Midnight Sun Pup 002 with 2.6.35.7 and 003 with 2.6.38.4
I used Billtoo's technique here using the latest Nividia driver for my card, NVIDIA-Linux-x86.270.41.19, which worked fine with Polar Pup, Ice Puppy, and Snow Puppy. Incidentally, prior to installing the NVIDIA driver, glxgears did run, but gave an error message. I'll try to duplicate the message and post it here.pemasu wrote:Jim1911. Did you compile the Nvidia proprietary package yourself or do you use some already made Nvidia pet ?
And have you made xorg.conf file with composite enabled ? Maybe playing with that xcompmgr and gcompmgr. Disabling that composite row have been suggested also in my searches.
Your faced problem seems to find certain older Nvidia cards when I searched the net.
Have you downloaded the latest Nvidia package for your card and compiled it yourself ?
Or it can be that this kernel just dont like your new comp.
With pfix=ram, Glxgear ran without an error message. When a save file was created and the following items were loaded by bootmanager:
devx_lupu_001.sfs
kernel_src-2.6.35.7-patched-lupe5.sfs (Is this the correct kernel?)
This error message was then generated (No NVIDIA driver had been loaded):
sh-4.1# glxgears
2590 frames in 5.0 seconds
2690 frames in 5.0 seconds
XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"
after 13851 requests (8333 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
Executing glxgears again resulted in no error message.

Yes, I just tested and the Firefox 5.0 pet seems to work fine--but of course you already have FF 5 built in. Also the current Chromium 14 pet also works. Good deal. I was afraid there was something I was missing (ha-ha, something 'else" I was missing).
Beautiful Pup, btw. Thanks.
Oh, and I also fixed the Chromium 14 sfs for anyone who prefers that.

Playdayz, good to hear browsers are working. Yep, I dowloaded the official FF 5 also. I have used it whole day without a glitch. Plays flash, browsing, downloading allright, and it has been stable whole day.
Thanks also about the lookout. I have changed quite a lot since latest Snow Puppy, so that it feels slightly different.
At least as much as you can do with JWM and Icewm. Those will be my chosen wm's still.

got the lattest midnight pup(001 labled) and devx for frugal hdd install on ext4. Like the new look and feel. Wifi connected to internet with same old built in wl driver. Installed Tor 1.1.19-lucid52 with Firefox/3.6.3 and tried built in FF...no issue with either. Have new usb smcwusb-n2 with ar9170usb chipset will try latter.
I have 1024x768 resolution without any issues noted.

Midnight Sun Pup-001
Frugal install to hp desktop.
I installed the devx_lupu_001.sfs and
kernel_src-2.6.35.7-patched-lupe5.sfs files.
I downloaded the NVIDIA-Linux-x86-275.09.07.run and installed it:

I had to re-download the midnightsunpup-001.iso and start over because
the first attempt booted up okay but couldn't find any network
interfaces, it's working okay this time.

pemasu I'm just having my first look at Midnight Sun, very nice.
I haven't been able to break so it's pretty solid. All the important things like the browser, wifi, graphics all work fine.
I did notice the Quit button in Partview does not work.
Puppy Help 101 seems to work well. I might have to make a special version for Midnight Sun to accommodate the additional software.
Very Impressive.

Smokey01. Thank you of your report and that you tested Midnight Sun Pup. If you have energy and time, I will be very happy your extended help manual. But that is up to you.
About that quit button. It is problem which came with my compiled gtkdialog3. It seems not work right.
I will revert it to the original in Midnight Sun Pup 002.
Meanwhile, grab /usr/sbin/gtkdialog3 from some other Puppy.
I dont post pet for it, because I will upload today next version.
It has Radkys newest updates included. PupShutdown and PupSnap has been updated.

pemasu,
I don't know if it is the same in all 'cold' puppy's.
In icepuppy dhcpcd isn't found because /usr/local/sbin is missing in the PATH.
You might check if it is OK in this summer puppy.

I checked in the fluppy 013 sfs in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit and find: This seems illogical to me that /usr/local/sbin is missing also, cause when dhcpcd is executed from a console, dhcpcd isn't found.
I don't know how Frisbee copes with that.
Code: Select all
PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R7/bin
