Hacking DSLinux - Is that it?

[retman]

When i boot up DSLinux on my R4DS i'm presented with a keyboard and a little 'K' at the top right side of the touch screen.



Is that all DSLinux does, gives you a keyboard?

Obviously not, its 12 megs.

DSLinux is a text based operating system, like MS-DOS only alot better.

DSLinux is Linux for the DS.

If you don't know what Linux is, stay away from DSLinux. Simple enough.

Read the wiki for dslinux, it tells you everything you need to know.

Yeah, do you expect the DS to run GNOME/KDE?

I guess the only way to input is keyboard. But of course, I didn't look at the wiki yet. Maybe there are shortcuts you can make? er? I wish I knew how to use linux. :'(

ssh and vim are really useful. Not a whole lot but its a start.

 

[retman]

I got it working, i was using the wrong 'build', but sadly it awful. I deleted it.

Thanks for the 'Help' people >_>

DS linux blows.

I don't know what the point of it is, TBH. Computer native OSes on a DS, pah....

You can go a lot farther with Ubuntu on a laptop. So DSLinux compared to that....well.

Well, a lot is actually going on behind the scenes. Like a native sdl port, so you'll be able to run sdl based games through DSLinux. Plus telnet and SSH are very useful. If you have a Linux PC running an SSH server, you can basically run programs on your ds that you can normally only run on your PC.
