Porteus-v1.0-rc1-x86 ready for testing

New features which should be implemented in Porteus; suggestions are welcome. All questions or problems with testing releases (alpha, beta, or rc) should go in their relevant thread here, rather than the Bug Reports section.

Porteus-v1.0-rc1-x86 ready for testing

Post#1 by brokenman » 09 May 2011, 14:31

The penultimate 32bit rc1 release before our official release is now ready for testing.
Please test thoroughly so we can sort out the last remaining bugs before v1. Suggestions are welcome and if you feel like taking a crack at some of the still existing bugs you will be endowed with magical powers and receive your weight in gold coin.

Kernel headers exist separately on server for now. Will include in final release.
If someone could create the nvidia driver and let me know i will put it on the server.

Repo:
http://ponce.cc/porteus/i486/testing/

Changelog:
- kernel 2.6.38.5
- userland bumped to Slackware-13.37
- KDE-3.5.12 (Trinity)
- LXDE from GIT by ponce compiled on Slack 13.37
- Kernel support for older i486 processors

Known (still existing) bugs
- Shutdown from kdm screen requires you to press enter
- wicd tray icon not loading in lxde (shouldn't be difficult to fix)
- Login as guest and su from terminal, then start mc is garbled.

Other - smaller changes:
- updated syslinux to version 4.0.4 (pxelinux.0 must be placed in /boot folder and not /boot/pxelinux.cfg)
- Cleaned up boot and porteus folders with subfolders docs & tools which contains Fixmbr.exe, UAC.exe, memtest and /dos loader.
- added function to win_start_here.hta which disables UAC (Blaze's job)
- updated linuxrc and some other stuff inside initrd (fanthom)
- fixed dhcpcd long delay for IP in rc.inet1 (thanks to crashman for bug report)
- rc.M now creates 10 loops at boot instead of one (Rava request), also moves passwd.xzm automatically to /porteus/modules when is writable (francoise suggestion)
- /usr/local/bin/man searches netowork when man page is not found in Porteus (82issa and lo-n-behold job)
- changes-time.sh strips module from *.cache files which are causing aufs hang
- activate script add one free module after insertion (it doesn't do anything when free loops are available)
- nouveau is blacklisted by default again as people are having troubles with compilation of nvidia binary driver
- USB HID is compiled into kernel (thanks to bong for bug report)
- udisk mounts FAT and NFTS without 'showexec' flag (all files are executable: needed for porteus installation scripts)
- hibernation works ok after upgrading to 2.6.38.5 (requires further testing)
- added 'Porteus' string to firefox user agent
- Added save-changes script (from console)
- Added GUI for changing save.dat size, creating new one or attempted corruption recovery
- many, many, many other changes.....

To come for rc2 or final:
1. Bundle package manager
Not a full package manager but enough to get users to put together their preferred applications from within Porteus. If anyone would like to assist me with this it would be welcome.

2. Porteus repo with 100% working modules. I would ask xzm team to begin preparing modules that adhere to the Porteus standard. Same as slackware but has /var/log/packages file mention CATEGORY:. See the existing repo on server for categories. Please have dependencies as separate modules which will be used in library category.

Please enjoy and report all bugs as usual.

Regards,
The Porteus Team

Hi,

Short report of using Porteus-v1.0-rc1-x86 on my notebook Ausus K43U:

No window start up music and a massage pop up:

"Sound server informational message:
Error while initializing the sound driver
device:default can't be opened for playback (No such file or directory)
The soundserver will continue, using the null output device."

Further observation.
1. All my rmvb files could play with kplayer without error (sound is audible).
2. mp3 is functional on kplayer but not with Beeb media player. Here is a message pop up from Beep Media player:

"Couldn't open audio
Please check that:
1.You have the correct output plugin selected.
2.No other programs is blocking the sound card.
3.Your sound card is configured properly."

3. No sound output when playing youtube on the web browser.

4. Screen resolution is perfect 1366x768
5. Atheros wifi card is working flawlessly
6. PCman file manager - the icons are not visible in the "icon view" mode (no sure whether it is a problem)

additional information for your reference:
under kmix, the Currenct mixer showing 2 devices:
1.ATI R6xx HDMI
2.Realtek ALC269VB

@toby,

Thanks for output , but you don't repect this rule.
4. Include logs and tell us commands executed. Most wanted are: /var/log/dmesg and /var/log/messages. Use pastebin.com for long and multiple files. Jayflood's 'Porteus System Info' tool can be also very helpful - you can launch it from Kmenu/Lxde menu and receive a lot of useful info about your system straight on the desktop.
Remember: nobody can help you if they don't know what's wrong, or what you did to get the error you received. Providing this information will greatly aid others in assisting you, and will allow us to diagnose your problem easier and sooner.
If someone want to see what is the topic ,and if he has a low bandsiwtch speed , the loading of this page will be very slow.
Do you understand?

Hi,

I have something to share here. For those who want to surf the website with Chinese characters, a good quality font is required.
So far, I found fireflysung.ttf is good, it gives thin and sharp without shadow for comfortable view.
Here is the download link:

Code: Select all

http://www.multiupload.com/JUOF0DN4QA
simply download and put it directly into the folder /usr/share/fonts/TTF.

I login as root for easy drag and drop the file, you don't need to restart your pc, just close your browser, and open it again, it will take effect immediately.

the file size is 14.7Mb, not sure it is too large to be included in the package for the coming new release. kindly consider it.

By the way, may I know how to make the Chinese characters to be readable in the file manager as some of my file is named in Chinese characters
as well.

Thanks in advance

regards

toby.

Patch reflect following:

1. Now in Porteus there is no /boot catalog in file system. So $ROOT var is defined to provide path to Porteus boot media;

2. Adding possiability to use pxe boot in copy2ram mode;

3. Range DHCP and IP lease of last octet changed from *.2-250 to *.50-250. As muliply static IPs allow to have in *.1-49 RANGE for other home PCs.

This change is tested by me - works OK.

Also there is attitional patch of linurc script which fix one bug of pxe booting - which prevent loading all *.xzm modules from /mnt/httpfs/ mount share

I put in in other thead

@Blaze
"4) After reboot ejecting of CD does not work."
this is probably my fault - will check linuxrc/rc.6 once again

"5) Xwindow does not start with my NVIDIA GeForce 8600 again."
@brokenman - please make sure that your cleanup script for 002-xorg removes modesetting driver, it should be in /usr/lib/xorg/drivers
Please add [Solved] to your thread title if the solution was found.

I tried the new release, using the from_iso cheatcode so I don't have to unpack the iso...

the nouveau driver is not working, but I noticed it's blacklisted for now,
so I added the rootcopy cheatcode, and copied the BLACKLIST-nouveau.conf
to the appropriate place and commented out the nouveau line.

the nouveau kernel module seems to be loaded after booting,
but it looks like xconf doesn't generate the correct Xorg.conf file
to load it

do I need to do something else to make porteus use the nouveau driver?

@brokenman - please make sure that your cleanup script for 002-xorg removes modesetting driver, it should be in /usr/lib/xorg/drivers
@fanthom : deleting the modesetting driver does indeed make the nouveau driver work

"@fanthom : deleting the modesetting driver does indeed make the nouveau driver work"
yep - that's whay i have asked brokenman for adding removal function to the cleanup sctipt.
@all
affected users can workaround this bug with an empty file in /rootcopy dir:
"touch /mnt/sdxY/porteus/rootcopy/usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/modesetting_drv.so"
Please add [Solved] to your thread title if the solution was found.
