    Tutorial Wii Linux (XWhiite 0.2) with working WiFi tutorial

    Can you login as root on your wii? Because is you can do that, than you should be able to mount an usb stick with the extra packages and copy those to your ext3 partition. And you can edit xorg.conf (FIRST MAKE A BACKUP). (just downloaded a movie (700mb) to my 500GB HD in 2 hours with...

    Tutorial Wii Linux (XWhiite 0.2) with working WiFi tutorial

    Well... I've been busy trying to Compile, Hexedit, gedit all sort of options to try and make the kernel to output somekind of 16:9 anamorphic resolution. But it's just not working. And as far as i can read that's because the wii video drivers are all re-used gamecube drivers. So unless someone...

    Tutorial Wii Linux (XWhiite 0.2) with working WiFi tutorial

    What you could try is to contact that guy and ask if he could share his startup elf and how he partitioned his HD. If you have an external HD partitioned the same as his it will probably mount the same as his. It's not difficult if you have some knowledge of computers and linux. But i think that...

    Tutorial Wii Linux (XWhiite 0.2) with working WiFi tutorial

    Step one: buy a 4gb sdhc card - because to get it booting from an external USB is very tricky if you don know what you're doing. And i think it even requires hexediting from what i've read.

    Tutorial Wii Linux (XWhiite 0.2) with working WiFi tutorial

    I've got a question for the "real" wii-linux people here about Xorg. I've read that you can edit the xorg.conf to run at the resolution you want. I've done this, added the line "640x480_60" instead of "pal_60" But that had no effect whatsoever, than i changed it to "720x480_60" just to see if it...

    Do you have BootMii installed as IOS or as Boot2? Because if it's installed as Boot2, than you should be able to start homebrew channel and use wadmanager to reinstall ios60...

    Hacking Coverflow demo

    Great work on coverflow, i really like the simplicity of just the covers that are sliding by. 3D would be cool eyecandy, but also more difficult to find covers for that are all the same resolution back-middle-front wise. Because all the covers would be mapped the same to the game-boxes. If...

    I haven't been gaming for such a long time. Been mostly busy with sleep, hardware tinkering and checking GBAtemp frequently.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Hope you've had a good morning.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    It's going alright thanks :) I know what you mean with gaming time. It's precious where I can get it these days.

    I think that's why I focus on just enjoying single player experiences that aren't too competitive
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    How are you doing?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    There's also this thing where I'm hyperfocused at night and cannot get to sleep.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, I'm doing alright, thanks.

    That must be rough. Productive I'm sure but hard to balance with daily life

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.

    @Maximumbeans, I had a friend who had a glass chess set for their birthday.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It was like all clear and fancy. Tbf I'm not too experienced with chess, but would like to learn someday.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    That sounds really cool
