backi , its based on the precise beta 2 that barry built I know that scaling didn't work on everyone stuff But it worked for me and all the gear my testers used.

This is a development version of macpup I don't except it to do everything for everyone.

This so cool, It's the first time Barry has talked about us that I can remember.

Hi All

Well using 529 left me with no audio and no wireless internet on Dell Vostro 220, Lenovo A50, Acer 5552 & Toshiba A120.

I loaded up Macpup 528 and all computers are awesome, 529 the audio playback is a struggle and I cannot record audio at all, I cannot get the wireless to work on any of my computers, 528 is working fine, BTW im using 528 not the v2 version the original.

Hope this helps as I was hoping to do a video of 529.

icyos did you do md5sum on your download? What did running alsawizard from the command line do? Did the internet set up wizard see any of your cards or routers?

kros54 , Try something for me, Download Barry's build of precise beta 2 and try localizing it. If it stays that way consistently. Go back to MP529 switch to the jwm side and see if it works there. Then report back before you try the e17 side again.

Sound works. Frugal install on .dev.sdb1. I am on wired internet right now but will try a USB wireless later (not tonight).

Installed via CD made on Antix with xfburn,

1. Download Precise puppy beta2 http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/test/precise-5.2.60/
2. Install Precise puplet (frugal)
Run Quickset, Country setting- > hu-HU, Timezone Europe-Budapest, keyboard layout hu-Hungary. set OK, save, and terminal:
(1precise_locale_after_locale)
3. New process: Macpup529.
reinstall Precise, install Macpup529
switch jwm, run first intall process. All OK.
(2macpup529 locale jwm.jpg)
Save, and exit prompt, command locale- all OK (as well as terminal)
restart e17. Run Roxterm, command locale, good results, the test sentence is wrong. (3after rebootE17.jpg)
I try very, very much. Run Wizard Wizard - Change the mouse and keyboard - Advenced Xorg keyboard configuration layouts - Configure Xkb Layout, Change... and so an...
First, immediately after the settings are good:
(4aftersettingE17.jpg)
If X restart, the localization settings are lost.

I think, that may be the fault (bug) of the e17 startup configuration.
It would be worthwhile to look at what has changed in the macpup528 because it worked well

[runtt21]

I have two things for you to try ,First set it all up But don't restart, shut it down and save. Then boot it up later and see . If that fails we will try setting up e from scratch.

Still problems with 529.

But 528 still works.
