For the most documentation see:
DebianDog - Jessie thread
Exceptions:
- Any links to files or repository containing i386 packages (or other non 64 bit packages)
- Any documentation about live-boot v2 (it's not included in this 64 bit version)
(maybe I will include later in next iso, porteus-boot and (official Debian) live-boot v3/4 works OK from what I tested)
- Any documentation about systemd (not included in this 64 bit version, although it can be installed and used, but not properly tested yet)
Other differences compared to 32 bit DebianDog:
- Different applications, some are missing and some added.

Manual frugal install with Save on exit. Apart from a couple of minor issues shown below, all appear to be working well. Nice job.
Wifi b4321 card not detected. I manually installed b43 firmware and wifi is now working.
Launchers for 'Synaptic Package Manager' and 'Setup Timezone' do not execute when clicked from the Menu>System or panel launchers. I edited scripts 'synaptic-startup' and 'timezone-setup', removing gsu or sudo, as the scripts did not run when logged in as the default root. I also edited rox, wbar and tint2 launchers accordingly.
I couldn't get Menu>System>Synaptic Package Manager to work, as I couldn't work out how to edit the 'synaptic-pkexec' script.
The change to the time zone does not appear to be displayed correctly or maintained across reboots. When the timezone-setup is run the changes to the displayed on screen does not appear to be the correct time for the selected region, ie correct current time 13:15 ( UTC - 18:15), changed timezone to reflect GMT-5 time displayed was 4:15. I did several changes to various timezones. The time displayed did not appear to be a correct representation of the actual time. Upon reboot the time displayed reverts back to being UTC (18:15).

Hi Terry H,
Thanks for testing!
What if you do in terminal:
or:
as root?
For me these commands execute well.
Are you sure you are using a fresh save file or folder?
(the cause could be you are using a save from other DebianDog)
About timezone, I must admit that I'm confused about how it works in Debian.
As dancytron says editing /etc/adjtime might help.
Here's a discussion about it:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 124#806124
And is the right time set in your BIOS?

Ok, thanks, it seems like sudo is broken somehow on your installation.Terry H wrote:root@debian:~# gsu synaptic
sudo: unable to stat /etc/sudoers: No such file or directory

My main Linux background doesn't use sudo, so I'm not to sure what is missing, /etc/sudoers exists and looks normal to me.
The reason for using sudo or gsu in some scripts or .desktop launchers is that it works both for root or regular user (if all is well, of course)
I can't explain why this is happening for you.
Can you investigate some things?
- Is there the same problem if you boot without save?
- Can you try reinstall sudo and see if this solves it:
Code: Select all
apt-get install --reinstall sudo
I reinstalled sudo, still have same issues.fredx181 wrote:Ok, thanks, it seems like sudo is broken somehow on your installation.Terry H wrote:root@debian:~# gsu synaptic

Removed 'changes' folder for clean boot, still the same.
I'll do further tests if you require, however I don't want to take up your time on this, so wait and see if others may have issues also.

Edit: This is on Dell D630 Core 2 Duo laptop. I also checked md5sum prior to initial install.
Edit 2: sudo works as expected in my tahrpup installations

Manual frugal install with Porteus boot, save on exit only in change folder. I put the /live directory from ISO in a directory /live64. How to set up menu.1st file was a little confusing. This is what I ended up with, which seems to work and not conflict with the Debian Dog Jessie 32 bit in /live folder.
Switched Desktop to Rox Pinboard.
Installed
via apt-get install. Sound and video recognized after restarting X.
Tested synaptic and Set Timezone. They worked okay for me. Not sure what Terry is seeing.
There didn't seem to be a way to restart X-windows other than exiting to console and then typing startx. Don't know if that is an oversight or intentional.
No other issues so far.

I meant to try removing the changes=...... parameter from boot commandline, then it boots without even looking for save data.Terry H wrote:- Is there the same problem if you boot without save? (Not sure what you mean)
Yes, let's wait and see, it's mysterious.I'll do further tests if you require, however I don't want to take up your time on this, so wait and see if others may have issues also.

Hi Fred.
Congratulations and sorry I can't give any testing reports but I'm sure William and others will do soon.
The sudo problem Terry H has is with all DD-Jessie and Wheezy versions:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 514#848127
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 514#848292
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 514#848360
I don't think it will be solved easy since we do not have the same hardware. Maybe testing live-boot instead porteus on the same machine is a good idea to see if the sudo problem appears again.
Comparing sudo command executed from Puppy doesn't help much. Puppy folders and files permissions are not set properly for multiuser environment.
We don't have other reports about this strange problem and I think there is no need to investigate further (unless Terry H likes to continue testing and searching for fix).

Thanks for DD64! A manual frugal install boots without problem on an older Lenovo netbook with a Via Nano U2250 processor.
Since the only issue so far is wireless, I thought I'd post this helpful link:
DebianDog wireless LAN HowTo
In my case, the needed modules were present, but there doesn't appear to be any firmware. I copied the /lib/firmware/b43 folder from Fatdog to get mine working.

Copying /lib/firmware/b43 from Fatdog might work ok, but I would recommend the official way by installing it from the Debian repository:
Code: Select all
apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
I plan to include more firmware in next iso release, btw.

New package added to DebianDog64 repository:
openbox-keybinder
Openbox keybind configuration GUI, made by Pablo Cabrera and brought by Chriswaterguy here:
http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=252719
A program to set keyboard shortcuts in Openbox.
Probably not the most intuitive program IMHO but it works well after figuring out how to use.
Install:
Or by using synaptic.
Run it from Menu> Settings

Installed a frugal live off of iso with this boot code

Only two problems so far.
1) Menu and tray, notification seized up! Cn still access menu by clicking on desktop. Happened after using synaptic to install xiphos and billard-gl
2) billard-gl installed but not working, executable not found, neither cli nor menu entry.

It being summer here I haven't been using computer much so just noticed this new DebianDog64 post. Wow, I was delighted to see it since the only omission in the great DebianDog series (hope you manage a MintPup64 one day, but never a hurry). I will indeed be trying this out Fred - plan to download the iso tomorrow and maybe install on my partner's machine since she prefers a 64bit system. Almost Christmas Toni, I hope someone buys you a 64bit machine! ;-)

Hi Stemsee,
In /etc/profile the PATH needs changed for root, instead:
It needs to be this (to include /usr/games for root):
Edit: BTW, for me billard-gl needs also installed libgl1-mesa-glx and libgl1-mesa-dri :
