Concerning Sulu (Lucid with the 3.x kernel) rerwin said something interesting to me--that it would make more sense to put the energy into Precise because not only the kernel but everything else would be updated and development could be done to make it more Lucid-like if desired. So check this out: uPup Precise with 3.3.2 kernel http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=77697 |

If you plan to combine forces with pemasu and make this the next logical path, for Lucid Puppy, it would be very good idea. But, it needs to start with all the features of Lucid Puppy already there. After that, just tweaking to fix bugs. The way "uPup Precise" is now, is just another from scratch build, with a lot of stuff missing or not working. If I understood, Barry just put it together to try out something. So was not doing a complete build. _________________ I have found, in trying to help people, that the things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

Some parts might be the control center(s) and maybe boot-to-desktop if feasible. Please identify the features to preserve. One thing I am considering is to make Lucid Pup's remastering of "boot disks" a visible feature. To do that, I would like input from those using the hidden capability in lupuplus and patch-8 to make these disks, particularly about anything more that should be done for that process such as clear out some directories like browser caches. There seems to be some interest in having this be generally available:
I would prepare an update to submit for woof, as part of the lupu features to go there. Richard Edited_time_total |

PupMenu 2.0 I thought radky had announced it in this thread but I can't find it. Anyway, it's cool--fun to just play with, provides a lot of information, and will appear in the upcoming Lupu Plus. Duh, the 4th message above this one

I've had good luck installing 5.28.005 on a number of machines. However, a request for Chromium as browser on one machine got me into trouble. This caused me to try several alternate browsers. Here are some results: aurora - shows up in PPM as arora; information button leads to wikipedia page unrelated to any browser. chrome - On this one machine I can't seem to run any derivative of chromium, Google-chrome or Iron. In the case of the oldest version this is explained by an attempt to "exec chrome-linux" which does not exist. Later versions seem to fail immediately, reporting "Illegal instruction" when run from a console. Opera - PPM reports missing shared libraries, but the browser comes up. I haven't done much testing of it though. The machine giving me trouble has an ASUS A7S8X-MX motherboard with an Athlon-XP 2500+, and 2GB of RAM. I've tried the integrated SiS 741 graphics and two different nVidia AGP cards. The graphics seems to work each way. I've run memtest86+ 4.20 through a full pass, taking an hour and 15 mins, without errors. I do not have trouble on machines with the Intel Pentium 4, Atom or Celeron, or the AMD Athlon 64, Athlon II, Phenom, Phenom II. Everything except these browsers seems to work, with the exception of CPU frequency scaling (BIOS older than 2007). When I stress the processor I can get the temperature up to 58C, but this does not seem to correlate with this problem. Before I replaced the processor the previous one was running at higher temperatures. My guess is that these builds are testing for some feature present in all the 64-bit architectures, but this traps as an illegal instruction on some AMD 32 bit processors. If the problem is in the graphics I am at a loss to explain how it can run TORCS, but not these browsers. Otherwise, this looks like a great little Puppy machine for someone. Any ideas? |

I think Arora means Arora like Qt based browser Arora. The big size of the pet comes from in build Qt libs. http://code.google.com/p/arora/ |

Since my main Linux box is an Athlon XP 2400+ I can confirm. It appears that the problem exists mainly for Athlon XP and older cpu's and Intel P3's and older.Haven't noticed a problem on newer AMD or Intel P4's and newer. Luckily, the google Chrome pet ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pet-packages-lucid/Google_Chrome-18-Lucid.pet posted a few pages back does work on Athlon Xp cpu's. Not Chromium but the same family.HTH. |

The latest suggestion is that these processors were essentially the same as the Athlon MP. Could the browser code be trying to find out if this is capable of multiprocessing???? This is a "Barton" (10 th generation AMD) processor. For hard-core hardware types I offer the exact processor code: AXDA2500DKV4D |
