Jean-Pierre, 1. Set -Bacpi-user-options=0x0 (or 0x2) during Grub boot. 2. Use a known good Wi-fi USB stick or daughtercard for WEP. 3. Use VESA for most display things. For the most part, most oi-devs should have working hardware with OI (or speak up, if not). ~ Ken Mays On Thursday,

Hi Alexander, I can try to build nagios as well. We already use nagios on linux but have quite a few oi machines, so I'd like to just get them monitoring as well. I've got a build zone, so I'll try what you say. Thanks! Richard On 2/13/2014 10:41 AM, Alexander Pyhalov wrote: Hello,

Keith, I'm not sure if you were aware of this, but the GSoC program organizers have in the past expressed a prefer that related projects band together with shared applications. That makes less work for them. I recommend we tell GSoC in our application that we will entertain projects using any
