after loading module uvc the camera works in my eee701
however is not possible to disable wifi via hotkeys even after loading asus-acpi module and loaded acpid.

seamonkey language

Hello
i tried to change the language of seamonkey by installing the language pack but it didn't have any effect.
I looked in every corner of the settings to see if was possible to change language with no luck...maybe in the stripped down version of seamonkey is not possible?

i really wish there could be a centralized website where users can fetch pet packages... It is really time consuming to search in the forums for packages.. Most of the time i spend like 10 minutes to find a package to install, take amsn, i had to scroll 10 messages before i got the link to install.....

hello
here is already 35°C and the eeepc is performing fine..
yes it is hot to touch but far less than my other full size laptop..

hi i totally agree with you
i will install in the internal SSD drive only when the "flash writing" patter could be applied to it too..
I wouldn't risk treating a SSD like a normal hdd

Which Puppy is best for Asus eeePc-4G?

Hello
i am gonna install puppy on my new eeepc.
I am wondering which version is recommended to use (i saw pupee but based on 3.X means that pidgin needs to be upgraded, seamonkey too, and such)..
Any idea which one could i use?
thanks
