DEVILDOG!!! A Linux for Satan!!!

Apparently, Ted Dog also referred to his DeVilDog distribution as DevilDog on occasion:

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 1960#21960

So a new one does create some confusion and tends to mask an important developmental stage of Puppy history it seems.

Of course I realise this new DevilDog is just a bit of a jest. I haven't tried it but will take a look sometime since it is the first DebianDog remaster I've seen published.

Thankyou for pointing out the remarkable typo!
I'm sure Ted will rush to correct any possible confusion between his (dead dog dingo) DeVilDog, and the one and only DevilDog!!!

Satan, Google, and the Unix Filesystem agree...
THIS ... IS ... DevilDog!!!

And don't go do something mean like release DeViLdOg or dEviLdoG!
Satan, Google and Liz Hurley WILL KNOW!!!

[mcewanw]

And don't go do something mean like release DeViLdOg or dEviLdoG!

Oh no... I wouldn't do anything like that, I've got my eyes on Puppy slackO or precisE or precise or slacko or maybe even mICROSOFT windoWs Xp puppy.

Oh well, here goes: Downloaded but bedtime here so will try this tomorrow. Hope that doesn't mean I'll go to Hell (assuming I'm not going there already...)

A DebianDog remaster? How about DebilDog?

Forum rule for bugs fixing section:



Devil.Dog, please, do me a favour!
Ask Satan or Liz to step on him, he has Debil thoughts:



And if Satan has time to write small instruction how exactly was compiled the ATI driver on DebianDog it will be much appreciated

@Saintless... thanks for your kind words...
DebianDog was bound to cause a stir - we spent a long time exploring the various distros before we 'jacked yours!
(Good job by the way!)

Bugs....

yeah get them before they get you!

Devil.Dog, please, do me a favour!

Your wish is my command!

...ATI driver on DebianDog

We used your DEVX.. 06-DEVX-DebDog-2.squashfs ...

Code: Select all

./amd-driver-installer-14.10.1006.1001-x86.x86_64.run

I got lucky ... on the ASUS X102B the binary driver from ATI's site installed ...with one small exception ... Direct Rendering. Xorg.0.log she say 'yes yes yes' but glxinfo say 'no no no'!!!

Not a problem - going to use one of your handy premade pae kernels for 0.2+ so started again from scratch yesterday. Next release by the weekend.

ASUS... if you're watching ... We would have preferred an NVIDIA!!!
ATI ... If you're watching ... We're gonna get you (and your pretty dog!!!)

The open source drivers are fairly straightforward but not REALLY providing direct render... we'll see later...

Code: Select all

apt-get update
apt-get install firmware-linux-nonfree

Screen "0" is not direct rendering capable.

We are unsure how good the open source driver is in terms of OpenGL performance ... more soon.

PS... Thanks for the link in your next post !

[saintless]

Thanks, Devil.Dog!
BTW the OpenBox version you use as base is builded and maintained by Fredx181.

Direct Rendering. Xorg.0.log she say 'yes yes yes' but glxinfo say 'no no no'!!!

Maybe this post will give her some ideas how to seduce better

Edit: Thank you for adding more details in your last post!

[mcewanw]

Thankyou for pointing out the remarkable typo!

Yes, further research indicated that writing DeVilDog as DevilDog in but one post was no more than a typo. It also seems, which only Ted Dog could confirm, that the name DeVilDog is very specific (and the upper case 'V' very necessary here) and is simply a contraction of De Vil Dog and is concerned with multiple puppy save sessions. De Vil in that context would be the very specific and Puppy relevant:

Cruella de Vil is the main antagonist of Dodie Smith's 1956 novel The Hundred and One Dalmatians, Disney's 1961 animated film adaptation One Hundred and One Dalmatians, and Disney's live-action film adaptations 101 Dalmatians and 102 Dalmatians. In all her incarnations, Cruella kidnaps Dalmatian puppies for their fur

So in that light there doesn't seem to be any copyright name conflict (not with DevilDog anyway, but the name De Vil is probably copyright Walt Disney, though I'm sure they won't notice :-) ).

Set up and tested the '026-kernel-3.14-0.bpo.1-686-Pae'.

ASUS X102B ...
Touch Screen - Functioning
SMP - Enabled
PAE - Enabled

Nice.

Open Source graphics driver performance - poor.
Only 25% of the framerate of the Proprietary driver.

Trying 022-kernel-686-pae tonight.

Is there a prebuilt development (DEVX) for the 026 and 022 kernels?!

[Devil.Dog]

Something for the weekend, sir?

Split an X Desktop across multiple machines?!?

Distributed Multihead X Project!

[saintless]

Thank you for testing graphic drivers install. This kind of information was missing for DebianDog and I and Fred do not have proper hardware for it.

Is there a prebuilt development (DEVX) for the 026 and 022 kernels?!

The packages are the same for all kernels except linux-headers. You can install easy proper linux headers for any kernel with:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)

and then load the DEVX module.

Packages included in DEVX in case you like to build different one for your testing:

Code: Select all

apt-get install build-essential automake autoconf libtool pkg-config libcurl4-openssl-dev intltool libxml2-dev libgtk2.0-dev libnotify-dev libglib2.0-dev libevent-dev checkinstall upx-ucl linux-headers-3.2.0-4-486

+ added BaCon files inside later.
And the post about building this DEVX.

Code: Select all

root@dog:~# apt-cache search dmx
libdmx-dev - X11 Distributed Multihead extension library (development headers)
libdmx1 - X11 Distributed Multihead extension library

mudita24 - ALSA GUI control tool for Envy24 (ice1712) soundcards

Yes, I love Debian. It is so easy to install anything

Guys; If anyone has the time and ability, how about multi-seat.?

Any Linux distro can do: PXE-boot, multi-seat, multi-monitor.

Imagine the usefulness of a PXE-boot with multi-seat.
Libraries, net cafes, call centers, schools, and home use.
Most PCs can easily handle 2 to 3 web browsing desktops.
.

[saintless]

Guys; If anyone has the time and ability, how about multi-seat.?

Quick search found some links with instructions. Maybe useful for someone who reads the thread and likes to experiment multi-seat setup:
For wheezy:
http://blog.startupanywhere.org/multise ... an-wheezy/
For Ubuntu and Debian (there is section in the middle of the page about Debian Wheezy setup + video):
http://documentation.thebigrede.net/sal ... ylink.html
And from Debian Wiki:

Thanks for the cool ideas, and the info on devx creation too!

Just finished testing the 3.2.0 kernel - of course the ati driver loves it - no errors.
Bad news though - with that kernel we loose the touchscreen! (Unless Xorg fixed it last time?!?!)

More later.

xxx.

[Devil.Dog]

so ...

the 3.14.n kernel actually needs patching to install the 14.4 ati / fglrx driver correctly.

didn't see that coming.

found a patch - applied it - fully compiled the driver - restarted - tested - all good - installing compiz - BATTERY FLAT! NooOOoOooOOoOoOOooo!!!

ok ... well ... redo tonight but can confirm that Debian kernel-3.14-0.bpo.1-686-Pae can be made to run the fglrx driver.... it also fixes my touchscreen - hoot hoot hoot!

Im alot happier about this more modern kernel - its the first we tried but FAILED to direct render first time round.

Ill post the new version tonight maybe !
