Weird. Try one of these methods:

Congrats on releasing Puppeee.

I've been running Fluppy 003 on my desktop for a while now with no real problems,just one small aggravation.I have a wired ethernet connection and on every boot I get an Xdialog message about not detecting my wireless card.I don't use a wireless card so I'd like to get rid of the message.

Thanks in advance.

Maybe remove pwireless2 script from autostart folder?

Sometimes the most obvious solution is the best.

Totally solved it, thanks.

I'm working on the Fluppy kernel right now. Any driver requests?

I'm going to try the proprietary wl and RTL8192E. Anything else I should build?

Don't know if I'm up to date on this.
Does Fluppy have the bcm4312 fix; the driver put together by JRB
and Tempestuous for Lenovo s10 and others with that Broadcom
card?

That's one of the things I'm working on now.

Not related to wireless:

Fluppy works fine with Xvesa on my 6 yr. old Dell 700m notebook, Intel 855gm graphics.
I can get it to start and use Xorg by using the "i915 modeset=1" fix
that Puppy 5.1 uses for the Intel graphics.
In order to reboot or power off I have to push the power button twice,
then type reboot or poweroff.
If I try exit to x or restart x I usually get black screen freeze and have
to do a hard shutdown.

Fluppy 004 has been posted. Fluppy is now in sync with Puppeee 1.0.

Firmware loading should now work correctly (I hope)
Replaced bcm43 with wl and modified ssb module
Added RTL8192se driver

I changed the icons again so if you upgrade your save file and you get no icons on the desktop, just run the Icon Switcher to fix it.

The md5sum for the iso doesn't match;
I'll give it a quick burn to cdrw and see if it makes a difference.

edit;
The download was just 134mb; will try again.

On my first try the download stopped at 94 mb...... got it all on the second try though. the md5 was correct too.

rjbrewer · #269 Post by **rjbrewer** » Wed 18 Aug 2010, 07:15

Yes, it worked fine on my 2nd try also, including md5.

Oops;
Tried to do an upgrade of my 003 full install with 004 and it didn't
work.
Didn't have anything important there; but is an 003 iso or zip still
available?

The 004 live cd could not be removed once booted up.

good luck with this jemimah

Well worth testing

It also connected to Ethernet without any fuss - is that right?
Just did it . . .

Took me about 10 minutes to run into problems

Basically I ran the gardening game and the music is still going
even after an x restart

Well OK I need the GL driver - where is that?

Lucid has just spoiled me with Quickpet . . .

The GL driver is included - if the gardening game played, the driver works. Depending on your card you may need additional proprietary drivers for better speed. These drivers haven't been built yet.

The sound problem is not related to the GL driver but rather to something called PortAudio.

Old files are still available http://puppeee.com/files. I'm not certain downgrading will fix your installation though.

Installed 003 on usb flash (had to borrow the boot folder from
004 cd).

The "backwards" upgrade did allow 003 to boot again but it was
too modified by 004 to be usable. Missing rox pinboard, multiple
taskbar icons.

Not being able to remove the live 004 cd once booted is the
only thing that concerns me. Tried it on 2 laptops, 500 and 1gb
ram.

edit;

The icon selection is fabulous!
