I want to copy and paste this information into a USB thumbdrive to help me to troubleshoot the wireless on a different linux installat...

Yep, that did it.

You are in the US? Maybe someone has one lying about and can mail it to you? That would be a nice gesture . . . . . . or try http://www.freecycle.org/ Assuming you have a USB port, the Netgear WN111 v2 "just worked" with my computer. I'm seeing them for $10 to $15: http://www.google.com/s...

Hello, I have lucid puppy 5.20. I'm trying to remote desktop into a Windows machine, but can't find an app to do it. I see rdesktop mentioned, but it doesn't appear to be installed on my machine. I don't see it in the list of packages that are available to be installed. Where do I go to get it? -Eric

I had already done a full install, but I followed the instructions (more or less) posted near the top of this thread. In the...

Hello, I'm trying to vpn to my work network with puppy. I've been able to do this with windows xp and vista. I used the gpptp pptp vpn client.

OK, I guess, I can repartition and reinstall puppy like recommended on: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=29653 Just to confirm, my c: drive is ntfs, grub can be installed in the mbr of an ntfs drive, right? It looks like it can only be installed to a thumb drive that's fat 16. -Eric

The first distro I tried was tiny me, which was pretty nice, but appeared would require a lot of work to support my wireless network card. I read s...
