Is there a way for me to check that the internet is working? I think it should be working because I can see the mac address on my router's connected list.

This happens to me too when i run ipconfig and then i exit out with CTRL-C. Is this supposed to happen?

If you can do an apt-get update then your internet is working as it needs to be.

I will tell you both that I had issues with the supplicant I copied from Android and ended up going to Google and making my own. It wasn't really anything different and it worked though so you might want to try that as well.

That shouldn't happen, you are probably partially working but not authenticated appropriately to your network. You may have to edit/play around with your supplicant file. If you are able to get that far it just may be a tweak or two.

As I said before, X3's original instructions didn't work quite right for me and I made my own guide so it's possible for whatever reason I don't know that you might need to do the same. Research, tweak, test. It gets kind of annoying but you'll learn a lot and be able to do it better and quicker next time.

You're right. I removed the -B so that it's not running in the background anymore and it keeps getting disconnected. I'll try playing around with my supplicant file.

Thanks!

Lol, my guide is only based on gnome-core install. So as long as you get everything before the steps to install gnome-core you should be fine. However, you may be on your own at this point since the thread and guide is only my experience installing gnome-core.

If you want Lubuntu you should go back to the OP:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1995157

You should reformat using the Tubuntu application and use the image below. Check the OP, that appears to be more of what you want.

Ubuntu(ubuntu.img)
Lubuntu v1.2 (12.10) - http://goo.im/devs/x3maniac 496.01 MB
only added support for 2.6.36 kernel.(if you want to use newer kernels must installed kernel and supplements)

i guess i try and play around with it ... i dont have a windows computer at the moment to use tubuntu and the OP is too confusing is not a guide like urs with all the steps on how to get the desktop environment and i google and google and cant find anything..

one last question it finish downloading lubuntu and now is unpacking a lot of files... after that can i just reboot and it will boot up to lubuntu and it will come up with that terminal again?

Im new with this code things i used to have Ubuntu in my laptop but u dont have to do all this stuff to get it working thats why im so confuse

Well in theory it should.

I know when Gnome-core is finished and you reboot it automatically runs the gui. If your's does not you might need to invoke it from the command line....maybe "start lightdm" or startx or something like that. I did not install it this way so it makes it difficult to give a good answer.

Maybe go back to the OP and try using KingZak's guide.

You're welcome.

I don't believe Lubuntu would be deleted. You would have to do "sudo apt-get purge lubuntu-desktop" without the quotes. I believe that is the correct command to execute to essentially uninstall it.

one more thing lmao

why the sound is so low i cant find the volume options

Treizy · Feb 21, 2013

Tried playing around with the wpa_supplicant file for a while with no luck. I even removed the security on my network (previously I had WPA2) and it says that it's connected but when I execute "/usr/lib/klibc/bin/ipconfig wlan0" it hangs just like before

Do you mind sharing your file? I've googled and tried various tags with no luck so far.

In terminal open alsamixer and increase the volume there.

/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

Mine looks like this:

ctrl_interface=wlan0
network={

ssid="putSSIDhereINquotes"

scan_ssid=1

key_mgmt=WPA-PSK

psk="passwordINquotes"

}

That's it..

I confirm your commands worked, I donfirm the missed f too, but I didnt noticed when I typed it, I auto corrected it

I did this tuto about 2-3 times, never got any problem. Maybe it's the kernel you use ?

@TomTcom, did you success to do what you want with onboard ?

Getting there...just need to tweak a bit more. Thanks again!

Try pressing ctrl alt and t to bring up terminal.

Then try sudo service lightdm stop. I don't know if it's lightdm though.

If it exits the GUI you can do the purge.
