Solaar .pet? (For managing Logitech wireless)

#1 Post by paule »

Has anyone installed solaar for managing Logitech wireless devices in puppy linux? Would anyone be able to create a .pet file of this program?

Thanks in advance.

cheers, Paul

Thanks very much for the reply.
I am using Puppy 4.31, (MacPup Opera) which is the latest version of Puppy which will work on my GoBook III laptop. The other versions you suggest won't work, unfortunately.

Thanks again for the time and attention.

cheers, Paul

Way too old to run this software. Needs a newer kernel and other goodies not available in 4.31

Since LTunify is used at the command line would that be possible to implement?

It's easy to build the ltunify command line program for Puppy 431. But it still requires the hid-logitech-dj driver which doesn't appear in Puppy until around kernel 3.2.

I tried to build the kernel module from source in Puppy 431, but it failed.

Thanks very much for the time attention and effort. Looks like I will have to pair the devices on another machine and then use them.

Thanks again.

cheers, Paul
