:Babbling of funkytoad

So to start, this isn’t my fix. I found this fix after many many hours of searching. Here’s the source:  http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=11650 (pj’s post below)

Now the author is “pj”. Don’t know nuthin’ ’bout pj, but the person got it right. Out of the box my ASUS linux beauty worked every time connecting to my wireless. However after some haphazzard BIOS upgrades I started receiving the ole “wireless pending” non-sense.

After many attempts at “sudo boulderdash” and “stand on head, press ctrl-alt-t, yell ‘IE is bloated cheese’ ” and do the same, but only after the earths polar shift - confirmed by the toilet flushing the other direction etc. , did I find pj’s post which has proved effective now 30 for 30 boot ups - easy or advanced mode. I give you Pj’s fix:

“run sudo XandrosFileManager (open the file manager as root)
find file /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/debug
open the file and change the line:

RUN=”no”

to

RUN=”yes”

This is intended to debug the file by putting the results in /tmp/dhclient-script.debug. It does, but the system worked immediately afterwards!

There is a file file /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/debug, but I have not changed that - yet!

Hope that this works for you too”

And that’s all she wrote. You might be wondering what’s a goofball like funkytoad, who codes for windows, be doing with a linux box? Simple, enjoying far far less non-sense, despite what this post may indicate…  Why Pj’s fix works is well beyond me? Just hoping to save someone some time. -ft

Long time no Babble…

Homer v1.1 has been released 8-10-2006.
New - two command line switches.
“L” - will start Homer with logging enabled.
“m” - will start Homer Minimized.
These additions were a users request and I find it quite cool myself.

These switches can be used in a short-cut for instance:
-Make a shortcut to Homer.
-Right Click on the Shortcut.
-Next to “Target” you’ll see something like “C\where I put it\Homer.exe”
-Simply add an l and/or an m after the last quote, separating them with a space like so:
“C\where I put it\Homer.exe” l m
Hit Apply and you are finished. If you’d like Homer to start at start-up, copy the shortcut and paste it into your Start-up folder and you are good to go.
