i just installed debian on my base unit and now i would like to install debian on my eeepc 1005ha.
what debian supports the ath9k wireless?
also can i down load an installer iso and unetbootin the usb to intstall from the stick?
I can't get my Asus Eeepc 1005HA to boot from usb so as to re install Ubuntu. I did it right once - obviously - and now have a malfunctioning dual boot partition. My memory is of having to hit a function key repeatedly once I'd changed the BIOS and restarted the computer. Asus forums all repeatedly give me the same advice - F2 for BIOS, F10 to save settings then it should boot up, but --- nothing --- works.
So. Any additional or creative advice? The computer doesn't have a CD drive. My thumb drive is a Delkin 4gig... are there thumb drives known to work for this operation?
Within a dual boot option two os are now available on the asus eeepc 1005ha,
(1) the windows xp system and in addition (2) the linux 11.1 version of opensuse.
After and also during the installation process of the linux 11.1 os, an error message had occured:
No network found!
I tried to fix it by changing some settings (network manager on/off), but no
improvement could be achieved. Some people argue to wait for a kernel
update higher than *.27.*
Somebody knows something how to fix the network (eth0) internet connection?
Im trying to get installed on my Asus 1005HA(B.Ive tried
Unetbootin 11.1 - HTTP Installation Network method doesn't work with this
Unetbootin Gnome ISO of 11.2 - Can't remember exact error, but it doesn't work.
Unetbootin Network unetbootin - Same as above
Gnome 11.2 + Network with Official USB Installation Guide using DD and if+sync command
So, I have basicly tried everything, but all have failed. So, how can I get 11.2 on my netbook/comp.
P.S.Don't have usb dvd reader, thats why I need usb methods.
I put together a step-by-step guide of how I installed openSUSE 11.1 on my ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1005HA Netbook. I planned on going back and re-installing using my own guide to check for mistakes, etc. but I never seem to get around to it, so I'll just post what I have and let you guys comment if you run into issues. Side notes: This guide assumes you want to wipe out Windows XP and run only openSUSE. Sorry, I'm a Gates hater.
I still haven't figured out how to configure the function keys support for volume controls and wireless. I'm hoping the "eeepc kernel module" mentioned by malcolmlewis here: Suse on my Asus 1005HA - openSUSE Forums will do the trick.
I am running Debian on my eeepc, and whenever I move the display while my computer is on, it often restarts. It turns off at a specific place on the hinge.

I then wiped it and installed Debian Wheezy; installation (from DVD iso unetbootin'd to a USB thumbdrive) went fine, but now when it boots it hangs completely at the login screen. Even the mouse pointer is stuck.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to rebuild an old laptop, EeePc 1001PX and I've issues to boot on the usb on it.
I've followed [URL] .... and the only way I manage to make a usb key that will boot is by hd-media/boot.img.gz:
Code: Select all# zcat boot.img.gz > /dev/sdb
# mount /dev/sdb /media/usb
# cp /tmp/debian-8.4.0-i386-CD-1.iso /media/usb
# sync
# umount /media/usb
I managed to install Debian using this technique to build the usb key.
However I'm having an issue on the laptop with the wifi card (Atheros AR9285) and after a night trying to make it work I'd like to check if I'd would have the same issue Ubuntu.
So I've been desperately trying to make a bootable usb key with Ubuntu on it.... It boots on my laptop but not on this EeePc...
I've tried:
Code: Select allcat /tmp/myimage.iso > /dev/sdb
Code: Select alldd if=/tmp/myimage.iso of=/dev/sdb && sync
I've installed multibootusb [URL] ... and liveUsb install [URL] .... which doesn't work on my EeePc...
Wh only this technique of using is hd-media/boot.img.gz is working on that laptop?
I'd like to try to install Ubuntu via grub using a partition [URL] .... but I need to create 2 partitions and so to boot on a external system.
I've downloaded gparted-live-0.25.0-3-i686.iso but like with Ubuntu I don't manage to create a bootable USB key for this crappy EeePc.
I have used dual boot systems using various versions of windows and Debian for many years and have encountered no problems. However, I have a problem with installing Debian on a EeePC (ASUS PC1201) which uses Winows 7. I can not even get started because I can not understand the information that I have on my hard drive partitions. Windows 7 says that I have the following :
Local Disk(C:) 78.1 GB free of 99.9GB
Local Disk(D:) 49.8 GB free of 83.8.GB
NewVolume(G:) 948 KB of 0.99 GB
Local Disk(F:) 37.9 GB free of 38..0 GB
(Originally the ASUS only had two partitions C: and D: I used Gparted to genetate F: and G:)
gparted-live-0.7.1.5 says that I have the following :-
/dev/sda1 ntfs 992.5 KB
/devf/sda2 ntfs 100.00 GB with 66.09GB unused
/dev/sda3 ntfs 132.88GB with 129.88 GB unused
unallocated 1.00 GB
Debian Squeeze (the net install version) will not install. G was the result of trying to provide some swap space. How do I prepare the hard drive so that Squeeze it will install on F: ?
Since the update to Squeeze, I've lost the ability to paste text by pressing both right and left mouse buttons. I'm using an EeePC, so I have no middle (scroll) button. I use this a lot,because I copy-and-paste IPA pronunciations of words onto worksheets I use at the school I work for*. *input the IPA symbols myself aside from choosing them from lists of symbols in LibreOffice excruciating when you've got to do it every day...

