	~~=Transforming joggler to LMCE orbiter=~~
	~~==Creating device in LinuxMCE==~~
	Login to your webadmin. Go to "Orbiter" and add a new device of type "Orbiter". Set the Size to "Nokia770". Choose whatever skin and language you like. Quick reload your core and let it create the Orbiter. Anyway; you have a lot of work to do meanwhile :-)

	~~==Installing base system==~~
	~~===Download and install SqueezeOS===~~
	Get [http://birdslikewires.co.uk/articles/squeezeplay-os SqueezePlay OS] for Joggler. I suggest using the version "for internal memory". You may use the USB version and work on with an external USB stick on your joggler. However i tested this whole process using the joggler's internal flash.
	~~====Using linux====~~
	~~Unzip the download (filename may of course change if new version is released):~~
	~~gunzip sqpos109mmc.img.gz~~
	~~Plug in a 2GB (min) USB stick. Find the device name of your USB stick:~~
	~~sudo fdisk -l~~
	~~Write the image to your USB stick. '''ATTENTION: ALL FILES ON YOUR USB STICK WILL BE OVERWRITTEN !!!'''~~
	sudo umount /dev/sdX*
	~~sudo dd if=sqpos109mmc.img of=/dev/sdX bs=1M~~
	~~Where sdX is your USB device.~~
	~~====Using OSX====~~
	~~Unzip the download (filename may of course change if new version is released):~~
	~~gunzip sqpos109mmc.img.gz~~
	~~Open a Terminal window. Plug in a 2GB (min) USB stick. Find the device name of your USB stick:~~
	~~sudo diskutil list~~
	~~Write the image to your USB stick. '''ATTENTION: ALL FILES ON YOUR USB STICK WILL BE OVERWRITTEN !!!'''~~
	sudo umount -f /dev/diskX*
	~~sudo dd if=sqpos109mmc.img of=/dev/rdiskX bs=1m~~
	~~Where rdiskX is your USB device.~~

	~~===Flash it to your joggler's internal memory===~~
	~~Power off your joggler. Insert your newly prepared USB stick to your joggler's external USB port. Power on your joggler and let it flash the SqueezeOS to the internal flash memory.~~
	~~Read instructions on screen. When done remove the externel USB stick and let the joggler boot into your newly installed SqueezeOS.~~
	~~===Activating SSH server===~~
	~~Once booted into SqueezeOS go to '''"Settings > Advanced > Additional Features > OpenSSH server"''' and activate it.~~
	~~Give it some minutes to install and then try to ssh to your joggler:~~
	~~ssh joggler@<your joggler's ip>~~
	~~password is: joggler~~

	~~==Transform it to Orbiter==~~
	~~===Adapt sources.list===~~
	~~SSH to core, "sudo su" to root and replace /etc/apt/sources.list with following content:~~
	~~###### Ubuntu Main Repos~~
	~~deb http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main restricted universe multiverse~~

	~~#### LinuxMCE repo~~
	~~deb http://deb.linuxmce.org/ubuntu/ lucid beta2~~
	~~===Update installation to latest packages===~~
	~~apt-get update~~
	~~apt-get upgrade~~
	~~===Install pre requirements for Orbiter===~~
	~~apt-get install mysql-client libsdl-ttf2.0-0 libsdl-sge libsdl-gfx1.2-4 libsdl-image1.2 libhid0 icewm liblinphone3 libxcursor1 msttcorefonts~~
	~~===Create directory structure===~~
	~~mkdir -p /usr/pluto/bin~~
	~~mkdir -p /usr/pluto/lib~~
	~~mkdir -p /var/log/pluto~~

	~~chown -R joggler:joggler /usr/pluto~~
	~~chown -R joggler:joggler /var/log/pluto~~
	~~===Copy needed files from your core to your joggler===~~
	~~SSH to joggler if not yet done. You don't need to become root.<br>Copy the Orbiter binary:~~
	~~cd /usr/pluto/bin~~
	~~scp root@dcerouter:/usr/pluto/bin/Orbiter .~~
	~~Copy the needed libraries:~~
	~~cd /usr/pluto/lib~~
	~~scp root@dcerouter:/usr/pluto/lib/* .~~
	~~Note: you may need to change "dcerouter" to your core's full FQDN or to your core's IP address, depending your local environment.~~

	~~===Modify config files===~~
	~~Tell your system where to find LinuxMCE libraries needed by Orbiter:~~
	~~sudo echo /usr/pluto/lib > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/LinuxMCE.conf~~
	~~Create '''/home/joggler/startOrbiter.sh''' file with following content:~~
	~~#!/bin/bash~~
	~~while [ "1" == "1" ] ; do~~
	~~cd /usr/pluto/bin~~
	~~/usr/pluto/bin/Orbiter -r 192.168.80.1 -d <id>~~
	~~sleep 15~~
	~~done~~
	~~Replace <id> with your orbiter's ID. If for whatever reason you changed your core's IP address you must of course replace 192.168.80.1 by your own core's IP.~~

	~~Replace '''/home/joggler/.xinitrc''' file with the following content:~~
	~~export DISPLAY=:0.0~~
	~~if [ -f /home/joggler/startOrbiter.sh ]; then~~
	~~exec /home/joggler/startOrbiter.sh~~
	~~else~~
	~~xterm~~
	fi
	~~==TODO==~~
	~~On my whishlist:~~
	* Get mouse cursor hidden. All tries with unclutter or xsetroot to emptycursor failed miserably until today.
	* Make it possible to switch from Orbiter to SqueezePlay and back
	* Make mediaplay work on joggler via LMCE. At least audio. Video would be a bonus.
	* Make it auto create a new orbiter after first install
	~~Future playground:~~
	* Play with NFS boot of maybe +/- full MD ?

	=My experiences upgrading a running core / hybrid from 0810 to 1004=		=My experiences upgrading a running core / hybrid from 0810 to 1004=
	My main motivation to upgrade my core was my skystar hd2 dvb-s2 card which i never got working on my 0810 core. Everything i found on internet was based on 1004. And of course help to alpha test new lmce packages. If you feel in a need to upgrade too, you may base your work on my experiences to speed up things. I had some help from possy which i credit here.
