Will try again sometime

@greengeek Cannot try this fix because the computer keeps saying ".sfs not found dropping out initial ramdisk console" every other boot. Two different USB sticks and two different versions of Puppy. Also having a sudden battery problem. Wits end..

Left hinge of the device unexpectedly broke off into two pieces after your replies came through which has delayed this reply. Screen was hanging off by the display ribbons even. Fortunately superglue has figured it until a more permeant solution can be figured out. greengeek As a soft restart is ...

What version/edition/name of PuppyLinux is it would you know? @scsijon

PiZZa3

@scsijon Would it be Puppy Linux Japanese Version? Not seeing anything mentioning Kohjinsha in their files.

@PiZZa3 It's that lovely small one, I was into minaturisation of things, like a mobile phone as small as a box of matches at the time. My companion at the time, was involved with teaching graphic character design over here in australia and teaching manga production management in japan, and sent it ...

@PiZZa3 :- Just a query, mate. Are you by any chance the same individual who's posting as " fizzcontinued " over at BleepingComputer? Because that person is also trying to do stuff with this exact same netbook..... Just curious, that's all! Mike. ;) Yes that would be me. The effort put into your ...

Did the same steps but this time selected 1gb, and did not install eGalax before saving and found was able to restart fine and PuppyLinux was saving. But as soon as eGalax is installed and the system then restarted, the USB drive is not recognised as having anything bootable on it by the device ...

greengeek That is the site yes. Found it is accessible using a VPN and was able to download driver. Thanks for offering to post. And apologies, only just seen you had asked for the readout of xinput -list and for file /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Terminal says "bash: xinput: command not found" for the ...

Inconveniently the eGalax website is down currently and I do not have a copy of it. Anyone have it saved? @bigpup @greengeek

Unfortunately the system keeps freezing soon after downloading. This is Slacko 6.3.2. Uextract is also not on the device I have had a look through the start menu several times. Running the OS live off a USB drive so may be related. Usually it is in menu->Utility-> But if not there, simply install ...

The only reason I mention eGalaxtouch is because there is a version of Linux that was specifically made for the device that uses it. They custom added it to the OS. Super OS but has 1 problem that nobody will helps with because it is antiquated. https://wikiwiki.jp/knot/Ubuntu%209.04%20Netbook ...

PiZZa3

Sorry for late response will be trying solutions later

PiZZa3

Searching for answer to your touch screen problems. I keep seeing reference to a configuration setup for the eGalaxtouch. Not sure if Puppy Linux would or would not have this. If the eGalaxtouch driver is being loaded and used. See if you can find this: Run /usr/local/eGalaxTouch32/EgalaxTouch : do ...

PiZZa3, I don't recall if you said you could use (or had tried) a USB mouse with your tablet? Not that it's a direct solution to the problem at hand, but at least easier to work on. (btw, when I first saw your nick, I thought it might be the return of pizzasgood after many years, but that would ...

I have a question with regards to Tahr606. Are the libraries upgraded, etc. so that one can run the latest browsers out of the box? I know that one can't with Tahr605.

If you are asking me, I have no idea.

Kjellinux FocalPup32 (From this link https://sourceforge.net/projects/zestypup/files/Upup-Focal%2B/UPupFF%2BD-20.12%2B7.iso/download) to a black screen during boot and goes anywhere. Also, noticed your video is for a swap partition, this seems to be different to a swap file. Which is more advisable ...

Tested this OS and it works just as all other operating systems I have tried on the device do (Described in OP) unfortunately.

Light browser is for pages like this forum. It's not a full-blown browser. I would recommend a distro with it, however, because the pre-installed Puppy browser loads to ram, and yours is sparce. I'm typing in it. Mine doesn't run Youtube or Facebook. My bottleneck right now is the machine that won ...

@PiZZa3 SeaMonkey , Pale Moon and Light Web Browser are three light browsers that work with Puppy Linux. Depending on your version of Puppy, they may be available in the Puppy Package Manager . If not, you may find them as portable applications created specifically to work with Puppy Linux ...

Hi all, Very new to PuppyLinux and Linux in general. My device is simply not up to running the full-blown Firefox install that is included with PuppyLinux. It is too slow to open and use for to be practical. The OS does not help by being fairly intensive. 512mb of RAM and Intel Atom Z510 with Intel ...

PiZZa3

Only found it on accident from a mis click that went to a new place containing a /var/. I think I had been looking in /local/ ( :?: :? ) before. Or it could be down to being 6.3.0.1 - either way good shout bigpup . 6.3.0.1 runs a slightly quicker all around and with less small glitches (No placebo ...

Try in a terminal issuing a command: dmesg | grep -i touch , it may give some information @greengeek was requesting, to check driver. Copy and paste command into terminal. Pasted that command into terminal and after pressing enter it did nothing, immediately went to the next # line in the terminal ...

lsmod readout # lsmod Module Size Used by .... iptable_filter 996 0 Hmmm, interesting. I was hoping that we would be able to see the driver module that had been allocated to the touchscreen - but I don't see anything there that I would consider specific to the screen. Would it be possible to get ...

It turns out 6.3.0.1 does not exhibit the berserk behaviour of 7.0. The cursor is misaligned with wherever is pressed as like all other operating systems (Described in OP). How can I calibrate the touchscreen now on this OS? Thanks. I think i have a copy of xinput-calibrator somewhere. Will try to ...

For both Slacko versions. If you can get to Applications(menu)->Setup->Mouse/keyboard Wizard->Touchpad There are settings you can adjust. Hi, using Puppy Slacko 6.3.0.1 and there are no settings for a touchscreen in the input wizard, and clicking on Touchpad it says "Couldn't find synaptics ...
