Just wanted to see if anyone has working solutions to Multitouch for the trackpad.  I have been trying to use ALPS Drivers but have not been successful.  Any help with this would be great.

[ Mysticus C*]

Hi mate.
Just passing by to say that you´re such a nice guy and is doing an amazing job to new users of Samsung NC10 netbook.
Browsing the whole topic - I read almost all your threads - made me feel like having an NC10.

Maybe next year I´ll buy one.

Keep up with the wonderfull work around OS X.

Thanks for the update. I got it to work so far. Ill update with how it went with msiwindowsx86 when finished.
Btw 16mb, that s a HUGE guide! Well done and thanks.

[ Mysticus C*]

OK everything is ready!

Bike town for chud, chain0, combo update, NC10 drivers/update fixer package
First post for INSTALL/UPDATE GUIDE

Breakingbad: This machine rocks, i highly recommend you to get one

Pezmc: Yeah it is kinda big, and took me a long time to finish all the screen caps, and the small bits... I still didnt finish the clone guide, so didnt include it in the guide yet, but phew... I m so tired already...

Now comes the best part....

What are your problems? thoughts? opinions? wishes to see in next NC10 package?

Wow, this is great! I can't wait til my Dell 1490 comes in so I can get this totally up and running!

I do have a question though: why do I make 3 new partitions before installation when I'm only installing os x on one? I assume it's to change 1 to the mac file system and the other for ntfs?

good question... those are for next steps which i have not explained yet...

osx1 is for MAIN
osx2 is for CLONE of the MAIN for safety testings of updates... if you brick clone partition, you wont loose anything (you will understand and appreciate this over time trust me)
osx3 is for download and etc in case... you can keep it as dos/fat partition as well, to transfer/read files between windows and osx...

however osx1 and osx2 has to be same mac osx journaled!

answer enough?

Ahhhhh, looks like I jumped the gun a bit. I'll prob keep the 3rd partition in dos/fat format to swap files between the 2, like you said.

Thank you so much for everything!

Well well! Just as I was thinking of getting an NC10 and just as I was idly searching for the OS X solution, this thread pops up!

Fantastic work Mysticus.

One question: if I wanted to repartition the Windows C drive down a little, would I run into problems? And if I wanted to remove it completely, could I just install OS X as my only OS?

Ok .. two questions

Thank you so much for everything!

also be carefull with the back cover when you receive the wifi card... While opening the back cover be very gentle with the monitor connection areas... the hook parts are very sensitive... use some plastic phone car or something while parting those apart from the hook and the battery areas......

lan issue i dont know ... but wifi may get a solution if official update from oem is released (god knows when? tomorrow? next year?) if you wanna wait for it, it is your decission, i just wanted a quick solution, which is not too expensive, because this thing without internet will suck... it will be only a media center to play your music and videos without internet...

Honestly, I'd prob just get a dell 1490 card. It works OTB with OS X as well as XP and there's no need to rely on upcoming drivers that may not even function as well as you would hope (on top of the fact that who knows when the drivers will be released. I've read that they were supposed to come out very soon, but I think the initial dates that they promised have already come and passed).

::EDIT::

Forgot to mention this little tidbit too - the 1490 card is pretty damn cheap. I got it for $25 shipped, which is actually higher than what I've heard other people have got it for, but I bought it off somebody in the states on ebay and not from Hong Kong/China.

[Mr_CP]

Could someone email me the guide please? i've reached my rapidshare download limit lol, any help would be appriciated

thanks for doing the guide and the update package Mysticus C*

[ricpersi]

Hey Mysticus C*! just wanted to thank you for all the time you put on this project!

if Mysticus C* doesn't mind I'll up a megaupload mirror for his guide.. but before uploading I'd like to know if it's ok..

[Mr_CP]

For those wanting to change out the wifi card on their NC10 follow this guide http://www.laptopmag...ive.aspx?step=1 its to replace the HDD but its the samething for the Wifi card also.

usb working...
memory card slot working (only tested with sd so far)


should not be a problem with an iphone at all...

ricpersi: please leave it as it is... because it is easier for me to control files from one location... having it mirrored to other places will make me do additional work on changing things... i have MU account and thinking of mirroring already, i have even direct link with no waiting, but these take up more bandwidth and having more mirror slows down the process...
