hagisbasheruk | good morning | 08:09 |
---|---|---|
hagisbasheruk | Alastair_, any luck ? | 08:10 |
Alastair_ | yea | 08:30 |
Alastair_ | just not with the touchscreen and touchpad :D | 08:31 |
hagisbasheruk | tell me how you got on then | 08:31 |
Alastair_ | btw. | 08:31 |
Alastair_ | http://ftp.kaist.ac.kr/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-backports-modules-2.6.27/ | 08:31 |
Alastair_ | easy fix for the wireless problem ^^ | 08:31 |
Alastair_ | just install the patch corresponding to your kernel version and architecture and voila... :D | 08:32 |
hagisbasheruk | remember when you do update to get latest linux-backports-modules-kernelNUMBER to go with new kernel | 08:32 |
hagisbasheruk | or you lose wifi again | 08:33 |
Alastair_ | yea... the strange thing is that it said that i have this version in the repo, but there they have only 27-7 :s (i needed 27-10) | 08:34 |
Alastair_ | anyway, it's working :D | 08:34 |
hagisbasheruk | i suggest you findout who wrote touchscreen driver to see if they can help configure it for your screen | 08:35 |
Alastair_ | now if i can fix the touchpad at least i'll be happy :D | 08:35 |
Alastair_ | nah, the touchscreen won't be an easy thing to fix | 08:36 |
Alastair_ | it seems that the only hope so far is for penmount to release a driver... | 08:36 |
Alastair_ | but the touchpad is another deal... there is no reason it shouldn't work otb :/ | 08:37 |
hagisbasheruk | well , i had prob with touchscreen on my MobilePro 900c with Jlime Linux and Kristofer the kernel developer modded the driver for my machine :) | 08:37 |
hagisbasheruk | he made a debug kernel for me to take down co-ordinates from screen then modded the code just for my machine :) | 08:39 |
Alastair_ | i think there is some sort of conflict between the touchpad and touchscreen over which one should control the pointer | 08:39 |
hagisbasheruk | ahh then just blacklist one of them :P | 08:40 |
Alastair_ | how xD | 08:40 |
Alastair_ | i prefer working touchpad over half-working touchscreen...at least for the moment | 08:41 |
FreeSoul | hi guys :D I've a couple of questions: does ubuntu mobile supports poulsbo chipset? what about marvell wifi? and why when i try it on my Benq MID S6 i don't have the gui as the one of the screenshot online? | 08:43 |
hagisbasheruk | sorry , i lost ability to type Alastair_ :/ hi FreeSoul brb , need a Pee | 08:44 |
Alastair_ | are you sure you aren't mistaking netbookremix and mobile? | 08:44 |
Alastair_ | :D | 08:44 |
FreeSoul | hagisbasheruk: nop, take your time :) | 08:44 |
Alastair_ | nbr is the one with fancy gui | 08:44 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: no, i downloaded the one from teh topic and the daily release of 17 | 08:44 |
Alastair_ | can you show me the screenshot xD | 08:45 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: no :( it's just a list of applications with a top bar with home button, network and so on :) | 08:45 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: can you give me the url of the one you mentioned? | 08:45 |
Alastair_ | do you mean this one http://www.canonical.com/projects/ubuntu/nbr ? | 08:46 |
FreeSoul | ah no no, wait :) | 08:47 |
FreeSoul | http://www.ubuntu.com/products/mobile | 08:47 |
hagisbasheruk | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/intrepid/release/ubuntu-8.10-umpc-i386.img for 7 to 10" screens | 08:47 |
FreeSoul | anyway Benq MID S6 is a mid, not a netbook, it has 4.8" screen and so on | 08:47 |
hagisbasheruk | so you want http://releases.ubuntu.com/intrepid/ubuntu-8.10-mid-lpia.img | 08:48 |
FreeSoul | yeah i've installed exactly that :) | 08:48 |
FreeSoul | anyway i don't care a lot about gui... i need drivers to work :D | 08:49 |
hagisbasheruk | if you have done an install the look on your usb/flash device for..... | 08:50 |
