Today I visited http://press.nintendo.com to checkout if the login still works with the default values. The login data was published before the Wii was presented. It got invalid after 2 month. Now it seems to work again! Just login as guest and use the brands name as the password.

Ubuntu running on SEM P990i
Some guy called “Wizolabo” managed it to run a modified Ubuntu Linux version on a slightly modified SEM P990i. Here is a not so detailed proof.

Make Beryl run smoother with i810 driver
Today I upgraded my Ubuntu Edgy to Feisty.
After the install the only thing which made trouble was Beryl showing me only a white screen of death (WOD) after logging in. I could even make the cube with the WOD. After changing the repository for Beryl to Feisty and making an update it even didn’t work.
Changing the default depth from 24 to 16 made the trick. Even though some users on the Ubuntu forums say that Beryl is slower with the new release under Feisty it works even faster and smoother than before for me.
The other changings I already made before were:
In Beryl Settings Manager:
- disable “Sync to VBlank”
- increase the refresh rate (mine is around 57) when you set this too high it increases CPU utilisation
