You don't say where the printer is connected to. i would say: connect it to the xp-64, make the printer shared. You can access it easily with the other windows machines. As you don't specify which puppy's you use (always report this) you could use Pnethood. I'm still experimenting with puppies. I ...

This isn't really a puppy question, its just a problem that has come up now that I have so many computers thanks to puppy. I've got a wireless router with 2 open ethernet ports. I've got a bunch of computers that connect to this router wirelessly to get to the internet, but there is no file sharing ...

I'm a fan of deepfreeze.

When I was reading the forums this post was of great interest.

Scott, I'm more likely to be a boat-anchor than a help, but I would love to help test, document, or anything else that a newbie can do.

Well this probably doesn't have any effect since you had it working on Lucid but this thread http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=67696 solved my woes with connecting with my old pc. I had to authorize the PCMCIA card with this command # udevadm trigger --subsystem-match="pcmcia*"

Hmm I found memory on my first google. Is it really series 525 or did we guess at that. If so the memory for this seems to be a little high. It would take you 32 per bank, or $64 to bring you up to 128. http://www.4allmemory.com/memory/compaq-hp-vectra-500-series-525/ I just paid $11 to upgrade my ...

I did a google search trying to understand what this command is doing, but that didn't help. What does this do?

I'm totally new to linux, and now that my puppy is working and doing exactly what I wanted to accomplish, I'd really like to become an informed user.

I think that I know how to fix the problem.... If I could trouble you to do one more thing. Comment-out that "pcmcia-socket-startup" line, then reboot. So, you now have a non-functioning PCMCIA slot. Open a terminal and type this: # udevadm trigger --subsystem-match="pcmcia*" wait a few seconds ...

Answer from Lucid Puppy 5.2.5 Question 1 Then look in /sys/class, do you see pcmcia_socket/pcmcia_socket0? Yes both 0 and 1 (Do you think its those of us with 2 pcmcia slots that are problematic) Question 2 Run this in a terminal: # elspci -l (that is letter l on the end) You should see a line with ...

Netgear WG511v2 Puppy ver. – 4.3.1 small Interface: PCMCIA Chipset: Marvell Security Protocols Confirmed working: WPA2 Configured with: ndiswrapper and Win XP Drivers from the latest Netgear drivers WPG511v2_3_2. Notes: Other users have reported this worked with the Win2K version of the drivers, ...

When you ask things that are too easy you may not get answers. Try drag and drop things into the open new archive. some archive type form good luck. Thank you aarf. I see that you added to your post. I'll give that a try when I get puppy reinstalled. I'm still at the studying stage. I have some ...

I'm using pup-431-small. I am using Wary Puppy 5.1.1. Why not the latest version? Well, simply because I am also interested in this version of Puppy for a virtual pipe organ project I was researching (not for this machine though). Thanx, Geo Well I started out with Lucid 5.25, which I think was the ...

Now that I know to google for WG511v2 instead of WG511 v2 I'm finding all sorts of people with problems on this forum. I have set this up 2x because the first time didn't save for some reason. I didn't find this to be intuitive, but its REALLY easy in pup-4.3.1-small. I'd like to write up some ...

Thanks Chris,

I'll look over your comprehensive thread.

I'm scared about doing this. I am getting a new hard-drive too. Even opening up the case has been tramatic.

Yeah, I had selected XVesa because I had an issue with Xorg and Puppy on another machine. I would get a screen 'wrap around' effect. Almost like Xorg didn't know the starting point of the screen. I would like to get that problem fixed first off. However, I would like to get the video fixed too ...

Oops, I've got to learn to be more precise. :) This is labeled 54 Mbps Wireless PC Card WG511 v2 Even though there is a space between the WG511 and the v2 it is the WG511v2 with Marvell chipset. :) It only works with ndis wrapper and doesn't seem to work very well in Windows, but works very nicely ...

Also as I am typing this post from the computer, I noticed that there are quite a few pauses when I am typing. I would like to put a stop to that as well. I had the same issue when I tried for the small video setup, I think it was xvesa, or something like that. When I redid my setup with xorg all ...

I received my Netgear WG511 v2 54Mbps today, but installing it was a real pain. Netgear has this wizard and it doesn't pull out the XP drivers if you are not on an XP machine. Since as of this writing the only support for this is with the ndiswrapper with the XP drivers this became a bit of a ...

You should check to see how seamonkey renders your website. SeaMonkey is the default browser in many versions of puppy. My website receives about 900 hits a day, and in the two years its been 27 hits from seamonkey. Those were all from me this week ! :D: I've also seen some issues with Microsoft ...

If you have ever actually installed Windows on a laptop starting with a generic Windows disk, you know that it is much harder and more time-consuming than installing any Linux distribution (distro). I'm getting ready to do my first windows install, upgrading Win2k to WinXP, and I'm terrified. I've ...