hagisbasheruk | linux-backports-modules-2.6.27-7-generic_2.6.27-7.4_i386 in debs folder | 08:51 |
FreeSoul | uhmm no, i runned it as live from usb | 08:51 |
FreeSoul | what this file should do? | 08:51 |
hagisbasheruk | click on it to install , well thats if they put it on the mid image | 08:51 |
hagisbasheruk | adds missing driver modules | 08:52 |
FreeSoul | ah good! | 08:52 |
FreeSoul | i've tryed some modprobe from the live but with no success. It can only see the bluetooth :) no wifi, no 3g and so on. | 08:53 |
hagisbasheruk | i duno if its on the mid image though but it is on the umpc image | 08:53 |
FreeSoul | also the switch on/off is not working | 08:53 |
FreeSoul | i see | 08:53 |
Alastair_ | btw. hagisbasheruk does your integrated mic work ? | 08:54 |
Alastair_ | i can't get mine to work in apps :s | 08:54 |
* hagisbasheruk is new to ubuntu-mobile and ubuntu in general but i am sure ogra or some of the other devs can help if you have probs | 08:54 | |
hagisbasheruk | i duno Alastair_ | 08:54 |
FreeSoul | lol, benq mid comes with integrated mic and no software to use it | 08:55 |
Alastair_ | skype ? :D | 08:55 |
hagisbasheruk | so is the integrated mice the mic or frontmic in the mixer ? | 08:55 |
Alastair_ | or the voice recorder that comes with ubuntu | 08:55 |
Alastair_ | frontmic... | 08:56 |
Alastair_ | at least for me | 08:56 |
FreeSoul | yeah... tryed but there are two problems: no way to make skype work with the sound card and at midinux they didn't set sw keyboard as input for X | 08:56 |
Alastair_ | easy and fast test to see if it works at all - boost it to the max and if there is echo - it's working xD | 08:56 |
Alastair_ | btw. the cam is working too... and for my surprise it's recording at 1280x1024, under vista the max was 640x480 ^^ | 09:00 |
hagisbasheruk | try some of the sound fixes on that aspire page i linked you to yesterday | 09:00 |
hagisbasheruk | ooohh :) | 09:01 |
FreeSoul | hagisbasheruk: where is the deb directory supposed to be? | 09:01 |
hagisbasheruk | "/deb/ on /dev/your_device" | 09:02 |
Alastair_ | hm.. | 09:02 |
Alastair_ | the sound system is working just fine, the problem is i can't tell skype or the other programs to use the frontmic as source :s | 09:02 |
Alastair_ | tried alsa&pulse from the sound settings, nothing works :/ | 09:02 |
hagisbasheruk | thats why i said see soun fix | 09:03 |
hagisbasheruk | plug your device into a pc and you will see it FreeSoul | 09:04 |
FreeSoul | hagisbasheruk: my mid has just one mini usb port. On that i've the usb flash driver with ubuntu live... what else can i don? i'm in / and looking for a deb directory | 09:05 |
hagisbasheruk | i never saw it until i did install as i couldn't access my /dev/sdb usb device as it was in use via the live image | 09:05 |
hagisbasheruk | type mount to see whats mounted | 09:06 |
hagisbasheruk | brb , need power cord from downstairs | 09:06 |
Alastair_ | FreeSoul in the flashdrive's root dir there should be deb dir | 09:07 |
Alastair_ | but i'm not sure if there is such a dir in the lpia image | 09:09 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: /deb/sdb is mounted as /cdrom and there no deb directory in it. I've casper, preseed, boot.msg, initrd.img, ldlinux.sys syslinux.cfg | 09:09 |
FreeSoul | yep, i'm running lpia | 09:09 |
Alastair_ | yeah... no backports for you then :/ | 09:10 |
FreeSoul | yeah :) | 09:10 |
Alastair_ | what's the model of the wifi chipset ? | 09:10 |
FreeSoul | damn i've the damn sensation i'll must use this stupid Midinux still for lot of time.... | 09:10 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: it should be a marvell wifi | 09:11 |
FreeSoul | i need to reboot mid to find it out | 09:11 |
FreeSoul | rebooting in midinux :) | 09:11 |
