I guess I helped myself on this one. I added "modprobe apm" to my rc.local file, and now APM is active on boot. So, for anyone out there who doesn't know how to add modules on startup, that's how it's done. I now have a completely functional Puppy laptop that goes to sleep when I close the...

OK, so I tried a few things. I tried to add some boot parameters to grub, but none worked. I tried acpi=force, acpi=off, and acpi=off apm=on. But... I tried this before and it didn't work, but I went to the console and tried "modprobe apm" again just for the hell of it. To my surprise, it ...

One of the things I tried was to modprobe battery, but it fails to load the module, stating that the device is not installed (or something like that). There is a battery, and although it's not in the prime of its life, it still works for a little while. I've been reading other posts and I read that ...

I searched the forum and Google for some answers to this, but I need a bit of information. First off, I have an old ThinkPad iSeries that I installed Puppy 2.12 on (full HD install). It works great, except I have no power management. I installed MU's Enlightenment dotPups and they work great, except...

I posted this elsewhere, but I'll put it here too as it seems to be more than just me with the problem. I'm running 2.12 full HD install on an old ThinkPad. Both it and the live CD recognize the wireless adapter as orinoco_cs and load the adapter properly. But when I booted from the 2.13 CD to insta...

I have an old ThinkPad that's running Puppy and I'm having a similar problem with 2.13. I have 2.12 on it now (full HD install, but the live CD is the same) that recognizes the onboard wireless as orinoco_cs and loads the module properly. When I boot into 2.13, it fails loading the orinoco_cs module...

Just wanted to show you Puppy 2.10 running on Q on an Intel MacBook. Runs much better than on my PowerBook!

More info: After reading other posts, I went to the command line and typed modprobe -r sb, then modprobe -v sb. At first, I got this common error: Note: /etc/modules.conf is more recent than /lib/modules/2.4.29/modules.dep So I touched both files, and reran the modprobe. This is what I got: # modpro...

Even at 800 x 600, Enlightenment looks great...

I couldn't wait, I installed it now. It's incredible. I'm never going back to IceWM. I'll post screen shots later...

I opened up Xtmix and cranked everything up, then tried to play an mp3 out of the Snack basic audio player and got nothing. But, when I turned the volume all the way up, I induced some massive feedback. So there is sound here, but the programs just aren't talking to the sound driver.

I tried plugging in headphones and got the same thing. No sound, but I can hear the backgroung static get louder as I adjust the volume. Is there anything that can be done for me? I gave as much info as I could think of, but if anything else is needed, please let me know. I really want to get this b...

I took Mark's advice and commented out that line. I haven't had any problems since, so I will mark this bug as SOLVED. Suggestion: Maybe this line should be deactivated permanently, especially for hard drive installations. I think most users would like to have complete control over the layout of the...

I was all geared up to install it, but I think I too will wait until the finished all-in-one dotPup is available. I still can't wait, though... I think we should put together a Puplet called PuppyEnlightened, which features the Enlightenment desktop. I agree with Lobster - this is what Puppy should ...

I downloaded the screenshot and set is as my wallpaper just to see what it would look like.

I can't wait to try it. I hope it works well in 800 x 600 resolution.

There are a few problems with user_devx that need straightened out (mismatched headers, etc.) Maybe that's why I've never been able to compile C++ programs in Puppy. I have usr_devx installed, and it starts compiling, but then it spits out errors about missing include files. I'm assuming these are ...

I run a phpBB board and from the start users have to be logged in to post. It may piss some people off, but with the Internet being what it is, we can't afford to leave our boards open to crap like this. As for the jpeg code, I know there's one that we use when people register. I don't know if it's ...

Thanks Mark, I'll try that when I get home. I saw your post on Enlightenment, and I can't wait to try it. I ran eLive once and was really impressed with it, and I'd love to have it in Puppy. I'm really getting into the Puppy thing and I want to do all I can to help with the project. Since I don't qu...

I checked out some of the scripts in the rc.d directory and from what I've seen, there's only one time when the PuppyPin file (that's the file that governs icon placement in ROX) is checked and altered, and that's when it checks for a dialup icon, which I removed from the desktop since I use etherne...
