Thanks francois. In fact, I come up with USB device problem on VB. So I use Vmware for better USB device control. I test VB and VMware on guest Windows 7 usb device speet test: USb=Kingston DT2 VB copy rate 3-4 mb/s Vmware copy rate 20mb/s I add extension pack to VB and also install guest to guest a...

Hi Beny

I did your instructions. But it doesn't work. HP 8500A has 4 parallel port. So VB doesn't handle all of them and lots of port make confuse for VB.

@Beny thanks for your advice. But Problem is not only connection. I search about what VB USB connection process. Icompare VB and VMware. At a result I figure out Vmware reset usb-storage. VB not. So if your printer has usb-storage on it esp HP versions , VB doesn't control this device. Vmware deal w...

Hi beny, How Can I enable usb print support on VB? I don't see that. @fanthom I made your instructions. And also I try to login with root. HP HP 8500A printer doesn't work. I search this issue and get some info. This error occur if printer has any storage device like sd card. HP 8500A printer has Di...

Hi all, I spent much more time to use HP 8500A printer in guest Windows 7. I install driver from it's CD and it looks everything is fine. But when I try to test print it waits and doesn't print. I try to use scanner and I get "cannot connect with scanner". I installed extension pack on VB. Any advice?

I test P.1.2 rc1 on VGA: 01:05.0 VGA * [AMD] nee ATI RS880M [Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series].
Here is output:
Fatal server error:
unloading ati-fglrx*
Starting up X11 session manager loop

@fanthom

lspci |grep VGA: 01:05.0 VGA * [AMD] nee ATI RS880M [Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series]

sory for late response. If I found another vga-detect problem laptop I'll give output.

Hi fanthom,

I'll give VGA spec which has problem. But I suppose that you should add control on rc.4 because we can't grab all VGA product id. And we can't predict all vga esp new ones. So If you add control it will solve problem whatever vga product.

Thanks fanthom and Beny for nVidia drivers but some ati vga makes error on fglrx driver. So ati*.xzm on /optional folder does not work correctly on all ati vga. I come up with "Starting up X11 session manager" error on ati vga laptops.
How can we deal with ati-vga problem?

Cheers..

Hi fanthom, I encounter some problem on vga-detect cheatcode. As you know some vga does not appropriate, and get error " Starting up X11 session manager". So how can we solve the problem? I suppose that we add some script to get this error message than 1. deactivate ati or nVidia*.xzm 2. startx Do u...

Thanks for Porteus 1.1 On LXDE if laptop cable is unpluged xmessage warns with "Low battery" message again and again. It made me bored. So I simply solve this problem from: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=79320 #!/bin/bash date >> ~/whos_calling_me echo $$ >> ~/whos_calling_me ps -FjH >> ...

Thanks eveyone for share their opinion.

@fanthom
I search about sub menu for syslinux. I hope I'll be succeed.

Hi Hamza,

Yes you right. 32 and 64 bit Arch will be in the iso. Cpu-detect cheat code detect 64 or 32 bit Arch.
Finally Portues will be run 64 or 32 bit depends on cpu technology.

Porteus 32 and 64 bit distro is works wery well separately. But sometimes we need to use each of them on appropriate hardware. So I look at http://www.porteus.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=710 topic but it's hard for newbie. Cheat code "from_dir" is not available so we need two partition for it. I ...
