Puppy easily recognized wireless LAN card. Code mode AES is uselessness (NG), WPA-PSK(TKIP) is OK. 11 mode = b+g, Uptime is one minute and 40 seconds in CD+USB thumb drive. Because the anti-virus software is updated automatically, and it is made to wait by about five minutes in windowsXP, it is large thanks to Mr. Puppy. I entirely use it for the WEB inspection. Hereafter, I want to go in that doesn't come by using Puppy reading the forum. Best regards.

I installed wine1.0 in Puppy. Many Windows software run. I had a hard time in wn-g54 cbmb wireless LAN card. Prism54 doesn't operate. Ndiswrapper doesn't operate either. When installed ndiswrapper1.33.pet of the previous version, and the driver for XP of IODATA was handled, it operated. It is feeling. Move to a comprehensible place, it is OK because there is a file in wine/drive_c/windows/system32/drivers. 4.0 Xvesa did not use the resolution and was not good.

Though I was using WindowsXP with second-hand FLORA, because operation was heavy, I challenged KNOPPIX3.3 (CD considerably gotten ahead) or UBUNTU expecting might lightness if it was LINUX. However, it did not move at all. I see Puppy in the mail news of something. Even the HDD installation is completion because it moves according to the desire when trying.

This PC is which I used for 3.01 file confirmation at the same time when I translate Dingo. I usually use it in Win98SE as a machine for exclusive use of CAD drafting. Because it is a PC for exclusive use of the software to start by DOS. It is refrained from the use in Linux, for not touch a system drive if possible.
I mounted it and was able to use HDD or MO drive of the SCSI connection, too.

HDD broke though my PC was bought from Yahoo auction. Recovering WIN95 and up-grade to WIN98 troublesomely left me. However, from my past investment (falling PC's repair, kid divides the liquid crystal, Japanese Sake is spilt in the keyboard, breakdown of drive in FDD), I am attached to my computer, so I set my mind on reuseing it.
As there is no CD drive that can be started in this PC, I removed HDD from it and tried installing Puppy from another desktop PC. On the console after starting Puppy from live CD, I typed below;
1. cfdisk /dev/hdc 2. mkfs -L -C /dev/hdc2 3. mkswap 4. mount -a
I selected "FULL" from a universal setup and wrote in MBR to put GRUB on/hdc2 along the installer, and set HDD to VAIO. When starting PC, message of "Kernel panic not syncing:" appeared and was not good.
Next, I selected "FRUGAL", but neither "menu.lst" nor "NEWGRUBTEXT" are found. There is "/boot" in "/boot"... I repeated trial and error. " File Not Found" only displayed, though selected "/hda1" and "/hda2" of the boot loader. When about ready to give up, I found "Puppy Linux 301 frugl" in the bottom of boot loader menu.
Linux is an initial experience for me. I study very much. It was necessary to peruse the manual in the beginning.It is not bad to use by hibernation though note PC like the fossil.
When installed ubuntu 7.1, I had the impression as if communicating in the moonship. Compare with ubuntu, Puppy has a great difference. I want to study Linux little by little with this VAIO. Report end the above.

I reported it's OK with version 3.01 before. Even 4.00Beta works without a problem. What I noticed in a difference with 3.01 is as follows.
1. Puppy started even did not attach "ide1=0x190" option from maker genuine PCMCIA connection CD-ROM drive(I think).
2. Canna started in particular up with a "hankaku/zenkaku" key even if did not set it (3.01 started Anthy in Ctrl+Space).
3. A Japanese folder and file name of the USB memory which I used in WindowsXP were displayed normally.
It is more easy to have come to use Puppy-JP for me of the Windows user. I thank development and people of translation!

