so i gots a quick little wifi question for some reason turbo refuses to see my wireless card. i have tried all of the modules that say atheros and i aslo have tried using ndiswrapper on one of the xp drivers from asus but none of these approaches have worked and i didnt really see any other mention of it in this thread. i have a asus eee 1005hab

ok after some more research i found that on pupeee the module in use is the ath9k for ahteros 802.11n wireless lan devices. now when i looked through the available modules on turbopup the only one was the ath5k module and that didnt work at all so how exactly would i go about doing this? should i find the ath9k module and install with modprobe (if that is the case can someone give me a dl ink) or is it easier then that because i saw madwifi in the /lib/modules folder and i remember in ubuntu one of the workarounds involved that in some way. i apologize if my questions are kinda noob like but i am really new to linux and still trying to find my sea legs

Chris, not treading on toes, but rerwin's speciality is 3G card functionality

Hi ttuuxxx,

thanks again for the «dillo» version of turbopup!

I Cannot print ...

on a fresh pup_save ( + seamonkey-libs-tiny--1.1.2.pet + SaveFlash.pet added see page 29)
as mentionned on last post page29, I could not add a printer through the CUPS Manage printing menu nor through the cups server (enter http://localhost.631/admin/ in dillo) : clicking on «Add Printer» pops up a «Save Link as» dialog box....(?? what for ?).

I then manually tried to add a printer (i.e. the CUPS-PDF.ppd one located in /etc/cups/ppd) using a command line:

Unbelievable! This thread has exceeded 100,000 views

This proves that Turbopup Xtreme is still 'xtremely' popular

Who knows, maybe we'll get a TP 1.1 upgrade / Service Pack in the future

Never been a fan of this one, but felt a duty to try it again with Dillo. As a live CD, of course, it isn't 'turbo' anything - it doesn't have the well-documented turbo-boot. After all this time, it is unacceptable that the initial boot delay hasn't been fixed to a more reasonable value. With this version, although I am a great fan of Dillo, the only official version of Firefox in the repository is the old chesnut Bon Echo 2 and Opera, the fastest browser on Earth doesn't put in an appearance. No Flash in 2010 is not acceptable. Sorry, there are other, smaller, faster and better conceived offerings. If John's excellent, but ageing MeanPup isn't to your liking, try one of gray's derivatives, for example; Xin looks promising, too - if only I could get it to boot!

Oh yes, the final ignominy, it doesn't shut down on SiS, and doubtless all those other chipsets, despite BK having fixed this in most of the latest Quirkies. I deleted it.

Hi,

I have to say that I love the work you have done. The Turbopup derivitive has a much better appeal than the original in the long term I believe.

I think it's time for a Sourceforge or a Launchpad page. This project should be expanded.

Thanks for your work,
Will
