11 November 08: A new beta of Wii Linux (Codename Miight) has been released. It has been worked on by Muzer and now includes a GUI (XORG) with wiimote support as a mouse and it has an on-screen keyboard as well as many other applications. Wifi is still untested.
A new beta version of WiiLinux has been released. It now sports a GUI, Wiimote support (as a mouse), an on-screen keyboard (for those without a USB keyboard) and also includes a handful of applications.
Installation - miight-full_beta1
1) Partition off your SD as per http://www.gc-linux.org/wiki/WL:whiite-lin..._of_the_SD_card
2) Install the whiite kernel as per that page as well
3) Install the miight filesystem as per that page, but use http://hbcapps.com/miight-full_beta1.tar.gz as the filesystem
4) Remove and USB mass storage devices (they can be reconnected once it boots)
5) Boot the wii, choose whiite, wait until you see the GUI login prompt, wait a bit more, it should autologin, then wait until the X turns into a normal cursor. It is now ready to use.
6) You can use a USB keyboard or mouse, or the wiimote (press A to synch it).
7) You right click (B on the wiimote) on teh desktop to get up the apps list.
8) Choose an app, and fiddle all you like!
9) If you don't have a USB keyboard, load xvkbd from the menu. Warning: This takes up half the screen :s
