Repository for the MegaTunix EFI tunning package

• Ubuntu & other debian systems using the Synaptic package manager:

  Run Synaptic from the System|Administration menu.
  Open Settings | Repositories on the Synaptic menu
  Go to the "Third Party Software" tab
  Click the "Add" button & Add the following repository strings:
  
  deb http://pinztrek.com/repository/ stable main
deb http://pinztrek.com/repository/ testing main
  You can enable/disable the testing repository as desired by clicking the radio button to the left of the screen.
  Download the key file http://pinztrek.com/repository/key/mtx_key.pub

  Click the Authentication tab, press the Import Key File button, and navigate the mtx_key.pub file you just downloaded

  Close the repository menu. Click the "Refresh" icon, search for megatunix, and you should see the latest version available. Select for install, it will ask for your password, and you should be in business!

• debian users without synaptic or experts:

  Add these lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:
  
  deb http://pinztrek.com/repository/ stable main
#deb http://pinztrek.com/repository/ testing main
  If you want the latest testing beta code remove the leading pound on the 2nd entry. Then use the following command lines:
  
  
wget http://pinztrek.com/repository/key/mtx_key.pub -O - | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install megatunix

• Manual deb install: Download the deb and install via dpkg or Gdebi at:

  http://pinztrek.com/repository/pool/main/m/megatunix

  The two most recent releases will always be in this directory

  From ubuntu you can normally just cut & paste the link above into your browser, click on the version you want, and Gdebi will open once it downloads.

Notes & Caveats:

• I build on Ubuntu current rev or one back, and MTX has run on every release I've tried. Dave builds on kubuntu, and the debs have worked on both. Given Jaunty has been out a while, most folks should be on at least 8.10 now, so I've not packaged for older releases. I'll try to track the current Ubuntu release and one back from here out starting at 8.10
• I've used this build quite a bit on an EEE 701 & 900A netbook running eee-buntu. I've not tested on the default EEE xandros build it is debian, so hopefully the package dependencies would sort out properly. Some early Xandros users found the libraries were too old, and converted to eeebuntu
• The packages appeared to check properly for dependencies and install them. But if it does not, I'll need an exact error message to correct the package dependencies
• If you choose to use the "testing" release, recognize it is "hot off the press" code. The repository just contains straightforward build of the devel branch code with a few things like gnome/ubuntu menu entries added, etc.
• I try to track Dave's CVS updates and put on the repository quickly. I don't build automatically, so if there is an added feature in the CVS and you'd like to see the repository updated just shoot an email or post on the forum
