HP MININOTE INSTALL

Then booting stalls at usb detection and gives prompt.typing reboot and return seems to sort it out but sometimes sound is lost and have to run alsa wizard again. If a crash occurs.(eg flat battery cause charger was not plugged in oops) Waiting to test a web cam driver found on this forum too. xgamma had no effect though may need backlight control sorting out. Have chrome9 driver from suse/via working give correct resolution and xvideo though with gxine display is too bright.ok with vlc. Gradually working through hardware features.wifi ok but fails on local ie fast connections so will try the driver from broadcom soon.

Working well with puppy 4.12 full install and also worked from sd card but frugal to hard drive would not boot even in sata compatability mode. So we used an external linksys usb to get wifi.39.00 us saves us hours of trouble.We even had 3g set up on the mini with puppy with no problems that was a amazing.(Sierra wireless air card 875 was used.Puppy 3.98and 4.01 have been and are the distro versions that we use.So far it has worked damn near perfect on all netbooks including,Everex cloudjunk,EEEpc 701-901,hp mini-note and now it works perfect on our MSI-Wind U-100s.It takes some work to get the puppy trained but the forums have the answers,dont give up on Puppy. The mini-note uses puppy 3.98 as it was the only version that saw the hard drive as for the wireless,well it just wont work with puppy at all.The wifi card installed in the mini is a poor choice and the drivers (bcm43xx and bcm43) have trouble or cant work with the firmware in the HP. As a past owner of the mini-note I can say that Puppy will run perfect on the mini-note.I'm what some would call a crosser,My small home office has both windows,and puppy installed on our computers (21) total.
