The kernel source sfs file for 2.17 can be found here:

Put this in the same place as your pup_save file and have fun compiling drivers!

WakePup2 tune-up is finished. Assuming no one finds any bugs or has any additions they want in the custom boot options.

Dear Group,

Apologies for my previous post. The problem was a bad burn all a long. The CD-RW originally had 2.16.1 on it, 2.17alpha wouldn't work but I was able to write 2.16.1 back onto the CD and it worked. So I concluded that the CD player worked, the CD was OK but something else was wrong. Today I did a complete "slow" erase of the CD and burnt 2.17alpha to it. Puppy booted as it always has. The only hypothesis I can come up with is the 2.17 ISO is smaller so when I did a fast erase some of 2.16.1 was still there. In the past I've mainly done fast erases and the subsequent ISOs are generally larger.

Anyhow, brief test results regarding modems.

Compaq Presario Compaq C310TU with Agere modem - not detected
Sony Vaio PCG-FR720 with Conexant-Ambit modem - not detected

If anyone wants any additional information please feel free to ask.

Regards,

mmm
