Jolicloud 1.0 - Tips and Tricks

July 20th, 2010 at 7:17 pm, by Jolicloud Team

At this point, we have invited a few thousand users to upgrade to Jolicloud 1.0. Don’t worry if you haven’t received the upgrade yet - by the end of the month, you will.

If you can’t wait to try out Jolicloud 1.0, you can click on this upgrade link where we provide a bunch of extra upgrades everyday, first-come-first-serve. They’re going fast, so make sure you get there early!

Below, we’ve got some notes and tips for you. We’ve worked hard to get Jolicloud 1.0 out, so we look forward to your feedback, either through the feedback form, or by emailing feedback at jolicloud dot com.

The Upgrade Process

Our upgrades have been designed and tested with the original Jolicloud product. If you have tweaked or hacked your Jolicloud in any way, we suggest that you upgrade with a clean install.

If your upgrade still isn’t working, or if our Upgrade Guide is unclear, please let us know. Don’t hesitate to Include screenshots, photos, or anything else that can help the support team  solve your problem.

The HTML5 Launcher

Apps in the HTML5 Launcher will always be synchronized between any Jolicloud device that you use. However, any app that you’ve manually installed - that is, not through Jolicloud’s App Center - won’t be visible in the Launcher and won’t be synchronized between your other devices. To access them, you can press the menu key or click on Settings.

We’ll be continuously improving the Launcher, but we would love to hear your feedback first.

Old and Small Capacity Machines

Most computers and non-netbook laptops will work with Jolicloud. That said, we cannot support every hardware architecture in the world. If you have a Intel Z5×0 processor with a GMA 500 (Poulsbo) video chipset, Jolicloud will be slightly less fluid. Netbooks using N-series Atom chips (N270, N280, N450, N470, etc) will have the best performance. If you are a Linux kernel and drivers expert and you want to help us improve compatibility on older machines, please feel free to contact us.

Keyboard Shortcuts

Jolicloud 1.0 features new keyboard shortcuts to make your life easier.

  • Windows Key - Launcher
  • Alt-Tab - switches between apps
  • Alt-F1 - Terminal
  • Alt-F2 - Application Text Launcher
  • Alt-F4 - closes the current app
  • Menu Key - the old application menu

Windows Key Menu Key
The Windows and Menu Keys

To do a quick search, go to your Launcher, hit tab, type an app’s name, select with the up and down arrow keys, and hit enter.

If you have any more questions or comments, please feel free to let us know. Happy Joliclouding!

Upgrade link dead in under 10mins! Why the staggered roll out unless its not actually a final RC?

Jolicloud has a big fan group were all delighted with your work but no one in this fast moving environment likes to be teased or kept waiting…

A more fair title would have been 1.0 released at the end of this month. Then I wouldn’t have got as excited as a 6yr old come Christmas Day :P

    Zak Kaufman | July 20, 2010 at 7:35 pm

    It’s for stability purposes. But everyone will get the upgrade.

    Tariq KRIM | July 20, 2010 at 7:36 pm

    tobotron, check your email ;)

      Tobotron | July 20, 2010 at 7:43 pm

      Je t’aime!

      "Luke" Anwar Rangkuti | July 22, 2010 at 1:58 am

      now we get to say “Tariq was here”… waka waka waka :-)

Robert Boyle | July 20, 2010 at 7:48 pm

Long time Jolicloud user, ecstatic about the upgrade, but wondering why the link won’t work. I don’t want to keep slamming the refresh button like a six year old, but I sure want to get a taste of 1.0!

    Zak Kaufman | July 20, 2010 at 7:50 pm

    It only allows for a certain number of upgrades every day.

phat | July 20, 2010 at 8:49 pm

thankyou!
finally i got it! :_D

iceman600 | July 20, 2010 at 9:07 pm

awsome… like the new interface. ive been wating for this for almost a week… loving my netbook again.

bayoubooger | July 20, 2010 at 9:31 pm

just got 1.0, everything works lights, camera, action…Thanks Guys!

PendragonUK | July 20, 2010 at 10:51 pm

I have used a great many PC OS’s in my time from DOS 5 to W7, From Low number Slackware in the mid 90’s to modern kde and Gnome Distros.

I’m sure you have put a lot of work into your GUI but I’m hard pushed to find it! I just can’t get anything done, nothing is intuitive. There are no transferable skills from other GUI’s. No pointers or help, nothing. I like to think I’m good at this type of stuff and I can’t make head not tail of it… No help! not even info on hover, no right click menus to give pointers on what a thing is or does, or is capable of. I’m at a loss as to what I’m expected to do or how to do it…

    Zak Kaufman | July 20, 2010 at 10:57 pm

    Well what are you confused about? This guide should be pretty helpful, but what else are you looking to know?

    George | July 21, 2010 at 11:37 pm

    This is my second day with Jolicloud and I can assure you there is no other OS more intuitive and easy to use. Don’t tell me you like the Windows interface more that Jolicloud’s. And don’t tell me you can’t deal with the Launcher. It’s extremely easy, even a six years old will make it through the menus. No offence but I think you AREN’T actually so good at this stuff as you ‘like to think’.

      Mike Dickson | July 25, 2010 at 10:55 am

      I have to agree with the OP - the interface is lousy - WAY worse than the pre-release candidates. Some of the web apps were useful, but a lot of what WAS useful has gone, ie the apps I made myself using PRISM. I know they are still there in a menu on their own, but why consign them like that. It’s a monumental step backwards.

      I can think of one thing you can’t do easily; get to the files in your home folder. Maybe you can tell me how.

      Dee | July 30, 2010 at 11:38 pm

      I can’t stand this new interface for Jolicloud. The old one gave me a certain amount of control and ease to adjust the system to my tastes, and i at least had access to a terminal window. This is rubbish. You have just lost a user of Jolicloud here. Thanks for nothing.

      Mike | July 31, 2010 at 5:09 am

      The new interface is okay, but I MUCH prefer the pre-final. Also, where did transmission go?!

      Aaron | August 2, 2010 at 4:03 am

      I agree with Mike and Dee…preferred the pre-release interface. I liked being able to categorize the apps in an intuitive way. I liked being able to customize my backgrounds and such and the easy switch to the blank desktop with just a couple buttons and background image.

      Where did the option to add Chrome go?

      Can we get an app to return us to the pre-release interface? I’m a lifelong Windows user, trying desperately to switch to a more efficient OS and I REALLY liked the pre-release and was enjoying it more often than Win7…just not so keen on the 1.0 interface. Give me the option to return to that layout and I’m sold!

      Jessica | August 7, 2010 at 10:20 pm

      I’ve always thought that intuitiveness is in the eye of the beholder. I’ll agree that it can be a little difficult to find some of the things we’re used to from past versions or OSes, but if you poke around a bit, you’ll find most of them. For example:

      –Getting to your home folder: From the home screen, click the tab with the folder icon. Click Drives in the left column. Click the Jolicloud hard drive icon, and the traditional file browser opens, directly into your Home folder

      –Adjusting the system via traditional preferences and administration controls: From the home screen, click the tab with the gear icon. Click This Device in the left column. Click the Legacy Apps tab, then click Local Settings. It’s a pain to get here, but once there, I actually prefer the combined layout over the separate Preferences and Administration tabs from before.

      –Terminal window access: Alt+F1 (in the article above)

      –Transmission: This was an improvement for me–in the previous build, I was unable to remove Transmission from the shortcut screens. If you want it, you can add it back like any other app.

      –Categorizing apps: You can’t label the pages, but you can arrange your apps in whatever “intuitive” way you choose. Just drag and drop icons. If you want to move an icon to another page, drop it on the corresponding dot. You can add new pages by dragging to the right-most dot that appears when dragging icons. Once placed as you like, it’s really easy to move between pages with the arrow keys.

      –”Blank desktop” with a couple of buttons: Just drag out the icons you don’t want, as described above. Sadly, no background image capability, though, at least for now….

      –Chrome: I guess we just get Chromium now, which seems awfully similar.

      I only just updated today, and I’ll grant that some things require more poking around than before, and some things (like PRISM icons and desktop backgrounds) do seem to be gone, at least for now, but the trade-off is a cleaner look to the launcher, with more room for apps, which is what I’m usually using. I liked the UNR style, but I always thought the double columns wasted a lot of space. The help access could definitely be improved, but that was true with UNR, too.

