HuRRaCaNe: Well, unless they've come up with a new type of EG, it should certainly be there. Have you tried to look for it on a hidden partition?
(First, unhide it using gparted, for instance.)

OK, even without a Splashtop hardware I couldn't resist, so I attached the CE_BZ header to your program and tried in VirtualBox. It works right but the runtime is about 5 seconds (from grub to grub...

Man, you're awesome! This is precisely the reason why I want to become a real programmer. :D To have the absolute control over what my machine does. :)
I myself won't be able to test it for you but...

Actually, you can talk to grub. There's the "grub-set-default" script which you can invoke before reboot.

I'm using it in combination with EG button because I couldn't reboot back to linux...

Yes and yes. It will work with any operating system you can boot from grub. That includes even various versions of Windows.
Regarding menu.lst: First stays in EG directory, second goes to root, just...

levrin: Thank you for this information. I was curious about this myself but so far have been too lazy to actually do the research. :D

Anyway, what was driving me crazy about the boot was that...

Well, that's not an easy one... as I tried to explain, VMware uses its own replacement menu instead of gnome panel, so when you switch to Unity the panel is automatically hidden.

I don't know...

Well, I don't know, but the latest VMware Workstation is actually quite good. Besides, you won't get drag&drop in VirtualBox. :D

About the cloning: No offense, but maybe you did something wrong,...

Well, regarding the seamless acpect, VMware is a clear winner.
If you run your VM in Unity mode, you'll get a perfect desktop integration.
I think it's way better than the seamless mode in VBox,...

About the activation problem:
I believe there is a solution and it shouldn't be too difficult to get working.
It's not a question of some miraculous hacking, you just need to know which files are...

Regarding the touchpad issue (which I am also having - it is a common problem, unfortunately), you may wanna look here:
http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=89461

There is a proposed fix...

There is one more tip: To achieve smooth playback you have to uncheck "Unredirect fullscreen windows" in Compiz settings. I even have a feeling that when using non-composite window manager like...

Well, you need packages libva and xvba-video (from AUR).
And don't forget to use ATI's proprietary driver catalyst in order to get this working.

With these, you shouldn't have any trouble...

Well, I've just got this eee and decided to try Arch Linux on it. I know that here you're trying to get it working in ubuntu but I thought I just let you know you can have VLC-VAAPI working...

Yes, you're right. Using grub4dos it works. I just got my 1215B yesterday and have successfully managed to chainload arch linux.

Just a note: Express Gate came installed in a hidden fat32...

Ok well, in VirtualBox it just freezes like everything else except grub4dos...
I tried

title minik
rootnoverify (hd0)
chainloader +1But that doesn't necessarily mean it couldn't work on...

You mean you would switch the buttons?
EG button -> Windows
Power button -> Ubuntu

Clever, I haven't thought of that...
I'll try to test it in VirtualBox and see what happens.

No one interested?

OK, I may have a solution for booting another distro with ASUS ExpressGate Cloud.
But, as I haven't got any real ASUS box (at least not yet, I am planning to buy eee soon), I was testing the boot...

Let me share this great finding with you:
I was trying to run .jar from fat32 flashdrive (simply by double-clicking) and it didn't work because of the lack of executable bit. And as we know, on...

Thank you, that's exactly what I wanted to hear.
I was able to completely free up the reserved space by setting tune2fs -m to 0%.
Worked like a charm!

Thanks for your information.
I would like to ask though how is it with the overall efficiency when I start decreasing the reserved space?
How exactly is this reserved space being used?

Yes, I have the same problem. Just bought a new internal 2TB drive and after creating single ext4 partition it reports 90 GB used! That can't be normal I think.

That's odd. I have pretty much the same configuration (VMware 7.1, Ubuntu 10.04 x64...)
When you run vmware in console what errors does it report? Can you post the output? I'm no expert but maybe...

I was dealing with the same problem today and I was able to solve it by editing .profile in my home directory.

All you have to do is add this code at the end of the file:

export...
