I suppose that copying /lib/modules/all-firmware/ipw2200_firmware-3.0/lib/firmware folder content ie those firmwares to the /lib/firmware might help. That would be my first suggestion. For some reason the firmwares are not found from where they are in Puppies. And now I should have that /all-firmwa...

No sound, however.

EDIT:
Ran the ALSA set-up, then switched from XVesa to Xorg, and sound works!

Right now, I am running Boxpup 4.31 on my own machine. I booted Boxpup 431 on the Mini and I really like the window manager. But the network wizard doesn't recognize the wireless, and none of the default available modules appear to be for Broadcom chipsets. What module are you using to get the wire...
