Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Hi guys! I've been using for a couple of weeks bionicpup32 and I'm quite happy in my old desktop.

But, I want to go full puppy with my 2 in 1 Acer Aspire Switch 10e. In my attempts I'm not be capable of use it, and I'm talking on FocalFossa and BionicPup64.

Some points,

1- the Acer is 64bits arch
2- don't have Ethernet , only WiFi and any distro is taking my WiFi (in webpages some users recommend me to change the WiFi chip). Only connects with a USB dongle
3- the integrated speakers are damaged but with headphones I can listen (with many distros).

Now I go to the things

BionicPup64: boot from my liveusb but simply the screen stays in black

FocalFossa: don't have internal audio and I don't know how to make it work

Any help is

FocalFossa: don't have internal audio and I don't know how to make it work

Is this the only issue with Fossapup64 9.5?

If this is a very new computer.
Fossapup64 9.5 would be the best Puppy version to try and get all the issues fixed.

In Fossapup64
menu->Setup->AlSA Sound Wizard->Sound Card Wizard
Does it list any card with analog in the description? (analog is usually what will work)
If yes.
Do you have that selected as default sound card?
If yes.
Then you need to adjust the settings for it.
Select configure button
This is the ALSA mixer
Make sure settings for master, PCM, Headphon, and anything else you think may help are turned up.
The bottom of the slider is OO or MM.
OO indicates it is turned on active.
MM indicates turned off not active.
To change this.
Select the slider by using the keyboard arrow keys.
It is selected when the name is highlighted.
Pressing the m key toggles from OO to MM.

Note:
If the computer has keys to adjust sound.
Puppy usually does not support them.
Adjustments are made as stated above.

Any help?
Any info you give use, give details and be specific.

Example sound card wizard:
(my hardware, yours will be different)

Well, it's a weird thing to be truth

In Sound card wizard I get this, and no matter what I choose I don't have sound.

And if I go to configure, in any option I have this

I have volume rockers in my 2 in 1 but doesn't happen anything.
