Porteus

Can we get checksums please?

.....the bundled (and renamed) module is in /tmp.

Linux and other operating systems refers to different Intel CPU generations as i386, i486, i586 and i686. i386 refers to the 80386 processor family, i486 refers to the 80486 processor family, i586 refers to Intel Pentium or Pentium MMX processors, and i686 refers to all Pentium Pro and later process...

Your new file would blacklist "wl",if existing. 4.0 doesn't support wifi on netbook. 3.2.2 does. (Post by jssouza #67440) The file does actually un-blacklist the other drivers. (which are commented out in the original file) An empty file would have the same effect - if i'm not completely mistaken. (...

I running XFCE

same do i

I have found no other entry dealing with network

There should be a netwok (manager) icon in the panel (top right)

iwlist scan shows lots of networks along with mine

This clearly indicates that the wifi is up and running.

The last output looks good to me 'afaics' no firmware errors. (put the firmware module in the modules folder to be loaded at boot-up) I need to give a password somehow to connect with my router Yep..credentials are required. :) Did you create a connection profile with your credentials in network-man...

OK, back to porteus 4.0 4.0 doesn't have the wl driver so we do not need to blacklist. remove /etc/modprobe.d/b43_blacklist.conf and broadcom_blacklist.conf (or commend out the blacklisted files) ( make a backup copy first!) start USM usm -g b43 and fetch the firmware > activate the module run modpr...

Porteus 4.0 doesn't ship the proprietary wl.ko driver so all of the free drivers shouldn't be blacklisted in b43_blacklist.conf and broadcom_blacklist.conf. ( the module contains corrected files ) However, The information I found says that it should work with the b43 driver, but it may work with the...

While searching if this wifi issue has already be solved, I found this module:
https://yadi.sk/d/oyKc96JN3VpL6e%5Burl
It contains some firmware files and the modified blacklisting files.
Copy it into the modules folder > reboot and, fingers crossed, the wifi will work.

Good start,but not verbose enough.
try:
lspci -vnn | grep -i net
to get the textual and numeric ID's (names & numbers)

It may be that only a certain firmware is missing
grep -i firm /var/log/dmesg
Look for the usual suspects like "failed to load.." etc.

lspci -knn will show which driver is used.

Hi straybit frozen-bubble-2.2.1.3-x86_64-bundle-xfce-don.xzm md5sum c3d000974e845efb18ff17657805f427 This bundle was made to work with porteus 3.2.2. I don't know why it is available in 4.0...sorry.

I've been trying to use "root" or "guest" as password...

The default PW for root is toor

changes=/mnt/sdb/porteus/porteussave.dat

ok,but which partition? -- sdb1 = first partition etc.

guest@porteus:/tmp$ deb2xzm skypeforlinux-64.deb

I have a totally unusual, crazy idea:
run the command as root.

What about ...the other two pydoc files? Are they corrupt or does it serve a purpose? Some quotes from the i-net (personally, I know next to nothing about python) .py - Regular script .pyc - compiled script (Bytecode) .pyo - optimized pyc file (As of Python3.5, Python will only use pyc rather than ...
