I’ve recently seen this problem on 1.1 too. I think it is now fixed with an update of kernel-mamba-nongpl-wl that will be available in 1-2 hours, or you can fix it yourself by replacing package kernel-mamba-wireless-backport with kernel-mamba-wireless and rebooting.

If you can cable-connect just do:

sudo apt-get install kernel-mamba-wireless

The driver is now available in milestone1 1.1. You need to install the package kernel-mamba-nongpl-wl. Make sure that the module (wl.ko) gets loaded in place of the b43 and b43legacy modules.

[Silvan]

In devel this is currently supported by the broadcom_sta module, If you use the stable release you might want to upgrade or I’ll see if the driver can be backported.

Probably the Flash-1GB media has a problem after desktop user login. I’m not too surprised by this because as I said this media hasn’t been tested for months.

The bootusb method is more often tested, so I would suggest to try to solve the problem here. First, did you try with stable (livecd/installdvd/livegames/livestudio+bootusb) or devel (livecd/livedvd/livegames+bootusb) version? As Ercole said first ensure that you are using the same version for the iso media and the bootusb archive. Then when you boot you can select the “Debug” choice to get information on where the boot problem is.

[Silvan]

First you need to install dhcpcd in milestone 1.1, before trying what Ercole suggests.

The Flash-1GB version doesn’t have a default password and I think you probably hit a bug in the automatic login. This is because this media is not actively tested at the time and I did not sync some changes for configuring autologin with KDE 4. If you are able to access the installed filesystem try setting

AllowRootLogin=true

in file /opt/kde/share/config/kdm/kdmrc

Hi. The tool for mastering openmamba is called makedist, it is available for installation but it has never been used outside our development environment so I expect you need some instruction and fixes to make this work for you. Anyway I think the first part of the work would be packaging and testing lxde for openmamba. If you want to discuss on development details I would first recommend you to subscribe to the openmamba-devel list (see http://www.openmamba.org/lists/ page for details).

If it worked before try removing the file /etc/wicd/wired-settings.conf. If it never worked, which version of openmamba are you using?

Hi,

can you please explain what you mean with “funny looking screen” when you boot with option 8? Isn’t that a black screen with text messages on it as it is supposed to be?

We are working on it, torrent links are being made available at:

http://www.openmamba.org/distribution/download.html

We are working on making distributors available too, but this might be achieved more rapidly if enough users switch their downloads to torrents.

Thank you for reporting.

Hi,

to investigate the problem you might open a bug at bugs.openmamba.org attaching your /var/log/Xorg.0.conf file and the output of ls /etc/alternatives.

Regards

Silvan

Sorry, I don’t have experience on this tool but if you have a test case in linux I might be able to investigate.

You may also post a request/bug to the developers of the project at https://www.uitwisselplatform.nl/projects/libewf/.
