IT WORKS!!!! HA HA HA (evil laugh)
1386 fps in glxgears
AND
40% strength on wifi while in a detached garage and the router is in a basement over 30 meters away. I'm feeling good!
Okay, this wasn't all that straightforward so I'm going to recap my process (props go out to those that came before me):
Installed Karmic on Asus EEE PC 1101ha
1. Added:
Code:
deb http://apt.jolicloud.org robby main directory jolicloud
to repositories in synaptic.
2. Run a full update/upgrade in synaptic. Probably not needed but it didn't hurt I'm sure.
3. Run from console:
Code:
sudo aptitude install -R jolicloud-poulsbo
sudo aptitude install -R linux-image-jolicloud linux-image-jolicloud-atom
sudo /etc/jolicloud-netbook-config.d/poulsbo.sh
4. Because grub was failing to load after a reboot I'd suggest this next step if you're having problems. Edit /etc/default/grub
Go down to the line that looks like this:
Code:
# Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux
#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true
Uncomment the entry so it looks like this:
Code:
# Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux
GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true
5. Now edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf so it looks like this:
Code:
Section "Device"
Identifier "GMA500"
Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
Option "DRI" "on"
Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"
Option "IgnoreACPI" "yes"
Driver "psb"
EndSection
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
6. From terminal, run
7. Reboot
Now it looks like I may have an Ubuntu install that I can use for a while. Until tinkering makes me break it again. Have fun everyone!
