Dpup Exprimo 5.X.3.1.10.3 SMP multicore optimized version
Great looking forward to it. My desktop and laptop both have Intel i7 8-core processors which really work better with the later SMP enabled kernels.pemasu wrote:First test build with core 2 and up - SMP - hyperthreading kernel 3.1.10 now in use. I havent done any 3.1.10 needed fixes yet. b43 firmware package needs to be updated and I will go through posts of Slacko with 3.1.10 kernel before I upload this version. But it seems to work ok for me.
Thanks,
Jim
My first (uploaded) test version of Dpup Exprimo 5.X.13.SMP has been uploaded.
Going to go to the bed now.
Kernel 3.1.10 SMP - hyperthreading - core 2 and up optimization. Non PAE.
It has my latest Mplayer2 compile from fresh svn. I did try to make it as compatible as I knew. Stu90 posted that it passed his used different video formats. It should also support usual audio formats. Gnome-mplayer uses it now.
It has all the stuff from 5.X.13 build otherwise, except kernel and vattery-acpitool. Kernel headers in devx sfs of course changed also. I will upload kernel sources sfs tomorrow after work.
Browser still 9.01, but I did update it to 10 and it seems to work with latest flash. More feedback needed before I upgrade it to the build.
For record...I do use aufs still with 3.X kernels.

This Realtek is one of the most common network cards, I knew something was up pretty quick when I couldn't connect.pemasu wrote:Hmm....it seems I really have missed whole section of net drivers. Well...that means new compile surely.
Just for informational purposes, the same directory in Micko's build of k-3.1.10 has 135 items. Don't rush yourself, just thought you'd want to know.
Yeah..things happen. I tried to go through carefully network section...but it seem I have missed something really fundamental. Well...the kernel is sane...I just need to enable the whole missed sections. I believe reason is that that some sections were under different group...so the ./config I used as template didnt take them in and I missed to tick whole section of drivers.
It has happened before.
But that`s the testing for....
Thanks James C. Now I know what I will do this evening, lol....

Kernel-3.1.10 now recompiled. I had somehow forgotten to tick whole 10/100 Mb network drivers section. Small tick...big consequences...lol. Now all those (big whole bunch) has been included.
Otherwise the announcement is same.

pemasu,
Just an update on my question on jre. I found the pet over at smokey and installed it. Works like a charm.
My brain was a little fried earlier when I asked about using the sfs from Fadog. I've been going back and forth between 4 puppies on two machines and got stuff momentarily turned around.
Again, great job on Exprimo. starting to learn my way around it.

pemasu, just having a play with http://www.smokey01.com/pemasu/DpupSque ... mo5X13SMP/ and it looks good so far. It set the correct resolution of my monitor at 1280x1024. Not many distro's can do this although the later kernels seem to be able to.
At 128M it's quite a bit smaller than previous at 146M.
The help file hasn't been updated.
Cheers
