eeepc 901 runnning puppy

04Nov2008 

well it's taken me over a fortnight to get this eeepc 901 running on puppy.

Actually i got it running on puppy quite quickly, but it was the wifi network that held me back.

I tried eeetiger, pupeee, dingoplus, dingo(4.1) followed all the threads I could find.

maybe it was just me being so linux ignorant??? I am still a linux noob

But I noticed today 4.1.1 was out with a new improved network wizard, and it worked on first install, no tweaking necesary.

I am now typing this from my eee pc.

puppy is so much better than the xandros it came with (my opinion)

I'm not much of a LINUX user but have often pulled out the puppy USB stick for fault finding or retrieving data from broken window systems.over thee last couple of years.

Now I just have to get minicom and the USB serial adaptor functioning and this will be perfect for work. (I haven't attempted yet)

thanks to all on the puppy forums for help, I haven't asked any questions because there was always someone else with the same issues.)
