that gave you a break from my constant harassing yerc1 ;) Hahaha... not true! I worried I might come across as the one engaging in harassment which is not. It's silly but I keep finding these "vital" kernel modules that no one seems to mention is important for Chromebook support. What if ...

new updated 3.14.20 kernels uploaded this hopefully fixes the keyboard/usb port problems that mavrothal and gyro have been getting to the bottom of, thanks guys it's working for me. hopefully, finally, maybe..... chromebook touchpad support ...yerc1 to test :) wacom driver module various touchscree...

Not a problem, but what happened? Dmesg, Xorg.0.log, and output of cat /proc/bus/input/devices? Just from memory the first kernel 3.18.1 build compared with build2 results: # modprobe chromeos_laptop build1 did not produce any message. build2 result is "FATAL: Module chromeos_laptop not found....

I've compiled with i2c-designware-pci as well the other two modules Phil mentioned for good measure... another "could this be the one?" moment :D Pretty exciting :shock: http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/battleshooter/Carolina/Experimental/Build_2-3.18.1/ Not a woohoo! moment yet, so...

try uncommenting Section "Module" # Load "synaptics" #loadsynaptics to Section "Module" Load "synaptics" #loadsynaptics and adding this after the "InputDevice" keyboard &mouse0 sections Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Synaptics ...

can you post your /etc/x11/xorg.conf

Please see attachment.
Thanks.

@yerc1 Got another solution for you to test too when you have time, new kernel... I realized I didn't tick the second "CONFIG_CHROMEOS_PSTORE" option when compiling the kernel :oops: I thought only the first option was needed. Also for good measure I compiled them as built-in instead of m...

@battleshooter my bad. indeed the pet is not shown on package manager. i thought i saw a confirmation that the pet was installed and proceeded with testing on the belief that it's there :oops: again confirmed that the Xorg pet checks out ok against its md5sum then installed the pet. restarted pc. he...

1. What's the result of: modprobe chromeos_laptop 2. What's the result of: synclient -l 3. Output of: cat /proc/bus/input/devices 4. Are there any errors in dmesg related to synaptics, touchpad or inputs? 5. I think the outputs of lsusb, lspci, lsmod, and "xinput list" would be quite educ...

A new version of PuppEX Tahr is ready. Most important changes: I've changed kernel from 3.17.6 to 3.18 and installed NVIDIA Graphics driver 340.65 . The Nvidia driver will be used if your computer/card is "modern" enough. I've also added Tahrpup's Service Pack 6.0.1 in PuppEX version 1412...

Bendigo Bank Telco offers 15GB for $59 mobile broadband. If Optus covers your area you might find that a good deal instead of the Telstra 8GB for $50. This is a nice offer to move to when my contract expires in April. As a side note, yerc1, can you test the new XORG I put up on this post? It's my l...

chromebook touchpads are now working i believe with the 3.17.7 kernel hey 666philb, Thanks for tahr 6 and congratulations for it getting a 10/10 score in Linux Format review! I confirm that toshiba chromebook cb30 touchpad now works with the 3.17.7 kernel. But as I posted (7 or so posts before), th...

Thanks yerc1. Carolina ISO is 3/400 MB, which gets expanded on loading. It might be a tight fit in a 1GB Ram machine? Running it from HDD is likely to be un-Puppy slow. I will have a look at x_slacko. No worries Snail. Carolina (the main edition) is indeed bulkier than most puppies, and that's due ...

I reported before that touchpad did not work with kernel 3.17.4 from the downloads page. With the newer kernel 3.17.7, touchpad navigation is now possible (it's actually very responsive), but right-click option seems unavailable. I tried the touchpad wizard but it gave me: "Couldn't find synapt...

I generally use 3HD or Fatdog. However I want to find a Puppy that loads and goes quick on this old netbook but is up to date enough to run Skype. MS$ has cut off users of older versions of Skype. Spec are: HPMini 110-3500; Intel Atom N550 @ 1.5GHz; 1GB ram. The supplied Windows 7 Starter is especi...

@gcmartin, Indeed in true Aussie style we have a neighbourhood group that gets their internet as you described. @Geoffrey, Telstra was giving me the alibi that there was no port available each time I rang for an update. Lucky I went through another provider on The Telstra network. From them I learne...

Only thing ruining my holiday spirit is I'm about to run out of internet in 3 days :lol: @#$% Telstra, why can't they bring broadband to my area?! :roll: I gave up waiting for Tel$tra ADSL this year after 4 years of waiting. Long story short, I disconnected my Tel$tra land line and got a refund for...

Hah having a VIP feeling atm LOL

But seriously though thanks battleshooter... and don't let our issues ruin the holiday spirit.

I suspect it's Xorg. So far it's only working on Fatdog for you right? How did exton's build work out? vlina needs "puppy acpi=off pfix=nox" then to pick vesa within xorgwizard else the display is garbled. I think vlina detects the intel video correctly but does not have the new driver re...

Hey battleshooter The default icon set and style are gorgeous. One more reason to have Carolina as my Toshiba Chromebook OS :-) I regret to advise that the touchpad and wireless of the device continue to refuse to work on Carolina Vanguard ed. flSynclient still gives the "Couldn't find synaptic...