FreeSoul | anyway, i'd like to know why they did such a mess at Midinux | 09:12 |
Alastair_ | http://www.google.bg/search?hl=bg&q=ubuntu+lpia+marvell&btnG=%D0%A2%D1%8A%D1%80%D1%81%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B5&meta= | 09:12 |
Alastair_ | at least you're not alone xD | 09:12 |
FreeSoul | yes.... but really, it was lot lot of time that i didn't saw anything so bad designed | 09:13 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: marvell 8686_v9 | 09:14 |
hagisbasheruk | mabey you can perswade someone to add your driver to the mid image ;) if you cannot get the linux-backports-modules file on your device | 09:14 |
FreeSoul | hagisbasheruk: i really dunno who to write to. I've managed to contact also benq mid s6 product manager! | 09:15 |
Alastair_ | hagisbasheruk, he is using different architecture, there's no backports package for him :D | 09:16 |
FreeSoul | i've also drivers source code that are in Midinux | 09:16 |
hagisbasheruk | what cpu does it have ? | 09:16 |
FreeSoul | hagisbasheruk: atom 800MHz | 09:16 |
Alastair_ | atom :? | 09:17 |
FreeSoul | intel atom | 09:17 |
Alastair_ | weren't the atoms i386 | 09:17 |
hagisbasheruk | so linux-backports-modules is what he needs | 09:17 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: yes, it's a damn x86 :) | 09:17 |
Alastair_ | try this | 09:18 |
Alastair_ | http://ftp.kaist.ac.kr/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-backports-modules-2.6.27/linux-backports-modules-2.6.27-10-generic_2.6.27-10.8_i386.deb | 09:18 |
FreeSoul | it's Intel Atom Z500 | 09:18 |
Alastair_ | i thought it was with some kind of xscale | 09:18 |
hagisbasheruk | download the file to your devices memory / boot ubuntu mid and mount your memory device and install file | 09:19 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: oh, no, please no :) | 09:19 |
FreeSoul | hagisbasheruk: ok man :) | 09:19 |
Alastair_ | well, if it's x86 the file from the link must work... | 09:19 |
Alastair_ | hm... btw. w8 | 09:20 |
Alastair_ | what's your kernel's version xD | 09:20 |
Alastair_ | this package is for 2.6.27-10... | 09:20 |
FreeSoul | 2.6.22.18-2 | 09:20 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: of course it will use kernel from ubuntu live that is 2.6.27 | 09:21 |
hagisbasheruk | nice device bye the way :) | 09:21 |
FreeSoul | hagisbasheruk: yes, nice device, damn horrible software | 09:21 |
FreeSoul | or, better, worst "linux" (yes, they call it linux) system ever | 09:21 |
Alastair_ | http://ftp.kaist.ac.kr/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-backports-modules-2.6.22/ | 09:21 |
Alastair_ | i can't find 2.6.22-18 :s | 09:22 |
hagisbasheruk | uname -r in your terminal FreeSoul to determine ubuntu kernel | 09:22 |
hagisbasheruk | you need the right file to go with it | 09:22 |
FreeSoul | hagisbasheruk: now i'm running midinux... to download the deb file, it's 2.6.22.18-2 | 09:23 |
FreeSoul | after reboot i'll use lpia kernel that is 2.6.27 | 09:23 |
hagisbasheruk | ahh :) so you need one from http://ftp.kaist.ac.kr/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-backports-modules-2.6.27/ | 09:26 |
Alastair_ | i think the i386 package won't install on it, but you can always try xD | 09:26 |
FreeSoul | why should it not install? i hope it will not ask for dependecies | 09:28 |
hagisbasheruk | it should | 09:28 |
hagisbasheruk | install | 09:28 |
Alastair_ | nope, at least it didn't ask me... but i think there is a reason they have two images (i386 and lpia xD ) | 09:29 |
FreeSoul | lol | 09:29 |
FreeSoul | this will be one of last tests i'll do... next I'll take plane for China, go at Midinux headquartier and I'll kill everybody :D | 09:30 |
hagisbasheruk | lpia is Low Power Intel Architecture | 09:30 |
Alastair_ | idk if they are different architectures tho xD | 09:30 |
