Re: Rhobuntu -Ubuntu on Rhodium with wifi

reserved for FAQS

1.How Big is the file?
Just about 1.3 Gb

2.Can I have Mr.Pippy's Android, Windows Mobile and Rhobuntu?
Yes you can. Use caution to not merge files with the android because Rhobuntu uses alot of the same name files but they are located in the Ubuntu folder and there is no need to take them off of it.

3.My wifi is not working?Try doing this taken from the XDA site many thanks.
Known issues concerning WiFi
-auto discovery won't work. You have to use the workaround below
-it seems that we can't establish connections to Ad-Hoc networks. Connections to WiFi routers, however, work fine.
How to establish a WiFi connection:
i)Open lxterminal and run
Code:

iwlist eth0 scan essid YOUR_AP

where YOUR_AP is the SSID of your WiFi router.
ii) Now click on that connection monitor icon near the time applet. After you click refresh your router (and perhaps some other APs) should appear in the list. First click on Properties and scroll down till the very end. There you can choose your encryption and enter the password. Hit OK when done. After that you just have to click on Connect and WiFi should work. I hope.

3. How to acces my files on my sd card while on Rhobuntu?
open lxterminal and execute mountsd.

I have.

You have to do this to get it to work:

1)Open lxterminal and run
Code:

iwlist eth0 scan essid YOUR_AP

where YOUR_AP is the SSID of your WiFi router.
2) Now click on that connection monitor icon near the time applet. After you click refresh your router (and perhaps some other APs) should appear in the list. First click on Properties and scroll down till the very end. There you can choose your encryption and enter the password. Hit OK when done. After that you just have to click on Connect and WiFi should work. I hope.

...

The above blurb was copied directly from the Ubuntu on Rhodium thread at xda.

When I did this, I found that /etc/resolv.conf was not updated with the DNS information for my network so I updated it by hand. After doing so, I was able to start firefox and browse the web.

Edit: Oh, I see the lxterm steps were already posted to this thread. Well, yeah, you have to do those.

Thanks. I guess I jumped the gun, the post must have still been in progress as I didn't see it at first. Will give it a shot.

I am impressed with the speed, I was expecting lots of sluggish behavior. pretty cool stuff.

Re: Rhobuntu -Ubuntu on Rhodium with wifi

This is awesome. Now we can tripple boot our tp2. The only thing I can complain about (Short of having limited linux knowledge) is the symbol keys do not work. Still keep us posted. This is great stuff.
