Starhawk. Yes I saw. I usually dont comment much if I dont have anything to say. I do minimize the need to post that way.
I have modesetting_drv.so support in Upup Precise. Now you have problem with bios and also with the attached monitor. You got bios update which helped partly. You dont get the wanted resolution still with your monitor.
I suppose you would need help with your bios or consultation with the modesetting_drv.so developers.
There isnt much I can do in your problem. I believe you would need some spesific hacks which are way over my capabilities.

Well, someone pointed me in the direction of xrandr -- my screen is displaying the wrong way at the right resolution now. Just have to get this frequency bunkem sorted out and I'll have a display that's just right.
There's a link to a pic in my thread...

I have simple graphical gui included in Upup Precise, called grandr...for included xrandr.
I havent had much need to use it, but some people have used grandr to set external monitor.
It shows also the available resolutions....what there are available.
It does not save the configurations though...you need include xrandr parameters somewhere from where they are executed each time X boots up.

hi pemasu,
upup precise is one of the few puppies that has suspend working properly for my acer netbook.
Is this because of programs you've added? if so which ones? or is it to do with your kernel compile?
i'm asking because i'ld like to add it to other pups
cheers

I have laptop tools pet, which I add to builds. I just switch apps to use the distro compiled versions.
Suspend in my builds uses acpitool, xbindkeys, scripts in /etc/acpi.
Basically acpitool is the one which suspends in console:
acpitool -s
Other stuff just modifies what the comp do before suspending and after waking up and create Fn + Zz function button support. I will check my pet and I can upload it to the smokey01.com.
I am atm out of my comp now. A little busy and not home now. I will do the upload probably tomorrow when I am back.

What am I missing for compiling a pet in upup 3.8.3 ? Subject description: COWLOG and deb2pet type solution for Precise? |
|
Hi pemasu and other gurus,
dog with a bone at the moment, so I hope I'm not diluting your thread overmuch with my message.
After long last I've taken 666philb's advice and have shifted from Lupu528 to Precise383 to get a range of research applications going, including "CowLog2.0" http://cowlog.org/download. So now I've frugal-insalled UpupPrecise383, downloaded and installed Python2.7.3 and for the latest Python-qt4, Python-sip debs + dependencies via PPM (all but sip-api-8.1*, but I don't know if I really need to source it out and include it/re-point it).
CowLog is working fine, using mplayer, although I can't get it to also see VLC2.1 properly - the latter downloaded via quickpet.
Anyways, I've downloaded both the devx and the QTlibs (for VLC) as SFS', but my attempts to right-click compile a pet for CowLog2 keeps dropping out. Am I missing a crucial step in this process somewhere? I'm doing this for menu entries, production/maintenance of a research-based puplet for Linux noobs etc etc.
I really want to get this right, as I've been badgering the forum for a few years now with CowLog requests (starting waaaay back with gposil!). If I can't get it sorted, I'll be pestering the PrecisePuppy forum til 2017 with updated requests on the latest pets/sfs' from debs of CowLog, Zotero, R, and Docear. Some pointers please!
Cheers,
Puppyt (the moppet)
* oo-er. After a shutdown and reboot i have these missing dependencies reported: imlib2 PyQt4 Python 2.7.3 sip-api-8.1 - even though CowLog etc is functioning fine with the first 3 libraries(?) certifiably installed. Dud calls somewhere? How might I weed out those mis-cued links? I see Upup Raring has the Python issue un-boaconstricted recently - should I jump ship

mplayer radio gui was created by stu91. I think I have the pet somewhere. But....pm stu91, he surely has the latest version.
edit:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=570559#570559
I am not sure is his forum name now stu90 or stu91. Maybe he got help from Flash to fix his password for stu90.

One great thing about Puppy...... low resource usage.Using 41 Mb of ram at idle (actually was at 38 immediately before the screenie)..... most other distros are well over 150 Mb usage. Even higher with KDE 4.

Thanks pemasu
I have sent stu91 a pm.
I'm using mplayer radio gui in Dpup Exprimo 3.2.14.2, and 5.X.15, but it seems to be missing in the latest builds of Upup and Wheezy.
Maybe it's a good idea to include it again in the new builds, because I think it's the best way to add new stations and listen to internet radio in puppy

Thanks Bruno. I am sure stu90-91 appreciate your praise.
I will include the lastest of his work to my next builds, if you get copy of it. I havent checked yet my external usb hdd where I have my previous woof builds, I suppose I can find the pet from there if not from stu90-91.
