Assistance with VIA VX855-based system

Yes, that is the package -- now, how do I apply it?

since you cannot get into a graphical desktop.

ctl+alt+f1

should give you a terminal prompt.

hopefully you downloaded the right 32 bit deb to usb and used your puppy iso to throw that .deb in /home/<username>

to run the install

Code:

sudo dpkg -i <name of openchrome 32 bit .deb goes here>

It should show it installing. You only need the first few letters for openchrome .deb typed in. Then hit tab key to autocomplete.
Reboot when done.
On my savage and via computers. I gave up on savage and openchrome and just rolled with vesa.
I found the newer xorg does not play nice with these graphics chips.

PS. Murga has more worldwide members. Plus members period. Plus is a older forum than this one.
Kinda comparing small town vs big city when it comes to support.
I was also told to take into consideration the user base here.
Windows refugees.
Which means they have no idea on supporting linux.
Only old hands like me.
I do not come here every day.
My boxes need no phone in support.
