Wary and Racy Puppy 5.5 Release Candidates
Can Transmission for Puppy be upgraded?
@AARF has attempted to help the community with a Torrent. This helps all of us as together download times would decrease significant over what iBiblio provides.
@AARF's torrent is racy5491 torrent
TRANMISSSION is the vehicle in most PUP distro, but the version we are using is 2.22 versus the current version which has fixed several seeding problems is at 2.77.

Sorry but also have to report a problem with X with Racy 5.4.91 on my nvidia geforce FX 5200 card.
First boot loads vesa at 1280x1024 but "exit to prompt" from the menu and screen goes blank. Typing "xwin" (blindly with nothing on the display) does bring it back.
Running xorg wizard from the menu also gives a blank screen but I can (again all blindly) press enter (for probe), the down arrow (to select 1024x768x24 instead of the default 1024x768x16), and then press enter again and I get the desktop back with nouveau loaded at 1024x768x24 and glxgears gives around 250 fps.
Oh, and the nouveau is loaded with none of the graphics missing by the way, so not sure what is going on there.

Wary 5.3 has 'ffmpeg-20111002-w5c.pet'
If I recall rightly, the original ffmpeg lacked network support, and someone, it might have been shinobar, recompiled it, hence the different PET in 5.5RC.

Barry, you recompiled ffmpeg in March to add network support and gave it the "dash one" name (ffmpeg-20111002-1-w5c.pet). This you included in RC1 of Wary 5.3. But then someone reported that the new version didn't support x11grab, and you asked that person to try the old version (ffmpeg-20111002-w5c.pet). You never got a reply, so to be safe, you reverted to the old version for RC2, RC3, and the final Wary 5.3.
As it turned out, the old version didn't support x11grab either. Both versions should have, since you had compiled with --enable-x11grab, but because of a bug in ffmpeg's configure script (since reportedly fixed), the configure script reported no error despite not finding a needed library.
Anyway, in July shinobar recompiled ffmpeg again giving us ffmpeg-0.8.12-1, which has both x11grab and network support, and you uploaded it to the Wary repo.

Same problem with Racy as I reported in the Precise k-3.8.0 thread.....will not mount an usb flash drive.
Flash drive is detected by the kernel as noted in the logs but no icon appears and Pmount doesn't even notice it's plugged in.
Errors continue on as long as flash drive is plugged in.
No problems with the drive or usb ports in other Puppy installs.

Hello, Mr. Kauler.
No problems here! Writing this in Opera 12.13 from wary 5.4.90 with enhanced Xorg. My screen has never been this nice. French localization takes a little convincing (5-6 Xorg re-initialisations plus a couple of reboots !) but it does work fine when it finally start.
So, many thanks for this. And "bonne continuation"!

latest woof download in racy wrong
@BarryK
Sorry, in the latest racy 5.4.91 and with no additional packages yet added, not even a jwm update, and on a box with an intel i915 video. I am getting some display problems.
This is with a fresh woof build of 25 Feb.
I have attached a screeny capture example for comments and sugestions. All Woof pages are showing the same problem and won't resize smaller.
However I'm not sure if it's racy or woof having the problems.
All comments would be appreciated.

Manual frugal install of the latest Quirky.Just like Racy I had to copy the xorg.conf from another install to get the correct resolution and since it's the same kernel can't mount a flash drive.
Most interesting is that Quirky only seems to boot about 1 time out of three attempts..... the bootloader finds the kernel.qky and all activity ceases.Hard poweroff and eventually it'll go ahead and boot.

Racy-5.4.91
Racy-5.4.91
This is one 'Blazing-Fast' Puppy, I keep thinking they can't get any faster but 'this one did!'
Did an UPDATE to Racy-5.2.90 to see how well it would go.
Everything went well except for the usual few Icon drops from personal desktop programs and of course the background pic.
-----------------------------------------------------
WiFi stayed without issue:
Linksys AE1000 (usb plugin - using rt2800usb)
-----------------------------------------------------
Already had a lot of programs installed in 5.2.90 and they all worked as before!
-----------------------------------------------------
The 3.8.0 Kernel appears to be working just fine on this old box.
-----------------------------------------------------
Internet Graphics & Picture display just don't get any better, crystal clear and coloring as it should be, even in Mplayer
-----------------------------------------------------
USB plugins working fine, even my VADO camcorder/camera.

My memory can be rather hazy. It's not that I'm getting old, I have always had hazy recall. As a boy, my dad used to tell that I would forget my head if it wasn't screwed on.
I am wondering if any issues are due to the 3.8 kernel. Especially video.
I have decided that Racy 5.5RC2 will have the 3.0.66 kernel. This is a continuation of the 3.0.x used in Racy 5.3. ...um, it might have been 3.0.27.

Racy (and Quirky) OK, Wary not so good
I just gave Racy, Quirky, and Wary a quick frugal install on a Dell D430 laptop with a B43 wireless chipset.
Racy and Quirky both seem to work equally well with absolutely no issues so far. Solid as usual.
Wary, on the other hand, has a really annoying issue with SeaMonkey. Scrolling is not smooth and fluid like in Racy and Quirky; it seems to "stutter". Also, there's a small but perceptible lag when switching tabs when compared with Racy.
My main distro on this laptop is Puppy Precise 5.4.3, which also has no issues. I just tried Wary 5.3 and it also seems to stutter in SeaMonkey, so this may not be a new problem. I'm 99% sure Wary 5.2.2 was OK, but I don't have the ISO handy to give it a try right now.
Did something change in Wary SeaMonkey between 5.2.2 and 5.3, or could this be a system-related problem?
Racy and Quirky both seem to work equally well with absolutely no issues so far. Solid as usual.
Wary, on the other hand, has a really annoying issue with SeaMonkey. Scrolling is not smooth and fluid like in Racy and Quirky; it seems to "stutter". Also, there's a small but perceptible lag when switching tabs when compared with Racy.
My main distro on this laptop is Puppy Precise 5.4.3, which also has no issues. I just tried Wary 5.3 and it also seems to stutter in SeaMonkey, so this may not be a new problem. I'm 99% sure Wary 5.2.2 was OK, but I don't have the ISO handy to give it a try right now.

Kernel modules do not get stripped, not that I know of anyway.OscarTalks wrote:The tg3 ethernet driver module does not work with my Broadcom NetLink 57788 (and some others, so I am told).
I downloaded the latest driver tarball from http://www.broadcom.com/support/etherne ... nk_k57.php and compiled it.
It works for me and I will attach it but I expect you will wish to compile your own.
I notice those *.ko drivers in that directory are not stripped so I didn't strip this one. Do we know if they are best left not stripped?
Thanks for that update, I have replaced the tg3 module with yours in the kernel pet package.

That means the syntax for Xdialog is wrong.esmourguit wrote:Bonjour à toutes et tous,
It seems that I have a problem with remasterpup2.
Just after validated in this window, the attached message is displayed:
Cordialement
I cannot reproduce this problem. I changed to de_DE.UTF-8, but it still worked.
After the first window, there is a "Please wait" window, then another window with a menu-list of partitions to choose a working partition.
You are crashing before that.
Do you get the "Please wait" window before the crash?
Have you run 'remasterpup2' from a terminal to see if there are any more error messages?
After it has crashed, you will find a file '/tmp/savedlg' -- please gzip that and post it here. That should tell us why the Xdialog is crashing.

remasterpup2
/tmp/savedialog is ok
my crash is coming later and not language dependent
I have no CD/DVD and use 'virtual cd'
added some echos into function choice_cdd and started remasterpup2 in English from console:
echo ending choice_cdd
has not been executed because of crash
hope this helps
Also see my comment from feb 26 at

You can also use a .iso file if it is already mounted as a virtual CD (you would need to have previously clicked on a .iso file to mount it).
