Update. I have the monitor up and running, however I can't get it to sync with the bios screen. I have tried the multi monitor setup on my test install, and no matter what I do it always chooses the old dell as the primary monitor. mikewalsh The Radeon driver is working fine, although it doesn't wan...

Hardinfo reports I have the correct kernel module I believe.

mikewalsh I tried the pet for the nvidia 450 from quickpet. it downloads and says it is installed and puts a overlay on the desktop saying so, and reboot computer. After doing so I have a radeon settings in the menu which aparently does not launch. Mind you, I do not have the new card installed, ho...

mikewalsh I finally have a screen! OOTB, the AMD card will default to the in-kernel "radeon" driver. The GTX 1060 will default to the in-kernel "nouveau" driver. By rights, you should get a picture on the monitor straight away. I'm assuming here that you'll be going with HDMI? I...

Got the manual for the monitor, some of it is a bit greek to me but it looks like it will support most resolutions. Timing1.jpg Looks like when I get my hdmi cable I should be able to get the new card to work. Timing2.jpg Odd that I can't seem to get it to work with the current card. Perhaps I can f...

ASUS PB278Q 27" Widescreen HDMI DP WQHD PLS LED 2K Monitor 2560 x 1440

Evidently, I can't post with FF without posting one line at a time. Another long post gone. I will try to write it in a text file and post it.

peppyy

Had a big post with all the specs on everything, unfortunately it took me too long to write, (with distractions etc.) The monitor is a ASUS PB278Q 27" Widescreen HDMI DP WQHD PLS LED 2K Monitor 2560 x 1440. The cards are Card #1 rv 630 512mb Two integrated dual-link DVI display outputs Each sup...

Bought a 2K monitor to go with the GPU. No way to know if it works since I can't see the bios screen, must be too high a resolution for it since I only get a message, (Out of range).

peppyy

Update! Waiting to find out if the 450 works or not. Tried the cards a couple times and my mother board had a VGA led lit up. I think it is because my monitor does not support the minimum resolution. The card lit up in all it's glory, logos etc. so I bought a monitor that should support it. Should a...

I found this on the old forum, the pet was built for fatdog64 but works fine in Fossa64. https://oldforum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=85488

I am looking into modifying it to a larger size for my screen.

peppyy

It finds the os and boots fine, runs great. The only confusion I have is I appear to have 2 save files. On in it's own folder/mnt/sdd3/fossausb I created, and another in /mnt/sdd3 I think when I was running live from the cd, before rebooting I saved the file? I will look and see which one is newer n...

peppyy

I created a folder for called fossausb for the sfs files and did the same for the save file. That works perfectly. The only issue I had was that somehow it seems to have grabbed some extra sfs files from somewhere else which I believe was on a different drive. Libre office, 32bit compatibility, mast...

Could just need to delete the partition and do it all over again. Unfortunately not after I got the case off it. It bit the dust. I had two pairs of magnifiers and and a magnifying glass and couldn't see anything wrong with it until I found the tiny cracks in the circuit board. Beyond my skill leve...

I resurrected the Lexar 16 with some help from DD and your advice I found on another post. It is still a bit bent but the sliding collar holds it together. Unfortunately it only appears to work once before I get an error. "<i>Unable to read the contents of this file system! Because of this some...

Can't thank you enough for this post. Saved 2 of my usb 3.0 drives. Now I should be able to use one to put my working copy of fossa64 on it to tweak. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

peppyy

Don't have any empty USB drives right now. Might have to dust off one of my old 4 gig drives and copy the files somewhere first. Found a lexar 16gb with easyos on it but the dog bent it and I am not sure how trustworthy it is.

peppyy

I know in the past I have done this with no problems, for instance with Tahr64. I was thinking it must have something to do with my burner setup, (which works perfectly with everything else.) I did create a save file with a different name "fossa64save-live" on the suggested partition, and ...

If you mean did I check the box to close disk? I don't see an option to keep it open?

If this helps, I can still add folders/files to the dvd with Pburn.

Edit Works on usb or hdd but not on cd, cdr, dvd, dvdr. See discussion for more details. Thanks bigpup and Flash Is there a secret to getting a dvdrw to allow for saves on a disc? I wanted to create a live cd or dvd that allows me to test hardware. Put the fossa65-9.5 iso on it with pburn in open s...

Now on to adapters, or another monitor that can use DVI D2, hdmi or display port. Probably should just go for the adapter first.
I'll let you all know how it works out.

peppyy

mikewalsh I am wondering if that may be the one already included in Quickpet? desktop(17).jpg I was trying to find out if it was added in an update or was original? All I could find in updates was "ndivia 340 driver in quickpet broke MPV ... fixed" . I have downloaded 459.57_k5.4.53 but h...

Jasper looking here I see a bunch of them. https://archive.org/download/puppy_linux_-fossapup64. Do I need both the glx and the drivers are they one and the same? I am guessing that since they are all pet files listed under fossapup64 that they should be pre-configured? I don't know if they overwri...

Greetings all. A friend of mine is giving me 2 - GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING X 6G GPUs. I know my motherboard supports multiple gpu's however I am not sure if the current, (Stock) Radeon driver will support them. According to PSI the kernel is 5.4.53 and according to blender, sysinfo reports 'Linux-5.4....

mikewalsh Just a couple of questions. Is there a way to use more than 1 core on my AMD FX-6300 6 core? It appears to only use one thread. I know the AMD/ATI RV630 PRO graphics card isn't supported. I have set the cpu to on demand and it still pretty much idles. EDIT Upgraded to 3.2 and cleared out ...

UPDATE mikewalsh Remember I said I had no wan when using a static ip address. Turns out it may be due ti this specific router. According to this link https://www.hyllander.org/content/d-link-dir-655-how-create-static-route-lan the d-link dir-655 has an issue with the firmware that only allows local...

mikewalsh You are correct, with an AMD card either one will work. I see you have been busy as always. Although I have not tried the portable yet I have been very busy with the program and having too much fun. I have been using your blender portable to create furniture and other necessities for my p...

mikewalsh To tell the truth I have so busy the last few days designing that I haven't given it a thought. As I said it can be very addicting . I run it from 2 different installs of fossa64. One is a clean install and the other is my everyday use with my usual tools and apps. It is nice to be able t...

mikewalsh Learning a bit more about this program. I was looking to install a roof generator plugin and found that it does create a .eteks folder in root to save backups, settings and plugins. desktop(22).jpg I was hoping everything was stored in the uncompressed folder. :roll: I guess there are cer...

mikewalsh I had a love/hate relationship with Java back in the day. I used to code a bit, "HTML In notepad" and it was so frustrating to know what every browser had for Java. I had so many browsers installed in 95 to check it all. That was when I switched to DTML since it was better suppo...