Alastair_ | maybe i'm just thinking too much xD | 09:30 |
hagisbasheruk | linux-backports-modules-2.6.27-7-generic_2.6.27-7.4_i386 in debs folder , its i386 | 09:30 |
FreeSoul | damn i've downloaded 2.6.27-10_i386! | 09:31 |
FreeSoul | ok i'm booting ubuntu... let's see | 09:31 |
Alastair_ | that's why i told you to watch out for the version | 09:31 |
hagisbasheruk | same but one is compiled with flags for power saving stuff for atom | 09:31 |
Alastair_ | if you haven't updated the installation it probably uses 2.6.27-7 | 09:31 |
Alastair_ | hmmm | 09:32 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: i'm booting from live... i check the kernel version, i try to install -10 and if it fails i go back to midinux, download -7 and repeat the step | 09:32 |
hagisbasheruk | FreeSoul, just uname -r in terminal first to see what kernel you have | 09:33 |
FreeSoul | hagisbasheruk: yes yes i know, i'm sysadmin :) | 09:33 |
hagisbasheruk | the pic same as for modules | 09:33 |
hagisbasheruk | ok :P | 09:33 |
FreeSoul | damn :) it's 2.6.27-4 :) | 09:34 |
FreeSoul | ok i try to install -10 anyway :) | 09:35 |
Alastair_ | don't do stupid things xD | 09:35 |
FreeSoul | lol | 09:35 |
hagisbasheruk | wait ill get you file | 09:36 |
Alastair_ | http://ftp.kaist.ac.kr/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-backports-modules-2.6.27/linux-headers-lbm-2.6.27-7-server_2.6.27-7.4_i386.deb | 09:36 |
Alastair_ | 27-7.4 or 27-4 ? | 09:36 |
FreeSoul | 2.6.27-4 | 09:37 |
Alastair_ | no backports for that... | 09:38 |
Alastair_ | and i gave you the wrong link anyway xD | 09:38 |
Alastair_ | you don't need server headers xD | 09:38 |
FreeSoul | just to know... i'm not a ubuntu/debian user. to install a from a local package? apt-get install file.deb? | 09:41 |
Alastair_ | nope, just doubleckick it | 09:41 |
Alastair_ | installing from terminal involves dpkg, not apt-get | 09:42 |
FreeSoul | here it says: packages list... done, building dependecy tre... done, could not file file bla bla.deb | 09:42 |
FreeSoul | ok | 09:42 |
FreeSoul | just for fun, how to install from terminal? | 09:42 |
FreeSoul | dpkg ? | 09:42 |
Alastair_ | dpkg --help :D | 09:42 |
FreeSoul | ok | 09:42 |
FreeSoul | damn! trying to install the -10 (ok don't worry about version) it says that kernel arch is lpia, not i386! | 09:44 |
FreeSoul | brb | 09:44 |
hagisbasheruk | ahh ... | 09:46 |
FreeSoul | back :) | 09:48 |
hagisbasheruk | google is not my friend today , i am too sleepy | 09:48 |
FreeSoul | so with the arch problem may be a huge one | 09:48 |
hagisbasheruk | nah , just idle her till devs wake | 09:48 |
hagisbasheruk | here* | 09:49 |
FreeSoul | auihaiuhaiuhaiuhaiuah how not :) | 09:49 |
FreeSoul | i'm sure they will magically switch on on their own | 09:49 |
hagisbasheruk | while you wait you might like to read , very good reading https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/openweekintrepid/UMPC | 09:50 |
FreeSoul | hagisbasheruk: yep but this umpc related | 09:51 |
FreeSoul | am i wrogn? | 09:51 |
hagisbasheruk | still give insite into whats happening | 09:52 |
FreeSoul | i can tell you also a nice new.... it's happening that intel is not releasing public updated drivers for this devices... and consider that the drivers inside Midinux are written by intel | 09:53 |
FreeSoul | wasn't mandriva making something for mids? am i wrong? I really hope not be forced to use mandriva :) but it's for sure, better then midinux :P | 09:55 |
hagisbasheruk | brb 10 mins need cuppa and toast | 09:57 |
Alastair_ | http://www.umpcportal.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=3912&start=15 | 10:01 |
Alastair_ | btw. for keyboard you can try cellwriter | 10:02 |
Alastair_ | virtual kb for touchscreen devices, it's included in the umpc version | 10:03 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: it's me the TDFS there, i wrote the review :) | 10:07 |