CPU: Pentium 550MHz, RAM: 131072KB, Xserver: Xorg(800x600x24), 1024x768x16 is OK, but I use 800x600 resolution as display chars are too small, Puppy's version: 3.01
My motive of Puppy's installing was because I wanted to get away from the world of Windows that a resource to demand rose whenever I revised it. I gave FreeBSD to the candidate and I read books and studied first. I got the screen which nearly 1 hour was finally seen in for setting of Xorg. However, Puppy started Xorg plainly without such trouble. A terrible single word gets convenience of the setting, lightness and the usability of the movement.
Because I heard that Damnsmall Linux 4.2 were light, I introduced it. However, the interface peculiar to this OS is distinctive and does not go for some reason nicely. If interface of the DSL seems not to be improved, I want to use Puppy after this.
But there is a problem. Internet Connection is not possible from modem. This is my (a beginner) guess, and a phone line of my home is a pulse line. May the setting of the modem of Puppy be set by a tone dial? I think.

Even if PC memory is small, it operates comfortably. I installed Firefox3. it operates with stability though it takes a while to start. Though I'm OK with SeaMonkey, new skin was not able to be installed....
About streaming replay (.pls file), the error occured in Gxine and it was NG, I installed Xine.
The wireless is steady by ten WEP hexadecimal digits. It was possible to communicate non-encrypt in WLI-CB-B11. To my regret, WLI-CB-G54 was dying an honorable death.
Visual is wonderful recently. I am especially favorite in the black style. It doesn't stand out even if the liquid crystal is old.
Anyway, Puppy is happy to use. I am indebted in the future.

I was looking for OS(environment) that operate on Junk reproduction PC only as for SVGA in the WindowsMe age, and discovered LiveCD of Puppy3.01JP.
Because I thought it is interesting for a moment, I found 4.00JP-beta again and installed it. Especially, a big problem is not and moves, too.
I installed it from universal installer in HDD with frugal.
I am BSD (chiefly FreeBSD) originally user. I know about Linux only Etch and RHEL3 of Debian. As I do not know Lunux well and am puzzled about compositions not irregular(?)by having put it in busybox, e3editor and frugal mode, I am roughly satisfied Puppy.
PET is easy and is convenience. Is it also good to use binary package though only the package management of the style that does make has been used up to now like ports? It might be comprehensible and be kind to the person who came from Windows that there is GUI front end.
After all, I'm not comfortable "root login" though I looked over FAQ.
Because my PC is not hardware that can drive the application program that originally uses OpenGL enough, either it is no problem though I use X11 with vesa. I'm not feel that slowness so much (though it is not faster).
Is it good because there are a mounter and pburn of the drive also for the data rescue when the person who is using Windows doesn't start due to the trouble? Is it wasteful to say that much?
I began still just to use puppy. I am sorry for being not able to write it is this year like a conventional impression sentence. It will variously examine in the future, and it embezzles for a while.

It feels such as a free VMware. Puppy runs in one window. Not to mention Windows, there is the MacOS X and various Unix system OS, too. http://www.virtualbox.org/ is English site, but the application becomes the Japanese indication. I do not have to burn it in CD-R to be able to mount a distributed iso file as a CD/DVD-ROM drive.
The OS type is "Linux 2.6" when I make a newly virtual machine. I can install it by installation to the hard disk as usual without doing a special thing afterward.

Because VMware Player cannot generate the virtual machine alone, QEMU is necessary separately. Starting Live-CD from CD or DVD drive and install it in a virtual machine.

Generally my main work is enough in emacs in FreeBSD and shell. It is only an X server that I expect to a desktop. I used Windows XP + Xming for a long time, but I decided to stop use of Windows. In acquaintance with the world, I cannot simplify the perfection abolition of Windows even if I say so. Therefore I decided to run Windows on VMware.
In other words my matter is 3 of the next.
(1) Can easily use the unidentified LAN card.
(2) A 1024x768 screen and jp106 keyboard are easily usable.
(3) Can be the host OS of VMware.
Because My favorite BSD Linux did not satisfy No.3, so I rejected it. As a result of having tried some Linux distros, Puppy matched me most.

