Any bug reports for Spup 0.4 about wifi should be for the pristine Spup. If installing Pwidgets causes some problem then you need to contact the Pwidgets maintainer. Username: 10 Jul 2010, 20:37

Reintroduced the 'acpid' package. This was missing from Spup 0.3 and 0.2. The daemon 'acpid' is started when X starts, in /root/Startup/acpi. ...so, what you could try is boot with "puppy pfix=ram,nox", then: # rm /root/Startup/acpi # xwin Username: 13 Jul 2010, 8:59
