci from the Out house and then the SNS started. Ath9k and atl1e found. Wireless with WPA works ok.

DOTconfig seems to miss whole tulip. No matches when I used search.
Annihilation of whole tulip family.

You seem to use aufs, like me with 3.1 kernel. Somebody could check if usb installation, booting and then pet installation using PPM and saving the pets is succesful. I mean are they still saved and usable after reboot. That has been the problem with aufs and 3.X kernels. Or maybe 01micko has already cured it.

New report for me:
# gnome-mplayer
GLib-GIO-Message: Using the 'memory' GSettings backend. Your settings will not be saved or shared with other applications.

I get these to the xerrs.log also. Just thought to report even if this release is mainly for net connections reporting. Shame me....

yeah, I already compiled gmome-mplayer 1.0.5 but didn't put it in, the problem is that "dconf" package isn't there, and I refuse to compile against the gconf bloat!

Actually, usb2 is not broken, In Jim's report there is "ERROR: modinfo: could not find module ehci_hcd"... that's because it's compiled into the vmlinuz (the kernel).

Ok, I've caught all the ethernet modules *I think* (realtek, tulip, broadcom and others), also iwlagn, wireless,

I'll take a look in STA see if there is new stuff.

@nooby.. the command is jwm -restart (with a space)
Anyway, I put a feature request in with Joe Wing to do an automatic restart of jwm and he has done it in jwm-svn-576 so I'm hoping this finally fixes that problem you have.

5.3.1.1

#32 Post by sszindian »

Hi Mic!

Looks like the makings of a good program 'Keep After It!'

One problem that I've never encountered in a puppy to date... while running 5.3.1.1 (maybe this is fixed in 5.3.1.2? haven't tried that one yet.)

eth0 'not' recognized Ethernet cable is plugged into computer and works with Slack0-5.3.1 and all other puppy's.

wlan0 'is' recognized however I don't have wifi router active but Linksys AE1000 Wireless-N Adopter is plugged into computer.

yep, known issue should be fixed in current version 5.3.1.2 (get the delta :wink: )

Hi Mick

Pristine manual frugal install using the 5.3.1.1 to 5.3.1.2 delta...

Can confirm that the "B43 not detected" problem is still there....but putting modprobe b43 into rc.local solves.

Let me know if I can test anything for you.

In case it helps, I've attached the /var/log/messages file from wuxiandianzi 's lupu528-k318 (remove .gz to fool forum)

Cheers
Peter

Slacko 5.3.2-alpha2 ..testing

#35 Post by Billtoo »

I did a manual frugal install to my acer revo nettop pc.
It went straight to the desktop at the correct resolution, using the
nouveau driver I think.
The builtin wireless adapter isn't supported,
Ralink corp. RT3090 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe.
I plugged in a linksys rt73 usb wireless adapter and it is working
well.
I installed the devx and kernel source sfs and the Nvidia driver for
the ION chip in this pc, it took an extra reboot and 2nd try to
compile the nvidia driver because the nouveau driver conflicts with
the proprietary nvidia driver, it did successfully compile after doing
that.
