Once upon a time Emil Naepflein shaped the electrons to say...


>It now works with Bios 1.6.

Ah, interessting that they make a new BIOS.
Maybe they fixed the broken "idle" call...

>The Bios always needs a long time for the VGA test now.

Hm, did they manage to force Video out now even if a 
VGA is connected?


>> Started by switch or power plug in i never had such a problem.
>> BIOS is V. 1.4(04/17/2000)

>I also thought that it worked fine the first time I turned it on. 

I am running the bo now at least 2 month.

What does "long time" mean in seconds? ;-)

Did you try the 1.5?
The 1.6 is only claiming to uptdate the VGA-BIOS...


Did you try to enable "quick boot" (on the on version)?





>Are you using the build IR-receiver?

How can i do that?
I would like to use it.

Which BIOS Setting?
What LIRC module?
What addresses?


>Does it recognize to commands from greater distance than about 3-4 m?
