other links below to obtain Puppy-derivative distros. The offical Puppy

guys. See their home page:

Puppy-related web sites
Since I started this project in 2003, Puppy has proliferated. There are
puplets (Puppy-derivatives), documentation sites, extra download sites,
developer support sites. Knowing what's out there is quite a challenge,
hence this page...
IMPORTANT: This list does not imply official sanction or
otherwise by myself. It is simply a list of what I found on the
Internet. Further legal notes at the bottom of this page.

puppylinux.com
This
is the "official" Puppy Linux website, created and maintained by
myself, Barry Kauler. Hosted by hostgator.com. This is where you are
now.
|
|
|
puppylinux.org
This is the main Community-supported Puppy website. This site is a
wiki, where Puppy-users can post feedback, news and documentation. This is not a download
site due to limited bandwidth. The guys managing this site are Puppian, Lobster and Raffy, and all are welcome to contribute.

|
|
puppy-linux.info
Oli started this, as a place for documentation about Puppy. It has User Manuals in many languages.
|
|
|
puppylinux.ca
Eric (caneri) started this site in September 2007 to provide space and
bandwidth to the Puppy Linux community. Members use this site as a Canadian download server to host
various Puppy derivatives, DotPups, PETs, SFS and ISO files. Administrators include MU, tombh, and prit1.

extra download site. He has a large collection of DotPups.

www.moulinier.net
E. Moulinier has created a French-language Puppy-derivative called Toutou Linux ("toutou" means "puppy"!).
|
|
|
www.hacao.com
Hacao has created a Puppy-derivative named "Hacao Linux", in the Vietnamese language.
|
|
|
www.puppylinux-foundation.com
These guys love the old 1.xx Puppy series, due to it's smaller size,
other lightweight features and the 2.4 kernel. The site has information about
1.xx and ISOs to download.

Other Puppy derivatives
There are too many of them to link to directly from here, also some
die, new ones appear. Many also do not have their own sites but rely on
others to host. This link is to a Forum page with links to all the
current puplets. The logo on the left was created by Mark (based on an
original photograph of Vincent) and is used by Raffy and Paul for
MiniPup.

Extra packages for your Pup
The first place to start is click the "Install" icon on the desktop
(see logo on left), and the first to look through are the official PET
packages (hosted on ibiblio.org). There are also DotPup packages to
choose from. But, if you need to look further, click the above link.

Independent reviews
There have been many reviews of Puppy published, some in printed
magazines. This link is to a wiki page with links to online reviews.
The logo on the left is a thumbs-up from itreviews.co.uk.
|
|
|
www.rhinoweb.us
This site has been created by "Rhino" and has video tutorials for
Puppy. These are created by an application called "Wink" and anyone is
invited to contribute. Note, currently most of the available videos are
for the Puppy 1.x series.

Finally...
Useful Linux links
There are many Linux sites that are very useful, such as news, latest
applications, kernel developments. This is a links page to the rest of
the Linux universe.
The above list of Puppy-related sites are in no particular order, and the list is not yet complete.

- The list provided on this page does not imply any
kind of sanction, recognition or responsibility on my part. Individual

connection with the proposed "Puppy Linux Foundation". Its listing here
is in its capacity as a site supporting Puppy 1.xx series, with the
undersanding that its listing here does not compromise any prior claim
to usage of "Puppy Linux Foundation" by the concerned parties.
- Individual logos shown on this page may be
copyrighted/trademarked. Please refer to the legal statements on the
appropriate site. The "official" Puppy linux site has a legal statement
about logos in the FAQ.