hagisbasheruk | :) | 10:12 |
hagisbasheruk | no bread left , i am not going out in that snow , settled for a couple of small pork pies for breakfast :) | 10:16 |
FreeSoul | :P | 10:17 |
Alastair_ | aw, i'm making crème caramel for lunch xD | 10:28 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: :) | 10:29 |
hagisbasheruk | mmm... | 10:29 |
FreeSoul | when is it planned next mid release? | 10:29 |
Alastair_ | april 2009... | 10:29 |
FreeSoul | ahahhahahahaa | 10:29 |
FreeSoul | 5 months! | 10:30 |
Alastair_ | but maybe they'll release beta/alpha before that | 10:30 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: yeah i regurarly try the daily build | 10:30 |
hagisbasheruk | yup 9.04 , ie 2009 04 month | 10:30 |
FreeSoul | i'm quite sure Benq will give still no updates... even if they are promising.... who wanna bet? :) | 10:31 |
Alastair_ | most manufacturers tend to do that :/ | 10:31 |
FreeSoul | i think they are just damn stupids! | 10:31 |
FreeSoul | a device without drivers... what the hell do they think user will buy it for?? to see in switched off on the desk? | 10:32 |
Alastair_ | as soon as they reap the initial profit they gradually leave the support for their devices lying in the dust xD | 10:32 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_i think i'm one of the poor stupid dreamers with hope in mid devices... | 10:33 |
Alastair_ | yea, i hope they drag more attention to them, but we'll see | 10:33 |
FreeSoul | yep... | 10:34 |
Alastair_ | i even considered to buy nokia n810 or the new giga with 7" screen | 10:34 |
FreeSoul | anyway i think i'll never buy anything from benq again | 10:34 |
Alastair_ | cuz the netbook ain't that easy to use while on foot :D | 10:34 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: n810 is nice but with small screen resolution... an all 7"+ staff can't fit in your pocket | 10:34 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: yep, you can't bring it anywhere | 10:35 |
Alastair_ | nah, i take it everywhere with me and it's pretty usefull, just not comfortable to use while walking on the street | 10:36 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: hahah | 10:36 |
Alastair_ | it's tablet, not regular one ;) | 10:37 |
FreeSoul | uh, much better | 10:37 |
FreeSoul | with linux? | 10:37 |
hagisbasheruk | ARM are getting in on the netbooks with ubuntu suporting them , i look forward to a netbook from them that will last all day on 1 charge | 10:37 |
Alastair_ | untill yesterday it was with vista | 10:37 |
FreeSoul | Alastair_: now? ubuntu? | 10:37 |
Alastair_ | yea | 10:37 |
FreeSoul | nice :) | 10:38 |
Alastair_ | still has some problems, but i hope they'll be fixed soon | 10:38 |
hagisbasheruk | Alastair_, do you still have vista on it olso ? | 10:38 |
FreeSoul | i damn need an os for my mid.... | 10:38 |
Alastair_ | nope, the vista is gone xD | 10:38 |
Alastair_ | why don't you start a thread in the forums | 10:40 |
Alastair_ | maybe someone'll help you there... | 10:40 |
hagisbasheruk | i really didn't like vista , i tried it on my Acer Aspire One A150 , ran great but it sux as an OS , Mac OSX86 is great on it though :) | 10:40 |
Alastair_ | i don't like it either, but i can't remove it from my main pc yet :/ | 10:41 |
Alastair_ | the day valve ports their source engine to linux i'll never touch windows again ^^ | 10:42 |
hagisbasheruk | my misses now has my pc since i got the AAO , she has XP Media Center Edition | 10:43 |
FreeSoul | by guys, c ya! thanks for helping me | 10:43 |
FreeSoul | have a nice day | 10:43 |
hagisbasheruk | cya | 10:43 |
Alastair_ | later.. :D | 10:43 |
hagisbasheruk | u 2 | 10:43 |
FreeSoul | :) | 10:43 |
Alastair_ | i made a 2nd pc for that purpose :p | 10:44 |
