Can't use xorg
Can't use xorg
XORG won't run and I assume I have some kind of driver problem. Nothing I have researched so far on the forums has helped me. I'm using MediaPup for the live Wine. Whenever I try to run wow.exe it gives me a no suitable display driver message. I know this is because my card is'nt being picked up on XVESA. This Puplet uses 4.1.2 and My card is an Nvidia GeForce FX 5200.
Please help,
Pharis

the pet should offer to modify xorg.conf to nvidia.
If that fails, you need to attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log.
To get a copy of it, type (before restarting X with a different driver like vesa or nv):
cp -ax /var/log/Xorg.0.log /root/
gzip /root/Xorg.0.log
then attach here /root/Xorg.0.log.gz

It occurred to me that you wanted me to post the log file here as an attachment.
Man I'm dumb sometimes.
Regardless of my inferior intellect I am now attaching the file.
Thanks,
Pharis

ok, you use the retro kernel, so the pet does not work.
this might work:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=22272
But it also might not work, as though the kernel has the same versionnumber, it was compiled differently.
If it fails, I would suggest to use the standard Puppy with the pet you downloaded first.

try a puplet with everything inluded, like newyearspup midi rc2:

It still is a bit experimental, but maybe you have luck and it works on your computer.

for the standard Puppy with kernel 2.6.25.16(not retro), try the first pet:
http://www.puppylinux.ca/tpp/NOP/NVIDIA ... .25.16.pet
If that fails, it also might help to see the Xorg.0.log.
In case it works, wine might be added as pet package, then you could remaster Puppy.

I rebooted and.... no dice.
I will attach the new Xorg.0.log to help you.

uh oh
Mark, good news and bad news. Good news is that I got Wine to work on my standard puppy. The bad new is for some reason I have lost my internet connection. The wizard no longer detects my hardware. I was hoping your expertise goes as far as to help me with both problems. (the Graphics driver and the internet connection)
Once again thanks for all the help,
Pharis
