Splashtop on USB stick

[Kano]

Well, the script creates 2 partitions, the first is labeld DVMUSB , FAT16, and marked active + installed bootloader. Most easy way is to use it and backup your data first...

Install done

Many thanks Kano.
I tried the scripts and installed succesfully Splashtop on a USB stick.
Though, like badbrad420 it doesnt' work on my EeePC 700 (but works good on my desktop computer).
I wondered if anyone had succesfully modified splashtop to run on it.
Anyway, if i want to modify splashtop, can I use the USB installed version, or do I have to first modify the img via vmware ?

Reset the version file like mentioned in the first post then you can even change already stored sqx files. If you add more no mod necessary. Just put new files to the DVMUSB called partition.

Hi
did you manage to get to the desktop or did it just start flashing, try pressing they left mousepad button and arrows at the same time fast at boot, and it will bypass the bootsplash screen and boot the kernel to desktop. Also if you put some boot options in it will bing up the bootsplash screen but its so blury and disstorted that you can't read it and there is like five mouse-cursors showing but it will still boot the kernel if you start pressing lot of buttons right at boot of ce_bz. I tryed the syslinux.cfg boot options that came with eeetiger puppie linux, and tryed altering it with more boot options like vga=785, vga=915, nofb and lots of other ones mix matching but can only get same flashing or blurry bootsplash. but once you boot it you get to desktop fast, some versions do not have wireless and some do not have sound but ExpressGate_V1205_XPVista.zip from ftp://ftp.asus.com/pub/ASUS/misc/utils/ has sound and wireless and 680x480 or 800x480 res, but its old and only has skype,chat and browser, so install it then copy the kernel.bin for latter. Then install the newest version you can witch has updater built in and wireless but no sound then do update toget new version and you will lose wireless if it even boots so if you ever can't boot or no wireless, sound copy the kernel.bin from the ExpressGate_V1205_XPVista.zip kernel.bin you saved and you will have 680x480 or 800x480 res, sound, wireless, and you have the old desktop theme again but still flashing on boot.

I think that its lots to do with the kernel.bin. would someone be able to add them all together some how, as some work and some don't, but when you use the old one that 10mb+ smaller then you lose some stuff like power-management and your themes but it fixs the res to 680x480
we need you a guru's to do some custom work to /ect,/proc,/bin....ect i'm a newbee so any help would glady taken please thx

Point c)

you will see the config used for some Asus systems. The wifi + res is just a config setting. For the menu I would test other skin0000.* files (rename both), there is for example the EeeBox theme already available, if you are lucky maybe you find the EeePC too - replace always both - md5sum is a nice tool to find the different ones

Or maybe a good howto all in one post, in newbbee language

Hi to all forums members at first

Second , I'd like to know if it's possible using the EEPC version on a MSi Uind U100 (same N270 CPU)
Thanks in advance

[Kano]

The driver should be already included, but you have to enable it in a special config file. Look at c2:

export DI_HAVE_WIFI_LIST='ath0'

in your case i would say. Also you have to look how to load ath_pci correctly. another way would be using ndiswrapper.

Unfortunately , I am not a good one as you are, than I must ready a bit more for understanding what I have to do to get it

[Edit] I got swapped the wifi card default , now I'm using a broadcom 43xx chipset based..