I tried to run Ubuntu 10.10 - Netbook and Ubuntu 10.4 live CDs on my ASUS 901.
Both run well.
But neither reboot after clean install.
After the machines BIOS splash screen there is just a blinking cursor at the left top of the screen. No ubuntu/linux/kernel messages whatsoever.
I tried installing both versions on both SSD-s (4GB & 32GB) and ensured the BIOS was correctly set to boot from the correct one.
I searched the net quite a lot but didn't find anything that could relate to an ASUS 901
Using eeePC1000 with Xandros installed and investigating installation of Ubuntu, especially seeing that there was a netbook version. Have had some problems creating a bootable USB, but followed a thread on the netbook forum that I think will be useful. Before going ahead I wanted some advice on a few things:
- does the Ubuntu OS install over Xandros or is there work to be done post install to clear Xandros out?
- if i want to keep using Thunderbird, StarOffice etc. as supplied with Xandros can I install these to Ubuntu?
Sorry if above all seems obvious: sites I've been to, or books are great at telling you about how good the OS is and how to install but nothing on what happens to the old OS.

View 8 Replies View RelatedPinging out from my netbook (over wifi, to any host) gets ~0% packet loss. Pinging into it (from any host) gets about 50% packet loss.
The router is a Dlink-DIR615 (rev d, running DD-WRT v24-sp2) but all other hosts on it ping eachother fine. I've tried changing routing, disabling IPv6, using older kernels and using wicd, all with no luck. The wireless connections is at 100% most of the time. This could be a new problem with Maverick, but I may not have noticed it before. I believe this is causing web browsing to be really slow and causing SSH timeouts.
I haven't tried madwifi drivers or nsidwrapper yet.
Edit: just booted into Windows and it has the same problem. Could it be a hardware issue? Also tried with a static IP, with no change.
Strangely, a normal ping gets 50% packet loss, but ping -A gets < 1% loss.
Edit 2: no packet loss at all on eth0.

I installed squeeze on my eeepc 1015ped and downloaded the correct firmware-brcm80211 drivers but every time I scan for my network using iwconfig wlan0 scan or wicd, my computer completely freezes. I previously had a solid install running xmonad, and wicd was working like a charm (using the same broadcom driver) but i tinkered too much with it and decided to do a fresh install. I haven't quite run into a problem like this before.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHeres the background: Im running 10.10 desktop on an Asus EeePC. Ive managed to rectify most common problems, but it will not mount a USB. It does not come up in the places menu - I have to manually mount it in the terminal.
However, i can only READ the documents, i cannot edit or save documents to the USB disk - it opens ion read only mode. (Im using open office 3.2 by the way).
I have tried doing this with a new document. It will not save, it is saying the location does not exist and cannot mount the USB. I know this is a mounting USB problem exclusively as it will save documents and allow me to edit them from the home folder, the desktop and the documents folder.
I recently installed F14 on my EEEPC 1000H. Fedora is the distro that fully supports it, at least F13 (with the wireless drivers installed seperately). I noticed that F14 worked totally out of the box, without even having to install wireless drivers. However, there is a problem: If I turn off the wireless (using Fn + F2, I haven't tried any other ways) I then can't turn it back on. I mean, the lights indicating the wireless is working are on, Fedroa still says "Device is not ready".

