Hello, pemasu.

I couldn't have said it better, so I'll simply subscribe to what jim is saying.
Get well, congratulations to your daughter for her diploma, keep your boss happy...

I wish you the particular kind of resilience you Finns are capable of. (My accountant is a Finnish lady, she told me the word once, but I can't remember it. There no straignt translation in French or in English, the meaning is broader than "resilience".)

Take care.

Well said, Jim.

Pemasu,
Get well and come back when you're ready. I think Barry's offer will still stand if you are willing to take on Upup Precise as an official pup, after your recovery. I can't read his mind, but that's what I would do if I was in his position. But whether your pups are official or not, you've done great work with them, so many thanks for that. :wink:

Hi Pemasu,

Hope the operation won't be as heavy - as promised ... ?

Was always impressed by your productivity - thought you were a Nokia engineer on leave, but no ..

Hopefuly it won't be long before you can settle again in your summerhouse !


Hope the severe times will be over soon.

This will be probably a last....for awhile.....

Upup Precise-5.3.3.3 has been uploaded.


It consists of
- missing icons fixes
- gsettings schemas installation simple hack to installpkg.sh
- zoneinfo time zone data reverted to Puppy original.
- compressed with `comp -xz -Xbcj x86` ie xz compression. Makes the iso smaller...but I dont think that using delta file would be reasonable with changed compression...havent tested.
- updated Precise Pangolin databases
- Python-2.7 in devx sfs...there isnt Python-2.6 in database anymore
- updated broadcom wl - b43 - b43legacy detection
- ext4 savefile choice based on Barry Kaulers latest commit
- pet_packages-upup repo added to the PPM...quite empty....but if people compile new packages with Upup Precise...I will upload them...maybe I will also...if I have need for new apps...or versions...I will...

installed 5333 frugal to ext4 hdd pfix=ram on dual p6100 hp laptop. broadcom driver auto detected by frisbee and wifi connection made on wan0-was eth1 on 5332.

flash auto downloaded. display easily changed by first run wizard. sm used this time instead of ff and it is just as quick. the whole system is very responsive. glxgears remain very quick and most impressive to date on this intel graphics.

thanks pemasu for the hard work.

---
the localization first run wizard worked great.

all survived a reboot. will keep testing.

Fresh manual frugal install on the Athlon XP box. Once again had to manually setup the internet connection. First reboot the connection was not persistent.Otherwise looking good...... :)

Remember Netscape Navigator?
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 395#606395

Connection is persistent,at least through a couple of reboots, on this frugal install........not so on the full install though.

Also did a test full install of 5.3.3.3 on the old P3 test box. No mouse problems at all. :)
Major problems getting and keeping an internet connection though.Frisbee requires manual setup acquiring the connection and is not persistent.Now trying the regular Network Wizard......rebooting now to check if persistent.Answer is no. :(

Hi zekebaby

Is there any reason why you do not use Frisbee? Precise sort of comes with Frisbee "pre-selected" - you just right click on the wifi aerial in the tray to connect. Could you try it?

What mode are you running Precise? If frugal, have you created a savefile and rebooted a couple of times?

Is wlan0 being created? Do you know which driver is being used? (NetWiz will tell you this)? What encryption scheme is being used?

Could you post the output of lsproc and dmesg? Does dmesg show any errors?

Or pm me the output of pmodemdiag (ignore any error messages it might throw).

Cheers

This was a bug we solved in lucid puppy, it's probably missing installwatch. Perhaps it is in the precise repos.

With Python people are very much on their own. I try to avoid Python like plague. I did have Python apps in Snow Puppy....since then I have tried to avoid them as much as I can...

I did need pygtk for my experiments with wireless apple airport dongle for wireless music streaming to my stereos...in Lucid 5.1 time.
I compiled it and...
I got it working but I also decided not to like Python at all...Python seems to conflict how I hope apps to work. Sorry.

Installwatch is in checkinstall deb. Activate ubuntu-precise-universe repo and install it. I have added it to the distro pkgs specs...

Yeah...I will follow this thread actively....
