Failed to show the Ethernet option in the network dialogue. I have been able to connect in all other puppy's but Insidious Puppy 001 to the internet. I think this is my Ethernet card: "02:0f.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)". It work in Wary 098.

PostPosted: Sat 18 Dec 2010, 12:40    Post subject: 3G  

I finally got my 3G modem working! For me as a newbie it was really tricky job. You guys are talking about PupDial (aren’t you? Embarassed ). I couldn’t get it working with it (obviously too difficult for me), but instead I succeeded with GPRS wizard.

My Nokia CS-17 was correctly detected right after inserting it. Oddly on the PGPRS modem setup window the list detected devices included: /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/usb/ttyUSB /dev/ttyS0. None of them wasn’t correct. Finally (after several evenings trying everything) I realized that PupDial wizard found different device /dev/ttyACM0. Inserting that into line Serial modem Device File and tadaa, I was in the Internet!

I booted Wary from cd in two different laptops (HP Omnibook xe3 and IBM T40) and both connections were successful with same setup. Here is my setup (at least may help Puppy Wary users in Finland, operator DNA).

Serial Modem Device File: /dev/ttyACM0
APN: internet
Username: dna
Password: internet
Phone number: *99#
Phone PIN: <my pincode>

I hope this is useful information for someone. If not, sorry I am really newbie with these things. Embarassed

Subject description: FBReader problem using Wary 1.0.2
 

Installed (separately) FBReader 0.12.1 and 0.12.8 in Wary 1.0.2. It loads and reads books as it should, but when trying to add books to the library, the dialog box disappears immediately after a book is selected, not allowing one to input the auxiliary data, and the program terminates.

After restarting FBReader, the book does appear to get added to the library, however.

On further investigation, this looks like it may be a problem internal to FBReader. If one designates a book directory, the above problem no longer exists.

Puppy figures out the psubdir variable automatically, based on location of vmlinuz. it shouldn't have broken it by explicitly specifying psubdir though.

PostPosted: Sat 18 Dec 2010, 17:15    Post subject: iso size  

It would be nice to be able to easily reduce the size of the iso by leaving out unneeded drivers etc. This was accomplished in Wary 096 with a "zrdv" file which one could take out of the iso. It resulted in a significant reduction. Another option would be a "small" version of the iso like the one that was created for Puppy 4.31.

I tried that already too.

This one (The first one I used and posted):
Code:
default luci

label luci
  kernel /luci/vmlinuz
  append initrd=/luci/initrd.gz pmedia=cd psubdir=luci

label wary
 kernel /wary/vmlinuz
 append initrd=/wary/initrd.gz pmedia=cd psubdir=wary
worked before.

My Canon i965 printer, connected via a Windows computer, using the driver from Takushi at Kyoto University, works fine. Just had to add the usual symlink named libtiff.so.4 to whatever version of libtiff is installed- libtiff.so.3.8.2 in this case.

Great! I might retire Puppy 431!

Ok, I have modified the libtiff PET to have that symlink.

Just bought a Huawei E1550 3G modem with a week’s worth of surftime included to test on wary-102.

Results are mixed. I get the mode switch-over notifications and that the modem is ready. I followed the setup instructions, making the choices as suggested and filled in the fields as appropriate for my carrier:

APN: net.tre.se
Phone: *99#
Username: void
Password: void
PIN: <myPIN>

Clicking on ‘connect’ I get (from pupdial.log):

Only once, during testing, did it connect and I was online:

Paul,
In the case where it did not work, the log is interesting. It seems to be saying that there is no initialization string other than ATZ.

When you ran PupDial and it probed the modem to determine and initialization string, you should have ended up with a string in the "Initialization string 3" field -- did you get anything in that box?

On the otherhand, in the case where connection did succeed, it seems that you would have had something in that box.

Barry, here are the results from my latest tests showing init string 3 at different points.

After I have used the modem in windows, then boot wary-102 with pfix=ram and connect the modem, I get this init string3:
Code:
ATQ0V1E1S0=0&D2
and I can connect.
I get this pupdial.log:
Code:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.53

AT+CPIN=<PIN>

--> Don’t know what to do!  Starting pppd and hoping for the best.
--> Starting pppd at Sun Dec 19 09:03:05 2010
--> pid of pppd: 32703

If I now re-boot (with pfix=ram), plug in the modem and run the wizard again, I get this init string3:
Code:
ATQ0V1E1S0=0&C1&D2
and I can connect.

Now I unplug the modem and plug it back in, then run the wizard again. Init string3 is
Code:
ATQ0V1E1S0=0&C1&D2
but I cannot connect. Pupdial.log
Code:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.53

AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP”,"net.tre.se"

--> Bad init string.


In previous testing, I did end up on some occasions with an empty init string 3.
I'll test some more and see if it happens again.

Added note: The PC I tested on had problems booting with the modem plugged in. Seems like the BIOS treats the modem as a CDROM and tries to boot from it.

PostPosted: Sun 19 Dec 2010, 06:27    Post subject: Different mouse events behaviors on desktop  

Would you test this:
Click on Tray Menu, Menu opens. Quit Menu with a click on the desktop. Click on an icon, e.g. console or edit, the appli opens with just one single click = normal behavior.
Now, Right click on the desktop, Menu opens, don't choose any item and drag over an icon. You need a triple click to open an appli, one for the desktop event and two for the icon event; this is a little confusing on Wary, Quirky and Lupu needing just one click for the icon event.
Cheers
Edit:
This a little bit strange test aims at bringing to light (it is not an explanation) the behavior of JWM and Rox on this issue.To show further:
Ordinary when you launch an appli from the Menu, e.g. Menu / Filesystem / Rox-Filer file manager, JWM opens a window and you have the focus on it. If you click directly from this window on any desktop icon (= the pinboard of Rox) Wary needs two clicks instead of one click in Quirky-Lupu.
Now if you launch an appli, navigating from the appli already opened with the pinboard, directly to another icon, the Wary behavior is "standard" = one click to open.

A continuation of my tests with the Huawei E1550.

This test is after the last test where I 're-plugged' the modem and got an error when trying to connect.

I booted once again with pfix=ram, plugged in the modem and ran the wizard.
This time the init string3 is blank (no string).

I filled in string3 with:
Code:
ATQ0V1E1S0=0&D2
clicked connect and was online.

pakt,

I notice that you have an angled closing double quote in all your logs
Code:
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP”,"net.tre.se"


It is as if the string was closed in a word processor. I think they call them smart quotes. It is a 2 byte Unicode character 201D.

Also just looking at the log in the live pupdial window in my Q130, no APN has been sent!

I don't know why you can't connect everytime.