    Stephen | July 27, 2010 at 10:32 pm

    Well - maybe it’s like the old program the video thing - my kids 8 & 10 years showed ME how to use it! They love it & I do too. Thanks Joli people ;-)

      Gary | July 31, 2010 at 1:41 pm

      Im confused. you needed your kids to show you something. but what. the new interface is just a page with icons of apps. I think that is the problem. Its for an 8 year old now. Its a toy

Ivory Tusk | July 21, 2010 at 12:28 am

Thanks a lot for this link and an end to all the waiting and near/painful anticipation.

I’m no terminal-jockey but I have tried my share of linuxes on my netbook (and any other machine) but none of them has been such a breeze and working right out of the box. Don’t let anyone tell you that you’re just another pretty app store!

    Ivory Tusk | July 21, 2010 at 12:44 am

    right. one drawback. the folder view. i like the jolicloud-compatible look of the few folders that are shown (ok, they’re customizeable), but sadly it ends there. And i’d like the dropbox icon to also point to my dropbox folder, and not just to their website…

Mark | July 21, 2010 at 3:13 am

the keyboard shortcut under preferences does not work. I would like to customize the shortcuts but it does not work

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 8:48 pm

    There’s a fix in testing already.

Todd Eddy | July 21, 2010 at 3:33 am

Quick question, how do I “effortlessly delete” apps? Can’t find any way to delete them.

    Todd Eddy | July 21, 2010 at 3:37 am

    Oh, you need to hover on the text of the application and you’ll get an arrow to click on and choose delete. Not very intuitive. Maybe bring up that highlight on the text when you hover over the icon as well. I was just right clicking on the icon itself and wondered why I didn’t have any options.

      George | July 21, 2010 at 11:43 pm

      I like it that way. It will be pain in the butt when it hovers every time you’re on the icon… IMO

      Francisko | July 24, 2010 at 8:02 am

      Sorry, but it doen’t work the way you described. I’ve playing with Jolicloud these past days and up to now I didn’t find how to remove and application previously installed. No menu when hovering on text or icons.

      running Jolicloud 1.0 on Eee PC 4G (the historical ancestor)

Arhn | July 21, 2010 at 7:00 am

Hi all,
Is there a way to “close” the new interface ? Not that I don’t like it, but I’d appreciate to have a nice wallpaper instead.

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 7:08 am

    Not right now there isn’t. But customization is under consideration for the future.

Fred Zelders | July 21, 2010 at 7:49 am

How can one flip from the first Dashboard page to the next and back again?
(I don’t have a touch sensitive display)

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 8:00 am

    Just use the white buttons on the bottom.

      Simon B. | July 29, 2010 at 7:31 pm

      I was wondering soo much about that single white button. I click, hover, ctrl-click and anything in between with no effect, apparently since I have only 10 or so apps on one page. PLEASE give the white icons an “alt” text that says something like “show page 1″ and please hide it when there is only one page available.

helloct | July 21, 2010 at 9:05 am

Ouff, my invitation have just come. (after a so long week)
BIG THANK.

Brian Millan | July 21, 2010 at 10:07 am

Thanks for the upgrade! Jolicloud is number 1

marcosesperon | July 21, 2010 at 10:26 am

Congratulations! Jolicloud 1.0 is amazing and works fine on my EeePC 900.

Just one little question: where is now the check updates button? I don’t find it…

Thanks!

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 8:49 pm

    The launcher checks for updates automatically and tells you when they’re available.

Ian | July 21, 2010 at 10:26 am

Got a 1.0 invite via the blog and am really impressed - I haven’t used a modern Linux distribution for ages. I have Jolicloud installed on a net-top but considering installing over my Window 7 build.

The iphone inspired interface is pretty cool. Very impressed, congrats all.

Ricardo | July 21, 2010 at 10:30 am

I can not download Jolicloud. I have tried from different places with different computers and it has been impossible.

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 8:49 pm

    The servers should be fine now.

stinkupuss | July 21, 2010 at 12:10 pm

The suspense is killing me already! No invite yet….arrrgghhh!

Aleksander | July 21, 2010 at 12:12 pm

When will the 1.0 be available to download on the website.

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 8:49 pm

    After the user upgrades, I think.

Aleksander | July 21, 2010 at 12:13 pm

?

docboy | July 21, 2010 at 12:36 pm

Thanks for including me for the upgrade! I love the new interface, i just hope i can change the desktop background.
Its nice and very fast! Jolicloud is perfect for my compaq mini110c.

Thank you and more power to the Team!

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 8:50 pm

    Wallpapers aren’t possible for now, but may be in the future.

Qikon | July 21, 2010 at 1:21 pm

Wow, that was easy, and it rocks! Thank you Jolicloud!

kris | July 21, 2010 at 1:22 pm

download does not work for ISO it gives this URL

http://www.vdoencode.com/90/118/6/Jolicloud-PreFinal.iso

which does nothing in IE, Firefox or Chrome, also does nothing at all in UTorrent apart from give a HTTP 403 error..

im loving the fact your restricting the amount of people who get the new version, what a way to loose people to ubuntu netbook edition (no download limits)

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 8:51 pm

    The servers should be fine now. Try it again.

Cintra | July 21, 2010 at 2:10 pm

Like the new interface :) Surprised to find that Google Chrome app is actually Chromium.. hoping it will be possible to use the dev version of the former sometime soon..?

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 8:52 pm

    Jolicloud only has the beta version of Chrome. but if you have Chromium open, it will open Chromium again. And since the launcher is made with Chromium, it’s difficult to get Chrome to open. Working on that.

Tim de Jong | July 21, 2010 at 4:21 pm

A bunch of every updates a day hmmm… early? what timezone?

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 8:52 pm

    Probably based on Paris. But I’m not sure.

tankarmorsuita | July 21, 2010 at 6:14 pm

Thank you so much Jolicloud! The new interface is clean, responsive, and gorgeous to say the least. Please fix the continuing inability of the system to resume operation after suspend/lid closure on the Acer Aspire ZA3 (Poulsbo). If you could repair this singular flaw I would never boot into windows ever again. Aside from that one flaw, the new interface is beautiful and amazing. Thanks again!

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 8:53 pm

    This will have to be fixed later, yes. It’s a known issue with some netbooks (including mine).

Kevin | July 21, 2010 at 7:22 pm

Awesome, you guys are the best!

Michael Kaptur | July 21, 2010 at 8:00 pm

Good work on your OS! I was juggling linux distributions for some time (Moblin, Easy-Peasy, Ubuntu) until i found Moblin which i loved. But this love it self is not so perfect. I found that my Eee PC 901 battery life is less efficient then on Win XP. I’m waiting every day for a mail from You to check out if this relationship will improve after upgrading to 1.0. :)

    Zak Kaufman | July 21, 2010 at 8:53 pm

    Battery life will be vastly improved in the future. But 1.0 does have a few improvements of its own.

judas | July 22, 2010 at 3:30 am

Hay guys, thank you all for this 1.0

Im a proud Founding Member and because of that Ive had a little issue coming with me: my computer is not that model Jolicloud thinks it is. By the time I got my invitation, LG X110 was not officially supported, so I said “MSI Wind” and walked away. Now, Id love to be able to show the correct name.

Not a big issue, as I said, but Im sure you understand. Can this be done or should I let it go?

    Zak Kaufman | July 22, 2010 at 3:45 am

    I don’t think this can be done right now, since all of your apps are tied to your account. So if you disassociated the machine from your account, you may lose all of your synced apps. It’d be safer to leave it alone for now until there is a real method of doing this, I think.

      judas | July 22, 2010 at 6:00 am

      No problem.

      Btw, you should highlight and recommend using chrome extensions to improve some web apps, like facebook or google calendar/mail. Both working together make a perfect couple.

Gerald | July 22, 2010 at 7:23 am

Hi - 1.0 is very neat. I have a question. With Chromium, it’s possible to create applications shortcuts. Is there a way to save the apps created directly on the desktop? Wouldn’t this be cool?

    Zak Kaufman | July 22, 2010 at 7:34 am

    Not yet, but it’s a possibility for the future.

      PH | July 25, 2010 at 10:40 pm

      Hope adding Chromium applications shortcuts directly on the desktop will be possible in a - very - near future !

Stan | July 22, 2010 at 9:47 am

Hi, I have a question for Jolicloud team, I’ve been selected to upgrade to 1.0 yesterday but since I’m unable to upgrade. The system knows that I can upgrade in 1.0 version but he doesn’t install it, he is blocked while upgrading is it because the servers are overloaded or something else?

Thanks for your help

    Stan | July 22, 2010 at 9:59 am

    Moreover I’m experiencing troubles to connect to myjolicloud. Firefox says that the server is not responding (time out) but in the mean time I can go on the internet without any problem

      Zak Kaufman | July 22, 2010 at 10:09 am

      Try pressing F5 to fix this.

