The last line read something like PCI1410? It was part of PCMCIA through as I'm writing from PC Linux OS 2k4 pre5 now with nopcmcia and noscsci options. xmms is a problem correct? What esle can I test sound with?Getting delayed video.?? Battery meter said it was low, so I checked how low. It didn't go away immediately after being in the top corner for 15 seconds, and fumbling to plug the laptop to wall. Mouse is hard to follow at times, no trail and vanishes in the text area to write this in (yuck!).In this regard, pre4 was much better and booted without incident with PCMCIA. Why did they have to break things?? How can I test WiFi-B in preview 4?I plan to test pre5 on the Asus P2B-L Intel i440 and the Asus P3V4X Via Apollo Pro133A by the end of the weekend.

It didn't go away immediately after being in the top corner for 15 seconds, and fumbling to plug the laptop to wall. Mouse is hard to follow at times, no trail and vanishes in the text area to write this in (yuck!).Try testing with livecd xres= and xbbp=16. Use the native resolution for your laptop for xres, eg. xres-1024x768In this regard, pre4 was much better and booted without incident with PCMCIA. Why did they have to break things?? How can I test WiFi-B in preview 4?Part of the problem is that a lot of work in the last few weeks went into adjusing mklivecd so that it could be authored and run with kernel 2.6. Unfortunately that seems to have caused some things to get a bit rough around the edges for kernel 2.4 and PV5. The good news is that kernel 2.6 support is now out of alpha with the tmb 10mdk kernel. The bad/good news is that the code was not forked to accomplish this. Preview 5 has been held up several times to fix known problems. It had however now reached the point that a wider test was badly needed. hwdetect in particular had LOTS of changes.:DWiFi should now work out of the box. The wlan drivers were upgraded for PV5.Ooops. Just re-rereading this. Your problem is getting Pcmcia working after boot. I know that it can be done, but I need to check the details.I plan to test pre5 on the Asus P2B-L Intel i440 and the Asus P3V4X Via Apollo Pro133A by the end of the weekend. Maybe a HD install??? :DTx for the info tecky. Check the documentation for a hard disk install howto. If you don't see it at first, try Shift-Refresh.

pc-tecky Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 Please post full details of your systems on the volunteer thread. Please include a lspcidrake for each system.Will do. Working on that next.Boot options nopcmia is understood. Not sure why you needed noscsi on notebook.xmms should work. Please post a soundchk.sh report for your system. Most likely problem is muted volumes. It will show on the soundchk report. Run aumix, adjust volumes, and retest audio.Eliminating all possibilities for hanging problem. Sound came though on shutdown. Is sound mute as default? Xmms play button didn't want to work. Try testing with livecd xres= and xbbp=16. Use the native resolution for your laptop for xres, eg. xres-1024x768I thought xres=1024x768 and xbbp=16 were default. 1024x768 is native to the laptop, or something like that. Will take another gander.hwdetect in particular had LOTS of changes. That explains a lot of things. WiFi should now work out of the box. The wlan drivers were upgraded for PV5.Ooops. Just re-rereading this. Your problem is getting Pcmcia working after boot. I know that it can be done, but I need to check the details. LOL... Don't get to fazzled.

Tx Zox:If you could report the first couple of errors it would help a lot in troubleshooting. The rest of the errors are probably redundant or caused by the initial errors.Worth trying the virus guard. Though it should not be causing problems with a Live CD. No writes to the HD with the exception of the swap file. Well maybe file system checks on mount. Try "livecd fstab=ro". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruno Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 Hi Owyn On your request: the /etc/ld.so.conf's . . . . have to say they look really good on first sight. Test System, HD install: [bruno@uranus bruno]$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/lib/qt3/lib /usr/lib/ati/lib /usr/lib/nvidia/lib /usr/lib/xfree/lib Test System, Live: [guest@uranus guest]$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/lib/qt3/lib /usr/lib/ati/lib /usr/lib/nvidia/lib /usr/lib/xfree/lib Main System, Live: [guest@jupiter guest]$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/lib/qt3/lib /usr/lib/ati/lib /usr/lib/nvidia/lib I checked the last one twice because it has no "/usr/lib/xfree/lib" as path to the libs . . but then that one does actually use the "/usr/lib/nvidia/lib" and the others don't . . Hope I did miss anything else . . this thread is pretty hectic . . Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owyn Posted January 23, 2004 Author Share Posted January 23, 2004 Tx Bruno.They are actually all wrong for one reason or another. It just happens that sometimes two (or three) wrongs will make a right.In theory there should be only one GLX lib for a system. In practice, well .... It was a long night last night, and it looks like a longer weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have /sbin/ldconfig added to rc.sysinit to make sure that I can recover from bad caches. Seen more black screens at boot than I want to remember. Using boot to Mdk92 to repair PCLos.
