A Brief Introduction to DSLinux (How to configure/What it can do)

Multi-lingual subtitles available! This video will shows how to configure DSlinux, but mostly what DSlinux can do. It will only cover the basics. This is not a tutorial on compiling, program use, porting, or etc. The programs I have shown are only a few of the many programs on DSLinux In this video, I’m using the dslinux-dldi build with 8MB of ram. ________________________________________ DSLinux is a port of the Linux operating system to the Nintendo DS. DSLinux runs a modified µClinux kernel. It is currently based on uCLinux 2.6.14 (Linux-2.6.14-hsc0). It only runs in textmode and nano-x which is displayed via a custom framebuffer console driver. Input is done via a keyboard displayed on the touchscreen of the Nintendo DS. If you have questions please comment, go to the DSlinux Wiki, or go to the DSlinux Forums. Feel free to ask in other languages. También puedes preguntar en otros idiomas. N’hésitez pas à demander dans d’autres langues. Fühlen Sie sich frei auf die Frage in anderen Sprachen zu fragen. 你可以用其他語言問我。 ________________________________________ List of compatible hardware(slot1/slot2): dslinux.org DSlinux official: dslinux.org DSlinux official Wiki: dslinux.org DSlinux Forums: www.dslinux.org DSlinux Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org ________________________________________ DOWNLOAD DSLINUX NORMAL: kineox.free.fr NO RAM PAK or DSi (optimized for no ram): www.dslinux.org ________________________________________ Use the dslinux.nds as a standard build.

    @MsGucker2009 Same here.
    I downloaded the .NDS file and simply copied it to my R4.

    Can you help me please?

    @DirtyMidgetStudios No

  9. DirtyMidgetStudios says:

    I have the original nintendo DS. Would the Lite expansion pack work for it :| ?

  10. vaserto13 says:

    It dose not boot up help.

  11. vaserto13 says:

    It dose not boot up for my help.

  12. jtfunkymojo says:

    @iphoneguruhacker66 Yes. But some more ram demanding applications, such as the Pixil GUI, will not work

  13. iphoneguruhacker66 says:

    yes, but is it possible to load it without the expansion pak?

  14. jtfunkymojo says:

    @WannaBHaxa The opera browser expansion pak. It came with the browser.
    I recommend a gba flash cart. Do some research to see what amounts of ram they have

  15. WannaBHaxa says:

    what expansion pack did you use? like, the name of it?

  16. MrMakeman says:

    Can I use a GBA game as a Ram Pak?
    How about that one thing that comes with the DS that goes in the GBA slot?

  17. MsGucker2009 says:

    cfg_rc not found? what is wrong?

  18. jtfunkymojo says:

    @tsuraraxjunzaburo As said in the video, those instructions were only for the people with the GBA build

  19. tsuraraxjunzaburo says:

    @jtfunkymojo yeah, it is. And I guess that’s why it’s not working with your tutorial ?

  20. jtfunkymojo says:

    @tsuraraxjunzaburo You’re probably using the dldi build. you don’t need to log in as root

  21. tsuraraxjunzaburo says:

    when I type “root” it says “not found”.
    What’s wrong with it?

  22. jtfunkymojo says:

    @spydude123 I want to flame you. go to the wiki/forums
    respectively: yes(duh), yes, hell no, yes.

  23. spydude123 says:

    So…. could you still play Normal DS games, and then when you want to boot to Linux you can?

    Also when using the internet browser, is it faster than the DS browser? And can it run Java and Flash?

    Ohh and can it read/play Mp3s?
