Same issue as renebrakus.
Put the intel xzm module in the module folder as you said. It just keeps reloading splash screen like it's hitting some kind of loop.

Re: Porteus Kiosk Edition v2.0.5 feedback
I experienced the same thing when putting the print module in the modules folder, but assumed it was overwriting some important file and didn't have time to check it out. Firefox would just flash and close in a loop.
How do i become super user?

@renebrakus, deakon
tested my instruction and booted without problems (but in Vbox). to avoid confusion i have created testing ISOs with old and new intel driver kept in /rootcopy. please give them a shot and report which one worked (if any):

thanks

Re: Porteus Kiosk Edition v2.0.5 feedback
@renebrakus, deakon
once again - thanks a lot for testing.
i would love to get the log files and check wft is wrong with last intel drivers on old hardware (or maybe it's Kiosk fault itself?) so i have a vary last request:
please dowload and install 32bit 2.1-rc2 porteus standard edition (kiosk-2.0.5 userland is based on it), could be this:
http://dl.porteus.org/i486/testing/Port ... 2-i486.iso
then copy /rootcopy content from porteus-kiosk-2.0.5-intel_new.iso to it. this way you'll be testing latest xf86-video-intel-2.21.12 driver against your hardware.
please boot to text mode -> login as root -> type 'startx'
if you get a looping failure then press ctrl+alt+backspace (or ctrl+alt+F1 to switch to virtual terminal 1 and then 'ctrl+c') to kill Xorg.
once you do it, please save/var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/dmesg on the usb and then switch to other (working) OS/hardware and upload them to pastebin.com and link here for a review.
if you do not get a looping failure then please generate full 'porteus system info' report and also upload to pastebin.com so i will know what is your exac hardware specification (and maybe search google for a solution).
thanks

Re: Porteus Kiosk Edition v2.0.5 feedback
List my problem as solved. I took the intel_drv file from version 2.0.4 and did what you suggested putting it into 2.0.5. I'm swamped for a few days. But I'll get back to testing like you asked soon.
Re: Porteus Kiosk Edition v2.0.5 feedback
First of all, fanthom thanx for pxe, I was waiting for it.
But in v2.0.5 I faced out with one problem.
For kiosk v2.0.4 I used the tip "use kernel from 32bit standard edition (/boot/syslinux/vmlinuz and /porteus/base/000-kernel.xzm)" for automounting usb sticks with the file systems: fat and ntfs.
If I do the same tip for v2.0.5 and trying to boot via pxe I am getting the error:
grep: /lib/modules/3.9.4-porteus/modules.alias: No such file or directory
find: /lib/modules/3.9.4-porteus/kernel/driver/net: No such file or directory
udhcpc: iosctl 0x8933 failed: No such device
Erro: Porteus data not found.
Startup cannot continue.
I used vmlinuz from Porteus 2.1 RC2.
Pxe for Porteus Kiosk Edition 2.0.5 without changing the kernel is working fine.

Re: Porteus Kiosk Edition v2.0.5 feedback
hi kir4,
if you are swapping kernel then you need to update kernel drivers inside initrdpxe.xz which is downloaded by the wizard.
