usual frugal pfix=ram install with spup broadcom pet. tried pns-tool then got doubles on my 2wire789 wifi connection. see pics below and report from pns-tool and sns report.
unable to connect using sns, connection wizard, nor with frisbee
rebooted to several diff distros with all showing the same situation with doubles of 2wire789 and unable to make connection regardless of tool used.

So,
I've been grumping over console fonts not being correctly displayed in some modern pups; Swedish letters åäöÅÄÖ are not shown correctly in a terminal (as in another tty, or after exit-to-prompt - in terminal emulators they're correct).
I boot with "pkeys=se" on the kernel line, which gives proper character rendering in X, but in slacko (and other modern pups, such as the lu[ci|pu]s), in a terminal (not a terminal emulator) I see
"sigma, SIGMA, ÷, à, ä, û"
instead of "åäöÅÄÖ" - only a half right there, small ä instead of capital Ä, at least the correct letter.
In wary (tested up until 5.1.3) these letters are represented correctly in a terminal.
In slacko these letters are correctly displayed in a terminal if booted with pfix=nox, and only then ....
I just discovered that in slacko, in another tty (e.g. Ctrl+Alt+F3) if I run the Swedish letters are displayed as they should, though the font-size diminishes from small to very small.
Somehow there is a connection with these mis-represented characters in the console and the very small-sized screen of e.g xorgwizard; is this caused by some fb-driver .....?
Reason for not settling with C/US/ASCII-7 fonts in the teminal is that I sometimes need to use these letters when working at the terminal. Besides, links has re-newed this need immensely (though, wary doesn't display se-characters correctly in links, either)
Just rambling in seek of an answer ........
Apart from the above console font rant:
Everything I've tried in slacko-b3 thus far, worked, even abiword behaved better, no mini-patches of white writing area in a big gray any longer .....
My test flash-video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnBlst3T7bY) is slightly stuttering, although watchable .........
Another nice release / MHHP

We are now heading towards the last few weeks of Slacko before release.
We need a logo, all previous were for 'Spot'
- name is Slacko, Puppy Slacko 5.3, License to GNU
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/ArtSpot
Many thanks to Mick, Barry and our team of intrepid testers, compilers and well wishers
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/Puppy53Developers
Do we have jobs for these guys, kindly offering their help early on?
Jay (puppyLuvr) - Compiling something ... A cute GUI ... backgrounds and icons...themes
Iguleder - SFS, E17, fonts, compiling
Ttuuxxx I would be willing to support this release ... should be almost 100% compatible and about 10% smaller
Nooby, dejan555, Tasgarth, withoutpity, wuwei, Stripe, James C, aarf, rcrsn51, dawnsboy, peebee, bigpup, 8-bit, Jim1911 - testing
sc0ttman - a few GUIs, make a few PETs, testing, etc...
Ian Milgrew - I would love to support Puppy 5.3 so just let me know how I can help and I'll do the best that I can.
Scsijon - You can add me in somewhere, testing, those few apps I 'package', a spare site to host the alphas/betas to spread the load, anything else I can do.
Playdayz - I have already helped Mick by making a slackware pet for the ATI Catalyst driver, and I will help in the process as a tester.
TubeGuy - Logo idea, need feedback!
If Icyos is about maybe a tutorial on using the new Pns-tool Wi-fi support (whatever that is)?
I am using FF 6 to post this. I rather like Stumbleupon and Nosquint which are not yet available for Seamonkey 2.4.
No real problem to add a browser. Setup all OK. Hope to see PSIP 32bit in Slacko soon . . .
Tried to get Smokey interested in a help manual (like in Lucid)
. . . lot of work
Day to day usage is our best way of improving.
I am finding it very stable. Mplayer is working well for me.
Gonna download the devx (makes me sound like a coder )
and setup my ATI driver . . .
Thanks guys

Hi Mick,
Manual frugal installation on an NTFS partition. Everything appears to be working fine (including the wireless internet connection) except for the printer. It is a HP Officejet 6500 Wireless and it is not recognized by Slacko. Installed hpijs_print-3.11.3.pet and hplipd_scan-3.11.3.pet as reported for my main computer which also had a problem. Sys-info report is attached.
I have no idea why text isn't wrapped. It is on my monitor. Posting using Firefox 7.0 using a wireless connection.
Regards,
Jim

