Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

somehow my .asoundrc was .asoundrc.bak so i had no sound in FF until i found that.

or is that all over complicated and i just should use what is in the repos?

At least after copying from backup '/lib/modules/*kernel-number*-generic' additional sensors, virtual cd drive and nvidia proprietary driver works again. Maybe it is worth to include additional option to keep changes in the kernel folder for cases when kernel dependent software is used. Granted you need to reinstall all this software (and kernel headers) every time you change kernel

And Quick Remaster stalls when there is already existing 'remaster' directory
Code: Select all
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘remaster’: File exists

I see that FossaDog has newer Kernel version than BusterDog. I tried it and almost all my squashfs work (since many of them are from ubuntu repos).

Is there a Build system/script like BusterDog?

Thanks again for your amazing job

Seems like quick-remaster 1.2.6 and 1.2.5 doesn't merge loaded squashfs modules. Merging is working in 1.2.4 version.

And 1.2.6/1.2.5 versions show "1.2.4" in it's window name.

Thanks, I'm working on other things now, but will look at it sooner or later.

Finally... I tested 1.2.6 now, but could not reproduce, for me extra loaded squashfs modules are merged in the remaster (except for the kernel .squashfs, which is not merged on purpose)
Anything special about your setup ? (so I could try to reproduce perhaps doing similar).

Fred

It is working! 1.2.6 and 1.2.4! Identically! The only thing is that only 01-filesystem.squashfs getting renamed with ".bak". Other modules persists so you need to remove/rename them manually. Maybe they was renamed in the old versions and I just interpreted it wrongly (or I'm just having some minor one-time-only bug again)

Does it planed to create and become published the documentation for the Focal Fossa?

The main reason of this question is that I'm (and probably many other as well) are unsure, with kernel parameters would be accepted in the boot process" Puppy's , Debian/Ubuntu ones or mixed.

@mcgiwer
From first post of this thread (if your looking for boot codes specially for FossaDog):

Boot Method: porteus-boot , see examples; https://github.com/DebianDog/FossaDog/r ... -codes.txt

For the rest all general kernel parameters can be used, AFAIK.

Not much documentation for now TBH, only at first post, and at https://debiandog.github.io/doglinux/zz04fossadog.html and above Examples-boot-codes.txt.
(not sure if more will be written in the future)

Question: Does anyone know who are the developers of FossaDog and how can they be contacted? There is no info about them neither on the website, nor on GitHub

I ask because I haven't seen any activity on neither of any from mentioned above since several months

I just heard from fredx181, Have you tried to send a PM or email to him via this forum?

Yes, as rockedge alludes, it is fredx181, who was one of the original developers of the DebianDogs, and now maintains all of them including FossaDog; he texted you on this forum thread as lately ago as 10 April above. Forum member 'saintless', Toni, who started the DebianDogs, left the forum a long time ago.
