Ok, so this is for reference purposes, for others reading this post. OpenVPN is available for install in BionicPup64. I installed that, and it was possible to get it going after I went through the info on ExpressVPN's homepage about manual setup. Besides downloading a config file for the specific ...

Have you've signed up for a plan or is this a supposition? https://www.expressvpn.com/support/vpn-setup/manual-config-for-linux-with-openvpn/#download I am already signed up for a plan. Whether I can use Gpptp is a supposition. Alternatively, ExpressVPN has .deb installers, I just don’t know if t ...

Getting ExpressVPN to work with latest BionicPup64. (Solved)
Trying to figure out a way to get ExpressVPN to work with BionicPup64. I assume the prefered way is to use Gpptp VPN, however I am completely clueless as to how to configure Gpptp VPN so that it will work.

I have two, but I seem to be having difficulty getting one to load as default at boot. The profile has to be activated manually every boot and auto dhcp ...

How to use Broadcom BCM43228 in Bionic64? (Solved)
Yesterday , I was trying to get my Broadcom wireless card to work with Slacko64 6.3.2, with no solution. Today, I am trying to solve the same problem with BionicPup64 8.0, as advised. I have downloaded and installed the latest broadcom_sta with pkg. It reported that the .pet package had been ...

Hmmm. Still nothing at all after having tried your suggestions. I am going to give BionicPup64 a try, as you suggested, as I want to give Puppy Linux a complete going through now. Thanks for your help, and for your suggestion about Absolute Linux. I suppose, if at some point I decide to go through ...

Yes, it is unfortunate that Slacko is so dated. I originally had a plan specifically Slacko related. I was going to try and see if there was a way to get Studioware working in Slacko. The idea was to be able to piggyback on Studioware and gather a group to create and maintain a multimedia version of ...

Thanks for the that and the quick reply. Unfortunately, I can't find the module when trying to configure my wireless connection. I am sure that it was installed.Semme wrote:So long as "uname -r" returns 4.1.11, install this and reboot.

First day Slacko64 6.3.2 user with Broadcom BCM43228 problem
I assume I need broadcom-sta to get my wireless card to work, but I don't understand references in the forum to other pups or how that will me get the proper driver installed to get the wireless card working. I have been on the forum for awhile, but this is the first time that I have installed a pup ...

Puppy Linux Forum pass retrieval and new pass gen AWOL
I haven't used the forum in a looong time, but still fascinated with Puppy. I couldn't remember my password and as the subject states, none of the retrieval mechanisms work for using original user. Luckily, I found my original password, as I wouldn't have been able to use my original user, which is ...

Inspired newbie looking for clear, concise howto for EEE PC.
I liked what I saw running the newest Puppy version in VirtualBox and had the opportunity to buy an EEE PC 701 on the cheap. Now the question is how to install.Puppy and whether to use Puppy, MacPuppy or Puppeee. 1) I would like to get as close as possible to a full desktop experience without the ...

Thanks for the tip, it worked just fine. However, I kept plugging away at my problem as well. I found a couple of possible issues that newbies aren't aware of: 1) The "frugal" install doesn't play nice with VirtualBox. When installing the files default into a "puppy431" folder/directory, GRUB needs ...