Didn't that printer work ok in earlier slacko? I'm thinking it's a usb issue.. Barry changed heaps of libs with his "no xcb" compile fest and I almost bet that's what has broken it.. every woof there is certainly something that gets broke in Slacko
FWIW, my canon-mp490 installed ok and prints from abiword. There is a bug with abiword, again from woof, .odt isn't working though the plugin is there

When pasting a long line please use the code tags for formatting, the forum doesn't handle it well, as everyone can see.
I am not sure if that firmware would work for you, as this kernel is 2.6.37.6, too early. Nothing changed with Frisbee or the driver, so again I'll blame the libs, I'll revert all the libs to B2 versions and bring out B4 soon.

Re: Slacko B3
01micko I'm not a Frisbee lover but think if something is in a distro release it should work. The sns and connection wizard do not work for those who have new HP laptops and other brands with the crap broadcom wl.ko driver.01micko wrote:
*jim3630, peebee (and others) - I know you are Frisbee lovers...
Frisbee does work for all those people because it rewrites sns and connection wizard's failed scripts.
Frisbee only appears to conflict with sns and the connection wizard because novice users do not know if they use Frisbee not to touch sns and connection wizard.
If Puppy didn't connect to the internet out of the box the first time I used it I would not have gone online looking for a program to try to make it work.
Around the world in many counties internet connection time costs are high and charge by the minute. People can not afford the luxury of reading online nor have unlimited download time.
Linux was a gift so all people everywhere could have a quality os with quality programs. Puppy strives to embrace novice users.
This was worked out in Lucid 528, 529 and numerous pups recently built so not needed to reinvent the wheel nor risk writing off potential Puppy linux users.
jim3630,
Of course your point is taken. If you try a pristine boot with Frisbee, can you connect?
I guess it may be worth the bloat of 1 driver (1% of the size if the iso , curse broadcom! [and with Frisbee about 1.8%]) to include for victims of broadcom.
I was hoping that the pns-tool may work for you, oh well, was worth a shot, it's only 3K.
Cheers

01micko will have to learn those code tags. I used # setfont but as see didn't help.01micko wrote: jim3630

firmware alone won't work without the drivers. maybe miss read BarryK's post that it would be in all new Woof builds. thought that would include slacko as it is built on Woof.
hi all
its looking very good so far, just watched the moto gp on iplayer without trouble (about 180 minutes)
one little problem, on the lappy I cant get the touchpad to tap. have tried changing the settings in flsyclient but no joy. any ideas?
totally off topic: does anyone know of a recent sopcast pet
? or other non flash video streaming software.
cheers
don

01micko pfix=ram installed broadcom_wl-k2.6.37.6spup.pet and your newest frisbee 2.2pet rebooted to find frisbee acquired wifi on eth1.01micko wrote:jim3630,

success!
I don't recall. I did update a save file from v. 3 and the printer does not work in it. Unfortunately, disks older than 499.4 have already been tossed so I can't go back and test again very easily. This report is based on a fresh installation of 499.5. The HP Officejet 6500 Wireless works fine using Fatdog 64-520 and Lucid THD 5.2.9. Incidently, 499.5 does recognize usb flash drives.01micko wrote:Jim1911

Stripe- flSynclient-0.7 is in the repo, IIRC was ok for you in B2.
Rob- is pemasu's the same? I know you've been working on fprot for a long time.
Jim.. try the usb lib, attached

Mick,
I saw F-prot as version 6 from pemasu after I had petted it myself.
I petted version 6.03 as on f-prot site, don't know if pemasu's is the same.
XF-prot version 2.4 , I don't know, I was unaware of the work done by pemasu. As you know I fixed Xfprot a long time ago and just continued on.
I left out the virus signatures as this kept size down. The user just pressed the update button and it downloaded latest anyway.
There is a problem with the icons which I noticed today, as i don't use it myself.

Mick,
For a first start item, check out the additional software/utilities.
I rewrote firewallstate code over as a flag icon representing the keyboard country. Could be first run then deleted if wanted. It's about 35kb
EDIT: Typical, one typo and USA gets a French flag Fixed it
