Latest Version (0.4)

Old Release

**WARNING (versions less than 0.2.3)** Don’t use the Change Computer Name: feature of the program. A member reported that it might be the culprit that causes a minor error about DCOP to popup. All other functionality should be fine. I will look into this and attempt to fix it when I get home.

Well I’ve been hard at work and I must say this is a reasonable improvement from the last release. A lot of the additions are a little more backend, but I figure if I’m doing all this work on the backend code now, adding features in the future should speed up once I work out all the kinks.

A Thanks goes out to eeeuser community. If it weren’t for them this program would have never been made. Also a special thanks goes out to SublimePorte of eeeuser community. I asked him a variety of questions about installers, deb packages, and some shell scripting stuff as well. Another Thanks to Zinni from ZinniDesigns, who created a nice looking Theme package which is used in the program (beta version 0.2+).

Feature Updates/Fixes:

• initial.backup was being “backed up” every time the program was executed. That is fixed
• Huge overhaul on themes management. Organization and status much cleaner.
• Added AsusLauncher Theme chooser. Only 2 options as of now.
• Realtime interface updating (for most stuff). So when you apply settings you see your changes immediatly. Same goes for themes, they are updated instantaneously when enabled.
• Option to Toggle Logging on and off. If your program isn’t running with errors, then there’s no harm in toggling it off.
• Implemented config file, however isn’t being 100% used. It stores the configuration options and prevents spamming of buttons to an extent, but if you close the program and load back up it won’t set the checkboxes to their actual status (with the exception of themes). Hopefully on next update I’ll have the program remember and set the options appropriately.

Requirements:

EEEPC with Xandros, and PyGTK (GUI Python). The eeepc should come with Python GTK installed by default but if it doesn’t, the official asus repos has it, so you can install it aptitude.

Some newer versions **2G Surf Specifically** of EEEPC might not have pyGTK. Please run the following commands and it should work.

• Open a Terminal (Ctrl + Alt + t)
• Enter the command sudo apt-get update
• Then enter the command sudo apt-get install python-gtk2 python-glade2 python-imaging python-numeric
• Then try to install/run TweakEEE as per the instructions

Installation Instructions

If you are upgrading from previous version, don’t worry about removing it. Proceed with the new installation as if you never had an older version. The installer will do everything necessary.
**NOTE: If you are running a 2G Surf it by default doesn’t come with python-gtk2 (the GUI environment). Luckily this is already located on the official asus eeepc repos so installing it is simple. Follow my steps above and you should get the package no problem.
First Method:

• Download the deb file to My Documents, or wherever your default download directory goes.
• Once downloaded, open up File Manager ( Work tab, File Manager )
• Then go into My Documents Folder, and you should see the deb file. Right click the file and near the bottom of the popup options you should see ‘Install Deb….’ Choose that option, and it should prompt you for an administrator password.
• Enter the administrator password and then it will install. During this time just be patient, a window will popup saying you need to restart. Just click ok, and CONTINUE WAITING. A Second window will eventually popup saying it has completed. Now you can reboot.
• To run the program, you can either type in a terminal tweakeee or in the Settings tab there should be an icon for TweakEEE

Second Method

• Open a terminal (Ctrl + alt + t)
• Enter the command wget http://www.infinitedesigns.org/eeepc/tweakeee_0.1-0.i386.deb
• Next enter the command chmod +x tweakeee_0.1-0.i386.deb
• Finally Enter this command to start the installation sudo dpkg -i tweakeee_0.1-0.i386.deb
• To run the program, you can either type in a terminal tweakeee or in the Settings tab there should be an icon for TweakEEE

Enjoy!
