Hello

I'm liking the look of this Puplet but there's one thing before I give it a try out.

In other, slightly older, Puppies I have experianced what I understand is a bug in JWM that stops Flash video eg. YouTube from working in full screen. Has this been fixed in the JWM you have used in stardust?

Thanks
Will

Thanks ttuuxxx

That's what I was wanting to know. I'll probably give Stardust a try as it looks pretty cool Smile

All I can say is WOW!! This derivative is getting better all the time. 01micko's Delta deal works immaculately. I am using full install and had the 005 iso where I had downloaded it so I put it in a directory and downloaded the Delta and put it in with it ,pressed the button for the gui and pressed the generate button and Bingo. Burnt the iso and loaded and installed it .All too easy.
Cups worked seamlessly with my HP5550 Deskjet printer and it printed the test page instantly.Gutenprint Driver.
Thanks to all concerned. Regards Dennis

Zigbert.
I tried a fresh D/L in case the old one was corrupted, but I'm still getting the ' power off ' issue. I'm trying Stardust on a relatively elderly (ca. 1998 ) Dell laptop, which may have something to do with it, although 4.2.1 was OK. I'm going to try ttuuxxx's 4.31.1, if that has the same problem then it looks as if 4.3.1 and my laptop just can't get on.

technowomble,

Hve you try booting with parameter:

acpi=force or acpi=off

Older hardware sometimes needs that.

(On the Grub Splash, you push F2 button to edit, then add the parameter, press enter)

Sorry, I should have (re)mentioned that I'm running a full install, trying to edit in the boot splash just gives me ' invalid device string '. I've tried doing a frugal install, but I'm obviously misunderstanding something in the instructions. Should I be running grub config from the live CD before I do the install?

technowomble,

or you can edit /boot/grub/menu.lst

title 4.3.1 Retro Final Frugal on hda4
rootnoverify (hd0,3)
kernel /431retro/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda4 rw vga=normal psubdir=431retro ide=nodma acpi=force
initrd /431retro/initrd.gz

Note: Stardust kernel will not suit older hardware well
