Fatdog2 alpha2 T2 build with Woof alpha9

[kirk]

I did a T2 build and used Woof to build a new Fatdog. I did a T2 build back in October, when Xorg 7.4 first came out. Then I rebuilt puppy with it. LOTS of work. Xorg 7.4 really sucked with intel chips then, much better now. Woof sure worked slick. Very nice. Still lots of things to fix, but much better than before. Used Barry's T2 profile with the T2 trunk packages from a couple weeks ago. I did change a couple things. I updated the Mesa package to the latest (7.4.3), and changed the QT4 conf to build with opengl.

I've attached a list of packages that I built with T2, not all of these are included in the iso, also compiled these:

Firefox 3.5rc2
Scribus 1.3.3.13
Gimp 2.6.6
Pdfedit
Xine-ui
Sylpheed
openbox
lxpanel
Linux 2.6.28.10

And lots more. The full Xorg 7.4 is in there. Similar package selection to Fatdog 110.

You can get the ISO here :

And the devx file which includes the kernel source:

Hopefully this file host isn't too big of a pain.

Xorg will auto configure it self. The original xorgwizard is still there, I renamed it xorgwizard-org. Openbox-lxpanel is the default, JWM can be switched to from the menu. I was going to only use JWM, but, Xorg 7.4 + Intel graphics + 24 bit color + JWM = no icons. This isn't a problem for lxpanel. Haven't test out Cups much, works with my network printer. I'm not quite up to speed on how Gutenprint works with the new cups. I see cups-genppd.5.2 is commented out in cups_shell.

Anyway testers are welcome. Right now I'm mainly looking for bug reports with solutions.
It late here, hope all this makes sense .

Edit: Kompozer is in there too. The ISO is 142MB.

Hi Kirk,
Downloading the iso to check if that nasty problem (running out of the CD was OK, but black screen if installed on AAO) is solved.
Since Xorg is different it might be solved.

Naughty, naughty !

Xorg auto config on fujitsu siemens desktop lousy, mouse moving but not clicking.
With pfix=nox,ram then in console mode xorgwizard-org keyboard not active in wizard, but still acts on console...

I've uploaded alpha2. Fixed a problem with locales, the keyboard and country wizards will run on first boot. Xorg will still auto-configure.


Eztuxer,

1. What kind of mouse do you have (usb, ps/2, serial)? How many buttons?
2. What kind of video card (ATI, Intel, Nvidia.....)?

3. How much RAM do you have?

4. Do you use a US keyboard? Is it ps/2 or usb?

Xorg auto config on fujitsu siemens desktop lousy

Is that just the mouse problem or is the display poor too?

You might try alpha2 if you think it's a localization problem. I have not tested a usb install yet.

I'd like to put Fatdog on a diet with all the latest and greatest he's gotten quite obese (142MB). Maybe cut Kompozer?

Second version is out. Hmm, just finished getting the first.

Any xdelta?

Cheers.

DESCRIPTION: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller
VENDOR: 8086 DEVICE: 2572 KERNEL MODULE: unknown

The wizard opened on Xorg and chose the right option I think, but the ps2 round plug (Labtech wireles) mouse was only moving, n ot clicking.

When in text mode I invoked the "old" wizard, the keybord didn't follow into the dialog box.

I didn't get to USB install this was first test off the CD.

Downloading Puppyluvr's PAW now, so I'll download and try Alpha 2 tomorrow.
