Sharp PC-Z1 NetWalker / Working Netbook Remix On Netwalker
« on: May 27, 2010, 06:49:02 pm »
I have been very keen on getting this functional on my Netwalker and it seems to be working. It does require mixing packages which may potentially cause problems. This was scraped together from various sources.

Add lucid to /etc/apt/sources.list:
Note: It is probably better to remove lucid from apt sources.list file or alternatively to have both jaunty & lucid available use apt pinning described below.
This is required before betbook-launcher-efl will run:

Auto launch:
Add netbook-launcher-efl to
Preferences -> Startup Applications
To get the remix theme without requiring Ctrl-Alt-Esc:
In System tools/Configuration editor -> set apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop to false,
or

Ubuntu Netbook Edition 2D:
Then log out and in the the GDM login screen, chose "GNOME" instead of "Ubuntu Netbook Edition" or "Ubuntu Netbook Edition 2D"
For those living on the edge (i.e. make a recovery disk first): you could try Apt Pinning:
Add lucid & jaunty to /etc/apt/sources.list:
sudo vi /etc/apt/preferences
Then do:
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude safe-upgrade -> this may take a while to sort out conflicts
Notes on pinning:
Install package from specific version:
apt-get install -t lucid package
or
aptitude -t lucid install package
Check what versions of "package" are available:
apt-cache policy package
Keep a package from being updated:
echo package hold | dpkg --set-selections
Restore:
echo package install | dpkg --set-selections
Alternatives to pinning -> compile source from a development version:
Add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list
