Hi Fred,

the only thing that comes to my mind is my AMD Radeon R5 Graphics Card.

I will try to find out by "delete and error method", but that may take a while.
Thanks again. Great stuff.

Hi Fred, thanks for this one. After the great stretch-dog I was hoping for buster-dog. And here it is. I have only one suggestion. In the beginning boot always interrupted with the message can't connect to x-server but didn't know how to allocate it. It took me a while until I found that I had to co...

OK it's done, but it took me nearly 1 hour to find out, that in fact two things were blocking the setting for backlight at the same time. One was the missing firmware. The other was that rc.local doesn't work during boot ( at least not by default). That took me a long time to find. So step by step f...

@wiak @dancytron
thanks to both of you. I will try all and give feedback.

Hi folks, after creating und using debiandog stretch64 everything works perfectly. The only difficulty I have is with the backlight control. I want to reduce the brightness for radeon graphiccard AMD Radeon HD 8570M, but it doesn't work. Here's what I have done so far: In /sys/class/backlight I foun...

Thank You Fred
in a few minutes a fully working distro was created, using debiandog jessie 64 with additonal debootstrap packge installed as the starting base.
That script is a real masterpiece.

Hi Toni thanks for quick reply. I have done following : install pppoe_3.8-3_i386.deb,ppp_2.4.5-5.1+b1_i386.deb and pppoeconf_1.20_all.deb all with dpkg -i. I have run modprobe -v pppoe => all modules loaded correctly. pppoe-setup and entered the correct parameters pppoe-setup says it was succesful p...

Is there a way to connect to the internet with pppoe using the new porteus- wheezy. I installed pppoe.deb with dpkg -i and did the usual pppoe-setup ( pppoe.conf I took from my lucid 528). But after pppoe-start I get a timeout after a while. Unfortunately I have no other way to connect to the intern...

While it worked for me 2 days ago, now login is no more possible. THIS IS MICROSOFT!!

Hi Oscar have convert your Skype 2.02.35new.pet to a Porteus module (.xzm) Audio and Video work flawless. Thanks a lot. I also have made a module for 4.3.0.37. from source. It starts without errors. but no audio and video ( maybe because I don't know howto handle pulseaudio). So as long as possible ...

:D @fredx181 Hi Fred, great stuff that you have constructed. I have tested it,and found it even faster than Porteus (my favorite in the moment). I think it can be the base for a very very good distro. IMHO I think it should also not be bloated by a lot of preinstalled applications. Keep it small and...

Hi Jejy69,
that would also be my question. Any idea about precise 5.4 with lxde?

Currently I use lupu 528.05 with some makeshift older lxde version, but I found your mate puppy quite elegant. So I would be glad to upgrade.

Regards

Payoon

In /root/.xinitrc the last line you have to change to exec startlxde In /etc/windowmanager you have to replace the existing windowmanager (f.e. jwm) with openbox. BTW why don't You try jejy69's lxde precise pup? Very beautiful and fast. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=79810 Payoon[/...

Sorry, first posted in wrong place. Hi folks, in Saluki there is a bug in gnumeric. When you cut certain cells and want to paste it in another worksheet the clipboard is empty, but the selected cells in the source worksheet are also gone. They can't be restored with undo. I have seen this bug in oth...

I have the same problem. The slackware packages are read well and when starting with subito it stops at busybox. The roar-ng thing is in it's early stages and I hope later we'll get some more "howto" documentation. All in all very very interesting. My dream: a selftaylored distro for my ma...

Hi joerice 50 by my expierence with many puppy derivatives it happens often, that, by default, in the alsa-mixer the volume controler of the front speaker is not fully open. So before You use any application, open alsa-mixer in the /menu/multimedia section and turn the main volume plus the front spe...
