Setting the 800x480 screen on the Eee PC 700 (2G Surf)

In some of the newer Puppies (at least 5.4) "xorgwizard" script doesn't detect the right screen size in the "Eee PC 700 2G Surf" but the "Eee PC 701 4G Surf" is detected OK. The problem seems to be that the 700 is not detected by the xorgwizard only the 701 . Until this...

Hi. I have the same problem of not being able to set the monitor to 800x480 in the Eee pc. This worked fine in the Racy Puppy 5.2 but seems to be a problem in Slacko 5.4 and Precise 5.4.2. I am currently using Slacko 5.4.

Did you solve this problem?

Installing icelandic keymap when missing in Puppy

In Slacko Puppy 5.4 and Precise Puppy 5.4.2 the icelandic keymap wasn't installed in /lib/keymaps and therefore not available in the Mouse/keyboard wizard. The icelandic keyboard with our nice letters þ, ð, æ, á, í, á, ú, etc., consequently was not readily available. In Racy Puppy 5.2? the icelandic...
