Mixer on the sound card has a HDMI always using HDMI default sound card, cause the system to make no noise, have no way to mixer by default is to use the HDMI sound card? So you need not modify

Not in tahr atm, but it uses the newer cylindrical svg icon right? Or is it the old one with the 'donuts'? Take a look in BK's src repo
Yes the 2.5 you uploaded uses the newer cylindrical svg icons, so I'm using it, thanks.
I could see nothing later than 2.4 in BK's repo.

Savefolder without 'mount -o bind'

If anyone wishes to try using a newer implementation of the 'savefolder' facility, that uses symbolic links instead of 'mount -o bind', in TahrPup 5.8.4, download
http://www.fishprogs.info/puppy/tahr/initrd.gz and
http://www.fishprogs.info/puppy/tahr/yd ... _5.8.4.sfs.
Move them into a directory containing a frugal install of TahrPup 5.8.4 and you're ready to go.

Hi,
I'm on your 5.8.4 no pae puppy : thanks a lot for your work.
It's a Pentium M 1600 Mhz and everything seems to work. But my usb webcam, logitech c170, that works in skype does not work with guvcview ! This webcam works in other puppies with guvcview different versions. The window GUVCVideo is completely black.
Thanks,
Philippe

Hi,
Thank you very much for developing this awesome distro!
I only have one remark: I cannot get my audio to work in either 5.8.3 or 5.8.4, nor in Slacko 5.4 Opera. My sound-chip is a ALC892 (Intel HDA/Azalia) on a Asrock E350M1 board. When I play audio, I don't hear anything on my 3.5mm headphones or HiFi-system. Changing the output mode in the ALSA mixer doesn't matter (S/PDIF,HDMI and analog).
What also seems a little weird is that I cannot change anything, I can only put a tick in box for the digital output (even when I have "Analog" selected).
Now Puppy does not recognize any sound card.
I have already tried the realtek drivers you posted without result.
Do you know what might be causing the problem?

Comparison to Precise 5.7.1

Hi all
After a few days of testing my conclusion is that TahrPup 5.8.4 is not as trouble-free as precise 5.7.1..
It's different when Barry does it. Nothing is salty as salt itself.

Your conclusion would be more beneficial, if you included why you believe it is not as trouble-free as precise5.7.1.
This may assist the developer to improve its sensation of saltiness.

Hello @Linux28.
When you initially booted your distro, did you, perhaps, ignore the FirstRUN screen designed to minimize this problem? Did you answer all questions appropriately?
Hope this is helpful

Hello, if there is no "restart graphical server" is all normal, but just click "restart graphical server", then the keyboard can not be used, menu configuration does not work

But there's just one thing, the latest there says 2.5 and I think the TahrPup one says 2.7.
Are they really the same?

@linux28, Barry, and to all
The precise puppy, both Pemasu's and Barry's, have the file '/etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules', but this file is meaningless. You can remove it.
Instead, you need to create new gtk.immodules at '/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/gtk.immodules'. Run on a viertual terminal.
Code:
# gtk-query-immodules-2.0 > /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/gtk.immodules
EDIT: precise puppy beta2 (5.2.60) has better fix. You need nothing to do with precise puppy beta2.
Code:
# gtk-query-immodules-2.0 > /etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules
# ln -s /etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/gtk.immodules
The SCIM in lang_pack_ja worked on Pemasu's precise and on Barry's alpha-3 by the treatment above.
But on the beta-1, SCIM launches and can input KANA letters but fails to convert int KANJI letters. Pressing the space-bar to swithing the mode but does not work.
We are wondering what is the difference between precise alpha-3 and the beta-1. Rolling Eyes
Reverted all the contents under /usr/lib/gconv and got no difference.

Yes, the problem is only with guvcview !
And, it's an other question, i don't understand why the computer is faster with tahrpup 5.8.3 rc1 than with 5.8.4 : with 5.8.4 the harddisk is always run (frugal install)!

Tahr584 frugal install with savefile on fat32
With pfix=ram all works ok.
With pae version and a savefile audio stops working.
Sometimes keyboard and mouse cursor stop working.
If I use pfix=fsck then it seems to work ok.
Havent found these problems with the non pae version.
After using either version with a savefile and rebooting Windows7 always wants to scan the partition as it thinks something isnt right.
Precise and Slacko work ok.

Hi 666philb,
Tons of thanks for this !
have got a try on a pentium4 featured PC with 82845G-Brookdale video chip ... and got X displayed OK after the first restart X server without "black screen"
Any possibility to get tahr-5.8.4 coming with gnumeric-1.10.17 instead of 1.10.16?
Cheers, Charlie

Hi @Philh

I think that Win7 keeps a hash table and when he boots he uses that in an effort to insure that at desktop turnover, you have a set of filesystems Win7 thinks is clean. I seem to remember something that covers what you are witnessing on Win7 boot.
Check you FAT partition (drive letter) on Win desktop to see if your Linux files remain at Win7 desktop time. I believe they do.
Hope this help.
