Please compile the broadcom wifi (wl.ko) (in 2.6.27.7). My comp won't connect to internet without wl.ko. (I can't compile that myself). Please...

Hey Lobster
A Big thanks for the wikka info

in progress
slaxer-pup will focus on compiling all the apps from source
instead of borrowing pre-compiled packages

Yes Joe that is the best way by far, way less deps, smaller file sizes, and more current release numbers. :) I would like to see that done to Spup and Dpup, probably shave 15mb off the iso.

@big_bass
Thank you very very much
Your pet help me connect (wife) to internet. I post this with my laptop (emachines - D725 - CPU T4200 - 1Gb RAM.

1. Step 1:
#lsmod
-> To check out what modules are loaded. b43 and b43legacy were'nt loaded (That's OK)
2. Step 2
# modprobe wl
-> No error message -> That's good
3 Step 3
Run network wizard -> See the eth1 interface -> Choose "eth1" -> Choose "AutoDHCP" -> Wait -> OK Save Config .
4. Step 4
Run Pwireless from menu.

Thank you again. Be happy! please

oh yes...and thanks for your feedback...I had tried slaxer before ...liked it...but had this stumbling block. I would like to see the one-kernel-does-all boogie happening and this is the closest I got :)

vanchutr

great news I added the line of code modprobe wl to the pinstall

since that worked for you

thanks for listing your steps
-----------------------------------------------------------------


mikeb

I was glad to hear you needed that module also

*its more difficult to set up modules for hardware you don't have this is where testing is so needed thanks

chmsee: Segmentation fault

#331 Post by vanchutr »

Please check installation of chmsee. I'd met this message (in slaxerpup)

Code: Select all

# chmsee
Segmentation fault
#
Replace chmsee with kchmviewer. The last one run smoothly on slaxerpup

Hey vanchutr

a gtk error

I updated and compiled gtk to a newer version gtk+-2.12.9-i486-slxr


remove pizzasgood patched gtk-xinput-2.12.1-i486-slxr.tgz
if it was installed side note :there isn't anything wrong with it but for version numbering and compatibility slackware 12.2 uses a later version

then install gtk+-2.12.9-i486-slxr.tgz

http://puppy2.org/slaxer/gtk+-2.12.9-i486-slxr.tgz

*I will also update chmsee

thanks for posting

I compiled the latest cmake 2.6.4


So, if you use the devx *tgz version not the sfs http://puppy2.org/slaxer/412-devx-i486-2.tgz
you can just

install http://puppy2.org/slaxer/cmake-2.6.4-i486-2-slxr.tgz

and easily update the compiler

Yeah. About 50 kg lighter and younger than I'd imagined. But what the heck, I'm still using Slaxer despite Barry's latest and best. It "just works".

Thanks, Joe. Thanks very much.
