Lenny-LXDE-1.3 100mb free

Post by quotaholic »

Hey everyone. Hope the past holiday treated everyone well. I am living in a new location and working a new job that has me super busy now. Haven't had much time to put to things here. I didnt really do much for T-day so I worked on my DT366 some. I installed the Sid image I made a while ago and did some polishing.

Thanks to Matt and his release of Puppy I learned of acpitool. Great for suspending to ram. I put this and some scripting for hard buttons on the sid image. Removed ganyremote and its supporting packages. Instaqlled acpitool and kept Blueman bluetooth manager and Opera web browser as well as the standard wicd network manager. Wicd is great as it re establishes your wifi after waking from suspend. I will link this image in another post later tonight.

The reason for this post is a minimal lenny that I just finished. This is stock debian 5 with LXDE window manager and Opera web browser. Besides that acpitool and wicd are installed and thats about it. This image has 101 MB free. This one os pretty quick on its feet. No audio or bluetooth have been installed on this one. LXDE comes with gpicview and leafpad as additional applications. Hard buttons are scripted to toggle the keyboard, open the home folder in pcman file manager, open Opera web browser, and the last hard button is scripted as the return key. Press the power button once and your DT will suspend. See the FAQ for install instructions.

MD5 is in the archive.

Wireless WiFi after suspend

Post by volkswagner »

Do you have wireless working after suspend?  Using the original Cisco Airo 350, I can't get wifi backup after suspend.  Not even restarting networking, nor wicd helps.  I have to restart the tablet.  I even tried adding acpi-tools, which did not help.  I'll suspect I need to unload the module prior to suspend, I am just how.

I see matt had a fix for puppy, but I don't know if this will work on Debian?

Yes both the atheros g cisco card I use and the ambicom compact flash wifi card (DT360) do work out of suspend as long as wicd is installed. I do remember reading about Matts fix but cant recall what he did. I think that the LinuxMCE image has a similar fix as well. I cant help but remember the first few images I made when eth1 was the next in line because I didnt erase the /etc/udev/wireless.rules file. Wonder if the same thing or something close is happening?

I'll have a look at udev.

I seem to have different log activity from your original...Not sure if it is just the network card or other.

Certainly looks like it. I see the "ath5k" driver mentions on the first log. This makes sense as the Cisco card I have is atheros based and pulls the ath5k driver. From memory the stock cisco card uses airo_cs or something similar.

Possibly the no modules getting linked in the second link was due to a /etc/modules mismatch to the actual hardware. Possibly if you were to erase the udev wireless rules as well as remove the ath5k mentions in /etc/modules things may go better. I really am guessing though. Possibly since the vendor was he same (similar mac?) the ath5k stayed but dropped out on wake.

If you modprobe the driver for the stock cisco hardware what comes back?