I obtain a discarded computer by transfer from a certain group and use this PC as a toy. The back of the PC says "purchased 1998". When I installed Windows XP for trial, it run slow movement at first glance. If it was it, I thought that I could use Puppy easily and tried it.
It was surely an easy victory. Puppy runs with the speed of the degree not to have any problem for practical use although being slightly slow. However, it was relaxed to death and did not bear practical use when I started seamonkey. Therefore this report lets an X server of this opportunity display a screen of firefox of FreeBSD and writes it.
Postscript:
I thought it to be an easy victory at first, but after all the program with GUI was late to death and has frozen at last. After all I think that it is necessary to keep modest driving in mind with the extremely poor machine.
Further postscript:
I installed it in a hard disk fully and secured swap. In this, I came to operate stability comfortably.

It was SONY PCG-C1MRX which I fell in love at first sight in a recycle store and purchased, but WIndowsXP run too slow, so I introduced Puppy. Puppy recognized the peripheral devices such as USB 2.0 card or LAN card automatically. I am satisfied very much.
But there is one problem, I am in a condition to have been out of a screen around 5mm on the top when I display with 1280x600 resolution, so title bar is not seen. If this problem is settled....

By a problem peculiar to PC(PCVAIO505 systems) that have no CD-ROM drive, I had a hard time most to start puppy from CD. 286(forumu name)'s website served as a reference very much.
Now I fully installed puppy to HDD and prepared 256MB swap partition. It connects to the Internet from power supply ON to start more quickly than 48 seconds and all high speck PCs of my home. (Youtube does not do gawky movement too.)
Wireless LAN was recognized by default. It runs considerably comfortably. I came by reviving as net reading machine with an old PC thanks to Puppy sufficiently.
In addition, even 3.01 confirmed movement(Wireless LAN is also OK).

My PC has not a CD-ROM drive. It started in "WakePup floppy " and installed FULL in a hard disk from a CD-ROM drive of the USB connection.
When I install VMware, warning message said that need more than 256MB. However, I ignored it and continued. Run VMWare with a 128MB PC, and is late to death when run 64MB Windows XP. However, it came to move at the speed that I could be satisfied with somehow when I sharpened contents of .xinitrc hard and made it only exec vmware.
In other words it is an opportunity for exclusive use of VMware. I think this to have used the original edition not Japanese edition Puppy.

I appointed a wireless LAN driver for Windows 2000 in "ndiswrapper" with Puppy network Wizard, and I was able to be connected in "WPA-TKIP". However, I was not able to be connected when I rebooted (Is not setting maintained?). When running Puppy network Wizard again, I can be connected, but it is what was unpleasant that do so every time. I looked except /etc/rc.d/rc.network and edited "/etc/wlan0wireless" as follows after having done Googling in various ways. "/usr/sbin/wpa_connect.sh wlan0 wext". It came to cut it by wireless LAN connection afterwards even if I rebooted. *It is Occupied in it does not understand it well, but a result being OK whether it is good in this.

It is high-level goods of price 420,000 yen (CRT is contained) though my PC is a machine bought in 1996, and this low spec. My PC cannot boot CD though the SCSI connection CD-ROM drive has adhered. The USB port doesn't exist naturally.
If the floppy disk cannot start, OS cannot be installed, and, up to now, only FreeBSD has been put. Then I tried WakePup floppy disk, but this was not able to be used too. The error message "Interrupt divide by zero" comes out, and FreeDOS cannot be started with this.. PC though WakePup starts FreeDOS.
Is the last method connecting a FULL installed HDD with another PC ?

Puppy3.01J was able to use only 11M wireless LAN, but 54M wireless LAN came to be usable since 4.0J. I can set smoothly it than I thought and it run perfect. CD boot and HDD installation, both usable without a problem. Operating conditions are comfortable, too. But, as for being interested, this wireless LAN card displayed connection of ath0 and wifi0 at the same time. However, movement does not seem to have the influence. It shows the network community of samba well, too.

