All you need to do is install the server version [non-gui] , change the kernel , remove the old kernel , add / remove other apps and run remastersys. It has nothing to do with Gnome. Although if you install gnome , gnome apps and settings would be included in the remastered distro. Alternatively , you can tell me what apps you want on your Custom CD , Ill build one for you and upload it to a server / mail it to you.

Re: [ubuntu-in] Custom Ubuntu
I dont want to use remastersys becase if I use it then all those gnome appsetc will be in it and I need to make a really light system. I just need to know how to install the server version, change the kernel to the normal version, install the xserver, etc etc On 11/16/08, Sameep <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> >> i should have been a bit more clear.

Finish customizing your distro however you want. i.e. you can add / remove packages , configure system settings etc. Once your done use remastersys to build a custom distro iso. You can then burn that and use it however you want.

Re: [ubuntu-in] Custom Ubuntu
i should have been a bit more clear. I want to build a custom edition of Ubuntu from the server edition.

[ubuntu-in] Custom Ubuntu
i have read articles about how to create a custom Ubuntu installation using the server version but have lost the links. Can anyone give me some links? Also which version of the server edition to download? hppa or ia64 or powerpc or sparc? -- My Blog >> http://fabianenos.blogspot.com/ -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
[ubuntu-in] Touchscreen working on HP tx1000 series tablet with Intrepid amd64
Hello, In short: Run "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-evtouch" in a terminal and run the resulting "Calibrate Touchscreen" applet in the System->Administration menu to get touchscreen working! Long story: Similar to my earlier email "Touchscreen working on HP tx1000 series tablet with Hardy amd64" at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-in/2008-May/003018.html I'm writing this so that it becomes findable on the net :-) This time with Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid amd64 it was much easier/smoother to get touchscreen working! After a bit of unneeded web searching and finding a potential driver at http://home.eeti.com.tw/web20/TouchKitDriver/linuxDriver.htm I found that just running: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-evtouch and lo and behold the touchscreen started working after logout and back in. But the calibration was a bit off and after some more pointless web searching saw that there was a "Calibrate touchscreen" item in the System->Administration menu. You have to follow the on-screen instructions carefully, first move the stylus around the screen so that it goes to all edges and corners (so that the tool can figure out the X/Y ranges/limits) then press Enter and be a little patient for the first crosshair to become red. Then you tap the first crosshair at the top-left and the next crosshair becomes red which you have to tap and so on till you reach the last crosshair at the bottom-right. If you miss one you can press the right mouse button to go back. After tapping the last one the tool exits and you should logout and back in for the changes to take effect. All in all, each Ubuntu release (since I started with Feisty 7.04) has been a steady improvement for me, luckily havent faced too many of the issues reported on mailing lists and the forums. Intrepid is the best so far with wifi, touchscreen, bluetooth, even the remote control working with very little effort on my 1-year-old HP Pavilion tx1302au tablet PC. The only thing remaining is the fingerprint reader which doesn't work well since the Authentec AES1610 driver isn't in good shape (I think its removed in recent versions) of the "fprint" project. I'll try to update my webpage at http://lahsiv.net/linux/tablet.html soon, blog about it at http://lahsiv.net/blog/ and also update the Ubuntu wiki entry. - Vishal -- "Thou shalt not follow the null pointer for at its end madness and chaos lie." -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
