Will report my experience .

Peebee. i810 xorg driver has not been removed. But it is moved to some other location. Barry has posted about this in one of his woof blog posts. When the driver is needed, it is available by using xorgwizard. The automated detection of the need seems lacking though.
But I believe it is as Barry has organized it to behave. You need to use xorgwizard and probe or choose and select the i810 driver. Then the driver will be copied to the right folder back and it is available when booting to the X.

Hi pemasu

On further investigation it seems that the screen that fails to display is the choice of screen resolution which appears after "Probe" is chosen - although the screen is hidden pressing "Enter" selects the default resolution and then the desktop appears....

Cheers

Hi pemasu !

This is what i did.
Burnt iso to DVD . started Dpupexprimo 5X10.3 into JWM desktop as it automatically does.
Used Universal Usbinstaller to install to Usb stick.Shutdown ,created savefile saved JWM session on Usb, Shutdown ,rebooted onto Usb.

Login into the last saved JWM session . Wanted to change to E 17...did not work.Went back to Jwm desktop (by typing in " xwin jwm " ). worked.
Tried to change desktop with Windowmanager .Could not get access to WMswitcher.

Wlan was found .But could not find wireless networks .
So far... did not further investigate .

There's no need for 'Search with pfind'
when you have a folder selected.
'Search inside' is what I use.

Does flSynclient have to be installed??

[don570]

There are newer versions of apps available.

Talking clock is version 131

Bacon Recorder is 235

You accidently put Zigbert's 0.2 of pclock inside,
rather than the modified version 0.3.5

You didn't install my progam folder_convert properly.
You put in an extra /folder_convert in the path
That's why it does nothing when menu item is selected.

I recently bought an IBM Thinkcenter computer M52
with built in intel graphics

This version of Squeeze works beautifully with it.

don570. Thank you of the feedback. I will check the packages and updates. I will also fix your posted folder problem. I swapped back to the older dpup stuff and manually went through pet packages and I fixed the distro pet specs when I tried to track latest packages.. There seems to be some swapping happened.

[pemasu]

Rox right click Search with Pfind. I thought it was removed. We talked about it earlier and I should have removed it but....

EDIT. Found it. It was the pfind pet which installs it. It is Zigberts rox right click addition. So I will need to use pinstall.sh row to make sure it will be deleted when I build with woof..

[pemasu]

don570. The synaptics driver is not installed, that it means as it tells. Do you use synaptics or some other touchpad driver, like elantech ?
Flsynclient does not work if synaptics driver is not loaded. Also synclient will fail if you try to use it from commandline. Hmm.....

[pemasu]

I have compiled the latest fotoxx 11.12.2. Seems to work. It will be in my soon uploaded 5.X.10.4 which is small fix and update release.

[pemasu]

Meaningless double post. Lol. Merry Christmas.

[don570]

To pemasu:

I suggest that you switch from pclock to puppy clock 0.3.6

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 537#591537

I just made a change to the font size formula so that the
clock time will show properly in the window.

[pemasu]

don570. Got it. Will test.
I found also the reason to the sometimes appearing dbus error when launching Firefox or Seamonkey.
Some mysterious circumstance makes the /etc/dbus-1/session.d directory to vanish. Recreating it, makes dbus happy. dbus-launch shows information it creates instead of that dbus error. And Firefox/Seamonkey is happy.
The main reason to the vanishing directory is absolutely unclear to me, lol.

[pemasu]

Argh. I have now next version ready, which is probably the last one before I create main Dpup Exprimo with 2.6.39.4 kernel.
But...I forgot to change specs in woof2 for distro name and version. So the version is again Dpup Exprimo 5.X.10.3. Damn it. Lol. I am frustrated now.

I will probably rebuild this version with right version number. But not immediately. I will be too busy still at work. Normally I would have created fixed build, but....I just dont have time atm for it.
Anyway....I want to upload this version which replaces the existing version in smokey01.com repo.

The main updates:
Firefox 9.0.1 with library fix in /etc/profile file.
Radky`s Pup Application updates.PupApps, PupControl,PupSysinfo. They are really nice, useful and functional. Test them. Thank you Radky and thank you that you inform me of your new versions.
New 2Pfx which is xcompmgr/kcompmgr GUI for transparency in jwm. Play with it. Makes transparency options easy with nice GUI. Thank you Argolance.
Puppy speaking clock ( Say Time ) updated.
Pmusic 2.3.0 with streamripper support. Even greater music player-manager-stripper,net radio, etc...Puppy Music Application. Thank you Zigbert.
Don570`s Puppy Clock fixed for wide screens with full window for big numbers.
Some fixes for rox right clicks.
Fotoxx updated to the latest and has possibly support for raw image data. Havent tested.
Firewallstate works now and added, not sure if it was in previous version preinstalled, now it is.
You2pup with movgrap is back. Movgrap will be useful with Pmusic in the future also. Pmusic already has hidden property to play youtube songs.
Wallpapers have some new additions, I again hacked the background_reshape script so that it should not cut the the wallpaper.
Some minor fixes I dont remember anymore....

So...to increase confusion. Reuploaded Dpup Exprimo 5.X.10.3 (I am truly sorry for the version number bug)

A nice gift for the New Year...Thanks pemasu!

I burned the iso to a DVD+R
I haven't made a save file yet, used SFS-Load on-the-fly to get this
far.

I found also the reason to the sometimes appearing dbus error when launching Firefox or Seamonkey.
Some mysterious circumstance makes the /etc/dbus-1/session.d directory to vanish.

I found a "/etc/dbus-1/.wh.session.d" file in the savefile. Removed it, rebooted, dbus service now starts, and the problem is gone.

I am using a frugal install on an NTFS partition, with an ext3 savefile.
