That's the action question, isn't it? Answer. I can make an EZ-Woof-525 V2 with the Instant Update included *and* the capability to use an advanced kernel. as soon as I see a compatible advanced kernel built in Lucid 5.2.5 in EZ-Woof-525. One criterion of "compatible advanced kernel" is that everything works correctly on first boot, including audio, and it undergoes some testing to insure there are no obvious glitches--it will play video correctly on youtube and hulu just for instance. <Add> Concerning the audio, all sound cards should be detected and configured.

 Hello,
Agreed completely, and we are not there with 5.25 yet... I am examining the differences between 5.25 and pemasu`s IcePuppy series, which work exceptionally well for something "R.H.E." as he put it... My 5.29 has the exact bugs you listed, but IcePuppy doesnt (except the alsa location bugs, which should be no problem)...Same kernel, different build... Flash, ie youtube, escapes me as of yet... Works fine at regular size, or in a popup....but fullscreen goes white, and renders my laptop unresponsive... Only restarting X restores the desktop, and leaves firefox running as a zombie...killall wont...only pprocess will kill it.. Currently, testing with FF 3.03 and Flash 10... Firefox`s "crash reporter" states it did not create a "dump".. It must be flash...I will update FF and Flash, and try again... . _________________ "Close the "Windows", and open your eyes, to a whole new world" http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/puppyluvr/ http://theplpd.webs.com/

I have been using pemasu's 2.6.38.4 kernel with lucid puppy 525 lite for a few days now other than minor bug already highlighted its been working well for me. Currently using firefox 4 and flash http://smokey01.com/stu90/lucid.puppy.pets/flashplayer-10.2.159.1.pet I haven't encountered any problems with full screen flash on the sites i use like youtube, tvcatchup, seesaw. |

2.6.38.4 kernel is still work under progress, testing and feedback. 2.6.38.2 kernel used in Ice Puppy-006 http://www.smokey01.com/pemasu/KernelPets/Kernel-2.6.38.2-lupe15/ is more tested overall about hardware detection. 2.6.38.4 will still go through new kernel compilations. Just wanted to say that because of this fast speed in new builds. I knew from before that progress in Puppy Community is quick, 2 months old build is called dinosaur, lol. |

A word of caution to those not experienced with woof, like myself. The problems I had reported earlier in this thread about the /sandbox3/pinstall.sh script modifying the running system are not caused by woof. They are from the pinstall.sh scripts from individual .pet packages. Apparently the woof build process takes these scripts and adds them to the /sandbox3/pinstall.sh and executes this during the build. Since .pet packages are normally additions to a Puppy system their pinstall scripts may be designed to modify that system instead of the build being created by woof. Do yourself a favor and review all of the pinstall scripts in the build tree (not just packages-pet) to be sure the changes will be made to the build and not to your carefully configured system. ~ P.S. This might also be the cause for some packages not working correctly after a build. _________________ |

For testers. 2.6.38.4-lupe18 has been released. It solves usb hdd detection problems found in some hw in previous kernel. Stu90 has already made Lucid Lite 525 using this kernel. He has also improved the volume setup by implementing asound.state usage inside alsamixer-fix script. I installed his previous fix to the Ice Puppy and got welcoming wuf wuf at first boot. Getting nearer.... |

re pinstall.sh dillemma: I have made a habit of building all pinstall.sh scripts woof compliant and still able to run if installed outside of woof. here is an example pinstall.sh:
Note the preceding DOT in the first part of the 'if' statement which executes in the current dir. I guess this should become standard. _________________ keep the faith  ..  |

Yes it should become standard. I will try to track that bad one down when I have time. One person's pinstall.sh made changes to my regular system. I am sure anyone can imagine that freaked me out. |

Firstrun pinstall.sh seems to be unfixed. It was discussed during 520 development and 01micko posted working version in the thread during that time. I have used that version since then. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=478768#478768 and the fixed version: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=478794#478794 |

pemasu and 2byte, Wow, talk about great minds running in the same channels. I just deleted the pinstall.sh in /packages-lupu/firstrun and built and it seems OK. Those other are still suspect. We will catch them in V2. |

Some automation in 3builddistro: Replace this:
with this:
This will copy ALL package lists and not just the Quirky one. You'll have only the package lists relevant to Lupu in EZ-Woof anyway, so it's just fine to use wildcards. Insert this:
before this:
This will automatically trim the documentation we all hate 
And this:
after this:
This will set the default font to DejaVu Sans 12px, instead of nothing, which makes stuff fallback to Sans 9 or 10, whatever it was. Some apps, like Opera, read the GTK font and if it isn't specified they fallback to their own hardcoded font and that sucks. _________________ Shahor, my Puppy concept |

Hello,
Playdayz, I have an odd question... While building my latest with woof, I wanted to include some stuff from debs.. So I installed the rest of dpkg... Did dpkg-deb -x package directory....they unpacked fine... I dumped them all, 7 of them, into one dir, and copied it into packages lupu... Gave it an entry in `specs like the rest... Built and tested my Pup...Everything else worked, but not the dock from the debs...Here is the WEIRD part.... On the top level, at /, are all 7 debs, AS DEBS.... 
How in the heck did woof repackage them???? I clicked them and they installed fine... Am I going nuts???? Im looking at them right now, and I am mystified.... Edit.. I just looked in sandbox3/rootfs-complete, and there they are, big as life!!! Serious Mysterious....
