hi,
first of all thanks for the hard work!!
I've downloded puppy tahr 6.0 CE PAE and I cannot connect to the internet. I use a netbook with atheros wired and wireless board. When I try to find a module manually I can find none. My question is: is the atl1c module and ath9k supported by puppy tahr or not?
Thanks for your reply.

mplayer
I get this when trying command line mplayer:
When I go to /usr/local/apps/mplayer and try and run it opens VLC. No mplayer in tahr?
Code: Select all
# mplayer 01-Track1.flac
bash: mplayer: command not found

Re ndiswrapper:
In Tahrpup 6.0-nonpae, I ran "modprobe ndiswrapper" and got a "not found" error. So I ran "depmod -a" and "modprobe ndiswrapper". That found the module but returned a "could not insert" error.
That suggests a problem with the kernel version. I tried to compile ndiswrapper 159 from source, but it failed with numerous problems.

I checked this in a machine with a PCI ath9k card and it worked fine using PWF as the connection manager.ariel wrote:is the atl1c module and ath9k supported by puppy tahr or not?
If you have done a frugal install, remember to include the zdrv_tahr_6.0.sfs file.

Manufacturer=NETGEAR WNA
Product=WNA1100
Driver=ath9k_htc
ath9k was there and working for me with no problems.
Network Wizard had my wireless detected and all I had to do was normal required setup.
Does Network Wizard see your hardware?
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

Ndiswrapper update:
I got new sources from Ubuntu. This compiled and works in non-pae. I don't know if it also works in pae.

thank rcrsn51
you beat me to it.
it seems PAE and noPAE need there own ndiswrapper, i thought as the kernel was the same version it wouldn't matter but it does... which means the one included in tahrpup only works with PAE, and then only after 'depmod -a'
ideally it should have been in the zdrv

Ok guys I have solved my problem with the internet connection.
I have a frugal install and I copied
vmlinuz
initrd.gz
zdrv_tahr_6.0.sfs
in the booting usb stick. In these conditions I didn't get loaded the zdrv file and my internet connection didn't work. Then I've copied these same files in the hard drive partition and everything works fine
By the way atl1c for my wired connection seems to have not been implemented in puppy tahr because I can only connect with ath9k wireless module. please correct me if I'm wrong.

And it installs manually. Run: modprobe atl1c
Check for error messages. Run: dmesg

thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I've followed your instructions but I can't see my wired board recognized.
I attach a file with the dmesg output.

Re: transparent conky?
Thank you, looks like the issue was the wallpaper itself, it was a jpg which I converted to png and transparency works now.666philb wrote:hi tubeguy,tubeguy wrote:I don't know if this is a tahr bug or just my inexperience with conky, trying to get Linux_Australis to be tranparent, here is my conkyrc:

@ariel: You can see the error messages at the end of your dmesg output. These seem to be occurring with some old drivers in some new kernels.
There is a lot of confusing information about this error on the web, but here is something to try:
1. Go to the folder /etc/modprobe.d
2. Create a file named atl1c.conf. Add the line
3. Reboot
4. Type: ifconfig -a eth0. Do you get an eth0 interface?
5. Type: ifconfig eth0 up. Do you get an error?
6. Type: dhcpcd eth0. Do you get an IP address?

I've followed the instructions but stopped at point 4
have you any other suggestion?
anyway, thanks for your help

No sound card found
Tahr pup 6.0 won't find the audio card on my '07 Toshiba Tecra M5. It won't even recognize my keyboard when running from a live cd on my Asus M5A97 mobo. Tahr 5.8.3 had no problems at all.