I installed Puppy full concerning memory. Because a CD-ROM passed out of sight in halfway of installation, I prepare the USB memory of contents same as a CD, and I continued installation from a CD in the first half and in the later half by USB memory. As the setting of the wireless LAN is not reflected at reboot, I describe contents of /etc/eth0wireless in /etc/eth0mode. A feeling of use is comfortable if I usually use it although some animation reproduction are heavy.

I pulled an HDD and installed it with other PCs. In circumstances of the memory, I chiced only a full install. LAN and sound did not just work. I set it in reference to the article of the head family forum. The sound works just after wizard setting, but after reboots OS, it does not. I added "alsa restart" and was settled. Applications run extremely hard, because only 32M memory. As for the spreadsheets barely enough start. It was all one could do to run editor.
However, I was impressed that OS in itself starts up well. I seem to be usable as a pretty good server of experimental. (144 Link)

I installed 3.01J in a PC, but wireless LAN I have did not all recognize, I left it unattended. As 4.00JP was announced and I reinstall, Puppy recognized it without what hardship. I did not notice my wireless LAN setting mistake and got into trouble. However, I use without a problem comfortably afterward. I used it in Windows 2000 before, but work more lightly then. It becomes the home "lie-down-use-netPC".
But X is hung up if movie will replay in MPlayer. I tested Xorg and Xvesa, but both were NG.

I installed Puppy for recycling "150-1" PC. Because it is not to be able to do CD boot, I did the Frugal installation by connecting HDD with "150-2" PC, and starting from CD. After that, I connected original HDD, it started by the Frugal installation. And, I did the full installation in another partition. Frugal is left for the restoration when breaking down. It is Dual Boot of a full installation and the Frugal installation. 6300MC did not use 32MB memory of onboard, and mounted 256MB memory.
As for Xvesa, the screen has become a fem green. Wireless LAN can be connected with BCM43xx. Besides, WLI-PCM-S11 of Buffalo also recognized only insert it. Wireless LAN card named WN-G54/CBMB of the I-O Data and the COMBO card of CF were not able to be recognized only by inserting. It is glad for the PC to revive (the Win98 age's low-spec and my favorite and mobile and launched in 1999). Most I am a beginner. The use experience of Linux is only Zaurus. My best regards.

CPU: PentiumIII 300MHz, RAM: 256MB, Disk Drive 3GB(Not 30GB!), Multi-boot GRUB, Windows98 and Puppy Version 4.00J, Internet Connection with Wireless.
Puppy works really comfortably. This is the old PC which I purchased for children in old days. As for Windows98, start was slow, and USB 2.0 was not usable, too and did not have the connection of Wireless LAN, it was not practical at all. When I install Puppy, I revived to the PC which did not have inferiority in a recent model functionally. It had only 96MB RAM, but were still enough at first. Thanks to grace, it is right Pupy. As the celebration that revived, I splashed out and built more memory.
I tried these 3 disrtos, Slax Linux, Ubuntu, and Puppy, but Puppy has the best convenience. Actually, in the specifications of this PC, Ubuntu mostly did not run. As for Slax, pretty good run, but "Wireless Internet connection" was never possible.
I did Multi-Boot with GRUB. Full-MS-Office is in Windows98. I do not uninstall it being a waste, but hardly use it anymore. Installation of GRUB considerably had a hard time first. I took a magazine and the article of the webs into account, but it was confused for some reason by the contents which explanation was strangely difficult, and was unnecessary. It is really easy when I understand it. I write it up soon.
I connect the Internet via WirelessRouter with Puppy, but do not recognize it in LAN in the home. The partner is WindowsXP and Vista, but want someone to teach an interconnect method of Linux and Windows.
The all of you whom old PCs roll to the home, Puppy is God of the help.

