MU, I downloaded your ISO, and it worked great! If all the modules were compiled, we would have an SMP Puppy!

Anyways, I added a hardinfo_report so we all can see the second core detected. (hardinfo_report2 is from regular Puppy 4.1)

PS: It seemed very fast.

I was using my PS/2 keyboard, for the last couple days, so today I tried the USB one, and everything is working fine.

BTW: I love my USB keyboards, $10 with a mouse, solid HP multimedia keyboard.

I'm ready.

Well you both seem to be having a fun disagreement. I ran DCL 2008, thats Puppy 3.01 with XFCE on a P200MMX with 96MB RAM, and opened firefox 2.0.11 with no swap. Although the CPU didn't have speed the RAM was fine. I'd tell anyone that 128MB was enough for IM and the Web, But anything more and 256 ...

I suppose my opinion isn't the most important. I haven't been around for a couple months, because I has trying other Linux Distros, to expand my knowledge, but I'm back again, and the minute 4.1 comes out, I'll be installing it, and you can expect a DCL 2009 in early 2009. I think that any project t...

EEE Wifi Driver

I have a question about the EEE wifi driver. I'm asking because I make the puplet DCL, so say in DCL 2009, I include the patch so it will work on my EEE, will some devices not work because they want the stock ath_pci driver?
