It's weird. I got Compiz running just fine in Ubuntu Eee, but I tried many puplets with compiz and none of them worked with my Asus Eee 900A. Not sure what the deal is.

Hmmm... :( WNOP worked fine for my 701 eeepc, out of the box. There is a treasure trove of information for setting up Puppy over here which I found helpful.

There are a lot of idiosyncracies in any notebook computer. You may find more information which is helpful to you by searching the box in the upper right corner of http://www.puppylinux.org for "eeepc"

Good luck.

Hi guys, take a look at Ripple, based around compiz-fusion and cairo-dock, with specific support for the eeepc. Currently the 701 and 900 series are supported, and we're building support for the later eeepc models. It's looking like we have to update the xorg package...

Thank you for such an informative post here. I am new to Linux and have been able to figure out (by reading these posts) how to run Puppy 4.1.2 with Gnome, Fusion, and Opera. I just need to add a few more programs and everything should be good here.

Anyway, thanks again for all the great tips!!!
