DebianDog - Squeeze
Edit:08.08.2014 a bit later: Use old Skype version after 01.08.2014
Edit: 08.14.2014 - Does not work from today. No need to download the modules. I will remove them from the site soon.
Edit: Replaced with a little modified version which works in DebianDog Wheezy and Squeeze.
Uploaded 039-debiandog-skype4.0.0.8-skype2.2.squashfs sfs with skype 4.0.0.8 and skype 2.2.0.35 (53Mb)...

New DebianDog-Squeeze-Jwm-Icewm.iso uploaded.
Changes from previous version (mostly latest Wheezy changes - Wheezy both versions will be updated also in the next few days):
1. Compression method changed from xz to gzip for the main module, all available for download squashfs modules and all module creating scripts. Iso size is now 173Mb (or 40Mb bigger just because of compression method change but works well and fast on very old hardware - P-III 600Mhz and 128Mb RAM + 500Mb swap file). It is Debian old-stable system and old program versions and I doubt anyone will use it on modern hardware but in such case it could be easy changed from the user again to maximum xz compressed system.
2. Make Save File - default label option changed to show empty label.
3. New much improved mount-wizard from Sfs and Fred. Old mount wizard available as separate deb package for download and can be installed together with the new one.
4. Frisbee - patched for bash upgrade
5. move-in-crypt - manage encrypted save file utility
6. Auto-fix dependencies after installing deb package script with GUI and right click file(s)/directory option for Rox and XFE.
7. Changes for ffconvert and probepart as separate packages.
8. Improved ffmpeg2sfs.
9. improved mountlink (for porteus boot).
10. New gtkdialog-splash version.
11. Added pppoe and pppoeconf.
12. Improved /opt/bin/mnt-backing script.
13. Custom compiled pup-volume-monitor (the previous one was not working for porteus-boot with encrypted save file. Now works).
14. Uploaded DEVX squashfs module for download.
15. Rox-filer changed to version 2.11

New DebianDog-Squeeze uploaded here.
Almost all updates from Wheezy version added.
Changes:
1. edit-sfs
2. Security fixes for wget and bash. For old iso version both available for download bash_4.1-3+deb6u2_i386-security-fix-debian-lts.deb, wget_1.12-2.2_i386.deb
3. Small configuration changes for mtpaint and jwm-theme-change in Jwm version.
4. Added LTS Squeeze repository. You can upgrade the system from time to time to get the latest official fixes.
5. RemasterCow with deleted (whiteout) files record option.
6. Replace mnt-img with filemnt in Jwm version with this configuration.
7. apt2sfs - added np-dpkg-registration by default (makes possible to update dpkg status with the included programs) and checking for dpkg errors (like not enough free space to extract packages).
8. loadmodule + initrd1.img - moded to support whiteout (deleted) files by default and replacing initrd1.img in separate kerenel modules + replacing initrd1.xz with systemd boot option.
9. Improved portablesfs-loadsfs-fuse.deb. More information here.
10. Reinstall all packages converted from Puppy with moded version to prevent later conflicts with official deb packages and edit all packages on the site (included, extra, testing...). Especially frisbee and sns.
11. Replace included zenity-portable with deb package conflicting with later installed zenity versions. Why we need this change read here.
12. apt-get upgrade
13. apt-get install libc6-i686
14. Fixed /opt/bin/loadsfs with desktop icon for drag and drop.
15. Install parcellite with startup links in $HOME/Startup
16. Power button to shutdown computer and PrintScreen starting scrotdlg.
17. Include testing chrootin script in /opt/bin/special useful for full install.
18. Install new gsu and add group wheel and menu entry for activate/deactivate password prompt on shutdown for user account.

21. Flashplayerchoice, change-netmanager and some other scripts need fixing to work with new yad-gsu.
22. New gsu deb package with 3 different gsu scripts + debdognew.zip to extract in /opt/docs. Installing gsu will search for this file and use the correct gsu for older DD versions. This is compatibility solution for some scripts in old DD versions. New DebianDog packages should work with any older or remastered DD version.
23. Script for checking free space in save file and popup warning for less than 30Mb This number can be changed easy from the user. The script goes in /root/Startup, /home/puppy/Startup and /ets/skel/Startup
24. New save2flash and snapmergepuppy scripts.
25. For Jwm version only - adding MJWM as third menu method. Reads files for each user account from $HOME/.local/share/applications + option to configure reading desktop files from any other directory.

