Sub_title: Updating from Wary 104 to 5.0		  
Shep,
I simply mounted the Wary 5.0 iso and copied the initrd.gz, vmlinuz and wary_500.sfs to my wary104 directory (renamed the corresponding old files so they wouldn't run), and ran it. It automatically updated beautifully from my old warysave.3fs file.

Sub_title: no driver for ES1978 or ES1968 (Maestro)		  
Hello,

this Puppylinux Version cannot find my Soundcard (ES1978 or ES1968 / Maestro).

With Lupu 5.1.7 the same, but when I run alsaconf in a console from tty2 it finds it.

Please help me with what to do, as I cannot run alsaconf in a shell anymore.

Thank you!

I have the same wireless card and don't have problems; not likely
to be a kernel issue.

Try a 098 or earlier wary; the extended pcmcia and usb module
loading may have something to do with it; a wild guess.

Sometimes it may switch interfaces if more than one install is on
the drive. A reboot and second attempt may work.


I have no problems in 431 and I have rebooted and tried many times.
I can connect with no security in Wary. What can I do to fix the problem if it is the pcmia loading or usb module?

This is a frugal install so I will try moving the install to a separate partition .

Thanks

Frank Cox, did you follow the advise of rcrsn51 and enter the pass-frase preceded by sConfused
What network device do you get for the pcmcia card and which for the USB device?

Yes I tried putting an s before the passphrase. Not sure what you mean by the network devices.
The only thing I find to do with the wireless is :

Vendor: 8086 Device: 4220 Kernel Module: ipw2200

Beem apparently mistook my usb-pcmcia comment as a reference
to your wifi device.

Please be precise then when you report having done an advise.
Is it eth1 for both your hardware devices?

I added some pets that I made in Wary 5.0 too.
It's working pretty well so far Smile

Edit: This newer kernel is working well on my newer hp desktop too, retrovol is working now, with the older kernel I had sound but retrovol didn't work.

I thought it was impossible to have an eth1 unless an eth0 existed but I am not an expert on this subject.

There is an eth1 that is the wireless and an eth0 that is the Ethernet connection to the same Linksys router that provides the wireless signal. The incoming signal is cable. I

The interface to the ipw2200 minicard can be either eth0 or eth1; it
will say wireless in either case.
An external card (pcmcia or usb) would usually say wlan.

Beem still doesn't understand that you have 2 laptops that both
use the same type internal wireless card.

Adobe Flash -- perhaps the older version 9 player would work?

Re ffmpeg on gecko: mmx was introduced after 486 - the vortexDx is a 586 without mmx or 3dnow (the newer vortexMx does have mmx though) - so it may benefit from -march=i586 -mtune=i586

Re flash9: I wrote a little sed script for flash 9 so that web sites will work that think that they need flash-10.x (but really don't)
Code:
#!/bin/sh
FLASHLOC=/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
NEWVER="10.1 r"
VER=`strings $FLASHLOC | grep -e "^Shockwave Flash [.\d+]*" | sed -e "s/Shockwave Flash //g"`
while [ "${#NEWVER}" -lt "${#VER}" ]
do
NEWVER=${NEWVER}9
done
sed -i "s/$VER/$NEWVER/g" $FLASHLOC

technosaurus,
Thanks for the tips on compilation. I am trying to compile mplayer
now and such advice is welcome.

The flash plugin (a version 10.1r102) which I put in place of the
shipped one seems to work fine (at least it still has not crashed on me).

Lol!

That is what I thought .
I was really starting to wonder what I was being asked. It made no sense to me as I have no USB or PCMIA cards .

In case there is still confusion I have a Gateway M275 Tablet PC with an internal wireless minicard , an intel 200bg, that I have not been able to get to work with Wary 500 except by disabling security which is of course unacceptable. It works fine with the standard vanilla puppy 431 .

The Fujitsu t4010 TabletPC running the same card belongs to my cousin. It would not work with the standard vanilla 431 that worked on my Gateway with wep security enabled.
When it was suggested to use the special Puppy 431 with the retro kernel it worked fine on the Fujitsu .
