From website :
Prey is a cross-platform (Android, Linux, iOS, Mac OS X, and Windows desktop) anti-theft tracking software that, when installed and activated on a supported device, makes it possible to remotely locate, lock, wipe and recover it, if it’s stolen or missing. And the best part is, it’s free software, with the source code hosted on GitHub.

To download a .deb file for your Puppy based on Ubuntu : https://preyproject.com/download

Some dependencies are to be installed. More information is provided here : http://linuxbsdos.com/2015/03/07/how-to ... mint-17-1/

A word of caution : if your laptop gets stolen, and you have located it in your locality, police officers will help you recover your stolen laptop. Violence can erupts if you try a recovery by yourself.