33. apt-get install deb-multimedia-keyring
34. apt-get install unionfs-fuse - needed for new portablesfs chroot option.
35. portablesfs-loadsfs-fuse deb package + right click options for rox, xfe, thunar loadsfs-fuse for DD full install

Hi, Sketchman.
Nice to see I'm not the only one still using old-stable Squeeze
Just for information you may get some problems installing compiling tools with apt-get or Synaptic with DebianDog-Squeeze because of some upgraded libs from Wheezy version.
To compile programs use the DEVX file from here:
http://smokey01.com/saintless/DebianDog ... m-Modules/
Or just install and use aptitude after update:
It will give you the option to downgrade what is needed to install compiling tools keeping the system in shape.

Just wanted to note that I installed this on my old military (actually probably police) surplus IX-250 Itronix Gobook.
Celeron 800 (P-III) processor, 512 meg of RAM. Original operating system is Windows 2000.
Touchpad worked otb. Touchscreen does not work properly, but I don't use it so it doesn't matter.
Got graphics acceleration working by installing standard mesa files. Don't have in front of me exactly what they were, but will look them up if anyone needs to know.
Sound did not work otb, because proprietary driver (Maestro 3 from ESS) not available. Loaded the porteus driver squashfs file from earlier wheezy Debian Dog development and that fixed it. (this might have also helped with the graphics, not sure). Will try later to see if maybe I can copy over just individual driver.
Of all the Puppies and Debian Dog Wheezy I've tried on this laptop, this performs the best. Browser is useable. It plays SD type videos pretty close to flawlessly, which I don't think it has done with any other OS.
As usual, great job.

Thanks Dan.
I use dd-squeeze as my main system and I agree the browser is still usable.
I guess you downloaded libgl1-mesa-dri and the porteus drivers are in 031-firmware-porteus.squashfs from here:
http://smokey01.com/saintless/DebianDog/System-modules/
Maybe I will update this iso one more time in the future with some fixes in the special utilities from Wheezy and Jessie.

Just a short post to report a success story with DD Squeeze.
I was just given a 15-year-old Dell Latitude CPx laptop with a completely dead battery, a 600MHz CPU, and 385MB RAM.
I wanted to see if I could keep this thing out of the landfill by using it as a short-term loaner for web access for people who bring their Windoze PCs to me for repair.
I tried Lucid Puppy but it didn't have the drivers for the ethernet card.
I tried DD Jessie but it didn't have the drivers for the display.
I tried Wary Puppy and it "worked" but used so much memory that the browser was unusably slow. That, plus I couldn't get the browser to stop popping up dozens of "certificate" error windows (caused by the system clock being wrong because of the dead battery).
Then I tried DD Squeeze. It booted up and connected to the internet automatically and instantly . Iceweasel didn't complain about the system date error, and displayed web pages about as well as one could expect with 385MB RAM and a 600MHz CPU. Once loaded, web pages scrolled smoothly.
Nice work, Toni !

Nice to read the Squeeze version works well for others.
New iso uploaded and first post information updated.
DebianDog-Squeeze-hybrid-29.08.2015.iso - 157Mb.
The older iso is still available for download here.
Changes in the new version:
1. Updated yad and some special DD scripts with lates changes from Fred for Wheezy and Jessie.
2. Included menu-openbox from Fred with localisation support (the default menu displays categories and menu entries only in English). In case you like to change the localisation type menu-openbox in terminal or start it from System -> Menu Openbox.
3. Added DebianDog-Squeeze repository in sources list as in Wheezy/Jessie. New packages and fixes will be provided with apt-get/synaptic.
4. The included packages upgraded to the latest versions.
5. The iso changed to hybrid as DebianDog-Jessie and MintPup.
6. Added fixes from William in initrd1.xz and some scripts for sd-card install (I can't test sd-card install but it should work).
7. Some upgraded libs from Wheezy changed with Squeeze versions which made possible to remove some dev packages not needed for regular use and the iso size is smaller now. This also fixed the problem mentioned in this post.
8. Some small and not important configuration changes for Icewm menu setup and other scripts.
9. Added Dillo as alternative web browser for very old computers (dillo is not available in official squeeze repository).
10. Special portable DebDog-Squeeze-installer (without systemd boot menu entries) available for download here and how to use instruction.
11. Included clearRAM script in case you have very old machine (128 - 256Mb RAM).
Run it in terminal from time to time and the system will work faster. For example this is the result running the script after fresh boot without starting any applications (256Mb RAM computer):
More tips from William read here.
I guess this is the last DD-Squeeze iso version. The main reason to update the iso is adding sd-card install support and special repository for installing fixed and updated packages with apt-get (synaptic).

