Assistance with VIA VX855-based system
#3
I understand -- I was just hoping that, since it's IIRC three files (the driver lib, glx.so, and something else that I've now forgotten) that it would be a simple enough matter to recompile that and add to the DVD.

I'd do it myself, but I don't know how friendly Linux Lite's boot system would be to that -- if it does a CRC of some sort (integrity check) at every LiveDVD boot, then that would eliminate the method I'm familiar with. In Puppy, I can compile the driver on any system that will at least give me a text mode interface, and once that's done it's a simple matter to fold it in permanently -- just unsquashfs the primary filesystem, drop in the requisite files, and mksquashfs -- done. I can get the DEB with the proper 'openchrome' version and files -- that's not an issue -- but I can only "fix" it on my end if I can manually edit the ISO and still have the thing willing to boot. Follow?