    Zak Kaufman | July 22, 2010 at 10:09 am

    Are you getting some kind of error? Can you maybe provide more details in an email to feedback?

      Stan | July 22, 2010 at 10:20 am

      I managed to connect to myjolicloud but the computer still crashes while I try to update to 1.0 version. If you can provide me some support via e-mail I’m ok ! :D

Eric Tibble | July 22, 2010 at 10:20 am

I would like to add some web links to the apps launcher.
Is that possible?

    Zak Kaufman | July 22, 2010 at 10:26 am

    Not right now, but maybe in the future.

      Nikhil Gupta | July 24, 2010 at 8:20 pm

      Will be great, if you can do it sooner.. This is one of the important functionalities, I would be looking in for.

edi_teslic | July 22, 2010 at 2:07 pm

Hi guys, four days ago I installed Jolicloud 1.0 and from then I can’t use anymore my power button to shutdown my netbook. I’m using a Lenovo IdeaPad S10e. My settings says that when I press the power button, it should shut down the netbook but nothing happens so the problem is not in the settings. Have you any idea? Despite that, I’m really enjoying it because it’s simple, fast and beacuse it increases my battery life in compare to Windows XP or Windows 7.
I hope you’ll make it even better through the time, bye! :)

    Zak Kaufman | July 22, 2010 at 9:02 pm

    This has been reported already. It’s being looked into.

nidzo | July 22, 2010 at 5:19 pm

jolicloud 1.0 looks like it’s running in a browser. After logon , in lover left corner i can see “waiting for http://www.i_don‘t_remember_what.com”
But it doesn’t matter jolicloud is a great os. It’s super fast even under virtualbox. I haven’t bought a netbook yet, but i heard that windows7 can be sluggish on a netbook , so i needed better os and i found it.

    Stan | July 22, 2010 at 5:42 pm

    I have exactly the same problem as you, I can’t launch My Jolicloud for the upper left icon

      Stan | July 22, 2010 at 6:01 pm

      I just passed to 1.0 oh my god I love it !!!

Fredil | July 22, 2010 at 6:28 pm

Well I’m off to UNR or whatever it’s called now….I’ve waited around while the ‘hype’ kept me hostage for Jolicloud all the while wondering if any of the ‘love and kisses’ was truely warrented. Let me be clear this is not Open Source in it’s true form. It’s instead an OS flavour created for marketing so it seems. Has anyone ever seem a release of an OS or SW that has been invitation only. Sure for beta’s we see that but not something that supposedly is a proper release. Further the Jolicloud’s teams applicasrtion approval smacks of the same App Store within the Apple domain. Frankly being told what i can and can’t install in a so called Open Source world is not one i will join. Understandably Jolicloud approves apps based on some finacial gain from those sites, and programs. And if they don’t at the current time you can bet that it’s factored into the value of the company for it’s eventual sale or public offering. No thanks it’s off to Ubuntu for me.

    nidzo | July 22, 2010 at 7:25 pm

    i don’t care if apps are open source or how they are aproved . If everything works well i am satisfied. You can install a .deb package on jolicloud.

    Zak Kaufman | July 22, 2010 at 9:04 pm

    I’m not sure what you’re implying by all of this, but I’m very sorry that you didn’t like the release.

      Mike Dickson | July 25, 2010 at 11:01 am

      Zak - he’s just saying what I have been saying too. Why the decision to prevent us from sticking our own web apps shortcuts on the launcher? That decision alone has rendered Jolicloud pretty much useless to me.

      Perhaps I know what I want my netbook to do (and go) better than Jolicloud does!

    Mark | July 23, 2010 at 7:00 pm

    wow, where to start….

    “Well I’m off to UNR or whatever it’s called now….I’ve waited around while the ‘hype’ kept me hostage for Jolicloud all the while wondering if any of the ‘love and kisses’ was truely warrented.”

    What does that mean? who’s kept you hostage? The prefinal has been available for some time. If you didn’t like that, surely 1.0 wasn’t going to magically win you over.

    “Let me be clear this is not Open Source in it’s true form. It’s instead an OS flavour created for marketing so it seems.”

    Every single release of any Linux distro is a “flavour” of the Linux OS.

    “Has anyone ever seem a release of an OS or SW that has been invitation only. Sure for beta’s we see that but not something that supposedly is a proper release.”

    This isn’t invitation only. The small team (or is it only you Zak?) is slowly releasing the final version, in order of original membership to reward the first members for sticking around so long. This is most likely an attempt to se how the upgrade goes, and to catch any annoying bugs before releasing to the world. It’s quite smart actually.

    “Further the Jolicloud’s teams applicasrtion approval smacks of the same App Store within the Apple domain.”

    Yes, it does - which is a good thing, and they share the same goals as Apple. Jolicloud aims to be the Linux distro “that just works”, and it does. If installed on supported machines, everything just works (with very few exceptions).

    “Frankly being told what i can and can’t install in a so called Open Source world is not one i will join.”

    You can install anything you want on top of Jolicloud, you’ll just have to launch it from the applications folder instead of the launcher.

    “Understandably Jolicloud approves apps based on some finacial gain from those sites, and programs. And if they don’t at the current time you can bet that it’s factored into the value of the company for it’s eventual sale or public offering.”

    That’s just plain ridiculous. Apps, I’m sure, are approved when there’s time to test for compatibility. You must be aware that Apple has a team of people testing submitted applications, while Jolicloud has what.. 1 ..2 people?

    Patience is rewarded with a FREE linux distro that just works, with easy installs and configuration, and looks extremely polished.

    “No thanks it’s off to Ubuntu for me.”

    Good for you.

edy | July 22, 2010 at 6:58 pm

thank you, jolicloud 1.0 is the best netbook distro.

gastonmdq | July 22, 2010 at 8:25 pm

Im waiting the upgrade!!!! I want Jolicloud 1.0!!! I love Jolicloud!!! its brillant!!

John | July 23, 2010 at 12:04 am

Hi I love Jolicloud 1.0 apart from my tweetdeck has vanished and the only way I can get to it is the long winded route via desktop, how do I get it back with the rest of my apps, pls help

    Zak Kaufman | July 23, 2010 at 12:28 am

    Use the menu key as mentioned above.

Mojo | July 23, 2010 at 1:45 am

Great release, love JC 1.0.. It works great on macbook, the last issure with backlight brightness are also gone with 1.0 update, work perfect on my macbook, and chrome is blazing fast on mac.. compiz work fine with 0.9, but need to turn off, or windows redraw all over the place.. But I have a problem is mac don’t have a menu key, I can’t use it to get the old application menu, where I have teamviewer, picasa and a few other non-JC app installed, go to setting–>device–>local apps and use terminal launch app is not that efficient.. can I assign “open old application menu” to another key and how..?? Is there a way I can add my non-JC app to app menu..??

    Zak Kaufman | July 23, 2010 at 2:23 am

    I don’t think it’s possible right now. But keyboard shortcuts will be customizable later.

George | July 23, 2010 at 2:24 pm

Well i followed the update link, got the message that i am rady for the update, download it, made the update, rstarted but although the update process says i already have jolicloud 1, i still got 0.9…

My jolicloud updates now do not open at all…

What went wrong?What should i do now?

    Zak Kaufman | July 23, 2010 at 3:05 pm

    If you still have the updater in your system tray, open it and press F5 to refresh it.

      George | July 23, 2010 at 4:20 pm

      when i restarted my system, the only think i had on my system tray were:
      upper left corner, instead of little home icon, the cloud icon,making thesame “job” as the home icon.
      right corner, ONLY the network,cpu,volume,caps and num lock buttons and system time.
      choosing the jolicloud update button from the menus(still in the form of 0.9)gave me a blank page…
      trying to download the update package again from the link provided, gave me a message said:
      “u already using jolicloud 1.0!!!!!!”
      But checking it from system tab, i have 0.9…

    Khy | July 30, 2010 at 9:16 pm

    I have the same problem here.
    Do you have resolve it?

Inouk | July 23, 2010 at 5:28 pm

When will the iso be released? With all the extra programs i installed i would rather do a fresh install.

    Zak Kaufman | July 24, 2010 at 12:18 am

    After the user upgrades have been completed, I think.

Ben C | July 23, 2010 at 5:29 pm

These issues may have already been mentioned, but I can’t remember.

Netbook Model: NB205-N311W

1. OS will no longer lock upon suspend.

2. Even thought it can be misleading. I miss the approximate time until the battery dies is.

3. Last but not least, thanks for Jolicloud. I really enjoy the OS and plan on being a big supporter!

Alex | July 23, 2010 at 7:50 pm

Is there any way to revert back to the Alpha 2c build, because I find the 1.0 upgrade to bring you back to the stone age. There is hardly any customization, there isn’t even an option to change the wallpaper and the fact you have to minimize an app to return to the home page is anything but user-intuitive.

