Users / Back after some time and a bit confused...

« on: January 16, 2010, 10:01:38 pm »

Hey folks,

has been a long time and my last setting was 7.10. That was fine those days. Now i am back here, and read: wow, 8.10 released.

BUT WAIT: While in 7.10 DVD install everything went out of the box, it seems like 8.10 is still somewhat... messy?! I mean: Install Kubuntu and then double click for LinuxMCE, then afterwards, create the MD images. Especially when reading this:

"The DVD installer per default does not create the initial MD image, as that creation takes a very long time, and most people probably prefer to give 810 a test, without the MDs. If you want to setup MDs, you have to manually run"

Nothing that could be done of course, i just wondered if 8.10 is really finished for use or is still in a "test it, but dont really use it" state. And if 8.10 is ready (i know, there are ALWAYS some bugs to fix) why doesn't it just do it all alone?!

Thank you guys anyway for your great work!

Oh, by the way: is tschak's gaming module now integrated into 8.10? Homepage at least gives the impression it is.

Users / Tested - Terra 3770 Thin Client - not working!

« on: July 20, 2008, 10:13:18 pm »

Hi guys,

as one of our customers wanted to change his network to thinclients, i had the chance to test a Terra 3770 thinclient for some days.

Status so far: there is no way to get even the X server up and running - the Client comes up with: "Failed to setup X" and freezes.


Sorry for posting this here, but there is not "tested" area in the forum and i guess most of the people will look into the forums first.

Users / Shutdown after Movie or after X hours

« on: July 15, 2008, 09:30:42 am »

Hi everyone,

i am using LinuxMCE for about 2 weeks now, and i'm very satisfied (even though i havent installed Houseautomation atm).

I only wanted to ask if it would be possible to get a "Shutdown after Movie" or "Shutdown in 30 Minutes" or so button, so i can turn LinuxMCE off when i'm asleep and dont have to get up to turn it off while sleeping

The other thing: where can i find the german texts so i can edit them? It's a bit irritating in german to speak of an armed house... it's safe or not, but not armed.

Would love to contribute to this project.

Guys, you're great!

Oh.. anything new about Symbian Series 60 3rd Edition?
