Tried 1.7 only to find that broadcom wireless is still not supported. Is there a reason for this? Ndiswrapper also does not appear to be installed. It would be great to have a distrobution that had wireless for my system that worked out of the box. Please let me know if you plan to include broadcom wireless support as was in 1.5.by syeager - [OLD] - Live mode
Was it intended to loose the broadcom wireless network support from 1.5 to 1.6? I cannot test anything without that. Is there some mechanism for loading native or ndiswrapper windows drivers?by syeager - [OLD] - Live mode
I had the same issue with 1.0. I have an hp with nvidia 6150 video. Try selecting the vesa option for the video. I don't know what to try if you cannot get that far. Good luck. Oh, and I know that the new 1.5 will not install, but it looks wonderful - even better than 1.0. Take a look at it. Also, try gOS. It is similiar and also very nice.by syeager - [OLD] - Live mode
Entering no password and just clicking ok does not work. I agree there does not seem to be a root password, but the password entry dialog does not work. Any ideas?by syeager - [OLD] - Live mode
Very nice. I want to cronical how well this new, unstable version of elive works for my notebook. I will identify what works and what does not. So far, pretty complete. Hardware first. I see no major problems at all. Video is excellent. Loaded without a hitch (unlike elive Gem 1.0, which would not load unless I used vesa). It is fast to.

I know this is unstable, but I would love to install this and keep testing without having to reconfigure each time.by syeager - [OLD] - Live mode
Thanks so much. I just figured that out. I am now going to try out several features. Thanks so much. So, what is wrong with the root password login?by syeager - [OLD] - Live mode
OK, it does display the login and desktop if I choose VESA. I may play with it more but I am about the results of the 1.5 release. Wireless seems to be active and video is excellent. Touchpad is the best I have seen of any distro. If you have any suggestions or have anything you want me to test, just let me know.by syeager - [OLD] - Live mode
Well, the boot process on my hp notebook for 1.0 is very similar to 1.5. But where 1.5 boots to a desktop, 1.0 indicates there is a login for eliveuser, at which time you acknowledge the dialog and you get a blank screen. I entered the same information for 1.0 and 1.5 as far as my graphics choices. And the system is not locked up. If I press enter, I get some cd activity.

I have downloaded the elive 1.5 unstable live iso and booted to it. For an unstable release, it is pretty stable. But, I cannot enter the password for configuring the network. I tried 'elive' and many others and it always says it is invalid. Please help.by syeager - [OLD] - Live mode
