For years, Mac users have been told that not only are they cooler than their PC counterparts, they are safer too. Apple has always held that computer viruses and malware dogged only its competitors.

Detecting Android-x86 ......... some 20 lines like that and after some 30 minutes still going on like that. is it compiling or what is it doing? Reformatting my HDD?

Let me first state that I am a loyal puppian , just by reading Mr.B.K blog I learned so much .The man is a genius and modest too (too modest if you asked me ) it seems that android is the hot topic these days and many devices uses it and to be honest although I'm not a linux expert ( just a puppy st...

Its really a mind puzzling problem, detecting winmodems is a timeconsuming\complicated issue and more is to get it to dial but thanks to the great \nonstop work of rerwin most if not all winmodems works and he managed to solve so many problems. but with ltmodem its a very strange problem when its de...

Description Made in LuPu 5.1 - works in most versions (I think) Too bad it wouldn't work in older puppy versions Regarding to the software required to run Monkey successfully, you will need a Linux environment with Kernel version 2.6.29 (at least).... does anyone know of a webserver (that supports ...

EZ4arabs, could you test this idea? Simply boot a fresh puppy (pfix=ram), Go into BootManager and blacklist martian_dev, "probe-ERASE" in pupdial, reboot. I would expect no modem to be detected. Then probe for the modem in pupdial. If this works, it will lead to an elegant solution to you...

Do this -

Code: Select all

modprobe firmware_class

If you see no error messages, go ahead and unload/reload your rt73 driver -

Code: Select all

rmmod rt73
modprobe rt73

that fixed the problem.
Thank you so much for your time and help sir.

I installed rt73-20090412-k2.6.18.1.pet but I get this error: FATAL: Error inserting rt73 (/lib/modules/2.6.18.1/extra/rt73.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) sh-3.00# dmesg rt73: Unknown symbol release_firmware rt73: Unknown symbol request_firmware rt73: Unknown symbol ...

Could someone with some knowledge please put a "sticky" at the top of the first page listing all the derivatives and what's so special (or why they were created)? There are now a few of them and I (and i suspect quite a few others) have no idea what they are about. thanks to the hardworki...

It did work and tried it (public wifi ) h...
