Inspired by the ExpressGate thread I decided to take a shot or two at HPs QuickWeb found in newer HP laptops.
So far I've figured out the following:
The sad part is that I have yet to get a terminal interface.
I've tried statically compiling rxvt from source and modifying the runskype script in va-skype-2.0.0.72.sqx (/skype a really odd path to place binaries in though), but this just seems to break Skype... probably a compilation error.
Anyone know a quick way to get a hold of the rxvt binary from Puppy Linux?
So far I've figured out the following:
- It seems to boot from the Windows 7 partition, boot directory is "C:\SwSetup\QuickWeb\QW.SYS"
- As expected you can create sqx files in exactly the same as with ExpressGate
- All sqx files in C:\SwSetup\QuickWeb\QW.SYS seems to autoload in alphabetical order
This means you can overwrite the original Skype client without removing it by increasing a number or something - you get the idea - If you bork any of the original apps (installation incomplete error), run the QuickWeb repair tool from Windows
It will only overwrite the standard files - All of your WiFi passwords are automatically stored in plain text in WifiInfo.ini
Not that it's too hard to get them from Windows (haha), but I don't like the idea of unencrypted passwords - xterm not included
The sad part is that I have yet to get a terminal interface.