I full-installed Puppy, because my PC has low memory. When using ndiswrapper, GW-US54GXS became so that CPU utilization was 100% always near and was useless. I restructured Puppy, because the standard zd1211rw had not moved either. Wireless LAN setting did not go well in GUI, therefore, I rewritten directly a pertinent file in /etc directory.

I checked the operation with an FIVA first generation PC of Casio.
I installed Ubuntu7.10 in this PC and let I chose KDE, Xfce, IceWM and carry it out. However, It seemed to be too heavy in Ubuntu, and start considerably took time.
The start is very early, and there is not stress when I can choose Puppy in GRUB and try it. I am really splendid.
The point that is disappointed with only one of Puppy, 128MB Compact Flash (sticked to this PC) is not recognized. It can be recognized in Ubuntu.
By the way, I tested Puppy in DELL Inspiron1300. This can never connect wireless LAN (a BCM4318 tip) . The cable broadcasting ethernet is OK.

I use Puppy from CD. Cable LAN card was recognized at once. Wireless LAN(WL54AG) is connected by WEP, but WPA was not recognized, I detached it.
I can see animation with Xvesa. Because it is a low spec, movement is awkward.
I had a hard time though the sound was emitted. ES1879 driver specificated in Win98SE, "snd_es18xx" was able to be read easily. But it was not good though it fiddled with all the volumes. I see after my searching the web, the driver is "Sound blaster pro compatibility". When read snd_bs8, Puppy barked splendidly saying "Woof Woof!". Thanks to 286.
As for music CD, the sound becomes interrupted. Is this because PC is a low spec?

Cable LAN and wireless LAN recognized automatically, and connected with the internet. The Gxine media player cannot reproduce rental DVD with a message "The xine engine failed in the start".
It is light in 14.1 type SXGA +. CD-R/RW+DVD in 60GBHDD model by about 1.8kg. In corporation WindowsXP in the first six months of the term (April - September) of 2005;
HDD when shipping it is partitioned in the right in two. The capacity of C and D is the same. Unused area of about 800MB(Is it a recovery originally area?)
For a corporate model of Hitachi and Toshiba, only 20GB is formatted :-). The remainder is unused (Even if you use 60GBHDD). It is "Wisdom of support" that explanation screen is different by several characters in capacity by manual and real machine that prevents guest who complains that it differs from drive letter (icon) showing up.

CPU: CeleronM410 1.46GHz, RAM: 2009MB(124MB used), Xorg: 1280x1024x24, puppy4.1.1jp_CD
A new environment was completed after downloaded(16 minutes), burned to CD(3 minutes), and for 5 minutes to boot up. I seem to be able to enjoy, though I do not still understand the usage of Puppy. I wish to express my gratitude to the developers.
Other SOTEC WinbookWV started similarly, and easily.

I couldn't install Puppy with CD-ROM (special CardBus). The access chaneges to HDD during the installation, 400_ sfs is not found, and it stops.
My installation method;
Removed HDD once from PC and connected to another desktop PC, then set up Puppy. Afterwards returned the HDD to Libretto. This is harsh measures.
Though I heard "Woof, woof" at SoundWizard's end, besides sound is not emitted(it is a future task).
PC has only 64MB RAM, so it doesn't work crispy, but I think enough for this spec.

I use Puppy4.1.1 from 4GB-USB thumb drive. I examined the method of using the USB camera of non-correspondence for UVC, and I found Spca5xx in Puppy4.1.1. I used "Xawtv" found in Puppy Discussion Forum, and got to the point where display images.

CPU: 933MHz, RAM: 384MB, Graphics Card: Onboard, Xserver: Xorg(1024x768), LAN Card: WLI-UC-G, Puppy's version: 4.00J
I was going to use Linux at the chance breaking of HDD. I challenged the start from USB thumb drive, and succeeded. Wireless LAN card used till then was not able to be used, and I gave it up. I bought BUFFALO WLI-UC-G sold cheaply recently. After fighting of several days hard, it was possible to connect it with wpa. I copied "inf" and "sys" files from attacedt CD and used ndiswrapper. However, the driver is not installed, and there is no "sys" in the ndiswrapper folder. Then, I used copied "sys" file and succeeded install. I am feeling to recycle broken PC. I wish to express my gratitude to development, and the person who made a Japanese version.

I changed from VineLinux4.2 to PuppyLinux today. "SHARP PC-MM1-H3E" has only 256MB memory and 8MB video RAM, and is a poor spec PC now. However, PuppyLinux was able to be connected with wireless LAN without an especially difficult setting.

CPU: AMD K6-2 450MHz, RAM: 256MB, Graphics Card: Matrox Millenium PCI, Xserver: Xvesa(1024x768), LAN Card: ?, Puppy's version: 4.00J
I bought this PC in the junk shop. The original is Windows98 spec. I installed and was using WindowsME. I was able to install "Puppy" in HDD though I am a Linux newbie. Because HDD is slow (I think that it is Ultra 66), The installation is completed when formatting it with ext3. However, it stops every time why because of loading "Grub". Then, when formatting with ext2 and installing it, it was possible to start safely. Here for one week. The knowledge of Windows is so useless. I do study over again.

This is mininotebook PC of the convertible type. It booted from USB thumb drive, and the standard operated almost without trouble. The touch screen came to be able to use by installing the driver referring to the Internet site.
Wireless LAN may possibly not operate normally. It is not to verify enough.
The operation of Puppy is terribly light. I thank again to the people who were developed, and translated.

I tried a full installation to VAIO PC in which Windows2000 was installed from Puppy-CD. However, "Pup_400.sfs" is not found in PC and it ends. Even the CD start was not able to be done.
When "Pup_4004.sfs" is copied from CD onto Windows, it starts. However, it is not possible to install it from CD to HDD by "Puppy universal installer" because it boots reading "Pup_4004.sfs" of HDD.
On spec, I copied "pup_4004.sfs" onto USB thumb drive, then connect to VAIO. I tried to start from the CD, it booted easily. The installation completed by "Puppy universal installer".
The sound has not been emitted now. However, the Internet connection operates well for this spec (CPU 150MHz! and 64MB RAM).
By the way, 280MB of 2GBHDD was allocated in Linux-swap.
I thank to the author of Puppy linux and everybody who makes a Japanese environment and a comfortable environment.

This PC is inherited from parents. It was not possible to select Xvasa at first starting time. I am satisfied Xorg because it is also very light.

The name of LAN is different in each version of Puppy.
Rental DVD can be replay with Gxine.
Confirmed the operation of Cable LAN(I 'm writing this report in the forum). Wireless LAN is unverified. (report later).

CPU: Atom N270 1.6GHz, RAM: 1GB, Xserver: Xorg(1024x600x24), Puppy's version: acer2-puppy-411.iso
Puppy Linux 4.1.1 run in "Acer aspire_one".
I downloaded acer2-puppy-411.iso after searching key word "aspireone" from the head of the house forum (English). And I made a USB thumb drive for boot by another Puppy operation PC. Afterwards, USB memory was able to be booted with aspireone.
I save Personal Storage File(2fs) in USB. It is completely separated with HDD of WindowsXP.
I used a Japanese Localize Kit "ja_JP.UTF8_411_1103.pet".
As I use "Thumb shift keyboard input method" for Japanese input, I installed "anthy-9100c-i686.pet" and "scim-anthy-1.2.4-i686.pet".
The menu had been garbled, I substituted all "DejaVu Sans-12" in ~/.jwm/jwmrc-theme file to "DejaVu Sans 12". Thus, after reboot PC, the menu safely became Japanese.
Built-in Wireless LAN also recognized automatically. It was possible to connect by the WPA/TKIP method. Built-in camera is under investigation.
