Puppy Linux 6.0.5 Tahrpup Does Not Detect SD Card.
Hello, everybody. I have a good 2012 ASUS notebook. Currently plugged into the SD Card slot on the side is a 128GB SD Card. This is where I keep movies and some other stuff so it doesn't take up space in the ASUS "C" and "D" drives themselves. The ASUS is a Dual Operating System ...

Oui: Unless that distro uses the 3.2 kernel, it would make little difference in my case, I'm afraid. Nic007: LICK simply installs Puppy Linux directly on one's hard drive. You switch on the laptop after that you can choose between Windows or Puppy Linux. Given how well overall it works, and if the e...

I've attempted to install the distro in question on the 256MB 2002 Dell laptop- all I get is a black screen, and with help from the ASUS so I'm not clicking blindly have been unable to solve this problem. Note that when powering off you get the barking sound so it is there. Overall the point is this...

As the owner of a 2001 Sony VAIO this interests me. Basics are: 256MB RAM (maximum), 800MHz Pentium 3 Processor, 1024h x 768v resolution, Intel Integrated chip, no SSE2 instructions (Pentium 3), obviously an antique. USB is 1.0, so no USB stick loading here. So far the most recent distro that works ...

I've used LICK on the 2012 Windows 8 ASUS, 2001 Sony VAIO XP Home Edition, and the early 2000s XP Home Edition Dell. It has given new life to those two antiques, especially for safe online activity (Puppy Linux 5.2.5 Lucid). However, be aware that certain distros of Puppy Linux may not work on certa...

How to run Undertale (RPG) in Puppy 5.2.5?
I'm afraid I don't understand what is being said here- not all of it. https://wiki.dotslashplay.it/en/games/undertale Since trying to install GOG Linux "Undertale" never works- once past the EULA page the screen goes black even after eleven hours and the Sony must be manually shut off- and...

Changing the kernel has been mentioned before, and it seems interesting. But this is very important: can a kernel like, say, 3.2 work with something like Lucid 5.2.5? And more importantly will that demand more power than kernel 2.6? If it does then that isn't an option with that ancient hardware. If...

Re: More information needed
Hi GusCE6, We'll need more information. Getting any hardware to work requires that 'all stars align'. The operating system has to provide both firmware and the drivers needed to read and manage the hardware. Firmware is 'agnostic': that is regardless of how it is created, so long as it is in a form...

O.K... First, I just wish Dell had sent it to me. Even as a cheap consolation prize in a goofy contest would have been nicer than the actual circumstances. This has NOT been a very good decade. The Panda Wireless stub is Model PAU03 (very small print). When it is plugged in it is detected under &quo...

How to use Panda PAU03 USB wifi in Three-Headed Dog?
Hello, everyone. Recently, under some truly weird conditions I ended up with an old DELL Windows XP laptop. In a nutshell it does not have wifi ability so I tried the Panda wireless USB stick. The included driver works in XP mode. That base is covered. The problem is that Puppy Linux 5.2.5 Lucid can...

Symlinks and Files
I decided to try a long shot with the game "Foxtail," Linux version. The game requires GLIBC 2.27, but apparently GLIBC 2.20 is the highest version that Puppy Linux 5.2.5 Lucid can handle. The old laptop CANNOT handle 5.7.0 Precise. So I run the game through the command window. It complain...
