That could work. I'll try it. Also maybe making you enter the passkey twice would reduce errors.01micko wrote: What about just a warning in the wep/wpa screen that if you don't connect in so many seconds that the key you enterred may be incorrect?

Here are the desktop file contents of qcad and fotoxx as they do not appear in the menu. Thanks! - Outtaspamjemimah wrote:outtaspam, can you paste the .desktop file for qcad? I'll take a look and see if I can figure it out.

I have a new battery patch for Pwidgets. If you believe that the one I posted earlier was causing problems this should fix it. Don't worry that it say's "old".. , I just made it The syntax was incorrect in the first patch, it is corrected now.
This will overwrite the battery config in Pwidgets, no need to uninstall previous version.
Cheers

Thanks jemimah!
This puplet suits me because I have a eee, I have been helping ziggy with pwidgets since the start and I like tint2
Only thing I got to do now is figure out that freeze on the 701SD when you hit Fn-F2 to disable wireless, we'll get there

The new version will have a work around for the wireless on the 701sd. If I can find one cheap, I may just buy it and see if I can solve the issue properly. No one mentioned this problem with the old kernel, and no one's really complaining about it on the internet, so that makes me think I'm missing something.

BoxPuppeee 2 has been posted. Download the sfs at http://drop.io/puppeee.
hi jemimah,
Ok, I've got myself boxpuppeee 2 and all is well so far. I have been a little out of the loop with the eee testing so a question.. before I crash my machine. .
What is the status of the Fn-F2 bug (wireless hotkey) on the 701SD? No, don't answer, curiosity got the better of me!
Other hotkeys seem fine. Perhaps a conditional test for the 701SD could at least stop the crash, perhaps giving an error message til we manage to resolve this bug.
Cheers

A nasty bug. I saved the session as you do, no prob, all saved but on a reboot it didn't load. I see the sfs is named eee-431.sfs but the save is named pupsave.2fs. I renamed to eeesave.2fs and it loads, so I gather you may have overlooked that detail.

it works
Now posting from boxpuppeee 2.01 on 1005HE using wireless connection (ra2680).
Apparently the wireless toggle panic for the 701SD exists on Ubuntu now too.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... bug/494287
Guess I'm not missing something obvious after all.
I guess I'll just add a work around and hope it gets fixed in the next kernel.

Hi jemimah
it returnsin boxpuppeee, I just checked. Perhaps you could find it useful for the Fn-F2 bug and perhaps splash an error message.
That is the code I used for the condition of a 701SD in eee-control I worked on with tempestuous.

Ok,
added that to the line but no cigar, still crashes, worth a try though

First off let me say THANK YOU! This is my favorite distro for the eee 900. Only one small problem,
My university uses wpa2 enterprise encryption for our wireless network. Using puppeee 4.2 I made a wpa_supplicant script and was able to connect without a problem for the past couple months.
When I tried running the same script(other than changing ath0 to wlan0) in boxpuppeee I couldn't connect. When I compared the log from puppeee 4.2 with boxpuppeee I found an error:
After searching around I found bugs that suggest wpa_supplicant is conflicting with the mac80211
http://lists.shmoo.com/pipermail/hostap ... 17954.html
I tried changing ap_scan=2 to 1 but it did not make a difference. I also found another report that it may be a kernel issue http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions ... ed-613144/
Has anyone else experienced this? If I can get this working I'm going to upgrade from 4.2 so any help would be appreciated.
