Minor Release: TweakEEE Beta 0.4.1

This is a very minor release. It only has the updated repositories for the 900 series eeepc in a dropdown box.
All I added was the repositories below when the user selects 900 from the drop down box. I haven’t verified that these are the correct repositories, so if a user with the 900 could double check their sources.list file by entering in a terminal cat /etc/apt/sources.list, and let me know if everything looks okay.


deb http://update.eeepc.asus.com/p900/ p900 main
deb http://update.eeepc.asus.com/p900// p900 main
…Other repos too…

This is what mine looked like. Be aware though, that the EeePC 900 is a Swedish localized version which is buggy with respect to the apt-get repo setup. But your additional repos seem to work, though.

deb http://update.eeepc.asus.com/p900/ p900 main
deb http://update.eeepc.asus.com/p900/sv/ p900 main

Thank you!

The Swedish bug has been reported elsewhere; http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=37106

It looks like a folder issue, since I’m new to Debian and apt-get I will have to wait for someone to post a solution.

Error -> This is wierd and happens when eeeweather isn’t in the startup script. Let Marf know.

I just did what it told me (I’ve got the 700 repos yes)

Ok. There seems to be a slight bug with the eeeweather. Sometimes the debian will add it to the startsimple.sh and sometimes it doesn’t add it at all. I should have made tweakeee accept either method but it currently only looks to see if it exists or not.

So you can remedy this easily.

in terminal type
sudo kwrite /usr/bin/startsimple.sh
then scroll down until you find a line that looks like
networkmonitor2 -i ppp0 &
then add below it
eeeweather -g -f CMYK &
save and close the file. Then tweakeee will work fine because it can find the text in the startsimple.sh.

umm, if you click and nothing happens this means that there is an error occurring. If you could…
1. Open a terminal (Press Ctrl + Alt + t)
2. enter the command tweakeee
3. paste the error message to me here.
Also are you using a european, or 2g/4g surf? These sometimes come without some gtk libraries, in which case you can run the command fix_tweakeee in the terminal. The secret word is tweak.
