Now that introductions are over, here is my main reason for posting. I've finally worked my way to understanding and coding C++ and a little bit of Lua and would like to try my hand at developing a simple "Hello World" app for myself on the Wii before I try to work on bigger projects. However, that means that unfortunately I need the fabled USB Gecko which I can't find on the usual suspects (won't go into details for the rules sake). So basically what I'm trying to say is does anyone have a USB Gecko for sale? I'm located in the US if that helps and would not prefer the USB Gecko SE, but if that's what's available, I'll take that.]]> technoman OfftopicTue, 02 Apr 2013 13:36:55 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,72425,72425#msg-72425 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,72425,72425#msg-72425

The Wii has support for USB 2.0 for Ethernet and storage. It uses less than 20 watts (!) at full load, whereas a full-fledged, admittedly more capable server uses 425 watts. Would it not be really cool to be able to reliably use a Wii for serving static web content, at least? You can pick them up for $30 on eBay, a price which is likely to fall quickly in the future when the new Wii is released.

Why not repurpose your Wii? I've used wiihttpd and Wii Web Server. The first crashed after about 3 requests from the WAN, and the second one is riddled with security holes, if I understand the talk page chatter correctly. I understand that the Wii probably won't ever be able to run PHP or Ruby on Rails at an acceptable speed, but what's stopping developers from creating a stable, effective, "production quality" httpd/ftpd which is capable of serving static content?]]> flotwig OfftopicSun, 08 Jul 2012 05:06:56 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,70724,70724#msg-70724 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,70724,70724#msg-70724Pic of the accessory.

Ok, so I just went searching around my house for a while and found a black cartridge-like thingy that fits in my DSLites GBA slot. I have no idea what it's for, but it has a little electronic part showing at the opposite end. I check the GBA thingy and it says nothing is inserted. The electronic part is surrounded by two bars or whatever, and the whole accessory is black (except at the end). I suspect I have to plug something into it?
Help would really be appreciated.
I'm just curious about it!
Also, I will give a link to a pic of it soon...]]> EarlAB OfftopicSun, 17 Jun 2012 02:40:16 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,70614,70614#msg-70614 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,70614,70614#msg-70614(NOT FOR ANY RULE BREAKING PURPOSE.)]]> supershadowx OfftopicTue, 19 Jun 2012 17:39:56 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,70350,70350#msg-70350 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,70350,70350#msg-70350
Anyways, ever since I got the HBC, my Wii's fan stopped working. Is this supposed to happen? 'Cause it smells like cigarettes. If you can help me, it would be greatly appreciated.

P.S.
I don't know anything techy, except that playing the Wii is smelly/fun. o-o]]> EarlAB OfftopicThu, 01 Nov 2012 10:55:28 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,70274,70274#msg-70274 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,70274,70274#msg-70274

Firstly it's been sometime since I've posted, yes I'm still here :)

I just wanted to let you know that UC Berkeley and the Electronic Frontier Foundation are submitting console specific DMCA exemption requests here in the US. The request is very similar to the I-Phone exemption.

I have been in communication giving a case study and statement about my experiences with Wii homebrew and the community here (All positive stuff). I believe the request will be submitted soon with the hope of protecting those who open up (hack is such a misunderstood word) these wonderful consoles and allow petty developers like myself to make these great apps and games for you.

If you enjoy all the free apps., games and software here on Wiibrew the Copyright Office will be accepting feedback from the public on the proposed exemptions. If you've used your Wii for homebrew and are willing to post feedback it would only strengthen the request. Again remember our RULES! Giving feedback against these would not be helpful, we have tried over many years to respect these with the hopes that console makers would see the benefits of homebrew. I believe we've tried extremely hard to block, ban and delete any post or user who have violated these rules.

I will let you all know more if and when I'm given the information.

Thanks,
Scanff]]> scanff OfftopicFri, 02 Dec 2011 01:28:10 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68669,68669#msg-68669 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68669,68669#msg-68669 masterman64 OfftopicSat, 26 Nov 2011 23:24:54 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68667,68667#msg-68667 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68667,68667#msg-68667 masterman64 OfftopicSat, 26 Nov 2011 16:45:05 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68582,68582#msg-68582 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68582,68582#msg-68582 bisquit OfftopicThu, 17 Nov 2011 19:09:58 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68541,68541#msg-68541 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68541,68541#msg-68541 rune9001 OfftopicSun, 13 Nov 2011 23:30:51 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68402,68402#msg-68402 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68402,68402#msg-68402 lenox361 OfftopicFri, 04 Nov 2011 20:14:16 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68117,68117#msg-68117 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,68117,68117#msg-68117I think this might actually be a hardware related issue, but when I load disc in the system menu, I get an error as soon as the disc is read.

I know this is not a softmod forum, and I have already got into a deep discussion Here.

Help would be appreciated and a donation goes to whoever helps solve the issue.
