The good, the bad and the ugly SpaceFm
new? cooking -> dd to usb -> boot without prob - full resolution
still no ide-hd or ide-cd/dvd-rom-drive--usb-flash OK.
(MoBo ecs k7s5a chipset sis 735).this is working in 4.0
about sound
sound is working after:
root@slitaz:/# alsactl init
Found hardware: "ICH" "Realtek ALC100,100P rev 38" "AC97a:414c4326" "0x1019" "0x0a14"
Hardware is initialized using a generic method
root@slitaz:/#
and adjusting the Sliders in alsamixer.
the disappearing mouse pointer (if you don't move the mouse(eg in alsaplayer)) is annoying.
SpaceFm:
File -> terminal..does nothing; File -> root Terminal-> ask for Pw-> does nothing
File-> Root Window-> ask for Pw-> work 1 out of 10 tries.(*#!"%&#*).I t seems that I only get a root-window in a root-permission-folder.
Another example:
In a root-window I cut out a firmware-file and wanted to paste it in a normal window (tux-folder)
result:Permission denied WTF
I had to go to: rightclick File-> edit-> move to-> location->choose the location->Ok
Please get rid of that damn thing!
Ok,back to Hw:
Detected PCI devices Kernel modules:
! Missing module : agpgart_sis
For our wifi users:
The Atheros 9271 chipset, which worked with the ar9271.fw -file now needs the htc_9271.fw file to work.

when closing spacefm as user (tux), the following error message occurs:
Error: Unable to save session file. Do you want to exit without saving?
( Permission denied )
... why do you guys stay with spacefm? it's a question of less memory?
Offline
I think spacefm has no config until now - as soon as I have time I will look at the config of cooking - spacefm is really cool, when well configured and for security reasons much better than pcmanfm. I use it since September and I am a fan of spacefm.
The only problem is, that it does not like sh - it wants bash for plugins.... but maybe I can convince Ignorantguru.....
@sixofeight can you post the output of fdisk - l

@kultex
not much to see:

What about the missing agpgart module?
necrophcodr (on top of this page) is missing the agpgart_intel
and my box is missing the agpgart_sis
--------------------------------------------
EDIT:
rereading Ceels post and his iso is 22/02/2014 ??,so I got
an older one today morning ??

it seems, that only the modules built in the kernel are loaded
@sixofeight - can you post the output of "lsmod" - normal is something like this:

here it is

regarding the agpgart_sis module
if you look in lsmod - it seems that the module in agpgart is renamed to sis_agp
check how it is called in 4.0
if it is like this, this has to be changed in tazhw
and regarding to your harddisk - it may be a problem of new kernel
I need also dmesg and lsmod from 4.0 and lspci
but I have no time before the weekend to deal with it
Offline
@kultex
here they are
note:I'm booting Sz4 from a customized live-Cd, my internal Hdd is only
storage.(ext2).
Offline
ok - the sis-ide drivers are not in the kernel - we have to add
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SIS5513=m
I will check next weekend, if we are missing some other drivers
and can you check on 4.0 if tazhw is also telling about missing agpgart_sis
Offline
Hi kultex
First of all thank you that you have found the error.
and no, no missing agpgart_sis module in 4.0 (tazhw)
-----------------------------------------------------
not to confuse you and maybe completely irrelevant
could it be that it is named "agpgart-sis" in 4.0 ?
(found in the dmesg-file)
-----------------------------------------------------
again,many thanks...I can hardly wait till next release.
Offline
it is not irrelevant - but it is the same also in cooking - agpgart-sis is done in both versions by udev
so I have no ideay, why tazhw is crying in cooking....
Offline
@mojo,
NTFS signature is missing --> change ntfs-3g to #ntfs-3g
Thanks mojo; it works correctly now.

@ sixofeight
can you try new rolling, if your harddrive is now available? pata_sis.ko.xz was added to modules list

I'm still in trouble with SpaceFm:
boot from usb (live mode)-> remove usb->empty folder /media/SliTaz core-4in1
I can't delete that folder (owner tux) not as tux and not as root.
also all the "do it as root" rightclick options won't work.They are asking
for the PW but doing nothing.

@sixofeight
the ! Missing module : agpgart_sis will not disapear, as long as somedody looks into tazhw - at the moment i have no time. But it is no problem, because agpgart_sis is loaded by udev, so the error is only, that tazhw is reporting this non existing error...
the spacefm troubles -
you should eject the stick before you remove the stick
and all the "do it as root" options are not working, because of spacefm needs bash - I think, when you install bash, it will work (did not test it) - my solution is to add a spacefm root desktopentry in /usr/share/applications - it is attached - just remove the .txt

It seems that progress is being made, at least for me..;-)

ERROR DURING COMPILING KERNEL
Make returns the following error when compiling the kernel:
[c]
make[2]: *** [drivers/block/loop.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/block] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2[/c]
Compiling modules is OK; it seems that all the missing modules are built and installed. I'm going to do a new iso for Cooking so I'll be able to connect to the internet and can continue to test cooking.

Hi,
3 QUESTIONS
[*]Can I consider, running Cooking, that after an update the system is same that Rolling?
[*]Would it be possible with next Rolling/Cooking to have a graphical utility that just would show the state of the memory: total/free/used Mem/Swap in real time (like Info System in stable)? This would be very usefull (for me :-) ) when working on a system with few RAM.
[*]Running as well as Cooking than Rolling, can someone explain me why the Task Manager indicates more free memory than the [c]free[/c] command?
Thanks
[attachment=28385,1350]
Offline
@Ceel
I'm pretty sure the Task Manager reports the same as the free command. But look for the +/- buffers selection, not the 'Mem' selection.
Offline
@ceel
In the task Manager click view > and uncheck "Show memory used by cache as free"
then you will see the same values as with free -m
Offline
@sixofeight
Yes, you're right. Thanks.

Hi, I'm really new here and not sure if my experience is of use to you.
I've now got a real fast robust OS based on the 2012 stable core flavor.
But just spent a few days with the latest rolling and cooking flavors.
Laptop is Aspire 7520 TK-55 dual core, geforce 7000 with 4Gb ram (used at 32bit).
With the latest flavors I could boot to desktop using the nomodeset code and was experiencing the usual nouveau screen problem of only 1/4 of the screen being used without nomodeset as boot option. I've been through this before with other distro's but unfortunately it's the 1st time I've not been able to fix it.
I could get wireless networking to work but not the usual way that I do by editing network.conf and restarting network.sh .... it wouldn't work until I'd started it through the new tazpanel.
With what I could get working eg. gparted and other system tools ... I noticed an impressive improvement in speed.
But a complete fail at getting flashplayer installed and a lot of trouble downloading from repository meant that I reluctantly returned to the 2012 version.
I hope this info is maybe helpful ... I'm not sure what info is valuable to you but I am very inspired by slitaz and look forward to future developments.
Thanks for your hard work ...