Alastair_ | the main rig is mine and mine alone :D | 10:45 |
hagisbasheruk | i just share files/drives on the network so that gives me access to my movies and music etc without having to have them on my netbook :) | 10:49 |
hagisbasheruk | great for installing unreal tournament etc in linux | 10:50 |
hagisbasheruk | plus netbook has no cdrom drive | 10:51 |
hagisbasheruk | quake3 runs great on this :) | 10:51 |
hagisbasheruk | i was very surprised | 10:52 |
Alastair_ | nah, i'm more addicted gamer... | 10:53 |
Alastair_ | that's why i keep the windows installation :/ | 10:53 |
Alastair_ | but if they release some of my favourite games on linux i'll definitely move forever | 10:53 |
hagisbasheruk | i have ps3/xbox360/wii/ds/gizmondo for that | 10:54 |
Alastair_ | i had ps3 and x360, it's just not the same :/ | 10:54 |
Alastair_ | on top of that after the thousands of euro spent on the pc i don't want it to be just a home cinema ^^ | 10:55 |
hagisbasheruk | virtualbox is very good , well on my pc anyway , q3 ran great, never tried crysis though | 10:55 |
Alastair_ | yea about that... | 10:56 |
Alastair_ | what's the deal ? | 10:56 |
Alastair_ | does it bring native performance in the games or... ? | 10:56 |
Alastair_ | never quite understood the concept.. :s | 10:56 |
hagisbasheruk | install it and then install a os to run on it then u have windows on linux | 10:56 |
hagisbasheruk | near native speed now | 10:57 |
Alastair_ | interesting | 10:57 |
hagisbasheruk | so should run everything fine :) | 10:57 |
Alastair_ | after my new drive arrives i'll try it xD | 10:57 |
hagisbasheruk | what cpu u got ? | 10:58 |
Alastair_ | q6600 @ 4.1g | 10:58 |
Alastair_ | it's running at 3.6 most of the time tho... | 10:58 |
Alastair_ | way too much heat and wasted electricity otherwise xD | 10:58 |
hagisbasheruk | ahh so that will be great with vbox | 10:59 |
Alastair_ | what about the video ? | 10:59 |
hagisbasheruk | kill windows on your pc | 10:59 |
hagisbasheruk | its fine | 11:00 |
Alastair_ | i mean how does it work... do i have to install drivers in the guest os or something ? | 11:00 |
hagisbasheruk | i must try virtual box on this :) todAY | 11:00 |
Alastair_ | i can't... i deleted the ubuntu cuz i ran out of space... i purchased a new hdd but it won't be here for a few more days... | 11:01 |
hagisbasheruk | install it , run it ,make virtual drive, install XP , Vista or Linux, install games , smile :) | 11:01 |
hagisbasheruk | brb | 11:02 |
Alastair_ | i wish i was in the US :/ | 11:04 |
hagisbasheruk | why | 11:04 |
Alastair_ | we have to wait so much time to get exotic hardware here... not to speak about the price -.- | 11:04 |
hagisbasheruk | i buy straight from hong kong / china mostly now | 11:05 |
Alastair_ | i buy from germany... mostly... but the shipping is so damn slow... | 11:06 |

Alastair_ | ^^ | 11:09 |
Alastair_ | well, china is in another continent xD | 11:09 |
Alastair_ | but germany is some 1500km from me... | 11:09 |
Alastair_ | there's no logic why i have to wait 2 or more weeks for a simple lightweight package :/ | 11:10 |
hagisbasheruk | i would have that in 1-2 days here in the UK | 11:10 |
Alastair_ | this is some glitch that happened when DHL transfered their shipping service to the national postal service | 11:13 |
Alastair_ | before that my packages arrived in max 3-4 days | 11:13 |
Alastair_ | doesn't matter anyway... if it doesn't come soon i'll go buy HD103UJ... | 11:15 |
Alastair_ | at least they can be found on our market :s | 11:15 |
Alastair_ | and are extremely cheap ^^ | 11:16 |
hagisbasheruk | back l8a , got housework to do | 11:23 |
filipegarcia | how can i record the mobile usb image in a cd? | 14:35 |
filipegarcia | i try but it doesn't boot | 14:35 |
hagisbasheruk | it is a disk image dd if=imagename.img of=/dev/usbdevicename | 14:36 |
