Re: WebDT with some neat WinCE apps
Thats awesome! Where did you find those? All I could find were links to places that said they had CE apps but they really only had smartphone apps. Seriously seeing that full screen video inspired me to build a front end to mythtv. Dont know if it works but I just posted it. Thank you for sharing th...

Re: Attn. Everyone who reads this, we need Ubuntu help! Add to the bug in launchpad
Made contact with an ubuntu developer. They have made a request that will help figure out why Ubuntu breaks graphics on boot. If someone has the opportunity please try start install or even boot up. When it fails reboot in live cd mode to a linux that you know to works on the DT. Once there look in ...

I did order another however its not going to get to me until Weds of this coming week. Anyway on top of that the Gigabyte motherboard that was in my HTPC Mythbuntu box went out so I...

Hello, My name is Daryl. I go by the handle quotaholic here. I started this site because of a dream I had back in 2002. I had just started a new job with a home theater and home automation contractor when they dropped me off at a home that was enormous. It was over 28,000 square feet. Loaded with am...

XP Embedded
Reports are that XP Embedded will work on a WebDT366. Question is does anyone have such a configuration working? Unconfirmed reports indicate that you need to use a windows deployment build service to make an embedded client.
Can anyone offer more insight?

Re: NimbleX 2009 on WebDT ...soon

Again I am currently without a linux box and on my neighbors internet signal. Its going to be a few days before I can get back online and do anything to contribute. So, When Bo...

Re: Nimblex sub 100 distro
Awesome Work Fleegman! Have you tried any of the different desktops? I wanted to try e17 as it can have a very low memory footprint. I cant say much at the moment but please don't dismiss Nimblex just quite yet. I feel bad as my computer is on the fritz and now comcast botched my internet install. I...

places where you can build your own linux
Two places that I know of so far are: http://custom.nimblex.net and http://susestudio.com/ Suse Studio is in alpha stages right now. Its quite comprehensive allowing you to chose from text only, minimal x server, and two other base templates to build upon. From there add the packages you want from c...

Re: Nimblex sub 100 distro
Hey Fleegman, Very very interesting. We are taking two different approaches. I think that may explain why we are seeing different results. Thank you for posting! For all of my tests I used an usb external cd rom drive with the iso file burned to the disc. Ditto with usb hub, keyboard and mouse. Iron...

Re: Nimblex sub 100 distro
Status, Efforts have not stopped on Nimblex and getting the touch screen working. It may not be as involved as anticipated however it is going to take a little time. In the mean time I made a discovery about NimbleX that anyone should know. It is a live distribution however Nimblex allows you to sav...

Re: Other Possibilities
Can someone else please try Puppy linux? When I try I cant get my usb mouse to work. Its the only usb mouse I have. At first I didnt think puppy was going to work. Especially when I saw the script that called the x windows server passing by in repetition. Got a phone call and while on the phone I sa...
