same bug with nouveau as in precise 5.4.3
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=84002
the menu text is not showing as well as some icons and their text.
I switched themes, still no good
under racy 5.5 which I think uses nouveau everything looks fine,
racy will also easily switch to nvidia driver version 173 in my case
PPM and Precise 5.5

All working in my install. I have to signal freezes of PPM in some situations: but it's written in releases notes that PPM is not perfect.

For PPM, I use the interface "ziggy", it prevents freezes.

I SOLVED THE SOUND ISSUE WITH THE Radeon HD 6250/6310 CHIP (I'm happy)

The volume control on the taskbar still doesn't work though : it is always set to maximum and can't be lowered.

Hi !
Precise 5.5 has the nasty habit to freeze my mouse from time to time .
Had that with Macpup 5.2.8 too .
Anybody else ?
Schön Tag .!

Hi! Thanks for a new Puppies, it is a great job!
.
But i have still problem with PGPRS Connect in Precise. When i run modem with this application
Menu > Network > PGPRS
it is ok and modem connect. Problem when i want to disconnect, the keyboard short <ctrl>c not working. I press <ctrl>c again and again and modem still connected. It looks somethinks like this.

.
In another Puppies not problem. When i press <ctrl>c then modem disconnect. It looks something like this.

.
Why in Precise can not disconnect modem? In Slacko, Wary, Lucid, Puppy4.3.1, Puppy4.2.1 not problem.

witekjeden , dunno exactly why, but this happened to me also in dpup-485 and squeeze-pup by iguleder. Seems that it is a feature patch built into whatever .
To kill pgprs-connect:
in a separate terminal.

3builddistro file explains why the libblkid is not used from this util-linux pet, there is preference of other package for that lib and so...it has been dismissed.

How do we replace the lost functions then? It seems a few things require this library

Install the pet from here. and if you are going to need development files for compiling, install the DEV pet also.
For i486 (compiled in Wary) (450K, 835K):
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_pa ... 5-i486.pet
http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_pa ... 5-i486.pet

Hi
just a bug report on Precise
I downloaded the iso and dragged the three required files into a directory to boot
I have an amd phenom 11 cpu 4 gb ram and no cdrom installed..it boots from an SSD drive...precise 5.5 hangs on boot at the line .....recognising optical devices...
menu 1st reads as follows
title PRECISE
find --set-root --ignore-floppies --ignore-cd /precise/puppy_precise_5.5.sfs
kernel /precise/vmlinuz pmedia=atahd pfix=copy
initrd /precise/initrd.gz
have tried without "pmedia=atahd pfix=copy" but still hangs on same line

remasterpup2 eval_gettext

I found a mistake in line 378 of /usr/sbin/remasterpup2. Variables should be escaped. Otherwise this line is not found by xgettext and is not translated.
Code: Select all
$(eval_gettext "WARNING: Be sure that the live-CD or .iso file is the correct one for the currently running Puppy, which is '\${DISTRO_NAME}', version \${DISTRO_VERSION}. As a check, it must have in it the file '\${DISTRO_PUPPYSFS}'")

I am also booting all my different puppies from SSD
but like this:
# Linux bootable partition config begins
title precise5.5 on /dev/sda3)
root (hd0,2)
kernel /precise55/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda3 ro vga=normal pdev1=sda3 pfix=fsck
initrd /precise55/initrd.gz
# Linux bootable partition config ends
At 1st boot or pfix=ram I always have to wait, and wait....
Hope that helps

kill -s HUP 'pidof pppd'
kill -s HUP `pidof pppd`
backticks, not single quotes
also
kill -s 1 $(pidof pppd)
if zour language kezboard has no backticks available.
