Testing android cellphone. Attached pic taken with it. Saariselkä kiilopää. -10 celcius. Light is bit low so the pic would have needed some levels tuning

I have now woofed new build. It has all the fixes through woof. I think there are several important fixes concerning PPM and .deb installations.

I have also incorporated rerwin`s new Frisbee work. It uses now same network framework as sns, no need for duplicate dhcpcd. Switching between sns and Frisbee seems to work quite good. So it is time to test it in build. Thank you rerwin - Peebee and thunor of your work with Frisbee.

I suppose I have tomorrow time to upload this build. I will test it somewhat first. Ffconvert - Pmusic - Pburn - Aqualung - rox right clicks have been updated also. Gtkdialog has been updated due to problems with the version I had.
Iso size about 168 Mb.

hi pemasu,

i have a dvbusb that requires the rtl283u driver, .. it works fine on lucid but the driver won't compile in precise due to the kernel version.

i've found a patched version of the driver that's supposed to work on 3+kernels, but i can't get it to compile on precise.

i was following the instructions here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1905057 (i made a symlink from /usr/src/linux to /usr/src/linux-headers..blah..blah) but the build fails

any ideas?

cheers

I am going to delay my upload 1-2 days. Barry Kauler has speed up now for Precise Puppy bug fixes. I will wait until he create woof commits of them.

well if i have to do your work for you pemasu,

it's a bit like when i had to find the 'goggles music manager' icons for you

te he

so after lots of failures and head scratching it turned out to be something really simple, there's a switch in the makefile for which 3x kernel you're using

i grabbed the patched driver from here https://github.com/ambrosa/DVB-Realtek-RTL2832U-2.2.2-10tuner-mod_kernel-3.0.0
opened the makefile and changed this

[pemasu]

666philb. Ok thanks. I have tried with ambrosa source in 3.4.2 kernel and DC tried and we failed. The source changes were too big.
I havent tried with Precise Puppy 3.2.29 kernel.

Really good news that you find the solution for this kernel. Does the driver work for you allright ?
I could include the driver to the kernel pet.

[pemasu]

Thanks 666philb. Your compiled driver for rtl2832U has been included.

Precise Puppy 5.4.X.5 is uploading now. Should be up in about 40 minutes.
I will continue tomorrow with announcement post.

Rerwin`s new integrated dhcpcd - Frisbee - sns has been included. Dhcpcd also has been updated to the latest by rerwin. Thank you.

Please give feedback about network connectivity - switching between sns and Frisbee and also is the connection stable. Thank you.

The CPU frequency scaling utility is broken, guess the gadget in the tray does the same thing though.

Hello Billtoo

I think that the CPU frequency scaling tool is one of the scripts that has been broken on Precise, from the beginning. Like Xorgwizard. But BarryK is still fixing more important stuff.

For my Athlon II X2 it is easy to work around, all I have to do is:
