The Good and the gooder (and some bad points)
GOODER:
2 computers in 1. Keyboard is a dual core i5 and tablet is an intel Z2560 (x86)
#Android and 8 and and whatever else you can install on a x86 PC.
Using android you don't need a cable.
Once you manage to boot from USB, 14.10 is trivial to install.
UPDATE: I upgraded kernel to 3.18 and then 3.19.
Fast switching between Android and Linux (or Windows). Both run at same time or you can shut down one and use other.
Chargers are small and well designed Asus plug-packs - not bricks.
Easy to open Keyboard to change HDD.
Under Linux, everything seems to work. Screen brightness is not working properly, but it does work.
UPDATE: Thanks to Viktar Vaŭčkievič and #ArchLinux, I compiled and installed an ALS module which automatically adjusts screen backlight. See https://github.com/victorenator/als.git
Running linux in mode.
GOOD:
11.6" screen. Could be an inch bigger based on bezel.
Tablet and keyboard have WiFi and Bluetooth.
Tablet is possible. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57341475&postcount=27
SD card on tablet mounts in Windows/Linux. But Ubuntu keeps opening a file manager every time I switch back from Android.
UPDATE: Fixed by Control Panel - Details - Removable Media - Tick 'Never prompt or start programs on media insertion'
Linux kernel modules to support device.
Aluminium tablet and keyboard backs.
BAD:
Matt screen might be better.
No 3G or LTE.
Can not connect 3G modem to tablet (so far).
No Android update from Asus.
No keyboard backlight nor fluorescent key labels.
When screen is open, tablet/screen hinge opens lower than base of keyboard which makes it uncomfortable as a lap-top.
A bit heavy for it's size at 1.7 kg (tablet and keyboard)
Only 2.4GHz WiFi.
UPDATE: But syslog indicates PC might support 5 GHz.
Rear camera does not work on PC.
WiFi (RTL8821) occasionally locks-up. To fix, remove module, put keyboard to sleep (Fn+f2), wake (power button) and load module. Module is rtl8821ae in my case.
UPDATE: This only seems to happen (now) when I tether to an iPhone 5s.
UPDATE: #ArchLinux also had a solution to this - too early for me to confirm that it is fixed. Does not seem to fix.

Howto install OpenWRT on Netgear DG834 or DG834G (v1 or v2)
Got a spare Netgear DG834 or DG834G? Want to try OpenWRT? Want an easy process?
This assume you are running Ubuntu.
This assume you are running Ubuntu.
Try this:
0. Before you start...
0.1 Ensure router power plug is secure.
0.2 Ensure LAN cable is clicked into both router and computer.
0.3 Ensure your router is working by opening http://192.168.0.1 (or whatever IP address you have changed it to)
1. Backup router config in case you want to restore factory firmware.
2. Factory default router to ensure it's IP address is 192.168.0.1
2.1 Power on router.
2.2 Hold in reset button until test light (tick) flashes.
2.3 Wait for router to reboot (I think - might have to power cycle it).
3. Run my script to turn on telnet, backup partitions, extract environment file, patch ADAM2 to turn off checksum test, download OpenWRT, split into 2 parts, install patched ADAM2 and OpenWRT parts...
Note: This is not conventional and may not work. But unless you have some hardware fault or power failure, you can fairly easily recover your Netgear using a Netgear image and a small C program called nftp. I'll add instructions below.
3.1 mkdir
3.2 cd
3.3 save my script here
3.4 Run my script like this:
bash ./pc-setup-wrt-v2.bash
... and follow my instructions.
4. Boot into OpenWRT
4.1 Power cycle router.
4.2 Connect ethernet port - may take 1-2 minutes first time.
4.3 Browse to http://192.168.1.1
4.4 Follow instructions to set password.
Done.
My Script
Save as pc-setup-wrt-v2.bash
#!/bin/bash
# Factory default router
# Power on. Hold in reset button until test light (tick) turns on.
# Setup PC ethernet interface use DHCP. Disconnect. Connect - should get 192.168.0.2?
# router should be 192.168.0.1
# test by pointing browser to 192.168.0.1 - should get Netgear Setup Wizard screen
# route del default

