Re: Are there any distros with chrome based browser preinstalled?

It appears now that there is no such thing. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I made an ISO of WeeDog64-Void with Chromium installed. But it was not up to standards yet as I was just figuring out how to do it in the first place so the ISO could be burned to CD/DVD or directly extracted and copied to ...

Re: (Hardware) Suggestions for video editing on a budget?

now that OpenShot is running, I was wondering what happened to the zoom effect. It seems some of the video effect choices are missing compared to version 1.4.3. Is there way to add them? Or were they removed by the developers?

@mikewalsh

I downloaded and installed the openshot sfs and it started right away! Openshot is working smoothly and so far as I can tell until I really dig into some editing, has all the components working as expected. Good stuff Mike! Thanks!

Re: Puppy Linux 8.0 not detecting Wireless

the Dell driver: e1000e is a standard so I am not sure yet what is going on. It should be in the kernel's firmware.

the boot option page is what I am talking about. it is there where you place the line net.ifnames=0

when you boot this Bionic from the CD is it working otherwise?

Re: Puppy Linux 8.0 not detecting Wireless

the kernel you are running is 4.19.23 ? What is the kernel version in the gentoo that sees the card?

How old is your machine again? Perhaps a kernel swap to an earlier kernel will have the firmware needed by your card?

Re: Puppy Linux 8.0 not detecting Wireless

when you boot from CD use F2 on the splash page to get a prompt to add a kernel parameter

Code: Select all

net.ifnames=0
this will insure that the network cards begin with the names eth0 and wlan0
this will make it easier for us to debug by using common names

then attempt the ifconfig commands again

I am leaning towards having sub sections in the How To. It seems logical from an organizational stand point.

I am working on a 5.6.X real time kernel but so far I am reaching kernel panic during the boot process, so so refinement needed.
