DingoPlus
DingoPlus is a straight-forward remaster of Dingo customised for the Asus Eeepc!
http://www.puppylinux.org/downloads/puplets/dingoplus
It includes plenty of extra packages as well as all of the required
Eeepc drivers. The wireless works straight out of the box, although you
will have to load the Atl2 module if you want to use the wired
ethernet. The brightness and wireless function keys work, but the
volume and mute functions keys don't, but you can control the volume
using the icon on the taskbar and I have installed xbindkeys if you
want to set them up. Significant additions include Open Office, Remote
Desktop Client and Python/PyGtk programming facilities. For a full list
of packages see the list below. I have not changed the look of Dingo as
I think it looks great already and I do not want to take credit away
from the original developers by rebranding it. It contains all of the
applications I need at work and home, it will run in the RAM
comfortably on any computer with 512Mb RAM and it will boot from USB
flash drives, SD cards and hard drives.
It has to be downloaded as a ZIP file as the file server I am using
does not allow the transfer of .iso images. Inside the ZIP file you
will find the .iso image, the md5sum, a package list and a screenshot.
The md5sum is for the .iso image not the ZIP file! I do not have any
way of tracking how many times DingoPlus is downloaded as yet - so I
would appreciate it is you could send an e-mail to tony.sales@rncb.ac.uk with the word 'dingoplus ' as the subject along with any positive and/or negative feedback if you download it.
I am now working on a DingoPlusPlus edition which will be 512mb and contain plenty of games!
