SurfPup 5.0

Todd:

SurfPup5 works great. But you may want to look at updating the Network Wizard with patch of Sept 25th (or later?). I am not sure if that patch was intended to include Puppy version 3.01 base, but it does work as far as I have seen so far. Tested with wifi adapters Airlink AWLL3055, ZyXEL AG225H, (both using wizard) and Airlink AWLL3028 (using ndiswrapper)... all work and auto re-connects to my WPA2 TKIP wireless router from a USB flash disk boot. With the Network Wizard patch the total time to boot including auto re-connect to wifi is a little over 30 seconds. Audio, flash video, download tests all good.

It may be interesting to note that the Airlink AWLL3028 is sold by Fry's for under $8 when OVERPRICED, and is the lowest cost USB wifi adapter I have seen sold in volume so far. Also Fry's selling the 2GB Kingston 2GB USB flash drives for approx $6 OVERPRICED... both work very well with Puppy USB boot loads.

Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing !!!

Thanks,

Dpup

numbering

Some explanation about where it is based (what version of Puppy) and its version numbering system could help.

It is based on Fat Free 3.01. I had someone write me and ask for a version of Surpup for his old PC. It is funny. I work in Microsoft all day at work. We had a Microsoft laptop, but it crashed. I picked up an eeepc that was on closeout. I love the operating system (Xandros). Anyways. . .
