SUKK-1.4 - tested, goes all the way through with three builds!
Headers in with modules. arch identified from build* config not running system.

Hi Stemsee

I've made an experimental build of LxPup using your 3.19.2-pae kernel.

It works great on 2 of my test machines (my desktop & a recently acquired Asus laptop)

but on my other, older, HP550 laptop I get lots of crash reports in dmesg - but strangely the system appears to work ok despite these crashes. They appear to be related to the graphics in this laptop - I've never previously had any problems with it.....

Attached I've included a screenshot, the dmesg output and a video report (both with false .gz).

Cheers

Hi peebee

I had a look . My opengl renderer is Gallium 0.4 no probs on core i5. I googled but nothing specific comes up! Actually I have no idea! What is the brand model and spec of the machine?

peebee:

in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri

do you have both the i915 and i965 drivers?

Hi 8Geee

Yes there is - should one not be there??

i915_dri.so
i965_dri.so

The i965 (GME965) driver IIRC should be found and started in the HP550. It may be a kernal issue, or incorrect/misplaced pointer (link). The i965 chipset also incorporates ICH8x, this could also be a problem IF the kernal does not support ICH8x (x can be R or M anong others). Video in 'some' of these is X3100 based, not sure about yours.

Asking about both was to see if older hardware was supported, Crossing my fingers that SATA is NOT proprietary.

Hi 8Geee

I believe that the i915 driver has always previously been used on my HP550.

Hi stemsee

Your 3.19.2-pae kernel exhibits the "can't select from multiple savefolders when using a usb keyboard" problem that was extensively discussed on the tahrpup thread and eventually cured by 666philb by releasing an updated kernel at:

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 772#819772

gyro and mavrothal were also involved in the trials and testing that lead up to 666philb's "cure".

You have to go back quite a few pages in the thread to see the full discussion leading up to the fix - It might be better to just ask 666philb / gyro / mavrothal what needed to be done.

Cheers

I found it

Code: Select all

CONFIG_HID_LOGITECH_DJ=y

I will update all configs, for sukk-1.5

stemsee · #131 Post by **stemsee** » Thu 02 Apr 2015, 17:32

sukk-1.5

fixed logitech usb keyboard. But I cannot test it.
After trying hard to reuse patched sources for consecutive builds, I gave up. Cleaning between kernel builds, takes longer but works without further ado.

Will post kernels 3.19.3 64 pae and nopae after uploading.

Hi stemsee

Just tried your new k3.19.3-pae kernel - afraid problem is still there - suggest a pm to gyro is needed to ask what needs to be done.

yes i had to change some other configs, adding extra keyboards and usb port controllers,.... i believe the dotconfig from vividpup is ok (can't test as computer down at mo) so maybe do a diff between yours and that

peebee & stemsee,

so for my computer i believe it's the usb controllers that are needed to be built in, and others need the keyboard modules built in.

i don't know which ones specifically ... i just added ones that looked promising and it worked

the CONFIG_NLS_CODEPAGE builtins were needed by some people
and CONFIG_PATA was needed by shinobar for his harddrive

stemsee · #138 Post by **stemsee** » Fri 03 Apr 2015, 20:59

one mistake corrected. When selecting build 13 was actually building kernels 12 (64 and nopae) instead of (64 and pae). Enabled other options in config. Also added configs_extra_user where to put your own config files. Not yet implemented in menu to switch dirs for configs. Manually rename at the moment.

SINCERE APOLOGIES - CORRECTED POST

Hi Stemsee

The new kernel-3.19.4-pae-32bit seems to work AOK but still does not support my Logitech wireless usb keyboard at bootup to select from multiple savefolders.
