Well this is the way it works in the puppy community.
There is indeed an ipinfo in frisbee. The developer is free to adapt the original one.

A forum member, radky, has developed another one based on the original one and called it ipinfo2.

So, nothing to worry about.

peebee,
If you want to go the frisbee route, after your puppy install afresh, don't run any connection network wizard, but install directly frisbee and use it exclusively.

<--------------<<< haha! Yep I have immortalised Billy in cartoon form Ed

Ok, ATI catalyst fglrx driver is compiled and uploaded.

I will need help with the pinstall script, so Lobster, mikesLr, davids45, Billtoo, playdayz.. anyone else with a late model Radeon video card please test and report your experience. It is not recommended to install the driver pfix=ram unless you are running the vesa driver, because radeon modeset=0 is running now and then you get no console when you install the driver !!! Shocked

It's written in the pinstall. I do have to improve it though, the driver does work ok for me.

Here it is: http://brainwavedesigncentral.net/micko01/stuff/puppy/spup/pet_packages-spup/ati_fglrx-11.7-k2.6.37.6-s.pet.. a whopper at 50M (about 137M installed, so make sure your save is big enough!)

The intention is to have this available from the slickpet/drivers tab.. slickpet detects save size and aborts if you don't have the space, warns if you are short on space. It also does an integrity check.

Now onto intel Brookdale

OK just ran/installed over my existing slacko
'aticonfig --install' ran OK but did not do anything visible on the command line . . .
xwin gave me a BSOD and I rebooted
I was given a choice of normal boot (xorgwizard ran automatically) or command line
I accidentally pressed normal Embarassed

but it worked
glxgears is a little faster
Here is the test video from slickpet

I can boot slacko 312.37 frugal-installed on USB-Flash (on system with hard disk, even if this hard disk not contained anything of slacko)

Ok Lobster.. um.. not really any closer.. drop to the prompt and try the aticonfig --initial again, then xwin. If it besods, type ctrl>alt>backspace, then type reboot, don't hit the power button.
