Where do I find that log? With the first build I posted I had included the cut-down dri xorg package, with the hopes I didn't need the full version you said needs to be installed. Installed all the other puppy default pets. Didn't work. Actually, had major issues installing the other pet files for compiz-fusion... go figure. When I installed the full dri version over the top of those (from a running puppy, not through unleashed) I could install the other compiz pets, but got that error. Am now rebuilding unleashed again without the cut-down dri, but with the full version instead. In the notes from unleasehd it says that the full dri version is a complete xorg package, so to see what happens I'm going to try installing only that xorg package... will let you know if it boots or not. Basically, I'm wanting this puppy to be as sleek as possible, yet still able to run compiz-fusion. I'm tempted to make the next version of TigerPup (and eeetiger) very lean, with only Compiz-Fusion, xfce, and possibly avant-windows-navigator installed by default. (Ce la ve wbar) The rest could be included in an sfs extension. That would take TigerPup much closer to the 100Mb mark... anyway...

I'll get back to you. Where do I find that log?

Question Tom, Sadly I Don't have Any success 2 Report getting C-F installed w/ Dingo or even Xfce or NVidia 3D Drivers ( Altho' I'm Aware o' th' Availability o' Grays NOP Dingo which already have installed on M' Pentium 3 Dell Latitude C600 Laptop, But Unfortunately it has ATI Rage GraphiX, No Good 4 C-F ) the Reason I've Chosen 2 Not start w/ Grays NOP Dingo on "Max Headroom" ( M' HyperThreading Pentium 4 is that I'm Particularly 'Xcited 'bout Further Development Barry is doing w/ 4.1, Fast - Boot, SIP / VOIP, F-prot AntiVirus, & SMP, etc... ) So I've been Practicing w/ Latest aLpha 7, which o' I'm aware is Risky it Not being D'Bugged, But Evidently I've bitten - off more than I can chew! Sad Just Wund'rin' Mate when Y'r C-F Dingo iso will be released? ( or 'R' U also waiting 4 Dingo 4.1 Final, which Surely won't B' Too Long away!?! )

@dinky: That log is at /var/log/Xorg.0.log
I never actually built wNOP from unleashed, I just took NOP's pup_301.sfs and added some extra files to it. So are you trying to build TigerPup from scratch from Puppy 4 or 3.01?

@Max Headroom: Yeah, ATI Rage doesn't cut the mustard as they say, what's the card on yer other Pentium 4 machine? The next version of wNOP hasn't been made yet just because I've been busy with work, it could be a few more weeks yet I'm afraid Sad I hadn't really thought about using 4.1, I guess some stuff might need recompiling which is extra work,but then 4.1 does have some new exciting features like dual-core support...

@Tom, Thanx 4 Y'r Prompt Response, M' NVidia Card is a GeForce FX5200. Cool
Also as I Posted Earlier Barry Announced "4.1beta should be out by this coming Saturday or Sunday (6th, 7th September).
I start work at the Royal Show on 22nd, and would really like the final to be out by then. So I will set the 4.1final release date for 21st September.
There will be two live-CD iso's, 4.1retro with 2.6.21.7 kernel and 4.1 "normal" with 2.6.25.16 kernel." Very Happy

Hi tombh, yes, I'm rebuilding TigerPup from unleashed, Puppy 4. It sounds like 4.1 will be out soon, so likely the final release of TigerPups next version will be that. I wouldn't hold your breathe waiting, I'm still figuring out what I'm doing, and our next baby is due within a few weeks. Will have a go with that log soon. Cheers.

What video card are you using?

Could you attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log as a tar.gz to thread please?

Thanks.

I'm not 100%, but I think it's intel.

Log attached. Tell me if it's the right one, or I need to send another one after doing something.

Thank you aoiyamoto for this, I am 99% certain that your problem is caused by a bug that fails to fetch the i915 module from zdrv_400.sfs, to remedy this please add the line
Code:
modprobe -n i915
to the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.local and reboot.

I have now amended the How To for Intel cards to include this fix.

tom you might want to add that you can also use rox as the desktop in combination with a *box WM ie openbox oroborox fluxbox etc....

start rox with rox -S then run the WM in the .xinitrc or just start it with a simple script

Thank you very much. it now "works" enough to not crash when I try it, but I am getting two new errors. first is "Can't load plug-in dbus." and second is that the emerald theme thing isn't showing up even with emerald --replace. I had to type emerald --replace. after I got the dbus error so I could get te window buttons to show up, but there is no window. Also, is there a way I can use my other window border instead of emerald?

edit: fixed the emerald theme thing, but I'd still like to know if I can use others.

edit 2: The CCMM python package is missing "libtcl8.5.so and libtk.8.5.so"
Can someone tell me where to get those? Google doesn't help much for them.
