Thank you. I just rechecked 5.X.7 uniprocessor and it's not recognizing the ENE card reader. For Lucid 5.25 & 5.28 I used keucr_2.6.33.2-lupu525.pet compiled by Dawnboy (I believe) and it works in 5.25 & 5.28.

If you're going to move on to a new kernel with this as just a development version it may not be worthwhile to worry about the ENE card reader until a release version. I was under the impression that the newer kernels were compiled to enable it (at least in Ubuntu) without doing anything special, but I've been known to be wrong (frequently). Thanks again for your work.

P.S. I've read with envy about your bicycling around the Finland lakes. I did something for the first time today you may not have experienced: I went to a buffalo (American bison) roundup in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Just like the Westerns on TV. Enjoy life!

MoebusNet. Yes, I know about keucr module and compiling it. I was the first to compile it for Puppies. I did it for Snow Puppy and 2.6.35.7 kernel, asked by myke, if I remember right. Latest Snow Puppy-020 has it preinstalled.
I gave some directions in that dawnsboy thread also. Thats why I am so amazed that your ene card reader is not recognized. I have enabled keucr module long time in my kernels.
When you boot to the X. As first thing, could you post the result of dmesg.
In console dmesg > dmesg.txt. Rename it as dmesg.gz and upload it here.
I would like to see what happens when your modules are loaded during boot time.

Yeah. Last summer was wonderful. I rollerskated, cycled and spent time in the lakes with my kids. I took a lot great pics from the countryside around the lakes. I was really happy in our summer house. There are great cycling routes around several lakes and rivers.
But your adventure is something I cant encounter in Finland. :D

As requested.

BTW, local news crew got video of Buffalo roundup. Better than my pics (they were closer):

They'll probably keep video up a couple of days.

MoebusNet. You dont have any ene card reader even detected.

In my dmesg:

Code: Select all

[   30.798681] keucr: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you have been warned.
[   30.802159] usb --- usb_stor_init start
[   30.802182] usbcore: registered new interface driver eucr
[   30.802184] ENE USB Mass Storage support registered
.

Somehow your ene card is not detected. I wonder what happens if you load keucr manually in console: modprobe keucr
Would it lead to the appropriate keucr loading and is your ene card reader detected after that. Probably not.

You're quite right; not detected after "modprobe keucr".

Here is a little application for testing that creates a mount point for phones when connected via bluetooth.

Follow the guide here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 411#566411

After setup with the phone still in a visible state run autoblue to create mount points.

@Pemasu: I was wrong, completely wrong (beats head on floor): Not being used to urxvt, I didn't realize I wasn't seeing the bottom 6 lines of dmesg.txt after "modprobe keucr" in console:

[ 2510.460637] keucr: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you have been warned.
[ 2510.466231] usb --- usb_stor_init start
[ 2510.466302] usbcore: registered new interface driver eucr
[ 2510.466323] ENE USB Mass Storage support registered.

It appears that keucr loads, but I still can't mount my SD card. Is this progress?

MoebusNet. Yes, it is progress. Your card is detected and keucr has been loaded and the loading of the module has been successful. Now it remains unknown, why the mounting does not work. Do you have different SD cards to the test if they make the difference.

The dmesg I originally sent was booting without an SD card in the reader. As an experiment, I copied the dmesg booting without the SD in the reader, then copied the dmesg after inserting the SD card. Looks like keucr is self-starting, recognizes the ENE card reader but not recognizing the SD card. I tried a different SD card, but not recognized either. Both recognized in 5.28.

Your ene card reader is addressed as sdc. There is a lot errror messages. Main thing is that the SD card detection fails, with redundant failure messages.

The keucr module cant be totally non working, since I use it with my ene card reader successfully. I think about the problem, but I dont have any solution atm.

Thank you.

BTW, SeaMonkey upgraded to 2.4.1. Working great so far!

ISO file won't mount when clicked on

#1032 Post by Tman »

I found this problem in various modern puplets, including Xprimo, as well as in my own builds. Please see the attached link.

Tman. It works for me. Believe me, I have mounted my own isos many...many....times. But...if you have 6 mounted drives, partitions whatever already, then you need to unmount at least one, so that the iso mounting works.

Check your /mnt how many mounts you have there active.

Hmmm, interesting.

I am not home at the moment and using another computer with a few frugal pups installed. I know it worked for me on my home computer, I just can't remember which pup I used it on last.

This computer has only 1 windows partition and a linux swap partition, while my home desktop has 3 partitions (1 drive) and a linux swap.

I will check my home computer tonight and try to get the bottom of this.

EDIT: Nevermind; runtt21 gave me the solution in his Macpup thread. One needs to have the ISO outside of the main home drive for the mounting to work.
I copied and ISO file to a USB stick and it mounted fine. Guess I have to make another post in the Lucid 5.2.8 thread.

Yes. /mnt/home is already mounted. Maybe...if you just make a subfolder to the /mnt/home like /mnt/home/isos it could work.....

Actually I have them in a folder named /mnt/home/ISO Files and they wouldn't mount. So, I guess that the ISO files need to be in a partition outside of the home drive.

Battery status tray applet

The battery status tray applet wasn't showing until I found:

on Barry's blog:

works great in 5.X.7 uniprocessor!

MoebusNet. Yes, I know that powerapplet_tray has been fixed.
With Vattery-Ibam-acpitool combo I have, there is one problem. If the battery present state misleads the the script to think that vattery-ibam works, it tries to use it and then it seqfaults.

Vattery-acpitool works though, but it is not used due to misassumption.

So...in console: # cat /proc/acpi/battery/*/state

And I will know what your comp tells. I would like to fix the script and that statement might help if you or any other with non working Vattery would post their statements.

Please see this post: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 696#569696

So if I rename the folder to isos ..it will work after all. :)
