Announcing the release of Complete PicUntu 4.4 Distribution

[Bob21]

Ahh thank you. I missed that one :-)

[poul50]

upgrade ?

The previous state is remembered by the system.

Do delete all previous network ports.

vi /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

Find and delete all wlanXX entries in this... and you should be good to go.

Oh and to not do the step ove - I have to release a small minor upgrade.. in the meanwhile.

vi /etc/rc.local

Add a line
insmod /lib/modules/rkwifi.ko

( a tmp solution, till I get you the minor version upgrade)


Alok

hey alok... when do you plan to upgrade and maybe full version ?

Problem with extracting files on sdcard

This is a great work and I want to see this working on my device.
But, I have problem with extracting files on sdcard.
I give command as root: tar -xzf skeleton.tgz(or bazicgui.tgz) -C /media/linuxroot .... and after a while ..... say about 1 minute ... I receive a lot of tar erors: cannot stat or read-only file system. I tried that with my installed Ubuntu 10.04, live Ubuntu 10.04 and live 13.04 (with sudo -i of course). I obtain the same error messages. After running command I have a lot of folders and files on sdcard, but, I think that not all files had been copied.
I tried this on two sdcards formatted ext4 with gparted... the same errors.
Is my laptop card reader broken?
Any idea?
Thank you.


Edited after:
It seems that my sdcard reader has problems with mini sd adaptor card. I had miniSD card with adaptor. After put card in usb sdcard reader, I had no errors.
But still cannot enter picuntu. Box freezes when I enter recovery mode.

Installed on Cozyswan MK822 - RK3188, Mali, ap6210 wireless, BOX

- I installed ap6210_after7iul13 kernel in recovery partition and basic gui on sdcard. It looks good. Thanks for your work.

I have following problems:

2. I cannot wake up ap6210 wireless - in wicd I see no network;
ifconfig show only eth0 and loop.
3. I cannot wake up eth0 (ifconfig show it).
Command "service networking restart" freezes at "networking stop/waiting".
In syslog:

usb 2-1.2: new full speed USB device number 4 using usb20_host
usb 2-1.2: New USB device found, idVendor=0fe6, idProduct=9700
usb 2-1.2: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
usb 2-1.2: Product: USB 2.0 10/100M Ethernet Adaptor

3. The display is bigger than the TV screen. This happens with both kernels (1080 or 720). How can I scale down the display?

I could not find to run script picuntu-da-server.sh.

XBMC Won't Run on Rikomagic MK802 IV LE (Linux Edition)

So if mali 400 hw doesn't work i think the XBMC HW aceleration doesn't work right?

I successfully installed XBMC from the Ubuntu App Store, but it won't run at all under Rikomagic's factory installed PicUntu firmware as of 11/15/2013. Have confirmed XBMC not supported with Cloudsto UK, who sold me the device.

So if mali 400 hw doesn't work i think the XBMC HW aceleration doesn't work right?

I tried XBMC on MK802IV and MK802III and it works very well on Android with graphics acceleration. I also tested Picuntu and Linuxiumone but they go too slow without graphics acceleration. In this web: [3D HW acceleration on Picuntu Linux (Mali400)] someone did something to run OpenGL ES2.0 in Picuntu but it did not work.

The latest versions of Picuntu and Linuxiumone are working very well . No doubt you will continue improving and soon I will be able to get rid of Android on my PC Stick.



Thank you very much for your great work.

I tested a Logitech Pro 9000 with Picuntu 4.4 on my T428 and seemed to work to fine. Tried multiple resolutions from VGA to 720P.
