Struggled for another hour with this, getting nowhere. I understand the Wacom driver is now in the Linux kernel, whereas in my quickset version it was a driver? Did they leave out us folks with old Tablet computers whose Wacom devices are actually serial? If the latest Wacom code, wherever it reside...

Hi, I've been using Lucid Puppy Quickset with much joy on this Wacom touch screen enabled laptop. Wacom-0.10.8_xorg_driver and my partial xorg.conf follows below. In my Slacko edition, I've tried this same xorg.conf with a few of the pets listed in this thread, nothing I do seems to bring joy in res...

Hi Joe: When I talk to you I keep forgetting to thank you for the disk (Puppy) you made for me. It's great. I use it all the time because it's fast and I can check both of my e-mail accounts and the internet. Dad He's within 4 months of being 90 years old. The poor guy was literally playing solitair...

Doing a full bootable 5.1 quickset install on a 8G USB stick... In order to save the setup, I get SFS files size choices out to 1.3G. I want to save the setup but use the entire 8G, just like you might on an 8G HD. I swear I once saw a "fill entire space" option, but not this time. I also ...

At my work, on my corporate issued HP laptop "workstation", I wanted to try the "smoothboard" software (www.smoothboard.net). I ordered up a used Wii controller and a cheapo IR pointer pen on ebay and they were delivered in blazing time. Of course, this laptop had its bluetooth d...

An opinion from random user X... I came to realize Puppy as an alternative OS, because my system's processing capability could no longer handle the bloat of Windows XP...Actually, the system could handle it eventually; it was *I* that wanted something that worked better! I felt the gist of Puppy was...

Tubby, Thanks so much for the MaJiC CoDe! "...remove the two hashes at the front of these lines #echo "Starting PCMCIA services:" #pcmcia-socket-startup" What does this do? Why is it different in these 5.1.1 pups? I'm on line with lupq, 5.1.1 !! It SURVIVES a reboot !! WooHoo!! D...

Hello, I was informed that this may be better thread to voice my issue. Running on Toshiba 3500, when I use pup 4.3.1 my embedded wireless interface is found immediately. Driver used is "orinoco_cs". Always work after initial setup and remain absolutely stable through many machine power cy...

Something changed between 4.3.1 and 5.1.1, in how the wireless cards are detected. In 4.3.1, it detects and installs "orinoco_cs" right away and remains SOLID thereafter through multiple reboots. In 5.1.1, it says "no network interfaces found". Even when I manually load the orino...

Hello, Maybe this is bad practice, but I'm getting desperate to make my system operational. I got Wacom working in lupq, 5.1.1. But because of some unrelated issue, the wireless will not setup. It was suggested that I try a 4.3.1 system. Wireless works great; but I cant get the Wacom working. Appare...

Using toshiba 3500, pup 4.3.1 loads "orinoco_cs" automatically, wireless is SOLID afterward. Pup 5.1.1 - cant find card, doesnt load orinoco_cs automatically. When I load it manually and IF I get my card recognized and setup - next boot it's gone, just like your experience. I guess no one ...

I'm a bit disappointed. Maybe easy for you? But I used the same .pet as before, with the 5.1.1. I changed the xorg.conf to: [below] and the pen no longer works. Please help, as I'm lost at this point. Thanks and best regards, Joe #Special base config file used in Puppy Linux. # *********************...

Thanks so much for the .pet and assistance. All I did was install the .pet and make the appropriate additions to the xorg.conf file. My 3500 system had hardware issues which many of these do. Fixing it involved removing the screen bezel, the screen and wiggling / jiggling these small flat ribbon cab...

I'm using lupq because I got the Wacom tablet working on my Toshiba 3500 with this distro. However, as with lupo 5.1.1, my on board wireless doesnt load. If it does, it's sporatic at best - I have got on at times - but next boot? Gotta go through the whole thing again. Last time, even when I load th...

I'm stuck on the "xxd" command again. If I could get this to run, I could see if my wacom is spitting out data consistently versus location on the screen. My best friend Mr bash only says "bash: xxd: command not found" The guys over at the Wacom Linux suggest using xxd like it's ...

I installed lupq, the suggested .pet and made the corresponding changes to the xorg.conf file to enable the Wacom. It works! ...Sort of... Cursor tracking to the pen is great in some small areas of the screen, abysmal in others. It always goes to all parts of the screen...eventually. Some coordinate...

I really like my Puppy 5.1.1 Linux! However I want to run it on a Toshiba 3500 AND make use of the Wacom pen based touch screen part of this tablet PC. Now, I have read through many topics, links on the subject and the process seems like veritable HELL for someone at the level of editing an XORG sta...
