Poking at the Wii's inner workings with a soldering iron. You break it, you get to keep all of the pieces.

Linux Wi-Fi Problem - 14 years ago
I have installed the latest version of Ubuntu Linux on my laptop a while back, but I am having problems setting up my Wi-Fi. I have followed various tutorials around the internet, but none seem to work for me. (Or I am a complete idiot.) The one I have looked over the most is this one. I have tried to use Ndiswrapper with the driver for my Dell Inspiron 5100 laptop, but it will not work. Can anyoby gameboy13 - Offtopic

"Autoboot version?" Please clarify. And to which slot did you install the cIOS?by gameboy13 - Getting Started
Re: Is it safe to install cIOS? 4.2u - 14 years ago
Well, if you wanted to cheat on VC or Wiiware on 4.0+, you need cIOS, or a trucha-enabled IOS36.by gameboy13 - Getting Started
Neverball Port - 14 years ago
A great addition to Wii homebrew would be a port of Neverball. It's a game sort of like Super Monkey Ball, it's open-source (of course) and it was coded in C with SDL. I would try to attempt this myself, but I don't have much coding experience.by gameboy13 - Ideas, requests

Re: Newbie here. In need of help - 14 years ago
There is actually no reason to update to 4.1 if you can help it. The only reason you would need to update to 4.1 is if you wanted the SDHC System Menu features, and the SD Card channel menu. Also, did you install Bootmii as boot2?by gameboy13 - Getting Started

Re: HBC Mascot!!! - 14 years ago
QuoteaujakevQuotegameboy13QuoteSifJarNo I think that Twiizers debunked the myth before they were released. But I believe that in the readme for the HackMii Installer, it says something like "IOSCatz - in your wii, watching ur ISOz", so its still an on-going joke. It's also in the Bootmii credits. Yeah, I was bored at the time and watched the credits "wave" by. No, that's ceiling cat,by gameboy13 - Offtopic
Re: ~Region Free on 4.2?~ - 14 years ago
You should download Gecko OS 1.9.1. The version you are most likely using (1.9.2) will not work on 4.2.by gameboy13 - Getting Started
Re: Whats the cause of errors when booting Channels from Gecko 1.9.2? - 14 years ago
I have read about this. You are using a cIOS that does not work with channel loading. Use this instead: cIOS Patchmii Installerby gameboy13 - Homebrew Applications

I really like the WiiTV idea!!! But I don't think we can update the Photo Channel like that.by gameboy13 - Ideas, requests
Re: Gecko 1.91: Error getting channel list - 14 years ago
There are ways to get channel loading on your System Menu, but none are supported here.by gameboy13 - Homebrew Applications
Re: StartPatch 4.1 & Gamecube - 14 years ago
Well, it doesn't permantly kill Gamecube support. If you ever want it back, just remove the region free hack. I don't think this will be fixed for a while. BTW, you can use Gecko OS to load Gamecube games if you decide to use that patch.by gameboy13 - Homebrew Applications
Re: Starting again from scratch - 14 years ago
Well, to remove cIOSCorp, I'm pretty sure you need to update your System Menu. DON'T update over the internet, though, because you will update to 4.2, which might brick your Wii. (Softmodded or not) Use a disc update if possible. And yes, softmod packs = fail.by gameboy13 - Homebrew General

Re: Can I update my wii to 4.2 without bricking? - 14 years ago
Don't bother updating, it doesn't have any new features, and will impair some homebrew. Use the Wii Shop and IOS61 Installer to get the shop channel back.by gameboy13 - Getting Started

Re: -- Wii System Update 4.2 Mega Topic -- DO NOT UPDATE RIGHT NOW!!! - 14 years ago
Don't update to 4.2. Ever. There are absolutely NO advantages, and you also might brick. The update to 4.2 has bricked people who haven't even modded their Wiis.by gameboy13 - Homebrew General
Re: I think my wii is banner bricked - 14 years ago
If you have Bootmii, you can boot into the Homebrew Channel and uninstall that WAD you mentioned. Other than that, I don't know what to tell you. Edit: Oops, I just read that you had installed Bootmii as IOS. You should have installed it as boot2.by gameboy13 - FixMii
