I couldnt find ath9k for my wireless connection. But kernel boots. And that is good start.
Edit: ath kernel module folder is missing, so i guess support for whole atheros wlan chipsets was not compiled in kernel.

Terryphi:
Thank you for testing, please give me your wlan card information.
I have recompiled ndiswrapper-1.56 for k-2.6.38.2, it runs well on my pc.
I will recompile the kernel if there has something in.


I have now tested on Lucid Puppy 525 and Wary 511. Neither can find wired connection.

Here is card information:

02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 01)



Thank you very much!
I find that only r8169 module drivers
you can try modprobe r8169.if though
I will compile r8168-8.022.00 driver, thank you!
I will re-upload soon

Crazy wild guess. Could the kernels for Puppy be specially made to include more drivers than the source that the OP made use of.

Does not we warn newbies that very modern puppies lack the drivers to the old computers so we recommend them to try out Wary5 instead of Lupu5?

I could be wrong Smile

Is the kernel batched with the usual patches Barry Kauler uses:
Example here: http://bkhome.org/sources/kernel-2.6.34.6/patches/

All aufs patches are probably most important ones.,

By the way, just compiled the kernel as curiosity, and added all missing net device drivers. Also I added hyperthreading and multicore-scheduler and deleted uvent helper path:sbin/hotplug.

Pemasu that would be cool to have a puppy with that one. A usual iso to download from Smokey? Just me suggesting not demand Smile

Late at night now so I say a friendly Good Night.

Want to know if this a error or a problem with kernel?

I activate the CPU freq scaling tool from wary 511 with the 3.6.38.2 kernel and select the one for my cpu but when check lsmod they activate the one that its for my cpu but add "mpert" that is for other processor.

Thanks!

wuxiandianzi: I am interested in testing if you have compiled a version with the r8168 driver.

PostPosted: Thu 07 Apr 2011, 12:30    Post subject: kernel works with Lucid puppy 5.2  
Here's my report

I tested puppylinux/kernel/wxdz/k2.6.38.2/2.6.38.2.sfs
with Lucid Puppy 5.2 and it worked well
except for the sound and my wacom Bamboo tablet
(the wacom driver didn't install in the right folder apparently).

Retrovol wouldn't launch and alsamixer would launch then disappear.
My chip is the ICH - Intel 82801BA-ICH2

Here is the output of the computer's description.
There's no mention of my audio chip.
Code:

Resources
I/O Ports

1840-187f Intel Corporation 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 12)
1c00-1cff Intel Corporation 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 12)

PCI Devices

Multimedia audio controller
Intel Corporation 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 12)
Summary
Computer
Processor  Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.00GHzMemory253MB (60MB used)
Operating System   Puppy Linux 0.52

My fourth compile with this kernel. I got my wireless, eth0 and webcam working with it.
It should have more wireless drivers enabled. The whole lot of staging drivers.

No quarantee of working expect for me.

Download links:

http://smokey01.com/pemasu/Kernel-2.6.38.2/kernel_src-2.6.38.2-lupe6.sfs

Best way to test kernel is to use woof and use the kernel pet with ./3builddistro.

pemasu:

Is it possible to test your kernel without using Woof? I am using frugal installs only.

As you can see above in the thread I have tested using the wuxiandianzi method.

Terryphi. Sure you can test as you have done before. It is just my humble opinion about most reliable method.
Happy testing with the method you prefer.
