Hello!
Who can dump the bios without a key, it is very necessary !!! Okirpichil tablet. Voyo a1 mini F tablet, with 5V charging.

[machetekills]

Good day to all! Please give the most working version of Linux on this unit, so that the touch, wifi, and so that it does not hang.

[evgen-y2k]

Touch and so it works, Wi-Fi - you need to collect. Any distro use that you like / know. The problem with the white stripes was not solved.

[manly_m]

Taks, it seems it turned out to achieve full repeatability of the start of graphics.
You need very littleconjure and dance with a tambourinefix grub.cfg, and have a hdmi monitor on hand.

Ubuntu 15.04 Daily Build vivid-desktop-amd64.iso from 13-Mar-2015 with kernel 3.19.0.9

To begin, remove grub.cfg from the quiet and splash download lines. (I did this because the image of March 6 hung up when the graphics were started).
Next, boot. Sometimes even the graphics start right away - but more often not.
If the schedule does not start (wait a few minutes) - connect hdmi. On the monitor of the graph, it will start 100%.
Turning off hdmi - voila, the graphics will start on the tablet itself.

Now for the work itself.
The sound works, though here you first need to conjure in alsamixer (when you see the number of points, do not fall).
There are hard volume and home buttons.
The SSD and the internal SD card are normally detected.
The touchscreen works, sometimes it is chopped off randomly. Or almost always when the screen turns off.
Capacity and battery percentages are shown.

From imperfections.
The brightness is not adjustable, the screen is not extinguished.
Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and FM radio (yes, we have FM radio) are not detected.
Touching is difficult to resize windows.
At the connected hardware keyboard (mine at least) blows the roof from time to time - the characters stick and accelerate like a rocket.

Work as a desktop.
If you connect a hdmi monitor, keyboard, mouse, and Wi-Fi dongle tested in Linux, you can use it (with some settings above) even now.

And here and discuss the most workers.

[KSKOT]

I wonder if it will be possible to launch the radio on Windows.

[manly_m]

On the launch of radio information is extremely small. Googles on request RTL8723BS + FM.

I can not find something, the better to create a bootable USB flash drive. With Rufus'a kernel panic issues, udf creator'om something to do?
I shake mate 15.04 32-bit(64 will not start here because of UEFI, right?)

I recommend watching here:Asus Transformer Book T100 - Firmware
64 bits can be.

64 bits can be.

It is possible, but not necessary. There will be no performance gain, but the system will need more RAM and more disk space will be required.

If you want to make a bootable USB with Windows tryWin32 disk imager.

[manly_m]

Made a minifak to create a bootable flash drive, so as not to multiply the same type of questions.

Download the Linux image with UEFI support. Usually these are 64 bit versions containing the / EFI / BOOT directory.
Download the bootia32.efi file from the link:http: //www.jfwhome.com...transformer-book-t100/
Create a bootable Live CD USB flash drive in any way you know about - Rufus will do.
We copy on it in / EFI / BOOT downloaded bootia32.efi.
Change if you need in /boot/grub/grub.cfg kernel boot options.
Reboot to BIOS. There disable Fast boot.
We save.
At the time of the reboot clickF7(choice of bootable media), choose a USB flash drive.


Download option without USB hub (not tested, does not work with USB SD card readers).
In /boot/grub/grub.cfg we add the option "set timeout =", this will automatically load the selected item after a specified number of seconds.
Appends it below the set options like this:
set menu_color_highlight = black / light-gray
set timeout = 5

Pre-select the boot from external media in the BIOS, or do a reboot with the choice of media from the Windows service menu (reboot with Shift pressed).

Know Linux distributions x86 32bit with UEFI support? Thenwe go to youshare links.

[akral]

Know Linux distributions x86 32bit with UEFI support? Then we go to you to share links.

Almost any. The fact that there is no EFI folder there is not an indicator of its lack of support by Linux itself. At least Ubuntu 32 bits supports EFI.

There are two nuances here - the first one you described is the presence of a 32-bit bootloader in the distribution (the same bootia). This is really not the case in many distributions. The second is kernel support. With this easier - most should support.

But anyway, to complete the work of the tablet with Linux, the kernel must be collected from source codes.

Clear. I thought that the rationale for running 32-bit Linux distributions on a subject was confirmed by practice, and these are theoretical calculations ...

Here, at least, get together, not yet for the subject of the main thing - support for adjusting the brightness of the display and its damping. Although the main topic recently cited a link to the version with dualbut in android - maybe the problem will be solved.
And as a desktop, with an external monitor, it works out of the box right now.

This is not a theory, but a practice.

Can you link to the post? I can't find something

[manly_m]

evgen-y2k @ 03/21/2015, 6:00 PM

Can you link to the post?

In the main branch of Voyo, all the last pages discuss the new BIOS for VoyoF with dualBut, and the android going with it.
As far as I understand, the new BIOS is needed only so that the keyboard does not connect to select the OS. But the android itself probably with a brightness adjustment should be. For if this is not so, then there is no sense in such an android.

[pilottt]

Good day to all, on the forum the console wasps, one person managed to run the console wasps on the asus T100Do

[enigman87]

pilottt,yes we have:

What doesn't work:
- Sound
- Camera
- Sleep

almost any modern linux works, run in this thread