    Zak Kaufman | July 24, 2010 at 12:19 am

    You can try to find a torrent, but I don’t think the services will work properly.

    Jessica | August 8, 2010 at 2:39 am

    Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but don’t you just click on the cloud to get home? I don’t seem to need to minimize apps. Seems like a simple icon change, to me.

mchabot | July 23, 2010 at 10:01 pm

Where is my upgrade email???? :) I know patience is a virtue

    Zak Kaufman | July 24, 2010 at 12:19 am

    Right, everyone will get one.

Mike Dickson | July 24, 2010 at 12:07 am

Sorry - I can’t hide my enormous disappointment with the interface of 1.0 - in the last launcher we had a bunch of web apps sorted by category and direct access to folders.

Now, everything appears to be lumped into one folder which is a hark back to the halycon days of DOS 1.0 which didn;t have any folder support either. I know you can access the old menu via the menu key, but that almost begs the question why you don’t have that on the desktop. It’s all very well advertising 700+ apps, but what mess would THAT make of the system?

Now I have to remember on what page any of my installed apps. Not helpful. The fact that my many web apps that I installed myself have vanished from the screen doesn’t endear me to it much either. Sorry, but Jolicloud now looks and feels really dumbed down and frankly, I’m not entirely sure I want to carry on using it. :-(

    Paulo | July 24, 2010 at 8:05 pm

    If do you want a netbook remix interface why don’t use UNE. I think Jolicloud should not be another clone of it.

      Mike Dickson | July 25, 2010 at 11:03 am

      I don’t think it should be another clone either. But what is -was- is a lot better than what it has become.

    Steve | July 30, 2010 at 4:14 pm

    I agree completely. I really liked the older version of JC and this new version is a step back in so many areas. The overall usability / intuitiveness has drastically decreased as has functionality. Disabling several of the top apps I used (Chrome, VLC, Skype, Open Office) has been really frustrating. It doesn’t appear I can access my drives / file folder system either now…

    Gary | July 31, 2010 at 1:31 pm

    I agree with you. I cant figure out why some people say 1.0 is great when its just a screen of apps. I feel like its a useless iPHONE. Now I just have a kids toy with some pretty buttons to push. Or my computer is not working right and I am missing something. Could someone tell me what 1.0 actually gives us???

John | July 24, 2010 at 1:20 am

Which is the menu button?

    Zak Kaufman | July 24, 2010 at 1:39 am

    It’s pictured in the blog post above.

      ajaxjones | August 8, 2010 at 1:17 am

      DOnt have a menu button on my netbook. I cant work out why Jolicloud have tried to clone the iPad menu either. Very strange business decision

Richard | July 24, 2010 at 3:17 am

Would really like to try version 1.0, any ETA when the rest of the users will get to try it?

    Zak Kaufman | July 24, 2010 at 6:57 pm

    Everyone will get one soon.

Gerald | July 24, 2010 at 8:10 am

I agree with Mike. The fact we can’t place apps on the launcher, save Chromium apps on the launcher is ridiculous. I defenetly prefer to use Ubuntu.

Francisko | July 24, 2010 at 8:25 am

I upgraded to version 1.0 since 21 july on my venerable Eee 4G. Upgrade process was straightforward and everything works fine.
The minimalist interface reminds me the spirit of good-old Xandros, UNR, and some others netbook-oriented OS I tested before.
Not being a Linux techie, I appreciate not being obliged to open the hood to configure my device to make it work.

Overall it’s a good job. Keep on going like that, you’re on the right track.

Despite what people say, keep it simple. That’s the spirit of a netbook. If you want a highly configurable system, buy a fullsize laptop with more power. But netbook are designed to be use minimum resources and web-oriented apps.

radiant | July 24, 2010 at 9:21 am

Just installed Jolicloud express Robby two days ago and instantly in love with it :)
One problem though, now my windows 7 can not hibernate. Not a big problem but I still wonder why…

    Zak Kaufman | July 24, 2010 at 6:58 pm

    This would have nothing to do with Jolicloud.

    Paulo | July 24, 2010 at 8:02 pm

    Maybe your windows partition is out of space to save the hibernation.

Max Outdoor | July 24, 2010 at 12:19 pm

When will there be an update for everybody?

    Zak Kaufman | July 24, 2010 at 6:58 pm

    As stated above, it’s already being rolled out.

Sandra | July 24, 2010 at 3:02 pm

Hi!
I was using jolicloud pre-final in a medion akoya E1217.
When i tried to update to 1.0, my pc crashed and jolicloud stopped working.
I’ve reinstaled and reupdated few times, but my pc always crashed :/
I don’t know why is happening this.

Sorry about my bad english :(

    Zak Kaufman | July 24, 2010 at 6:59 pm

    If you’re using a language other than English, try updating before you change the language.

Paulo | July 24, 2010 at 7:59 pm

Awesome OS. Now a lot different from UNE, with its own personality.

Congratulations and thanks!

Ben C | July 24, 2010 at 9:27 pm

Is there a way to turn my screen resolution up higher than 1024 x 600 thats listed? I’m using a NB205-N311W with Jolicloud 1.0.

Thanks

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:14 am

    Not if that’s the netbook’s native resolution, no.

cahyo | July 25, 2010 at 12:23 am

hi..where i can get it? download doesnt work,bit torrent doesn’t work either

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:15 am

    Read the previous blog post, it’s being rolled out.

John | July 25, 2010 at 12:40 am

My menu button doesnt work, it just toggles browser and desktop. any ideas!!!!!!

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:15 am

    Make sure you’re using the menu button and not the Windows key. It’s pictured above.

Uffe | July 25, 2010 at 6:06 am

So far so good! 1.0 is very interesting and runs well. Upgraded on both of my netbooks, one is an HP Mini 1030NR, the other is an ASUS 1000HE.
Here’ my question. On the HP Mini I have no symbols in the upper right hand corner to close/minimise/maximise any windows. On the ASUS the symbols appear. I tried different themes but it makes no difference.

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:16 am

    The title bar is removed to save vertical screen space. Use the window icons in the top left.

Jean | July 25, 2010 at 8:12 am

I’m leaving in France and I want to know the timezone for the extra upgrades, at what time the day start.
Since 4 days I try every hour but no luck!
Thanks in advance and congratulation with this program.

Juan Manuel | July 25, 2010 at 8:31 am

My asus eee pc 701 runs slow flash videos from internet (even full loaded). CPU goes to 95/100% usage, with chromium or firefox is the same. With old Jolicloud version I didn’t have this problem. Any idea?

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:17 am

    It’s a Flash issue, not a Jolicloud one. Ask Adobe for Flash improvements on Linux!

Aurelien | July 25, 2010 at 11:04 am

Hi guys,
I’ ve been impressed by your work so far, the hardware detection, intuitivity, etc …
However i got a few problems on my netbook, (touchpad being funny, some troubles to get to the home screen, system lag, keyboard shortcuts not working etc …) and i read that a bunch of those will be sorted out in the 1.0.
Would you have a rough idea about when I’ ll be able to upgrade ?
Or can I do it manually ?
Cheers !

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:21 am

    Sorry, but it would help to know what netbook you have.

Uffe | July 26, 2010 at 5:15 am

In the “folders tab” or whatever you call it, “documents, music, pictures and videos” appear. I have a usb drive and an sd card installed. They don’t appear but videos do, which I don’t have in Nautilus. How can I mirror what’s “underneath” this new GUI.

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:21 am

    Sorry, I don’t understand what you’re trying to do.

Ron | July 26, 2010 at 4:54 pm

Is touch going to work on Jolicloud 1.0 with the Asus T91MT?

    Jorgan | July 26, 2010 at 5:49 pm

    …I hope also for Acer 1825ptz! ;)

    Then it´s a really cool OS for surfing on the couch! ;))

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:22 am

    Touch support is two blog posts down. Yes it will.

Alaa | July 26, 2010 at 5:52 pm

I’m trying Jolicloud on my desktop. It’s very very slow and not responsive and can’t detect my Samsung LCD 37″ screen. The picture is trimmed from the conrners.
CPU: AMD Phenom II X 3
Graphic Card : ATI HD 4300

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:22 am

    Sorry, desktops are not supported. It’s most likely your graphics card.

skooal | July 26, 2010 at 6:25 pm

Perfect on my acer aspire one, it took a few hours to get used to it but after that… fantastic, couldn’t fream of better features.

Thanks a bunch.

Merci a tous et continuez de vous surpasser…

Robert | July 26, 2010 at 8:46 pm

Hi !
In version 1.0(html 5) it is possible to create a shortcut to my Jolicloud page?

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:23 am

    Not yet, it’s being considered for the future.

ted | July 27, 2010 at 12:30 am

can you play games in jolicloud? like counterstrike?

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:23 am

    Only if they have Linux versions or they run in Wine. I can’t imagine your netbook will play ti very well, though.

Imre Toth | July 27, 2010 at 8:22 am

Hy!
The Jolicloud is the best OS for my netbook! Fantastic! Creative! Intuitiv! :-)
But ..
I can’t upgrade to 1.0. WHY?

Bye!

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:24 am

    You need to wait for an upgrade.

hyoga | July 27, 2010 at 11:11 am

pls help

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:24 am

    Known issue, but thanks for reporting.

in-Z-ane | July 27, 2010 at 11:29 am

So when are you going to update the website with the 1.0 Version?
it’s totaly crap to “hype” it like that, “you have to be fast, we only let download it for a few people a day…” Bullshit! just add a download link and everyone is happy…

I’m not going to wait much longer for JC 1.0… your fault!

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:24 am

    Please be patient, everyone will get an upgrade.

Aurelien | July 27, 2010 at 1:25 pm

@ Alaa
Jolicloud is optimised for notebooks. It’ s for that reason it doesn’ t provide ATI drivers, doesn’ t detect your screen etc …
You should stick to desktop distributions, which are more suited for your configuration. :)

dRB | July 27, 2010 at 4:48 pm

I’ve been in and out of the update site, however, the same message continues to be displayed “oops! done for the day…” Would be nice to be able to process the update.

robingilh | July 27, 2010 at 5:02 pm

Yes, I really want 1.0 upgrade too. The upgrade site always says the same message and I can’t have the 1.0.
Please, if an admin is reading my message, can you send me a link to upgrade !

Jimmy | July 27, 2010 at 7:03 pm

Would really like to get the upgrade. I have a Crystal HD card in my netbook and I understand that 1.0 has support for it.

Thanks!

Cold Solder | July 27, 2010 at 9:11 pm

AMAZING!!! I see about 3 out of every 5 comments complaining about this, that or the other. If you complainers really believe its bad, not working as YOU believe it should then please feel free to utilize the other free or even paid OS’s out there OR You could even compile your own from freely available open source. I cannot do any better than what these people have done. I have neither the time or resources to undertake such a work. Only reason why I even checked this out id because I was curious to what it was when I seen a link posted on a friends page. Not for me, not yet. Perhaps in a year or so it may be. So, Complain as you like BUT this is still free and 99.9% of you could not do any better than to say “ill be going back to UNR or whatever you ran before this” ungrateful minions. I’m sure the creators have skillfully made a place to post about problems your having so they can collaborate and fix common problems before fixing someones tiny problem on a no name brand machine, although it might be related to another, it might need a completely different fix. Given the amount of people working on this, it may be a while before ALL of your problems are addressed and fixed. With NO cost to you of course BUT given the creators limitations, I wouldn’t doubt it if they started charging for support, I know I would and would rake in a million before the first week ;) just issuing basic fixes for chronic complainers and whiners….”its free yet it wont do what i want, wah wah wah!!!!!

Get educated in building linux OS’s from scratch, take the time to build your own OS, and provide your own tech support. Whut? it crashed? Trace it down and rebuild until it dont. By then your equipment will be outdated and youll be ready for the retirement home. Good Luck!!

    dRB | July 28, 2010 at 4:32 am

    wow! I couldn’t disagree more … from what I read, I see elevated anticipation from those “3 out of 5″ commenters; and not an arena of complainers (as you put it) who really believe its bad (as you put it)

    And based on the balance of your comment … you may want to climb down before you fall and hurt yourself

    Aurelien | July 28, 2010 at 9:05 am

    I couldn’ t agree more. But while whining about problems doesn’ t resolve much, reporting them is still an important process in the developement of a distribution ! There just is a courteous way of doing it ;

    - Do not moan.
    - Do not insult the devs work nor say ” The guys from the other distro can do it and not you, you suck. I’ m going back with them”. It’ s just irritating and don’ t think you’ re that important.
    - Google.
    - Google again.
    - Try forums, (For Jolicloud try also Debian and Ubuntu forums. It could be solved there).
    - When reporting your problem, try to be as concise as possible (ie : Terminal output and such …).
    - Be patient.

    Alex | July 30, 2010 at 11:51 pm

    Most of us are complaining because we have been users since the alpha version and with the realase of 1.0, it seems to me that much of the functionality that the alpha version had, has been lost with the upgrade. Many of the things such as customization: allowing backgrounds has been overlooked, as well as problems that have been known for a while. For example, my HP Mini 1000 Mi has not had sound for quite a while with Jolicloud.

      Gary | July 31, 2010 at 2:08 pm

      I agree. Why have beta versions everyone likes, then go to an extra effort to release something people don’t like.

Gareth Hughes | July 28, 2010 at 6:28 am

Looks wonderful. Well done.

Two tiny issues:
how can I stop that little drum noise when it’s at the logon prompt? I disabled all sounds with no effect.

The upgrade to 1.0 edited my grub setup so now it boots straight into Jolicloud with no time to choose another OS. I can fix it but would prefer not to.
That’s the only things, it’s a big improvement.

    Aurelien | July 28, 2010 at 9:12 am

    I think you have to hold the shift button while booting.

    More about Grub 2 :
    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275

    For the drum sound, I don’ t have the 1.0 but on the pre-final it’ s in Preferences > Sound > In the alert and sound effect, scroll down to Desktop and disable Login.

      Aurelien | July 28, 2010 at 9:18 am

      If it doesn’ t work for the sound, Administration > Login Window > Accessibility untick the box on sounds.

      Gareth Hughes | July 28, 2010 at 1:38 pm

      Thanks for that. Both worked.
      Can I suggest a timeout of 2 seconds in grub. I expect a lot of people run more than one OS on their netbook, after all they almost all come with windows.

    Simon B. | July 29, 2010 at 7:46 pm

    Try the “old applications” menu (between AltGr and right Ctrl), pick System, Preferences, Startup Applications and untick “Login Sound”. I think that should do it.

Marc | July 28, 2010 at 3:09 pm

Hey my wireless keyboard that I use when i hook my netboot to the tv doesn’t have a menu key.

Any other way to get at the menu. Right click would be nice:)

*sniff* I thought it’d check at precisely midnight but apparently the upgrades where already gone then. Checked at 1 a.m. too :/
I’m really not good at waiting ;)

Ellix | July 28, 2010 at 6:26 pm

Jolicloud 1.0 looks awesome! I just updated to it - hehe :D
Has anyone else experienced this though? Or better yet- know how to fix it? Whenever I try to browse through the apps I want to add it keeps flicking back to the application menu of my already installed apps.
What’s up with that? I’m not clicking on anything and suddenly it jumps!

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:29 am

    Try an F5 on your launcher.

Peter | July 28, 2010 at 7:00 pm

I install most of my apps through apt-get, and have added several custom items to the existing menu (scripts, etc). Will the new launcher recognize all of these? Can apt-get installs and custom scripts be added to the new launcher?

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:29 am

    No it won’t. Apps not installed via the app center are not supported.

      Mike Dickson | July 31, 2010 at 3:40 pm

      Zak - please tell me why, would you?

Alex | July 28, 2010 at 10:11 pm

When can we expect the 1.0 .iso? I am waiting for it’s release. If the servers cannot cope with it why don’t you release it via torrent or something?

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:30 am

    At this rate, probably soon.

true grift | July 29, 2010 at 12:15 am

just curious when the 1.0 update will happen. i reinstalled jolicloud on my netbook about a month ago. would that move me back in line as far as the upgrades go? is the plan still to release 1.0 across the board before July is through?

That being said the pre-robby release is amazing, you guys have really, really, really, done a wonderful job. Kudos!

    Zak Kaufman | July 29, 2010 at 12:31 am

    Upgrades are linked to your account, not your local files.

J4V13R | July 29, 2010 at 4:23 am

Hi,

I have been a Jolicloud user for the past few months. This is my first netbook and just wanted to get rid of windows for good… that is when I found out that my Acer Aspire One has a poulsbo module from hell that prevents some open source OS to work properly. After trying several linux distros I stumbled upon Jolicloud, which is a great OS all in all. Intuitive, easy to use, fast and reliable. I think you guys have made an excellent job in developing it.

I have to accept though, that it is annoying and a little cruel not being able to update to 1.0 right away. I, myself have been waiting for it for a couple of weeks already. It is frustrating for many users because of the emotional part of the whole Jolicloud experience, i.e. being special just because you use Jolicloud, finally not being dependent on microsoft/apple, getting the best possible performance out of your computer and having an OS that just works (and beautifully).

I think this was a small misstep from the team and perhaps, as some posters said before, it would have been better to handle it as a RC for some users only and say that the final stable version would be available in whatever time the team considers all the bugs and glitches would be sorted out; however, on the rational side think about this:

Jolicloud is an open source OS and, as such, you are not paying a dime for what you get. There is a considerable amount of work put into it from the members of the team who make it possible and this is why it is a great system, otherwise you would not be here whining and complaining about the update.

So thanks Jolicloud team for working so damn hard and please let us have the update so we can go back to our passionate love affair!! =D

    Zak Kaufman | July 30, 2010 at 12:52 am

    Thanks for the suggestion!

Gerald | July 29, 2010 at 7:54 am

Hi,

After upgrading to 1.0 last week, I was disapointed with the non possibility to place apps on the launcher. I decided to use an other distro, But today, I’m back to Jolicloud. It’s fun, lovely and fast.

eamonireland | July 29, 2010 at 8:06 am

The upgrade didn’t work for me on my HP Mini 110. The upgrade stalled after about 10 minutes, and didn’t progress over the next 3 hours. I closed the update window, and rebooted. I have information that I’m on 1.0 when I log on, but I have the old interface, and the update screen is just a blank grey screen. Help. I’ve never had a problem with Jolicloud before. It’s just worked!

    Zak Kaufman | July 30, 2010 at 12:53 am

I installed Jolicloud on my grandparents’ computer. They had pretty much given up on Windows due to admin issues (patch, Av updates etc etc). Ubuntu did not have full hardware support on their PC (wireless was very flaky). They were pretty much at the mercy of the local IT support companies and have been spending huge sums on repairs. Now with Jolicloud, thats changed - for better! The OS is easy to use and PC is stable. They are very happy.

Thank you work the wonderful work. Jolicloud is the “People’s Linux”!

mark | July 29, 2010 at 4:59 pm

Same problem as eamonireland above. Update process stalled for about 2 hours “unable to get data”. Any thoughts ?

    Zak Kaufman | July 30, 2010 at 12:53 am

    Same response as above. By the way, this bug should be fixed.

Besim Durgun | July 29, 2010 at 10:02 pm

Great job, guys! Was worth the waiting for! I have eeepc 1101ha(poulsbo) and msi 670(nvidia) -yes not a netbook!- perfectly upgraded synced and running JC 1.0 as of today. I have resolved the issue about placing links or local apps on launcher by placing them on the panel as they are or in a drawer. Thanks a million!

Jordan | July 30, 2010 at 12:26 am

Any ETA on when the 1.0 will be pushed out? I would really like to upgrade to the new version. It looks great!

    Zak Kaufman | July 30, 2010 at 12:54 am

    Not yet, but probably sooner than you think.

      Menno Koster | July 30, 2010 at 8:33 am

      I hope it will come soon, my girlfriend is terrorizing me about ‘windows is better’ and ‘it doesn’t look like the youtube movie you’ve showed me’ (that’s the problem with a girlfriend who wants windows cause ‘it’s so easy and everybody uses it’ and me wanting to have linux on every computer in the house)

      congratulations on such’s a beautiful launcher, jolicloud! I’ve had ubuntu netbook remix for ever now, but when i saw this, oh man!! Hope to get te upgrade soon!!

adicahya | July 30, 2010 at 10:40 am

thnks for the upgrade,
anyway..it would be nice it we can put the legacy app into the main home screen.

and, i also find it difficult to uninstall legacy app, since synaptic can not running. i had to stop the html launcher first before able to run synaptic and remove old apps

    Zak Kaufman | July 31, 2010 at 1:50 am

    Synaptic is not supported in Jolicloud.

    aram | July 31, 2010 at 1:56 am

    try going to terminal and then sudo into superuser, enter your login password. type synaptic and do what you need to.

Oxoid | July 30, 2010 at 1:13 pm

You said it would be out by the end of the month. FAIL

    Zak Kaufman | July 31, 2010 at 1:51 am

    Month hasn’t ended yet.

w0rkt3rm1n4l | July 30, 2010 at 1:26 pm

i upgraded to 1.0 and after the reboot all I get is “oops, we’re done for today.” >>> Please upgrade my account ! thx

stinkupuss | July 30, 2010 at 1:51 pm

End of the month + no 1.0 invite = hurry up already!

Gary | July 30, 2010 at 4:43 pm

1.0 is more of a dog, it slows down my computer, kind of like windows. Plus interface is hard to understand.

I like 0.9, is there a way to roll back to the good days?

    Zak Kaufman | July 31, 2010 at 1:51 am

    Sorry, 0.9 is depreciated.

jeff mitch | July 30, 2010 at 9:13 pm

fantastic job you guys (threw me for a while, trying to find comp’ pref’s, until i found the keyboard shortcuts on the firefox start page :)
once more….. a BIG thank you, to all concerned
jeff

Luke | July 30, 2010 at 9:38 pm

Just got the update to 1.0 so some first impressions.
- New launcher is nice, but like others have said, would like to add my own apps and links to this
- Would be good to have a shortcut link to terminal, e.g. on the main bar at the top of the launcher
- I feel like you should be able to flip between launcher screens by clicking and dragging the grey area across (like you do on a ipod/iphone)

Good work on this release overall though! I’m looking forward to 1.1 with a bit more customisability

    aram | July 31, 2010 at 1:41 am

    Wow thats a nice idea. I truly agree with you
    To quickly access terminal you can add application launcher applet on your panel and then select accessories - terminal. Just like quicklaunch on Windo*s OS

    Zak Kaufman | July 31, 2010 at 1:53 am

    1. Adding web apps is under consideration, unsupported apps from the terminal or Synaptic will not be supported.

    2. Try Alt + F1

    3. Good idea for touch devices, maybe in the future.

Nick | July 30, 2010 at 10:33 pm

I’ve spent the last hour playing with the new interface and have to say I’m very disappointed. Hopefully this is just because I haven’t worked out how to use it!
- can’t find a way to add a local app (eg terminal) to the main panel
- can’t find a way to categorize the main panel to make it look more like 0.9
- cant find a way to navigate to system preferences without many key presses
- dont have a menu key on my dell e4200 so no idea what is on the menu revealed from this button
- cant find a way to have my own background
- basically, I can’t see how to make any customisations except by adding or removing programs from the single main screen

I really hope I’ve got the wrong end of the stick since Jolicloud seemed the best netbook interface I had seen to date.

    Zak Kaufman | July 31, 2010 at 1:56 am

    1. Try Alt + F1
    2. Of course, it’s a new interface. but you can organize apps however you want to.
    3. All preferences are in the settings tab of the launcher. It was the same in 0.9 with the Preferences section.
    4. It’s the old Gnome menu.
    5. Not possible yet, under consideration.
    6. Answered in #2

      Gary | July 31, 2010 at 2:45 pm

      Zak, I do love Jolicloud but am struggling with 1.0

      2. Of course, it’s a new interface. but you can organize apps however you want to.

      I can only move apps around, but its still a sea of apps spread across pages. 0.9 had them in categorized directories (it was nice)
      3. All preferences are in the settings tab of the launcher. It was the same in 0.9 with the Preferences section.

      To be honest I don’t know what the launcher is, nor can I find any settings tab anywhere.

Danny | July 30, 2010 at 10:57 pm

I love the look overall, but there is noticeable interface lag when opening folders and such. This was not an issue in the pre-final. Hopefully this is improved. Overall good work though.

Linux gets on my nerves | July 30, 2010 at 11:25 pm

Updating is a joke, too much lag.

Create an .iso torrent we all can download for 1.0. Why should any of us have to deal with the updating bullshit?

Next time consider making things finished within the release before releasing it. No background customization? No way to add an app not on the list to the main panel? These should be added ASAP!

    Zak Kaufman | July 31, 2010 at 1:54 am

    They’re being considered for the future. but as you said, there are things to fix first.

aram | July 31, 2010 at 1:32 am

Thanks for the upgrade. Loved the new interface already (albeit too restrictive, I think. Well, it runs atop browser afterall). It is nice that now I can rearrange the app menu as I want, saves me a lot of click than navigating through categories like in the old launcher.
One little question, is there any way to pause the update (or download) process?

