Correct. It is an RV670 and an AGP card. I'll do some trials with a few other things and let you know. It behaved the same way when I had Ubuntu 10.04 on the machine. The solution there was to do an install from the live CD then on the reboot, stop at grub and add nomodeset xforcevesa to the command line. Once booted to vesa I could go in and install the ATI proprietary drivers and reboot right to an xorg desktop without a problem. I'm not sure how proprietary drivers install into Puppy but will give it a try.tazoc wrote:jasmac wrote:
From Googling that card it appears that it is an RV670, a few of which were AGP instead of PCIe. As CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS is not set in the new kernel from Quirky I don't know if there is a way to get acceleration working if the radeon driver doesn't work.

Good catch, that enabled preferences to be set. However, none of the other drivers worked either. I guess, that I can change the default player to gxine.tazoc wrote: Hmm, what happens when you close the Warning message (see taskbar in screenshot)? If you had to Ctrl+Alt+Backspace or reset the machine, try opening MPlayer from the menu and then changing the video driver before opening the wmv.
Thanks,

The procedure referenced in my signature would not work to install e-Sword, so I installed the older wine-1.1.40. After that change, e-Sword works great.

Hi, have you tried puppy pfix=ram,nocopy i915.modeset=1 or something like that? I haven't got the copy-to-ram sorted out yet. In the initscript I set the MINRAM2CPY = 2.75 x size of main file which should be more than enough, but reports indicate the copy still fails with a kernel panic sometimes. Using the new-for-LHP 5.00 pfix=nocopy should prevent the kp.abushcrafter wrote:Failed for me to. Got a "kernel panic" when booting clean (selected not to load any pup-saves).

No, I hadn't seen that, thank you. I did find an alternative that looks promising:You may not have seen that zigbert has updated Pprocess.

One other quirk.
Using LXDE - I configure it with wbar at the bottom and system bar at the top.
When I exit to command prompt (say to run alsaconf) then xwin to reshow LXDE the system bar doesn't show. I can switch to other WMs (JWM Xfce) but on switching back to LXDE still no bar. I can only get it back by rebooting.

Re: No Audio
Disregard the errors you found, they are normal. But no sound? Have you checked a couple of mixers to make sure everything is up? Also try the Multiple Sound Card wizard in Menu | Settings | Wizards. Did the sound suddenly stop or was it never working? That's odd. Jim1911 had sound problems in 4.43, not sure if he fixed it or how.Barburo wrote:Hi TazOC,

Make sure that /Startup has an lxpanel script in it. If clicking on it doesn't show the panel <4 secs, open the script with a text editor and paste the lines, one at a time in a terminal to see if there are any errors. I wonder if the --profile default is right? The panel configurations are in /root/.config/lxpanel/.Barburo wrote:One other quirk.

Don't think there is a update.

Operator error perhaps - mixer had no controls selected.
Even though the system tray volume control showed 3/4 volume and no muting I only got sound after selecting controls in mixer. (I should have tried this first).
I cannot reproduce the lxde error today - I'll keep testing 5.00A to see if it comes back.
I'm really liking this version - the new default GTK theme with the "vista-like" green progress bars, the ability to turn off automount, the icons on the LXDE desktop for the mounted drives.

Hello.
Im beginner user puppy linux.
Today I install lh-puppy in my old computer, and yet found bug.
I cant use polish kayboard - I dont have polish letter, for examle: ż,ć,ą,ę... etc.
If I click right Alt, and try make Any letter, comuter think that I use enter, and text go down.
I try change kayboard for english and again for polish, reboot computer, but It nothing to do.
PS: In normal puppy linux (5.01,5.00,4.3.1) polish kayboard work exellent!

Hmm, first time I have really struggled to get an iso working.
Video problems with i810.
I had all the symptoms as described at each point. Finally got it working and it crashed out at the save routine. !!
Option of save created a new line in a cli showing the bash prompt and wouldn't do anything else.
Needless to say it didn't create the save file.
I'll continue on with my favourite LHP4 version for now.

This looks like a truly great pup. But i have tried with both a fixed and multi-session CD burn and neither releases the CD so it can be unmounted to play movies. Tried a search for the problem, but no luck. Must be something simple i'm doing wrong. Ideas?
I'm looking forward to switching to this version. It's worth a donation, for sure. Thanks.

No Belgian keyboard
Me too, I had the kernel panic issue, but when using pfix=nocopy I could load and use Lighthouse 5.00
But there is a showstopper for me
Altho I have selected the Belgian keyboard, and altho this is correctly in xorg.conf, the keyboard stays in qwerty.
Don't see how I can change thhis.

Xorg configuration issue at first start
At first start when I have to configure X and I take the 'default' xorgwizard, I get a black screen. I have to power off and when doing so I hear two barks before the laptop powers off.
My video controller is a ATI mobility Radeon 7500
On the next trial I used the ATI entry and selected the radeon driver.
This time I get to the desktop.
Not sure if I could/should use the radeonhd one.
Once in the desktop I haven't tried to go to the X prompt, type xorgwizard and see if I have the same issue.

The desktop drive icons show correctly the file system, but don't give the size of the partition. They all show 0GB.
