You already have my vote. You're not skipping a version, you're releasing the next beta that is better than the last one.

Please, I really don't understand why you keep on pushing to 700MB limit?
Today dvd's are cheaper than cd's & more over most are going to use only USB & 4 GB pen drive is less than 10 USD.
If you think uploading & hosting file will be a problem then there is bit torrent, parent of bitcoin.
If you want i can seed up to 2 months.
So, better go for not maximum, but best size, instead of just taking out stuffs for 700MB.

lol dishwara
Nothing been removed don't worry. Just bloated out a bit with all the extras I needed to compile some of the stuff included. Just testing a few more things as I don't want more issues
Then I'll upload.There already is a 0.2b torrent floating around from the bad version. Can you please increment this to 0.2c to avoid confusion?
You can check what ISO you have by checking the MD5 or SHA1 hash. I don't want to increment it to c yet as it's 0.2b but working
I'll put the question to you guys ? June 30, 2011, 03:23:23 PM

Ty brwyatt !!
Just finished testing the PXE stuff and it works sweet and remote reboot works via ssh and on the local machine without changing anything in the configuration files. I have however changed the reboot stuff to do a cold reboot as requested.
Just going to type up the PXE auto start scripts and we are golden !

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! As soon as I can get set up and generate some BC you'll get some renumeration ;-)

Still on 0.2a for the moment - but I don't think this will be 0.2a specific.
Having trouble dual card (6990 plus 6970). If I boot up with either I'm ok. If I boot up with both I get the usual boot up messages, the splash screen, and then the screen goes blank with no cli. Do I need to change a setting in Xorg? If I do how do I get back to the cli?
Any ideas?

Boot up and hit
ctrl + F1
type
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=all
/etc/init.d/gdm restart
And hopefully you should see you desktop
I hit ctrl + F1 after the splash screen, nothing. Also tried just before splash, also nothing. Gotta be doing something wrong!
sorry missed alt
itsctrl + alt + F1
Sorted! Thanks heaps drgr33n! More coinage for you.
Cheers again.

could we maybe get a wiki or something similar? I know I tried linuxcoin for a minute and wasn't able to get it working and it might be easier if we had a wiki and faq. (i had the issue where, in the start_mining script, I'd get a brief pop up window and then not much else). Especially for those of use without a heavy or even light-moderate linux background, a wiki of infos could be very useful

drgr33n, has anyone told you lately how awesome you are for doing this lately? I think I can speak for all of us, thanks for taking time to do this, even through all your troubles recently. While not quite perfect yet, each release you put out is getting closer and closer. I hope everything goes alright for you IRL and hopefully things will work out in the end.
We all appreciate your hard work and dedication on this project! Thanks again!

Already on it just had no time for that and 0.2a was very buggy so wanted to get a foundation down that worked and a half decent working OS before I make a start on the website etc.
Just testing the PXE stuff then I'll be ready to upload hopefully. I might put a little background together that's nice and easy on the eye.

In 0.2b is there a way to automate Remote Desktop startup and entering a password? It seems that I don't actually click on it after a reboot, I cannot connect to the box via VNC.
Thx!
Thx!
Checkout /usr/share/gconf/schemas/vino-server.schemas
LinuxCoin allows me to push it up to 1050/300 no problem and with that setup I'm getting 452MHs !! Only down side is its no longer a live CD but a live DVD totaling in at 911MB !!. Might have to put it on a diet hahaha
I wouldn't bother trying to slim it down to make the 700 MB limit if it's going to slow down the release. People here are running Linuxcoin on USB sticks, not Live CDs. And regardless, if they really want to use optical media for some reason, they can just burn it to a DVD instead of a CD.
Got it down to 771MB
And we now have a clipboard and volume manager PS I'm running 1 x 5870 & 1 x 5830 xfx black via linuxcoin and look at my deepbit MH/s
Not 100% accurate but its defo increased by at least 50MHs June 30, 2011, 09:51:26 AM

Great work. Let us know when 0.2b is avaialble to download.

Overnight testing on a 5870 went excellent !! No drop outs temp sitting at 70C with clocks at 990/300. 11.6 is working properly now and its looking very good !! in about 7 hours I got around 3700 shares and only 4 stale !! And that's running from a 3G dongle !!
Nice, what mining program?
Phoenix r105. Running my 5870 @ 447MHs
LinuxCoin 0.2b is now absolutely blowing 0.2a and other distro's out of the water
LinuxCoin is allowing me to push my cards even more to the limit !! Most things I've tried I can't get my clocks over 990 stable on windows, ubuntu, debian running lots of different configurations.LinuxCoin allows me to push it up to 1050/300 no problem and with that setup I'm getting 452MHs !!
