Puppy 3.01 final bugs reports here
Seamonkey wont start second instance from icon
Hi, another bug ive found, if I start seamonkey, then minimise it and click on the seamonkey desktop icon, nothing happens (another seamonkey instance should startup). If I already have seamonkey running and open another instance from start>internet>seamonkey web browser then a new instance starts ok.

#v2.14 Puppy now has XDG menus.
#this script builds the menus from template files.
#Any templates can be placed into /etc/xdg/templates, and the file must be
#named to show its final destination. For example, the template for JWM:
# _root_.jwmrc
#...the '_' will be converted to a '/', so the generated JWM config file is:
# /root/.jwmrc

I'm using 3.01 final, frugal install btw
Having same problem as Leon

At X start 'ModeLine' settings from xorg.conf written by Xvidtune are ingnored. That was not the case with Puppy 2.17.1
it worked in 2.16 too

Also when I install these pups
xfce-4.2.3.2-base.pup
jwm2xfce-menu.pup
xfce4-menueditor.pup
Restart / Shutdown can't be selected, Logout works, saving session also works on Logout

the files in /usr/share/applications/*.desktop do not have the
full path to the icon file nor do they reflect the choices on the
pinboard
this is a drawback because it causes the icons not to show up.
The files could be used as desktop shortcuts otherwise.

I just found that my multisession Puppy 3.01 loaded the saved sessions even though I used the pfix=ram boot option. I tried it three times and it loaded the saved sessions every time.

Bug List plus a Release Request
I have been using Puppy for quite some time. First I would like to thank Barry K. and the Puppy Linux community for this amazing open source contribution.
I have two bug reports and a release request.
[BUGS]
1. The 3.01 remaster script does not work on my laptop with a vfat and a reiserfs partition. I get the same xdialog error as Clay did in the 3.01 beta bugs list. I tried the script you posted to him, but that failed in the same place.
I will try this on a different computer soon.
2. When playing a DVD on GXine in two different computers pressing f to go into fullscreen does not work the first time. Sometimes I would have to maximize the window and try again then minimize and so on until it would either work or freeze X windows.
[Release Request]
I would like to request that the humongous initrd release of puppy linux continue running in parallel with the normal release of puppy linux.
I am pxe booting puppy linux to run thinclients. As this is my main use of puppy linux having that release would be very helpful.
I am creating a new Linux distribution, and I would like to use Puppy Linux as the Thinclient OS. I think Netbooting is going to become very important.
Thanks again for everything.

Thought I'd mention: When editing initrd.gz, be careful that cpio doesn't dereference all the symlinks, which results in a very hefty initrd.gz file (the ~3mb tweaked version I was working with grew to ~15). I haven't investigated the issue much, to see which versions of Puppy it affects, but some versions do this. Rather than figure out why, I just grabbed the version of cpio included in the 300 unleashed core and used that. It might just be the version of cpio in Puppy 2.14, but maybe not.
So like I said, I just though I'd mention it as something to keep an eye out for when you're messing with initrd.gz.

Reply to pizzasisgood
Thanks for the fast reply, pizzasgood.
I would like to use Puppy Linux "as is" for my distribution. I can only do that if Barry continues to release the humongous initrd edition. Like he did with 2.16.1. Hopefully he will, so that I don't have to know about cpio bugs. =)

Another one with problems with pup_save.2f3 and HDD file save
I have used part of Justgregs text for speed.
Frugal, 512mb RAM, 1200 Athlon, 80Gb HDD split into 2 partitions both EXT3
I did a frugal install to one of the partitions (Pup301 directory). I modified Grub to boot the frugal installation. It boots fine. However, when you shutdown, you are ask about saving the session. I have select save to the partition. It shutdowns. After reboot, Puppy 3.01 starts and hangs for ages (appears to have crashed but is taking a long time). Sometimes this takes a while others not so long.
With a frugal and then save to HDD for pupfiles on reboot it goes through the inital select country, vers etc.
Thanks
Tony

nfs problem
Hi,
I have resolved my problem of nfs.
In fact, it missing in release 3.01 the module sunrpc.ko and module lockd.ko
Recompiling kernel and modules solve the pb.

