PuppyLinux 3.01 bugs
Posted: Thu 20 Mar 2008, 18:01
I have installed PuppyLinux 3.01 on my Dell Latitude D630 and am facing the following problems:
1. GXine does not do full screen. When I select full screen, it momentarily tries to go full screen and returns back. Also it hangs during playback. I have to manually go to command prompt and kill all gxine process and start again to make it start working again. The hang is not consistent but happens quite a lot. It is not specific to any particular file type. Same file can work fine or cause a hang.
2. More serious than this is the problem with Audio. There is absolutely no audio !!! Nor does the microphone work. Do I have to install another driver? D600 & D610 used to work great but not D630
3. "pidgin" is defined to be the default chat client but is not installed. "gaim" is. So I had to put the defaultchat icon manually, edit it to point to gaim.