Code: Select all
clearRAM
This script will clear cached memory and free up your ram.
At the moment you have 110 MiB cached and 34 MiB free memory.
This freed 128 MiB, so now you have 162 MiB of free RAM.

firmware-b43-installer fails on Squeeze
.
Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop requires "firmware-b43-installer" package for wireless.
It installs (and works) flawlessly with both MintPup and DD Jessie.
But attempts to install it with DD Squeeze cause the error shown in the attached pic.

And give some more information like any extra packages installed from you, any extra repositories added (with Synaptic or by editing /etc/apt/sources.list), is it the last iso version and I will try to reproduce the error and suggest some solution.
Edit: Reading the postinst script it does unsupported chips checking with "echo" command output and maybe fails for some reason. The code inside postinst script in Jessie package looks different.
Installing the firmware-b43-installer in terminal with apt-get instead with Synaptic should give more information about the problem you have.

I'm not sure if the wifi will work with b43 firmware from squeeze repository but you can test this:
Code: Select all
apt-get install b43-fwcutter
Then extract the attached archive in /opt/bin (or /usr/bin).
Open terminal and type firmware-b43.sh. This is the same postins script from firmware-b43-installer deb package but with all checking code removed.
It just downloads the firmware archive and using b43-fwcutter builds firmware files in /lib/firmware/b43 directory:

If the firmware from squeeze repo doesn't work you can try to copy and paste the files from DD-Jessie /lib/firmware/b43 in DD-Squeeze /lib/firmware/b43 folder.
I don't see other options for the moment.
Edit: Try the suggestion here first:

Re: firmware-b43-installer fails on Squeeze

Is the firmware-b43-installer in Squeeze repo different from the ones in Jessie and Mint repos?
If so, should I try installing firmware-b43-installer from the Jessie repo (please pardon my lack of knowledge if this suggestion is nonsense).
I will go ahead and try the other suggestions you made.

Nice to read thisEther wrote:Installed successfully; wireless connected successfully.
I know but with different firmware-b43 deb package made for Jessie which includes in the same package also low power chip firmware.Ether wrote:But firmware-b43-installer installs and works great on the exact same machine using DD Jessie and MintPup.
Squeeze and Wheezy deb package keeps low power chip b43 firmware in different deb package called firmware-b43-lpphy-installer.
Without reading the error message about "Not supported low power chip..." posted from you I didn't know what to search as a problem.

DDsqueeze works fine on old first generation Intel Classmate
Hi Toni,saintless wrote:Hi, William.
Your motion works well on P-II, 128Mb RAM machine.
Available for installing with apt-get/synaptic motion-light package:

(EDIT: For the above motion install to work with Debian-squeeze, using apt-get install, I think we need a copy of the motion-light deb package in DebianDog-Squeeze/Packages/Extra on smokey01 site, Toni)
As a blast from the past I resurrected an old Intel Classmate (first generation 7 inch lcd screen clamshell type - Celeron M mobile processor - 915GMS + ICH6-M, and mine was upgraded to 512MB DDR2 RAM). I originally received this machine as a development incentive from Intel research labs whilst working on foksyfeyer (almost 8 years ago! - I believe BarryK, raffy and Caneri, who told me about it, amongst others also received Classmates back in 2007/2008 - they should try your DDsqueeze on it!): Old link to foksyfeyer, but still working:
http://arkitektia.heliohost.org/foksyfe ... index.html
As shown in attached photos, the classmate machine now has a damaged lcd screen: only just over half the screen still displays. Nevertheless, I had the otherwise working classmate in mind as a motion detection server (for which even no working screen would do...) using DD-squeeze and my motion-light compilation mentioned above and discussed in link here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 358#836950
Anyway, just reporting that the old classmate boots fine from DD-squeeze (using Porteus boot frugal install on /dev/sdb1 - the machine seems to have an SD slot under the casecover - I'll probably use that later if the classmate will boot from SD, which I believe it can EDIT: confirmed, now booting from inserted SDHC card - also, years ago, I used to boot Puppy 4 Dingo from its internal Flash drive). I boot it using grub4dos via the existing Windows XP installation using method described in Lin'N'Win project. My menu.lst stanza is:
