Hi
I have made a full hd install of Puppy Lucid 528 to this old Compaq Deskpro EN from 2000 with 384Mb 133MHz sdram.
The setup worked ok for a long time but now I am only able to start via the originally burned cd. The cd choses automatically the vesa driver. But if I run xorgwizard and choose vesa from the hd it fails. No matter what I choose I can not get back to the original setup
How can I repair the setup using the live cd which I am using right now

Afaik, the xorgwizard reconstructs xorg.conf. Xorg.conf generates an auto backup file, named xorg.conf.bak if i remember well. The xorg.conf files are in /etc/X11/
You could try renaming the actual xorg.conf to something like xorg.conf.bad. And rename the xorg.conf.bak file to xorg.conf.
Or you could just open xorg.conf.bak as a text and copy all, paste all on xorg.conf.

I'm out of ideas ahah
What error does it throw?
I didn't use full install anymore, but if i remember well you can try to fix the install with the live cd right? I think it's in puppy universal installer, upgrade or something like that. When my full installs got screwed i used to do that on lucid puppy and always saved me.

Hi capisoco
Thank You very much for reply. My Puppy is back again I also remembered the situation from another machinery. I used univeral installer in the same way as initial experiments and I updated rebooted and this time chose the vesa in xorgwizard and this time it worked
