(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

I just compiled and uploaded the Realtek 8188eu USB wifi driver -
http://www.smokey01.com/tempestuous/818 ... 6.33.2.pet

Known supported wifi dongles:
TP-Link TL-WN723N v3
TP-Link TL-WN725N v2

JUNE 2014
Here is the dm9601 USB-LAN driver, updated to include 8 new device ID's, which I have taken from the latest version of the driver from recent 3.x kernels.

but several of these cards require firmware as well. I'm uncertain about all the models involved, but certainly the well-known E-MU 0404 PCI card requires this firmware.

Note: the E-MU 0404 USB is a completely different animal, which uses the generic snd-usb-audio ALSA driver.

After installing this dotpet, reboot. Then run the ALSA Wizard.

Hi all, this is my first post on the forum. Looks like I have a problem configuring Creative sound card. After initial setup, Retrovol tray icon and menu entry both disappeared. I'm new to Linux but i guess it's related to this script (/root/startup):

#!/bin/sh

#exec retrovol -hide ${BGOPT} #BGOPT is exported from /usr/sbin/delayedrun.

#retrovol 0.10, -bg option no longer needed...
exec retrovol -hide

Experienced advice would be much appreciated. Cheers!

Edit: Excuse me for posting in this topic but I couldn't find much in other (ancient) threads. My PC runs Puppy Precise 5.7.1. (Kernel 3.9.11, PAE, i686), Frugal install on HDD.

Edit 2: Disabling onboard sound within BIOS solved my problem.

The driver is called xhci
I have also included the upgraded isp1760 USB driver, which is apparently USB 3.0 compatible, though very few Puppy users will ever use this driver because the relevant interface is found on embedded devices.
After installing this dotpet, reboot, and the xhci driver should automatically load for any compatible interface detected at boot up.

Got it and it worked on install of my AMD64 machine running Tahr 64 but after the first reboot it didn't work. If I modinfro it doesn't appear. *Also it seems to have installed in an older Linux versions subdirectory. dmsg reports finding the PCI card fine.

dmsg starts signaling errors after finding the hardware.
xhci_hcd 0000:01:00.0: Timeout while waiting for setup address command
xhci_hcd 0000:01:00.0: Stopped the command ring failed, maybe the host is dead

and these...
Abort command ring failed
HC died; cleaning up
Timeout while waiting for setup address command
Abort the command ring, but the xHCI is dead

Should I be trying to add this to the drivers that Puppy installs? *And what is the proper way to do that? Or is this a 32 versus 64 bit problem? Any help super most appreciated.

Compatibility, or otherwise, of the drivers posted in this forum thread can be seen from the title of the thread, but for a clearer explanation, please read the very first sentence in the very first post -

Edit: Looks like the driver is missing in that thread/post, there are no links anymore??
Edit: The rt3070sta-v2.3.0.1-k2.6.33.2.pet seems to be MIA
Can't even find it on the wayback machine! What kind of witchcraft is this???

Hello Isaac,

That was the only one I could find so far. Darn!.

I should have looked at it after I got it from archive.org, looks like it gave me the web page named as a pet

I will remove that from the post.

We need some more help here!

.

OK, with much thanks to ally the archiver!

Here is the link to the RT3370 pet, it is a pet this time lol
https://archive.org/download/Russoodles ... 6.33.2.pet

The pet is too big to attach to the page, must be why it went missing, probably due to space limits on murga.
It is a real pet this time.

Have found where ally archived Russoodle's whole site :
https://archive.org/search.php?query=su ... dle%27s%22

Hope that this one works, Isaac!

Hello perdido ,rt3370sta-v2.4.0.1-k2.6.33.2.pet does not work on my adapter .anyway thanks for your effort.

Is this a USB or internal PCI adapter?

Please provide the model name and details.

It is an usb adapter.device instance id is Usb\vid _148&pid_3070\1.0 seen on windows XP .

Device id is usb\vid_148f&pid_3070&rev_0101

Try the driver here. It matches your device ID.

rt5572sta_lupu_528-k2.6.33.2 is unworkable .
