I think a decent Wii linux forum would be useful. The information for getting it all set up is kinda of scattered around the place so a forum to help out would be good... maby a sticky or 2 with information about progress and one with how to install? In general this forum seems to be run quite well. a mod or two could help but it works well.by Warpedflash - Feedback & Support

Re: I have no idea what to do. - 15 years ago
Nearly every legal app is safe, most get very well tested to stop there being any chance of you damageing your wii. apps arnt rely installed they are run stright from your sd card (most are in the folder called "apps" but some like emulators require additional folders as well) Yes you can delete apps with the sd card plugged into your PC or using the homebrew browser. both methords will workby Warpedflash - Getting Started
Re: I have no idea what to do. - 15 years ago
1) No it wont mess it up. Yes its more or less safe. 2) Yea should be fine 3) You can still play online and yes teh internet channel still works. 4) Yes you need to install individual apps. < this will help you alot as it allows you to install things to your SD card stright from your Wii with an internet connection. 5) Quake, Majjong, Homebrew Browserby Warpedflash - Getting Started

Re: Dont tell me Linux on Wii is just a black screen............. - 15 years ago
QuoteDarkWiiOk, but that doesnt work. I tried it. I used the installer. It does work its just not as easy as installing a normal hbc app. If you want an easy way to install wii linux wait a while one is being worked on. Or do it the manual way and partition it up yourself.by Warpedflash - Homebrew Applications
Re: Dont tell me Linux on Wii is just a black screen............. - 15 years ago
QuoteDarkWiiPlease, I need to know, is linux on the Wii just a black screen with writting on it? I' imagined it to be a OS, like with a mouse etc. Or am I doing something wrong? LOL that black screen with writing IS the core of pretty much any os... but yes there are versions with a GUI look at xwhiite on the tehskeen forumsby Warpedflash - Homebrew Applications
Re: SD partitioning and the Homebrew Channel - 15 years ago
to run the wiilinux distros you just need 2 partitons of decent size... say 512mb fat as partition one (aka create this first) then 1.5gb of ext2/3 afterwards (create this second) you dont need to lable the partition? i never had to. also make sure you use the latest kernel or it will be sloooowby Warpedflash - Homebrew General

Re: Wii64 - 15 years ago
QuoteemukididJust be patient. As you can see we are always trying and making some progress, but to be honest, we don't even know when we'll get it right and things will start to work the way we want them to, which is why I cannot give you a clear release date at the moment. Once things are as we want them, and stable too, we'll start throwing some release dates in the air. Fair eby Warpedflash - Homebrew Applications
Re: Wii64 - 15 years ago
QuoteDrLuckyQuoteemukididJust to clear things up .. r448 made no difference what-so-ever to anything in the emulator .. I'm not sure how you manage to get better results with it, considering the code didn't change at all in the builds that you are concerned with :P It is simply human psychology... something new and updated just seems to work better...

Re: Quick question, what's this file? - 15 years ago
just leave it there it wont effect teh twilight hack at all. my Gfs wii had stuff from teh mii channel on it (i think... some private folder anyways) i just left it there.by Warpedflash - Homebrew General
Re: Hosting for homebrew - 15 years ago
QuotestrongfanYou should just download all the apps on Wiibrew and the Homebrew Browser and upload them to hbcapps. Also, you should have like your own version of HBB but with this site. its not meant to be for all apps just people who actually need hosting/want a dedicated site, which some people do. i dont have a dedicated server or i would let the HDD use it as well as teh one it currentlyby Warpedflash - Homebrew General

Re: What exactly is a cIOS and will it replace my current IOS? - 15 years ago
QuotepimpsahoyQuoteicefireWE DO NOT SUPPORT PIRACY HERE! GO AWAY! I am aware of that; I never asked about how to use the backup loader; I asked what a cIOS is, and what it does. That does not relate to piracy. it kinda does as that is the only reason to use it.by Warpedflash - The Junkyard

ask muzer if you need a hand there is a few of us already doing this but im sure people will happily help. when you get it underway though remember the wiis limitations, you will probably want a lightweight Window Manager (http://xwinman.org/ check here for one) and then all the apps need to be lightweight as well... video driver is here http://www.tehskeen.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9322 as fby Warpedflash - Homebrew Applications

Re: Just a few homebrew ideas - 15 years ago
QuotemoosehunterThis next idea will probably not be implemented for various reasons, but... We can already load nes snes etc. roms off an external USB hard drive, but wouldn't it be cool to backup our wii/gamecube games onto the HDD and play them from there, you wouldn't ever have to swap games again (at least not until you got a new game). Also it would be awesome to have a media plaby Warpedflash - Homebrew General
