On first boot I also get fuzzy patches on the screen and missing text in menus and window titles. This is using a 1280x1024 LCD monitor.

Dave, I'm thinking to go with sm-2.3beta, will compile tonight. And what I'd love to do is have both FF and SM on the iso as sfs and hitting the browse button the first time gives the option to load either.. we'll see..

Brown Mouse, next version (delayed a few days) will have at least nvidia-280, including glxgears
Dave.. SM-2.3b3 is 42 minutes through compiling at this minute.. (any second now ).. will upload when done.
I guess when theming tray icons it's great at first... (gnome, kde, win7 all have that issue! Apple don't.. but then what can you do with a mac apart from eat it?)
EDIT: Seamonkey-2.3 Beta 3 uploaded [17M]

Hi BeemBéèm wrote: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.
Thank you for your advice which I have followed exactly including doing a reboot after installing Frisbee_beta-2-spup
After setting up my wifi connection I have no internet connection and the 2 versions of ip-info show quite different wifi states as shown in the attached screen shot.
Frisbee did work OK in the previous 311.37 spup.
Cheers

The right most ipinfo indicates you have a connection at 1Mbps.
This seems to indicate a problem between your wifi card and the router/modem.
As for the left most ipinfo I got that also at times.
Don't know why I got it.
Does your other PC with Wifi connects correctly to the same router/modem?

there's nothing wrong with the wifi or router - all other pups lupu/luci 525/528 and dpup5x2 and wary 513connect just fine with frisbee
only spup 312.37 that has problems....

peebee that makes sense as Frisbee overwrites sns and connection wizard scripts, so at some point could have two different as shown. I use Frisbee in spup and works ok once configured.peebee wrote:

If you cannot use Frisbee exclusively to configure your driver and use sns or connection wizard to acquire your wifi, I did this once, just reboot before using Frisbee. after reboot only use Frisbee which will read those scripts and thus acquire your wifi settings. hope this helps.
Hi guys
I am going to download kirk's RC of FatDog-64-520 and see what he has done with Frisbee. I'm pretty dumb when it comes to network stuff, although I'd love to write an utility that works from the prompt so wifi can be connected outside of X. Porteus Linux has a pretty cool one which I may steal some ideas from.
As for Brookdale... I plugged in my widescreen LCD to my brookdale machine and this time it worked! No special voodoo. Bummer really.. [mine is rev 1]
Charlie, MinHundHettePerro (cum, Chien, or Koira maybe ).. can you see the dialog boxes when they pop up after boot? That is the first run wizard by shinobar. [It certainly seems as though JWM is part of the problem here, re cowboy]. If so, I may put in an extra gui detecting Brookdale and then offer to run a modded xorgwizard with Charlie's hacks. If not, I'll have to intercept Brookdales before xorgwizard is run and write a dialog that implements the modifications from the prompt before X starts at all.

fatdog64 and pemasu's snow pup and polar pups have built in wl.ko drivers and frisbee all working flawlessly with my hp broadcom wl.ko driver.
Unfortunately, I have no code writing skills but have read quite abit here on frisbee with wl.ko driver. some have added short 4 or 5 lines of code to correct the possible conflict between frisbee and sns. the conflict only occurs from what I've read when use frisbee and sns or connection wizard. I looked about for that code snipit but couldn't find it.

Thanks James.
Your chipset is rev 01 like mine so I'll filter them out as they appear to be unaffected by the Brookdale bug
EDIT... bugger! I just checked.. Charlie has rev 01 too, MHHP has rev 03.. IIRC cowboys is rev 02.. oh well we play along then ...
EDIT2: Ok, Charlie.. I have downloaded the updated intel driver you recommend.
I will put in a recommendation in my little "Brookdale" wizard to download mesa from slickpet driver tab, I will update it and package it up including glew. We already have the same version of libdrm included.

I am only reporting this because it is a difference in behaviour between 311.37 and 312.37 when using Frisbee.
I will try using Jim3630's suggestion of using sns - reboot - Frisbee and report back.
The thing I notice really different about Frisbee on 312.37 is the message mechanism - most of the Frisbee messages have disappeared completely and the first one that appears warning of a possible 45 second delay to acquire a connection seems to hang around for far too long....
Cheers

Congratulations
To 01micko for his spup being nominated officially a puppy and thus will hit distrowatch.