filipegarcia | yes i know, but i have to install in a old pc that doesn't support usb boot | 14:37 |
hagisbasheruk | convert img to a bootable iso and burn | 14:40 |
filipegarcia | i try that also but then the cd doesn't boot | 14:43 |
hagisbasheruk | what os is o the pc now ? | 14:44 |
hagisbasheruk | filipegarcia, ? | 14:46 |
filipegarcia | xp | 14:46 |
hagisbasheruk | okay do you have usb ? | 14:47 |
filipegarcia | yes | 14:47 |
hagisbasheruk | and usb flash card ? | 14:47 |
filipegarcia | yes | 14:47 |
hagisbasheruk | update the bios of the old pc to get usb boot option | 14:48 |
hagisbasheruk | or download puppy linux live cd and burn that and boot into puppy with image file on the usb flash | 14:49 |
filipegarcia | ok, thanks | 14:49 |
hagisbasheruk | mount your hdd and usb , move image to hdd and then dd if=image.img of=/dev/sdb or whatever your usb will be | 14:50 |
hagisbasheruk | ohh that still wont help | 14:51 |
filipegarcia | because it wont boot also | 14:52 |
filipegarcia | i guess the update bios would be the better choice | 14:52 |
filipegarcia | but it's lot of work also | 14:53 |
hagisbasheruk | you need magic iso run that in XP and make iso from img | 14:53 |
filipegarcia | but i can record the img to the cd | 14:56 |
hagisbasheruk | try magic iso and make cd bootable | 14:58 |
hagisbasheruk | brb | 14:59 |
filipegarcia | ok | 15:01 |

haggis-AAO-umpc | any progress ?? | 23:39 |
Alastair | nah, i just got back, haven't played with it... | 23:39 |
Alastair | btw. | 23:40 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | i have been tweeking my video and got sdcard readers working here | 23:41 |
Alastair | on the vurtiabox forums i saw some posts that it doesn't support direct3d, only directdraw... how do you play 3d games o_O | 23:41 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | ohh .... mabey i played them in wine | 23:41 |
Alastair | hmm.. ? what tweaking xD i thought the intel driver does all the work | 23:42 |
Alastair | btw. my cardreader works otb :s | 23:43 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | http://www.winehq.org/ | 23:43 |
Alastair | yesterday i tested it with my photo's card... | 23:43 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | :) | 23:44 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | do the tweeks from that acer aspire one link and you gain some FPS | 23:45 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | in GL screensavers are 2 times as fast | 23:46 |
Alastair | wine works, but it's far from a solution :/ | 23:47 |
Alastair | i played hl1:source hl2 and it's episodes through wine, but it's just not the same as native environment... | 23:47 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | i am sure there was a plugin for virtualbox that gave 3d acceleration | 23:48 |
Alastair | and i hear l4d is even worse :/ | 23:48 |
Alastair | does your syndaemon work ? | 23:49 |
Alastair | mine says i'm missing shmconfig or something | 23:50 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | yup | 23:52 |
Alastair | yup it works, or yup you're missing shmconfig too xD | 23:53 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | duno , how to test | 23:54 |
Alastair | open terminal and type syndaemon | 23:54 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | yup , it works | 23:55 |
Alastair | can you post me your xorg.conf in private ? | 23:56 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | i see enable and dissable when i type and move the pad | 23:56 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | sudo syndaemon | 23:56 |
haggis-AAO-umpc | 2 secs | 23:57 |
Alastair | mine says "Can't access shared memory area. SHMConfig disabled?" | 23:57 |
Alastair | probably that's why my touchpad doesn't work | 23:58 |
