Finaly, I found that the "bootsplash stop" fall into the endless loop. It has paused in the loop of "while" beacuse the ASLEEP_FILE is not existed. I don't konwn which process has operated the file called "pebble_nowasleep". I had not discovered at least in pebble_deamo...

maybe something wrong with "bootsplash stop"

This time, I installed the pup412 with full hd. then installed the pebble1.0 for 4.12. But it also stoped at the image of "Booting Puppy Linux"! After some tests, I found that problem occured with "bootsplash stop" by adding test-code to rc.sysinit. The code "bootsplash stop...

Hi Pizzasgood, I too tried this with Puppy 4.1. I can confirm that this only happens with pebble. Unfortunately, your modified version did not work as well... it hung at the boot screen. Good luck, and thanks for this great program! Edit: Also, is it possible that pebble modified a script that prev...

Well, I'm not sure what's wrong, but I do know there are a couple spots where there is a potential for it to get stuck in an infinite loop if something breaks. They were spots where the script waits for the daemon to finish doing something before continuing. I adjusted the code so that now they won...

I can not get the X sometimes. Does the bootsplash go away and leave you at the commandline, so that you have to run xwin ? Does it do that, but without clearing the image? Or does it hang, requiring a reboot? What kind of install? Full, frugal, USB? -------- FYI, I've now uploaded packages for 4.1...

The resolution question I had already solved, the question left in screen refurbishing rate. It is not unnecessary to use 915resolution. modify xorg.conf: change HorizSync 31.0-80.0 VertRefresh 50.0-72.0 to HorizSynv 31.0-50.0 VertRefresh 40.0-72.0 then restart x,the resolution is changed to your ho...

the modes can set very specific things for the monitor, like frequencies. For LCD monitors, this usually is not needed, only for few models, that cannot sync with the graficscard by default. To set the permanent resolution, you must edit /etc/rc.d/rc.local as written in the readme. Mark Do not have...

yes, I think so. Readme from Muppylinux: 915resolution sets a video bios mode for intel graficscards. It must be run before X starts. For example add a line like this to /etc/rc.d/rc.local 915resolution 45 1024 600 (mode width height) use: 915resolution -l to see available modes http://www.geocitie...

the intel chips seem to ignore the resolution in xorg.conf, as the resolution is set in the graficscard. So you must use instead "915resolution". That utility seems to set the resolotion in the graficscard itself. Mark According to the http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=3246...

Change the resolution null and void, no matter what I set the value, such as 1024x768 or 800x600, It always displayed as a screen resolution of the biggest 1280x1024.

This problem occurs with the Intel 810 as well and I took the driver from Puppy 3.01. If the Intel 945 can work with the 810 driver then the following link to my procedure could be useful: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=29144 Thanks for your replay!