Hi Barry,
Quoted from a solved thread :
Anyway, I couldn't get internet to work with Puppy 3.01. When I set everything as I did in 2.15 (I've even entered the DNS servers manually) and configured Roaring Penguin, RP wouldn't find any network at first (it keeps blinking red and delivers a 'Connection Timeout') - not until I interrupted the connection procedure and retried it a second or third time. Although it looked like a perfect connection that time, Seamonkey wasn't able to load any web pages. I've tried to ping my ISP's DNS servers and it worked perfectly.
This is reproducable; I've tested the internet with Puppy 2.15 to doubleckeck and it still works perfectly.
By the way - a bad habit of the Internet Connection Wizard, in my opinion, is that it will set 'Gateway' to 0.0.0.0 by default. When you don't clear it out (I personally don't use a router, just a DSL modem, so no gateway needs to be specified), the wizard will refuse to accept all other entries. So newbies may get mad about their network settings not being accepted. This changed with the version from 2.13 on, as far as I can remember - and it stays persistent up to now with 3.01... 2.12 didn't have this issue.
I must admit - as much as I like Puppy - the introduction of new networking issues with proverbially every new release gets increasingly frustrating.
I'd strongly plead for testing basic functionalities like that more thoroughly before releasing in the future....

Quoted from a solved thread :
I'm not quite sure, but I think this should work automatically by getting the DNS server addresses from the ISP - at least as yet it always worked that way....(Leon): I was informed from a long time Puppy user that since Puppy 3.00 he had to specify DNS to properly configure Roaring Penguin. Well, in contrary, I’d always done that, so didn't noticed any difference.

Hi perixx,

I noticed that my ADSL connection was very slow until I changed 'Use synchronous PPP:' to 'No' although it worked well in previous versions.

Bug in mp3 audio
Hi
When I open a mp3 file with the default audio player (is the xine) in puppy linux 3.01; I just listen the audio with problems, every second in the song is repeated five times (more or less) and sometimes the sound is mmm.... blocked.
I think the mp3 codec is wrong, how can I change this codec for another and... where find this?
So, I've configrated my audio card correctly coz I tested with a wav audio file and is ok.
Thanks for your answers
(sorry my english....)

Hi Leon,
I was using exactly the same settings as in Puppy 2.15 - even the same driver 'skge'(?) AND synchronous DSL and it doesn't work.
From the pings to my DNS servers and the modem's blinking I can tell that there's most probably a connection to the web, but it's not working properly. Although I haven't touched the firewall - does it need some basic attention to make internet work?

As I mentioned in my previous post from my experience some RP settings have to be changed to get it work from one Puppy version to another.perixx wrote:I was using exactly the same settings as in Puppy 2.15 - even the same driver 'skge'(?) AND synchronous DSL and it doesn't work.
1.) It is highly recommended to run Linux-Firewall Wizard from Puppy menu before first starting your DSL Internet connection:perixx wrote:Although I haven't touched the firewall - does it need some basic attention to make internet work?

2.) I would suggest to try this RP settings in Puppy 3.01 and report results:
>Menu >Network >Roaring Penguin PPPoE ADSL
>New Connection
>Basic
Connection Name: ? (Enter your Internet provider name.)
User Name: ? (Enter your username.)
Password: ? (Enter your password.)
>NIC and DNS
Ethernet Interface: eth0
DNS Setup: Specify
Primary DNS: ???.???.???.??? (Enter DNS specified by your Internet provider.)
Secondary DNS: ???.???.???.??? (Enter DNS specified by your Internet provider.)
>Options
Allow use by non-root users: No
Use synchronous PPP: No
Firewalling: Stand-Alone
3.) Click 'Start' button to see if both internet connection indicators in RP-PPPoe become green and Blinky internet connection icon appears in systray.