And for you people who dont have the menu key on your keyboard, you can always add the “Main Menu” applet on your panel to access the old application menu. And to add old apps which is not shown on the launcher, you can add the “application launcher” applet on your panel. It might not look as beautiful as the one in the launcher, but its still quickly (and easily) accessible, right? :)

Thanks once again. Keep up the good work guys :)

    Zak Kaufman | July 31, 2010 at 1:57 am

    More options for updates and installations should be added in the future.

Michael N | July 31, 2010 at 3:02 am

Hey, I prefer the pre-final, is there an easy way to downgrade now?

    Zak Kaufman | July 31, 2010 at 4:52 am

    No, PreFinal will be depreciated.

      Michael N | July 31, 2010 at 11:18 pm

      I think you mean deprecated, but ok

    Bernard | August 1, 2010 at 4:51 pm

    Yes.Softpedia has a download for the 0.9 iso. Download and create an bootable usb using the jolicloud usb creator. You have to do a fresh install which is the disadvantage. But if you really want the PreFinal again, this is the only way to go.

Kris | July 31, 2010 at 10:16 am

I upgraded to 1.0 yesterday evening, not without troubles (My Jolicloud app started behaving weird, adding multiple jolicloud-deamon processes), but “advanced user” apt-get way worked.

I had some mixed feeling from the beginning (where the hell are the categories in the launcher etc.), but adding Gnome menu to panel and playing with new interface for an hour or so made it. Now I’m as happy with new version as I was with pre-final, especially since all the tweaks I did before (replacing gnome-power-manager with self-configured laptop-mode-tools, adding some additional keyboard shortcuts to fix the Fn problems etc.) work after upgrade as well.

I believe you still need to work hard on customization (launcher themes would be awesome) and configuration, since the distro should be OOTB positive experience (simple things, as 3s break in Grub instead of making user change it themselves, or adding fast switcher between app screens in launcher).

And still: add more apps! Especially in the sport and lifestyle areas. Especially, for me: add some runners portals (there is only one for now, and I’m actually using another one).

Still, Jolicloud is overwhelming already. It’s simple great. It works, it gives the nice feel, it looks cool. I’m looking so much forward to next upgrades. Just keep listening to the good ideas and stick to your vision, there will be no better netbook/tablet linux distro around. Good luck!

Peat | July 31, 2010 at 11:43 am

Just made the upgrade, and it is really nice. My only problem is that Transmission will no longer run and ther is no other torrent client in the apps list. Will transmission be available for 1.0 in the near future?

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:45 pm

    Actually it’s back in the app center already.

Borys | July 31, 2010 at 1:09 pm

I am very sorry to say this, but while Jolicloud Pre-Final was the most elegant OS I’ve ever put my hands on, the new 1.0 seems like an interface disaster. Pre-Final was in fact working very smoothly, and from 1.0 I expected only that Keyboard Shortcuts will be fixed. Well, they are not fixed, and all I’ve got now is a very clumsy multi-page dashboard with gigantic icons (come on, this is netbook, they should be small and neat!) and with very limited customizability (your average user is not 5 years old, really…). Accessing local apps and local folders is pain as well (compared with Pre-Final).

Jolicloud is free, so I appreciate the developers’ effort and I thank you for it (no irony here), but I really cannot understand what justified this new approach. I am off to UNR. Best of luck. Hope in Jolicloud 2.0 you will take a step “back” to Pre-Final look-and-feel.

    Gary | July 31, 2010 at 4:24 pm

    Well said.

    Jo.S. | August 1, 2010 at 9:01 pm

    Agreed.
    0.9 interface was more usable…

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:46 pm

    The old interface was from Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.04, and even they don’t use it anymore. It will not be brought back.

woodstock1993 | July 31, 2010 at 2:02 pm

Goodbye jolicloud …

the pre-final was fine, I liked to work with that distro.

But 1.0 ….

horrible, can’t find words

Mack Styron | July 31, 2010 at 3:40 pm

Ok one question I used beta for several weeks on a toshiiba netbook. Everything worked great sound unlike UNR, then out of no where it crashed. I reinstalled, crashed again. Finally had enough went back to Ubuntu, can anyone assure me that the final version might actually work? Sound doesn’t work under UNR, of course with only one speaker who cares about sound but still it’s nice to know you have it if you want it.

Thanks

Oh please reply email I am terrible about checking these boards.

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:47 pm

    Sorry I don’t have your email address. But it’s worth a try.

DJazzy | July 31, 2010 at 5:42 pm

I upgraded to Jolicloud 1.0 yesterday.
I love it, it’s very nice. But, it’s buggy sometimes, icons gray out, can’t press menu buttons… Seems like it’s “offline” but it’s not.

Anyhow, i love HTML5, and I have made it possible to change the launcher’s background to an image or color. I made this as an Chrome/Chromium Extension. Here’s a screenshot: http://i32.tinypic.com/c5o47.png
It just loads a custom CSS, very simple.

Sometimes the UI is slow when running many applications, uses almost 50% RAM, boots up in 40 sec (press on-button until icons shows up) on Acer Aspire One A110 (512Mb Ram yeah..)

Also, when clicking You on the Stream page.. I would like it to show my “profile”, not just the items i liked. Nothing big, heh.

I will improve the extension, making background customizable, and maybe add more options.

DJazzy

    aram | August 1, 2010 at 2:00 am

    have you uploaded the extension? I opened chrome://extensions/ and then search for Jolicloud 1.0 Plugin, nothing found.. Seriously, your launcher looks awesome dude

      DJazzy | August 1, 2010 at 6:33 am

      i havent uploaded it “officially” yet, I must finish it and show it to the devs first.
      I have made an options page for it now too… Just need some CSS broadcast to make it dynamic :)

    Kris | August 1, 2010 at 3:43 pm

    Wow, that looks awesome! I’m looking so much forward to seeing devs add that plugin as the upgrade!

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:50 pm

    Interesting. I’ll show it to the devs.

tigran | July 31, 2010 at 5:46 pm

GOOOOOOoooooooooooooDDD OS but i dont know can I run dis OS on my netbook if I havnt internet connectino…?????

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:50 pm

    Yes, read the previous blog post.

Anthony thomas | July 31, 2010 at 7:11 pm

The pre was so much easier to use than 1.0. This is not intuitive at all. The placement of everything is now so messy. Before, no menu button was needed, all the choices were on the desktop immediately. Go back to how it was! Will continue trying it, but may well say goodbye.

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:51 pm

    The old GUI is no longer used even in Ubuntu. It will not be brought back.

Imre Toth | July 31, 2010 at 8:56 pm

Hy! The 1.0 Jolicloud like for me, but the boot time is horror!
Pre 30 sec
1.0 130 sec!!!!
(Dell Mini 1012)

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:51 pm

    This will be improved over time, of course.

Imre Toth | July 31, 2010 at 9:06 pm

Sorry I wrote false number.
The boot time:
Pre 30 sec
1.0 60-70 sec.
Other problem: I switch my Mini to sleep mode, but after 1-2 minute I cannot switch ON the computer.
I like the 1.0, because this OS can use vga card (GMA500) of my Dell Mini.

Gary | July 31, 2010 at 9:36 pm

Maybe helpful

I went to the far left top
right clicked (you need to be at the right spot) till I got a “ADD TO PANEL” and selected it.

A window pops up.
I scrolled down and picked “MAIN MENU” and “MENU BAR”

And now I have access to apps, places, and system like in 0.9. only in a drop down in the upper left side, its not too bad.

aram | August 1, 2010 at 1:57 am

I think the openoffice impress app is broken because when I open it, it opens the writer (word processor). Removed it and install again several times, still the same..

littlewilly | August 1, 2010 at 4:18 am

Well done team. best ever.

Victor | August 1, 2010 at 4:46 am

Hello there. I have a bit of a problem here. I’ve just upgraded to JC 1.0 and nothing seems to work properly. I didn’t wait on the email like I was supposed to, I guess… My bad. Anyway, what happened was that while reading the upgrade guide I stumbled upon an “advanced” way to upgrade, via terminal. So I did it, hassle-free. But after I rebooted, I was propted to login to my account, then redirected to a page in JC’s website that said something about a shortage of upgrades for the day. Now I can’t get my netbook to work anymore, because of that. I’ve found my own ways, like Alt+F2 to run programs, but that’s it. I want my JC back! Can anyone help me???

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:52 pm

    Tell me if you’re still having this issue, as everyone should be upgraded now.

Uli Starke | August 1, 2010 at 12:12 pm

The upgrade process is confuseing!
After upgrade I am once more forced to upgrade ( by the orange sign). But than nothing happens ! That “second upgrade” is hanging.
Whats that ?

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:52 pm

    Everyone should be upgraded now. Tell me if you still have this issue.

