Subject description: fix '.' adding		  
Embarassed I was working with an upgrade from 4.2.1 to 4.3.0. Pwidgets was included
in 4.2.1, but not in 4.3.0, so I was running pwidgets 2.0.8. The current pwidgets is
version 2.1.0 and it displays the puppy version correctly.

Interesting. My Broadcom is correctly detected and configured in 2.6.30.5. Just lucky I guess.............

Any chance of the specials you did for Eee PC's for the new kernel?

I am particularly after the ones for the function keys and CPU/fan stuff.

Yes. Almost ready. See -

Still no luck with starting X on my Radeon HD 4650. Can I have a workaround for this from the command line? Any help would be highly appreciated. And it would be great to know why X runs perfectly fine on 4.2 but not on 4.3.

What does Menu > System > PupScan show for the sound card in the PCI interfaces listing? Do you see anything relevant in the /var/log/messages log?

Pupscan lists all devices correctly, but no modules found.

Maybe it's the same for you.I saved a copy of my old 421 file to a flash disc then deleted what was on the hdd,reinstalled 430 and it detects the network card and saves the settings now.

It seems to be similar to one of my problems with 4.30 I've reported above - when I boot from CD and there's just only pupsave-xxx.2fs file on the hard disk, Puppy loads the saved state and finds network devices. Yet, on shutdown, it saves the pup-430.sfs file to hard disk and on the next boot doesn't load any network driver modules and finds no network devices. Deleting the file again helps.
Do you successfully boot from CD repetedly now?

I have found a bug or two in /usr/bin/remasterpup2

line 329 should read:
sort -u /tmp/root/.packages/woof-installed-packages > /tmp/woof-installed-packages-tmp

and line 331 :
echo -n "" > /tmp/root/.packages/user-installed-packages

They were both missing the output redirect >

I had the same problem in my laptop. Crying or Very sad Everything worked fine in live CD Boot. Then I created a pupsave and reboot, but Puppy saved pup-430.sfs file on hard disk at second boot (I really hate this behavior, I don't have enough free space for each Puppy in my HD, I always use pupsave and nothing elese), and then I lost network driver modules, lost CPU Frequency scaling modules and lost the battery indicator in Task Bar. I had the same problem even in successive boots.

I could fix it just copying the zp430305.sfs file in the same partition where Puppy previously saved the pup-430.sfs file, It's seems a stupid bug. When Puppy boot and find a pupsave it "always" copy pup-430.sfs but not p430305.sfs in the same pupsave's path, then doesn't search further for zp430305.sfs in media devices and just doesn't load any driver.

Hope you could fix your problem cichlasoma, I'm sure you have to copy zp430305.sfs to HD. Please try and feedback.

Greetings,
clarf

The Package Git is broken especially "git pull" dont work !

I was just at the git irc chanell and asked what could be the problem and this was here the answer.

hello to all. can somebody tell me how to resolve this ugly problem here ?/usr/libexec/git-core/git-pull: line 204: exec: git-merge: not found
git: 'pull' is not a git-command. See 'git --help'.

Did you mean this?
pull

this here are all files in git-core folder. could it be that something is missed ?

Well, that error message really looks like some busted git installation.

Aw... Seems like they stripped out all direct executables for builtin commands, but didn't note that some scripts need the direct executables for those...

clarf I can confirm that when running with a pup-save file that you need to copy the zp430305.sfs and the pup-430.sfs or you will lose your modules. I have it set up with a pup-save on a usb flash drive with the pup-430.sfs and with out the zp.sfs I had the same problems. With the zp.sfs everything is working fine.

Have tried "simple remaster" of 430 small iso.
and full iso.

Cd boots fine, but when trying to use it to make a full install,
I get "Error 2, bad file or directory, when rebooting.



The remaster problem seems to be confined to 2.6.30.5 kernel.
Didn't have any problem with 430 2.6.21.7.

Edit:
Tried simple remaster with Ttuuxxxs' latest 430 2.6.30.5 and it had
no problem booting.....obviously not a kernel issue.