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to recover a lost partition from a faulty SSD . I've used Linux last time, hence I'm a bit rusty. Still I'm trying to recover a damaged SSD filesystem on a eeePC 900 of a friend of mine ...Here are the details.
Asus eeePC 900
- 4GB primary SSD (OS is installed in here and works fine)
- 16GB secondary SSD (this one is faulty; after a few weeks of problems this friend of mine made some sort of system restore, but Linux couldn't use it correctly and trashed it away with all of it's data ... he couldn't explain it better to me. I'd like to recover the files from within this SSD)
Here's what I did on the eeePC:
1) fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sdb: 16.1GB, 16139354112 bytes
...
/dev/sdb 1 1962 15759733+ 83 Linux
[code]......
I'm trying to find out the right words without generating any inflammatory answers from the community ... I currently kinda have only a Windows Seven installation available to work with ...
If you're still with me I add a few more details. That's all been done on the Win machine.I've managed to load the sdb.img file with Gizmo (it's a little software that mounts img files). Gizmo couldn't load the sdb1 partition inside of it but ... another program called PhotoRec managed to access the mounted disk, found the ext3 partition inside of it (gave me a few errors though) and successfully recover a lot of files :-) Well, a lot, not all of them, and not every recovered file was good That's a first improvement, that tells me sdb.img actually contains valid data even if only partially valid. I don't know if PhotoRec is to be blamed for the failed ones or the SSD image file did not contain enough valid data to let PhotoRec do a good job.
Now I would go back to Linux. I'm well aware that Linux has more potentials than Windows when it comes to handling disk images, loopback devices and so on; but, as I already said earlier, I'm a bit rusty.I'm willing to make a fresh installation of Linux (maybe Ubuntu) on a spare harddisk in order to get full advantage of that and dig deeper but I need directions when it comes to recover that lost partition. I'd like to try and recover the entire partition (not only a few files), maybe rebuilding the ext3 superblock or whatever.Here I'm lost, I don't know what has been developed in the last years regarding partition recovery in Linux, what tools are available, which forums deal with such techniques, I'd like to be pointed in the right direction.

Recently, there were some issues with it so under advisement I reset the EeePC to its factory settings and reinstalled everything. Since then, I have been having problems with my documents through openoffice and was wondering if this was an openoffice problem or something else entirely.
If I save documents, I cannot open them again. I get a little pop up box if I open openoffice and go file/open that asks me to put it in Unicode. If I choose the file from my documents, it opens in texteditor, telling me it is a binary file and to save it will corrupt it. Neither option actually gets me my file; openoffice gives me lovely little squares, and texteditor gives me the # symbol.I cannot open the documents on Windows either.

b) how I can resolve it, and
c) how I can fix my documents (important, uni documents!!)
For a long time, on my netbook Asus EEE pc1000 working fine with my wireless (connecting WEP, WPA). Running with kernel 2.6.29 + rta2860sta v2.2 (package downloaded from the software repository , a user repository)
After somes updates (kernel mainly), all stop working. So I recompile the module v2.2 but don't work. I download from the ralink site the last version , recompile and installed , and appear work fine, but I don't know why the opensuse like to be very annoying and the knetworkmanager don't recognize the device. So , again I download a package from a user repository with the version 2.3 , what appear starts working again. Knetworkmanager recognize the device, but isn't cappable to connect in a WEP network. With WPA works fine.
If I disable the device in knetworkmanager and try configure manually , sometimes work. Probably have some sequence of command what I don't figure out what is. To configure WEP network before this problems I always use only the "iwconfig" command. But I try with "iwconfig" and "iwpriv" and don't work. So , afiter trying a lot of sequence, now I got connected to WEP network, but is very weird how they show this connection,

Ironically, when It was installed, everything worked on the NETbook except the NET. After a bunch of google searchs, finally corrected the problem by loading some files (don't remember what they were). Then 9.10 wanted to be installed so I let it. Now the wifi does not work again.
How can I tell what version I have?
How can I see who is out there in wifi land?
This is my first experience with Linux/ubuntu, and it is not very pleasant.
The wifi radio appears to be on as the blue light is on. I did some search's on this forum and one suggestion was to look at the hardware drivers. The list is blank. There were also sudo commands that would 'fix' an install but without wifi, everything failed. A catch 22?
