List of Multi-Core Puppies Wiki... for Easy Reference

#1 Post by Eathray »

Okay all,

I thought it would be a good idea to have an easy reference for puppies that can utilize multi-core processors, 'case that's the way computers are going. I said so on Aitch's post and started a list, and darkcity suggested I do a wiki. Alright... here it is:

http://multi-core-puppies.wikispaces.com/

If you know of Puppies not on the list, please let me know, with a link, and I'll try to maintain it. I have a few more to add I am aware of, but there will be some I'm not aware of to be sure.

Most standard puppies since 4.31 (I think) have the SMP kernel option enabled as far as I know.

p310don,

My dual-core being pretty recent to me, I had to kind of hunt to confirm some Puppies for SMP. I hope this wiki will be an easy reference for newbees who may not know the first thing about Puppy Linux, but know they have a multi-core and want to give Puppy a try. Also, I've been finding some pretty neat derivitives that I didn't know existed, and I've been using Puppy for quite a while now (since a 2.14 I tried maybe 4 years ago). Some other Puppy users may find something interesting to them they weren't aware of... such as SnowPuppy, which I just discovered the other day.

Anyway, I hope it will be useful information to some people.

Hi Earthray,

I love the page ; -) but what I meant was how about adding a page to

you can get a login from Raffy

added link to your page here-
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/PuppyVersionIndex

no worries if you want to do your own thing 8)

Excellent resource.

Consider adding: Slacko 5.3.3 and Lighthouse 64 5.14.2

Thanks,
Jim

Thanks, Jim

Slacko is on my list of things to add, but I haven't tried it out yet. I will soon.

Lighthouse is up and the link runs to the Lighthouse home page, so theoretically, people should be able to find the latest(??) as well as old... That was my thought about multiple versions of one gig. Bad idea? Input welcome :?

Thanks again,

Eathray
