WLAN card problems on Asus VM42 mini pc
I picked up a Asus vm42 mini pc on facebook marketplace for $40 2 days ago. It;s chrome colored and looks cool but it only has a celeron dual core, 8gb of ram so I installed Puppy Linux which runs fine but now that it is installed I can't connect to the internet or get my built in REALTEK 8821AE wifi to work. Is there a driver for my wifi card?

TrixiePup64 legacy onto usb 4gb, success.
Installed by booting via ventoy 1.1.10
Caveats
must format usb msdos partition table. use gparted,
Leave 1MB before 1st partition of fat32 or ext4
Use puppy grub2config (grub4dos onto usb tends to forget searching past sda=failed boots)

Suggestion - Auto updating NTP time on boot
If it's the first boot or a Live boot, and when a network connection is detected, then a prompt should ask the user for their time zone and then update it.
Because a user might not be able to properly browser the web, install software, etc. without updating the time, and they might not even know that they need to, or how to, do so.

Best multimedia puplet
Hi guys.
Just dusted off an old laptop to do some DVD ripping. Is there a multimedia heated puplet with tools like handbrake, vlc etc?

TrixiePup64 legacy onto usb 4gb, success.
Installed by booting via ventoy 1.1.10
Caveats
must format usb msdos partition table. use gparted,
Leave 1MB before 1st partition of fat32 or ext4
Use puppy grub2config (grub4dos onto usb tends to forget searching past sda=failed boots)
