$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Varemenos', '
')Also, another familiar on how to add a "Reboot to ArchLinux" option on CM7 reboot menu?


That really is not a simple task. Well, simple yes but it is also time consuming. You would have to decompile some of the cm7 framework and edit the smali inside. If you are good at building android from source, you could always wait until CM releases their source to the public and add it into the jar itself using java which would be a bit easier if you know java. I guess another option would to write an app that passes the reboot <option> command to the android shell but again, that would need java experience.

After playing a bit with razor-qt i switchet to kde netbook mode and it also works nice (after disabling desktop effects).

I couldn't find yet the reason for the random reboots, also I've found that the packages downloaded booting archlinux download corrupted but they download just fine if we are using chroot.

From WebOs I'm using the following to do the chroot:

mount -o bind /proc /media/linux/proc
mount -o bind /sys /media/linux/sys
mount -o bind /dev /media/linux/dev
chroot /media/linux /bin/bash
source /etc/profile

Just in case that helps someone.

I've made a bad looking video trying to show how nice kde netbook works

Razor Qt: http://youtu.be/9d6PIKHHC6M
KDE Netbook: http://youtu.be/pef8xHBlm7Y

Still couldn't find a way to show the keyboard widget or use the maliit keyboard without composite issues or gtk applications segfaulting all over the place.

So did you install kde, kde-meta or the minimal kde (kdebase kde-l10n-yourlanguagehere phonon-vlc)?

That's what I installed a couple weeks ago.
Found it to be slow and unresponsive.

How's yours running for you on the new, modern, ArchLinuxARM for TouchPad?

Well it seems to run fine but I could not find a way to get to the onscreen keyboard because of the lack of a menu. It had 4 categories of apps but no Accessories menu.

you can configure to show all categories but even with that, after launching the normal keyboard (matchbox) it doesn't stick to foreground and after touch anything in the desktop it just goes to the background and without binding any phisical key to alt+tab we can't bring it back, thats why i was trying to use the keyboard widget of kde active or maliit.
