RE: Chromebook, Who has one?
Yes, I used the instructions http://www.apneaboard.com/wiki/index.php..._Chrome_OS
I did not try to work around the error because I know that you are trying to work out the kinks in this. I am using an i5 Pixel Slate running the Chrome OS Official Beta Channel (v 81.0.4044.94 64 bit) and Linux is enabled. If you want more system information I am happy to provide it.

(04-08-2020, 11:05 AM)arhdc Wrote: Yes, I used the instructions http://www.apneaboard.com/wiki/index.php..._Chrome_OS That error you got was due to a deficiency in the 1.0.1 package when used to install on a ChromeBook. As it says it is the post install script (that's what Debian likes to call it). However, I believe it will in fact have placed Oscar on your machine and you should be able to run it. I don't know how familiar you are with the linux command line, but if you bring up the Linux(Beta) system, and are presented with the command prompt (a window with a black background and only test in it) you can start Oscar by typing Code: OSCAR The instructions in the Wiki are written specifically for the 1.1.x version of Oscar for ChromeBooks, and you are using the 1.0.1 version. You might be better served by following the advice in this post Installing Oscar on ChromeBook from the Software Support Forum. Alternatively, Bonjour has access to a Beta-2 version of Oscar 1.1.x which should not give you this install error. The Wiki instructions you used advise downloading the 1.0.1 version of Oscar because the 1.1.x Beta-2 versions have not been formally placed into Beta. In any case comments to help us improve the Wiki instructions are welcome. They intentionally have more detail than the instructions for other platforms. I'm not sure that feedback should go in this thread; I don't want to drown out the poll. I shall rely on Bonjour to advise us.

The error you are likely to see is a graphic dialog box that has a white title bar, and an apparently empty black content, as if it's background was black, and its text was also black. You will not see this on all windows, but I have seen this lately on Oscar installations when it wants to ask you if you want to import old data from Sleepyhead, from your system. It is unlikely that anybody's ChromeBook will contain Sleepyhead data. If you get this all black box, you should move your cursor from side to side slowly across the bottom quarter or the black part, and you will probably see buttons for yes, no, and cancel appear, and stay visible. You can dismiss the window this way.

RE: Chromebook, Who has one?
Bonjour this poll may be flawed if you want to determine whether ChromeBook compatibility has value. This question is most relevant to members that have no Windows, MAC or Linux capability to use with Oscar. A ChromeBook is inexpensive and enough people own them that it might have value. Including responses of those of us with existing Oscar capability might cause us to miss those that don’t but would consider this less expensive option.

RE: Chromebook, Who has one?
Understood SR,
I look at this as a tool for those that do not have a PC or a Mac, as you said it is a less expensive option.

I use the Chromebook when travelling because it is small and can run for 3-4 days on the battery without recharging. Which Chromebook do you have? I'm wondering if it can run Oscar, and if it can, whether you could test Oscar on ChromeBooks for us, even if you decide not to use it in the long term. If you can tell us which model you have, I can look it up in the mire of Google documentation for you. |