Basic Configuration Steps
Save and Apply after each change.
If unsure, power cycle router.
Set timezone
Set dropbear (ssh) interface to lan
Edit LAN interface
IP address (WARNING: This gives me most headaches - perhaps leave it alone for a while)
(When you save and apply, you may need to disconnect/reconnect ethernet interface on pc)
I set MTU to 1474
Add new (PPPoATM) interface
Set username and password
Set custom DNS servers to OpenDNS 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
Assign ADSL interface to WAN
Edit Wifi
Enable
Set SSID etc.
Set to WEP and generate WEP hex key somehow.
No WPA???

Virtualize an old Windows XP disk partition (howto convert disk partition to virtual disk for VirtualBox)
I dug out an old hard disk. I was curious: what gems are stored here?
Turns out there was nothing, but it was in interesting exercise in converting a single disk partition into a VM - something that is not trivial.
Turns out there was nothing, but it was in interesting exercise in converting a single disk partition into a VM - something that is not trivial.
I plugged my old drive into a USB hard disk docking station and had a look. It contained Windows XP and Linux from an old PC dating from 2004-2007 I believe.
"Hey!" I thought. I could virtualize this for no good reason and show how easy it is using free and open source software.
Ubuntu Packages
I installed VirtualBox and mbr.
Create VirtualBox VM
- Select New
- Name your VM (say TEST)
- Select Windows and Windows XP
- Set memory size (default is ok)
- Select 'do not add a virtual hard drive' - we will create this later in tis VM's directory.
Create Virtual Disk Drive
Open a terminal and change to your ~/VirtualBox\ VM/TEST directory for this example.
Copy and paste my script into your editor.
#!/bin/bash
DISK=/dev/sdd
PART=1
printf "Copy boot sector image...\n"
sudo dd if=$DISK of=mbr.img bs=512 count=1 || { printf "FAILED\n"; exit 1; }
printf "Done\n"
# put 'normal' mbr incase grub or something was used
printf "Replace MBR code..."
sudo install-mbr mbr.img -t 36 || { printf "FAILED\n"; exit 1; }
printf "Done\n"

Howto enable AHCI Mode MacBookPro1,2 and MacBookPro4,1
I added this after insmod ext2 in grub:
setpci -s 0:1f.2 90.b=40
This sets Intel ICH7 (page 509) or ICH8 (page 486) controller into AHCI mode.
A similar command will probably work for other ICHx devices.
I got my bus:slot.function from running lspci - take value from line that states SATA IDE mode
eg.
00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 82801GBM/GHM (ICH7-M Family) SATA Controller [IDE mode] (rev 02)
Both MBP1,2 and MBP4,1 have same bus:slot.function and use same value (40h) to put controller into AHCI mode.
UPDATE: Should be MacBookPro1,2 not MacBookPro2,1
setpci -s 0:1f.2 90.b=40

Root Huawei X3 8150 Without Windows or a Working Touchscreen
I got some of this from here
Power-off phone.
RED+VOL-DN+POWER - hold for about 5 seconds. Phone will vibrate and show a white screen with IDEOS displayed.
Connect USB.

Connect USB.
From ubuntu this is very easy now:
apt-get install android-tools-adb
apt-get install android-tools-fastboot
Open root terminal or open terminal and sudo su.
Check that all is well, that USB connection is working and that ADB is correctly installed
Enter RECOVERY mode
Phone should boot into 'Android system recovery'

Hmm. It seem I was already root! I suspect that SuperuserOneClick that I experimented with - but did not log - using mono under linux may have worked - although I had no indication that it did.
I'll carry on.
Next I remount mdtblock4 to be able to write to it.
~ # mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mdtblock4 /system
mount: mounting /dev/block/mdtblock4 on /system failed: Invalid argument
But it seems it is not mounted.

devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,relatime,mode=600)

In my case, mtdblock4 is not mounted so I mounted it.
~ # mount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
~ # ls /system/
app etc lib tts xbin
bin fonts lost+found usr

Now I realise that I made a typo: I entered mdtblock4 instead of mtdblock4.

Ok. mtdblock4 is now writeable.
