From Googling that card it appears that it is an RV670, a few of which were AGP instead of PCIe. As CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS is not set in the new kernel from Quirky I don't know if there is a way to get acceleration working if the radeon driver doesn't work.
-TazOC |
Correct. It is an RV670 and an AGP card. I'll do some trials with a few other things and let you know. It behaved the same way when I had Ubuntu 10.04 on the machine. The solution there was to do an install from the live CD then on the reboot, stop at grub and add nomodeset xforcevesa to the command line. Once booted to vesa I could go in and install the ATI proprietary drivers and reboot right to an xorg desktop without a problem. I'm not sure how proprietary drivers install into Puppy but will give it a try.

Hmm, what happens when you close the Warning message (see taskbar in screenshot)? If you had to Ctrl+Alt+Backspace or reset the machine, try opening MPlayer from the menu and then changing the video driver before opening the wmv. |
Good catch, that enabled preferences to be set. However, none of the other drivers worked either. I guess, that I can change the default player to gxine.
Thanks,
Jim

Failed for me to. Got a "kernel panic" when booting clean (selected not to load any pup-saves).
Got veasa running with mouse not working by letting it update one of my pup-saves  . I think it was ignoring "pfix=ram" too. Oh well. Poor you has a lot of debugging to do if you can face it still  .

Subject description: e-Sword installation |
|
The procedure referenced in my signature would not work to install e-Sword, so I installed the older wine-1.1.40. After that change, e-Sword works great.
You may not have seen that zigbert has updated Pprocess

Hi, have you tried puppy pfix=ram,nocopy i915.modeset=1 or something like that? I haven't got the copy-to-ram sorted out yet. In the initscript I set the MINRAM2CPY = 2.75 x size of main file which should be more than enough, but reports indicate the copy still fails with a kernel panic sometimes. Using the new-for-LHP 5.00 pfix=nocopy should prevent the kp.

Thanks for the tip, I haven't tried it with 5.00A. | Quote: | | You may not have seen that zigbert has updated Pprocess. |
No, I hadn't seen that, thank you. I did find an alternative that looks promising:

Yes, technosaurus, is trying to get it into DuDE which prompted zigbert to update his pprocess. The next version of DuDE will probably have the capability to access both.

One other quirk.
Using LXDE - I configure it with wbar at the bottom and system bar at the top.
When I exit to command prompt (say to run alsaconf) then xwin to reshow LXDE the system bar doesn't show. I can switch to other WMs (JWM Xfce) but on switching back to LXDE still no bar. I can only get it back by rebooting.

It has booted! There's a bug with pcdripper when it will just ask you if you want to rip another CD but you can't get to the rip screen.

Disregard the errors you found, they are normal. But no sound? Have you checked a couple of mixers to make sure everything is up? Also try the Multiple Sound Card wizard in Menu | Settings | Wizards. Did the sound suddenly stop or was it never working? That's odd. Jim1911 had sound problems in 4.43, not sure if he fixed it or how. | Barburo wrote: | One other quirk.

Make sure that /Startup has an lxpanel script in it. If clicking on it doesn't show the panel <4 secs, open the script with a text editor and paste the lines, one at a time in a terminal to see if there are any errors. I wonder if the --profile default is right? The panel configurations are in /root/.config/lxpanel/.No, but unfortunately it didn't apply to Quirky-based puplets, but thanks, though! | abushcrafter wrote: | | It has booted!

Thanks, we'll have to see if there is an update for that.

I forgot it had been fixed in woof! Oh well.

Don't think there is a update. Well I can't find anything from searching all the forums with the term "pcdripper".

Operator error perhaps - mixer had no controls selected.
Even though the system tray volume control showed 3/4 volume and no muting I only got sound after selecting controls in mixer. (I should have tried this first).
I cannot reproduce the lxde error today - I'll keep testing 5.00A to see if it comes back.
I'm really liking this version - the new default GTK theme with the "vista-like" green progress bars, the ability to turn off automount, the icons on the LXDE desktop for the mounted drives.

I cant use polish kayboard - I dont have polish letter, for examle: ż,ć,ą,ę... etc.
If I click right Alt, and try make Any letter, comuter think that I use enter, and text go down.
I try change kayboard for english and again for polish, reboot computer, but It nothing to do.
PS: In normal puppy linux (5.01,5.00,4.3.1) polish kayboard work exellent!
