Why? This is not a netbook with special hardware.

Use the puplet you want to. The newer ones will all work.

Only 2 points to mention:

1. Sound
To get sound working,
- first run alsa-wizard, it will detect 'snd-hda-intel', that's correct (for my lenovo)
- open /etc/modprobe.conf
- add the following to the end of the file:

Code: Select all

options snd-hda-intel model=lenovo
- save and reboot
- Sound should work now

2. Wireless
If wireless is not working, check with pprocess if 'ipw3945d' is running.
If not, start it from console and check if you could now set up your wireless.
If yes, add

Code: Select all

/sbin/ipw3945d &
to '/etc/rc.d/rc.local'

so the daemon will be autostarted at every boot.

Cheers

Maybe I should try. My Lenovo has 3 gigs of ram so I guess it has to be rather fast running Puppy.


For the moment I have Ubuntu 8.10 installed. Nice distro, but some trouble due to hibernating. Maybe this will work in Puppy?
