Re: Untested installer theory

OK.

Debian has an installer that works fine on the WebDT...Why would I need to modify the .iso with another Debian file?

So my question is, what distro has an installer that does not work?

For the installer that does not work, what files would you replace?

Re: Untested installer theory

I'm not sure  I follow.  What are you trying to accomplish?  If the files must match the original .iso what files will you be replacing?

Re: Proud Owner DT366 & DT369

Sounds like the drives are wiped clean or at least the boot loader is. Try to boot a live CD to see if the drives are empty.  You can boot a live Linux CD, or even a WinXP CD and at the drive selection prompt it will show you disk partitions an usage percent. Sounds like you just need to reinstall t...

Re: Touchscreen doesn't work

Have you verified the hardware works, under WnCE or possible the nimblex live environment?

Re: anyone interested in a little test?

Your download link is inactive... I tried to boot the current version...No GO! I don't think hardware is supported.  There were several errors, mainly detecting and reading hd0. I am not fully understanding your post.  Most all the linux .img files on this forum are created with a linux command DD. ...

Re: Recharging problem

Since you have several, you should be able to swap hardware/batteries to determine if the issue is the battery or the DT itself.

Re: PCMCIA or USB to Ethernet network card?

What OS are you needing support for.  Getting a PCMCIA 10/100 card should not be an issue since you can use a 32bit card.  Getting one with WinCE drivers avail would be another story. Check here for a great list of WinCE compatible hardware.  Most if not all will most likely be 16bit, which often dr...

Re: Building linux kernel for DT366

I have not compiled kernel.  You need the Atlas button driver.  I believe this get built into the kernel.  This is really beyond my skill set. The touch screen is Penmount 9000.  You can download drivers from penmount.com. The issue with Penmount, is the Kernel and x-server versions must match the d...

Re: Wake event has been set, but where?

I saw an interesting tid-bit from the logs.  Perhaps a BIOS wake alarm can be set.

I'll have a look at udev. I seem to have different log activity from your original...Not sure if it is just the network card or other.

Wireless WiFi after suspend

Do you have wireless working after suspend?  Using the original Cisco Airo 350, I can't get wifi backup after suspend.  Not even restarting networking, nor wicd helps.  I have to restart the tablet.  I even tried adding acpi-tools, which did not help.  I'll suspect I need to unload the module prior ...
