Good , but if there is no PS/2 ports, how he can control the device?

Or use 'synergy' to share a mouse of another pc over network

Would be really nice if you can explain how to use 'synergy'. Then I could test Asper's HDA sound driver on a few more machines.hidnplayr wrote:Or use 'synergy' to share a mouse of another pc over network
You need to setup synergy server on the computer of wich you want to share mouse and keyboard.
In the synergy client for kolibrios (net branch) you only need to configure synergy.ini (set local computer name and server IP)
In the current version, only mouse events will work, keyboard events are not implemented yet.
It's really a proof of concept and not really useable ATM.

Today, I received the eBox 3300 from yogev_ezra.
First notices: wow, it is quiet and wow, it boots fast
The second NIC is, as expected, a mini-pci card. It has an RTL8100B chip (rtl8139)
I expected an rtl8111 (rtl8169) but it does not really matter, both work already with kolibri.
Actually, it's even better, because now I can use my favorite network bootloader (as described here http://home.dei.polimi.it/fornacia/prog ... index.html)
Also, the device does not have PS/2 connectors for mice and keyboard (serial mouse works, usb keyboard untested)
I found the place on the mobo where the PS/2 connector should be soldered, but there are resistors etc missing, So I cannot add PS/2 connectors by simply connecting some wires..
I noticed that the compact flash card is not detected in KolibriOS (or is it because it is not properly formatted?)
Perhaps it will work when I connect a flash card to the internal IDE port.
I should go to school now but expect to see a working R6040 driver soon

Great news! Did you have to pay any taxes? I hope not?hidnplayr wrote:Today, I received the eBox 3300 from yogev_ezra.
Overall it took 6 days to get from me to you. Much better than to ex-USSR.
Now you can enjoy the quietness in your house while using computerhidnplayr wrote:First notices: wow, it is quiet and wow, it boots fast
And if someone writes a browser and/or RDP for Kolibri, you can even make it your main PC.
I am really happy that regular COM mouse works out of the box. Will make your life much easier.hidnplayr wrote:serial mouse works, usb keyboard untested
Plugging USB keyboard made eBox-3300-L2 stuck when I did it myself Hope you have better luck!
Weird - I remember it was detected when I shipped it to you. Did you change anything in BIOS?hidnplayr wrote:I noticed that the compact flash card is not detected in KolibriOS (or is it because it is not properly formatted?) Perhaps it will work when I connect a flash card to the internal IDE port.
Did you manage to load KolibriOS from the CompactFlash card that was inside the eBox when you received it?
To be honest, I thought you are much olderhidnplayr wrote:I should go to school now but expect to see a working R6040 driver soon

I had to pay 10 euros, 'handling costs'
Well, under normal circumstances, it should go even faster, there were some strikes at Belgian Postyogev_ezra wrote: Overall it took 6 days to get from me to you. Much better than to ex-USSR.

I used the card labeled 'KolibriOS night build' and it booted even before my screen was warmed-up.
I'm 20 years old, but have been spending time with KolibriOS/menuetos since 2005yogev_ezra wrote: To be honest, I thought you are much older
EDIT: I can access the compact flash through bd0/1, did not notice it was there..

This is bearable I suppose. A lunch in Belgian McDonald's cost me more in 2007hidnplayr wrote:I had to pay 10 euros, 'handling costs'

But aren't you supposed to graduate school at 18 or so? At least like this in Israel. In ex-USSR most even graduated at 16-17 (since it's only 10-11 years and in Israel we have 12). Do you mean college/university then?
Yes, I mean college. (I'm studying electronics and ict, however its more electronics then ict, and i'm glad i dont have to learn PHP/C#/Java/....)
By undetected I meant, unaccessible from KolibriOS, but now I noticed I have to use /bd0/1/

Yes, exactly. I am glad you found it and it's working as expected.hidnplayr wrote:By undetected I meant, unaccessible from KolibriOS, but now I noticed I have to use /bd0/1/
BTW: please do not try to hot-swap CompactFlash cards (do not change them when eBox is "on").
It will not work since it's not supported, and you are risking to burn the eBox and/or CompactFlash.
