Nice...

All I do is provide a base or a canvas and you are the artists...

Well done

Just a couple shots of video playback on the recent build - no overheating on the HP2000 with VSIDO - impressive.

The (my?) HP2000 has some overheating issues; so far the Core heat has not gone above 60 C running custom kernel 3.9.2 and VSIDO - you're my new hero   8)

You have a certain method for building your custom kernels?

Yes -

http://verahill.blogspot.com/2012/07/compiling-kernel-35-on-debian-testing.html

I add a step. After unpacking the kernel, I use the:

make mrproper

step outlined in the kernel readme; the kernel has always compiled correctly after I do that; and if I want, I can use "make menuconfig" to go through all the sections if I need to.

The driver for my SD card reader always compiles if I go that route.

^ Would you do me a huge favor and write your process in a How To here which includes the steps you use for the current kernel?

I think the VSIDO forums and users would benefit from your writings...

I appreciate it!

^^ Interesting... I am building (or attempting to build) kernel 3.9.2 now...

I thought I had every build package needed for any types of build as part of the vsido-welcome script but what I have found is kernel-package is not installed and that is obviously needed for make-kpkg to even begin

Needless to say, it is now part of the welcome script

@PackRat, Now that I have successfully built one using your method and the linked url, I can do the How To...

I appreciate it

@jedi - thanks

@vastone - Odd, usually if you get that far it works. I have had the compile fail, and kernel panics afterwards, but the debs have always installed.

back on topic - mirage is a keeper app:
