Samsung NC10 UK revision, Updates / Installation / Modding etc, stuff will be here Options

I fiddled with that, without succes. I can use the + button to add a device named 'Airport' but as soon as I want to activate it, it disappears and 'Bluetooth PAN' comes up.

I'll try to find similar problems with the 4311 chipset...

well just remove the bluetooth pan, and restart, to let it find interface by itself... dont add it yourself...

see if it works... also what is the name of your 4311 chip brand card? dell? netgear? or noname other brand?

[Marijnr]

It's a Dell DW1490 with Broadcom BCM4311KFBG chipset. I tried to delete Bluetooth Pan, but the minus-symbol is blanked out so I can't delete it...

[update]

Fixed! Thanks to this thread; the script by mcsmart did the trick. I'm a happy camper

first of all, thanks Mysticus for your hard work. I finally asked my friend to download your distro and put it on my nc10 dual booting with msiwindosx (lol osxes dual boot)

I found a few differences between your distro and msiwindosx, some are good while other minor things are missing in your release.
1. no need to use your "usb_fix 1.3" to fix usb issue as in msiwindosx.
2. Executive Bit was required to enable in order to boot nc10_jas (msiwindosx doesn't need this)
3. Touchpad setting is not presented in Preference (msiwindosx lets me adjust sensitivity and Tapping on touchpad as a click)
4. last but not least, your release has the latest version (10.5.6)

What is Executive Bit? what does it do?
Is it possible to borrow files from msiwindosx to enable the touchpad settings? I really like to be able to tap on it as a click.

Overall, I am really satisfy with your distro. It works great OTB.

i dont play games on osx machines mate, but i can only speculate... using additional monitor (only extended desktop)

connect additional monitor (dont mirror it, bcoz mirror is not working, only extended desktop to additional monitor...)
set your other monitor as primary...
at higher resolution, in the other monitor should let you start the game i suppose...
next thing to do is, change resolution to 800x600 (if it allows resolution change in game menus),
save and quit
change primary monitor back to built in lcd,
disconnect other monitor
start the game (i m just speculating that game allows resolution change)
game should start in 800x600 (which the internal monitor should support)
now you can change back to 1024x600 and save it...?

if resolution change and save in external monitor does not work, you can try the fake resolution method, but i dont remember where i read the method... it was a long time ago, dont remember which section it was in...

yeah oddly enough thats what i did... and you are right the mirror doesnt work not sure how to turn that off now...LOL
i am giving up on civ iv read a lot of people havoing similar trouble in pc acer one same thing they couldnt figure it out either....I thought it would be a simple edit the ini file

i have downloaded the 10.5.6 NC10 Iso from shragle using the linklist at biketown. But there is no part20!  Can you upload this file (about 50 Mbyte) at shragle or rs?

thank you very much

Tip for people struggling to find trackpad settings :

When I was trying to get the trackpad settings to appear in preferences i found that when I removed a prefpane from the second line (where the trackpad settings should be) that the trackpad prefpane took it's place, almost like the line was full so trackpad would be hidden, instead of making a new line of panes.

So if you are struggling to see the trackpad prefpane, check in the view menu along the top when in system preferences as this should show all prefpanes available.

Is this the same part20 that was in the rar file available on demonoid? If so, I have it and can probably put it somewhere for you?

[ Mysticus C*]

for the shragle links, i m asking the person to send me the correct links... sorry guys for inconvenience, i have not done those links myself...

camden: i think it is the same links same person made the shragle as well...

Hi, m8. All the .rar files we downloaded from Shragle have this format: "NC10Jax861056InE23_Myst.partXX.rar" (where XX is the file number). So if the file you have is named "NC10Jax861056InE23_Myst.part20.rar" then it is definitely the one we need. I guess mbato may have forgotten to upload that part to Shragle, or maybe forgot to include the link to the last part in the download list on Bike Town.

Anyway, if you can upload this last rar file to rapidshare and post the link, you would be a star!

Many thanks regardless,

YC

Installed and working great - used the 10.5.6 version from Demonoid.

Wasn't prepared to fiddle with wifi so swapped for DW1390 and it was picked up immediately by OSX.

Thank you for all your work Mysticus - do appreciate it.

Hello all,

no replies from me recently, on holiday in Spain. The NC10 has been excellent, I have just *one* problem with what's supposed to be working. The trackpad control panel in System Preferences isn't showing up/appearing/working. I tried the package linked to on the 1st post, but no joy.

Other than that, looking forward to the headphones working, and all is excellent.

Thanks again Mysticus C*

press f2 at start go to bios!!!!!!!!!!!
set your EDB setting to ENABLE!!!!
Save and QUIT!!!!!!

mudzilla: see the post#1 go to bike town, check samsung nc10 files section, and than find/get the trackpad (if u didnt finger anything) or trackpad full (if you did finger and break some drivers

all others: missing shragle link

[giliathstod]

Had same problem with Cyclic reboot. This worked for me:


Boot using "-s" flag then type ->

/sbin/mount -uw /

passwd root <- Type any password you want

touch /var/db/.AppleSetupDone

reboot

@Mysticus
I really had the same problem I did enable EDB but hat cyclic booting and I wasn´t able
to see the Welcom screen. (I have the German NC10).
Above solution then made it.

thanx.