Jean | August 1, 2010 at 7:38 pm

I like it, no problem with the upgrade.

I’m missing google chrome because chromium has some bugs !
Google chrome dissapeared with the upgrade.

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:53 pm

    Actually they use the same profile, so any bugs that Chromium has would probably be present in Chrome as well.

Jo.S. | August 1, 2010 at 8:56 pm

Hello.
After updaing to Jolicloud 1.0, i got some problems with locale in file manager: all cyrillic chars in filenames and file contents now displayed as “?”.
How can i fix this problem, if it can be fixed?

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:53 pm

    Try reloading the launcher with F5.

Victor | August 2, 2010 at 12:45 am

So thanks to the good guys at Support, I got the JC 1.0 up and running. And I must say I love it! I’d like to have more options to personalize the menus, but that’s it. Everything simply works. Six months ago I was a W7 user, then Ubuntu then JC. And there’s no coming back. I’m carrying around my Live USB pendrive to spread the word. Thanks JC!

James | August 2, 2010 at 1:30 am

I have Jolicloud set up on 16GB USB drive, but I want to know if there is away to save the settings or the changes I made before shutdown.

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:54 pm

    Sorry, right now USB installations aren’t supported. Although it may be possible.

Andrew Trimble | August 2, 2010 at 11:54 am

Hum, loved the pre-release, still not 100% sure of 1.0, but that may be the way I’m using it.

Having installed a few apps from the app directory (eg openoffice calc and evernote) I now find that I can’t get them to run- the apps appear greyed out in the window. My copy of songbird installed pre upgrade is the same, whereas facebook and openoffice word (also pre update) work fine.

Jolicloud has prompted me to sync apps a few times, which I have done, always to no avail.

Will I have to sync every time I want to use these programs? (indeed, will I ever get to use them?!)

I love the OS generally, but this upgrade is proving a little disheartening.

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:55 pm

    Should be fixed with new updates.

TPJ | August 2, 2010 at 4:06 pm

I hate it! Goodbye Jolicloud …

Imre Toth | August 2, 2010 at 4:52 pm

JC 1.0: I like it, I use it, but - go back to pre-final design!

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:55 pm

    Sorry, that GUI is very old.

Pointless | August 2, 2010 at 7:54 pm

I don’t like the new Jolicloud 1.0.
My lenovo s10 fan kept running at full blast
the whole time that I was using it, which never
happens in Windows 7 Ultimate which I predominantly
use.

Some of the features seem rather pointless as well.
Such as the activity stream features. Nobody
cares what programs I’ve installed or am using.
Why is this even a feature?

Overall I feel the previous version worked a
lot better, IMO.

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:56 pm

    Actually this is very useful for new users looking to install apps that their friends like. You just need to know other people using Jolicloud.

odlok | August 3, 2010 at 7:59 am

Please please please let us go back to the prebeta design!. It run much better than this. My asus 1201ha is running much more slowly and I really want to have my regular desktop back.

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:56 pm

    That GUI is very old and will not be brought back. Not even Ubuntu uses it anymore.

tyrowell | August 3, 2010 at 8:32 pm

Is there a way to re-order the quick launch icons so I can have the ones I use more on the first page?

    Zak Kaufman | August 3, 2010 at 11:56 pm

    Just drag and drop the icons wherever you want them to be.

      Pablo | August 4, 2010 at 5:56 am

      Didnt see that before my post, that makes life easier thanks :)

Pablo | August 4, 2010 at 5:54 am

I think this would be great for users who want an easy set up and everything done for them. I like it and may continue to use it but not as my main OS. I may revert back to Ubuntu Remix as it is very similar to the release before the upgrade. Im not to happy with the 1.0 release because I liked the added apps I had installed and also the fact I could customize my own fave folder were now I have to scroll through 5 pages to get to Mozilla lol. Never mind eh, thanks for your efforts Im sure alot of people will love the ease of this OS.

    Zak Kaufman | August 5, 2010 at 6:02 am

    Sorry, but as you know, external apps are not supported.

Laura | August 4, 2010 at 10:44 am

I’ve just upgraded to 1.0 on my Eee PC 701 - it’s really unstable - the main interface keeps crashing entirely, needing a reboot. This has happened about 3 times in the 4 or so hours I’ve used the new system for. Also, it’s refusing to install new apps - it keeps syncing them, but they never become usable. Am I the only one having this problem?

Also, the way the apps are arranged now is kinda odd - some on one page (that isn’t full), and some on the other. Can this be customisable in the near future please?

Otherwise, the new OS looks promising, even if it has eaten nearly all of my hard drive! I’m planning on doing a clean install when the 1.0 installer comes out, in the hope I’ll have more than 300 MB left.

    Zak Kaufman | August 5, 2010 at 6:08 am

    There are also some great workarounds in GetSatisfaction for this issue. It’s pretty rare now.

Shadedsuperman | August 4, 2010 at 4:15 pm

Loved the previous releases of Jolicloud. However, I am running an acer aspire one D250 and have zero sound. The little drum cadence sounds on start up. After I log in the master volume is set to mute. I turn off mute, max the volume and nothing. Right now this is the only thing that really bothers me. And the drab new home screen. Other than that the functionality seems to spot on.

    Zak Kaufman | August 5, 2010 at 6:05 am

    There are some great workarounds for sound in GetSatisfaction!

I just installed jolicloud on my hp mini but now the sound isn’t working. what should i do?

    Zak Kaufman | August 5, 2010 at 6:07 am

    You should check GetSatisfaction for workarounds.

ShakaZulu | August 5, 2010 at 6:33 am

Shift+Esc brings up the task manager. Once you log out of Jolicloud (which is just the my.jolicloud.com web page) you can end most of the processes using the task manager, except of course chromium, which is just a web browser.
Pressing Ctrl+N will open a new tab with an address bar and you can surf the web all you want.

It IS interesting how they get a web page to interact with the hardware, like the file explorer.

Tom | August 5, 2010 at 2:21 pm

I never used Joilicloud before 1.0 so I won’t be one of the ones whining about the changes. I think it looks great, and despite what you’ve said before I got it working just fine on my work desktop.

Love it, keep up the good work

Metash | August 5, 2010 at 5:57 pm

My SD or any other SD doesn´t appear anywhere.
I formatted in NTFS, FAT, FAT 32 and nothing happened.
In the pre-final and previous versions I didn´t have that problem, and now I feel stuck and sad.
Maybe you can give me some tips.

Thanks!

mick | August 6, 2010 at 3:02 am

Just heard about Jolicloud, got excited, installing it ….. but … got stuck at the “Okay, I’m online!”

I am behind a corporate firewall, We dont have transparent proxies, what are my options?

Alex | August 6, 2010 at 5:46 am

I really liked the pre-release interface, but this version is… underwhelming. It is bland and boring, unintuitive, difficult to navigate, and near impossible to configure. Can’t you allow for a way to use the old interface? It was MUCH better.

Mel | August 7, 2010 at 2:55 am

Extremely disappointed with 1.0: if I wanted an interface that looked like an iPhone or an iPad, I would have bought one of those. Why can’t we have the interface of 0.9? Far more intuitive. As soon as I find a different distro that works on my netbook, I’m gone.

Anton | August 8, 2010 at 8:36 am

Congratulations.

I really like 1.0 interface, i do. Since 0.9 looked more like standard gnome menu with some features and drop of gloss, new one is far more convenient. But there are some features i would suggest for future releases:
1) If jolicloud was made for netbooks it would be good to show detailed internet connection activity - right now i’m using very expensive internet connection so i want to know how many information is transferred through wi-fi or so. You can do some pretty tables and buttons to satisfy those needs, im sure ;)

2) Despite all changes in interface, there are still some residual artefacts of standard Gnome, and the worst is Nautilus. Damn, i cant work with that piece of crap on my Samsung n110, especially using touchpad - it’s some kind of torture working with large lists of files and those wicked menus.

Nautilus in current Jolicloud looks like extremely hairy legs dressed in mini-skirt.

3) Also, i appreciate that you following “netbook” concept so estimately 70% of applications offered to install are web-based. But, c’mon, i’m sure there are lots of simple games available for linux platform that dont need persistent internet connection. Of course netbooks were made for surfing, but they are still laptops, with processors, memory and graphic processors(even integrated, who cares) so it would be better to use it on it’s best and to find compromise between web applications and native.

4) MORE INTEGRATION. With web applications i mean. It looks odd when i open, for example, Meebo and some links in it are opened in new appearing chrome window - u better keep application in one place. And in month or so i think it’s time to offer some services more integration with jolicloud, fortunately it’s no more some kind of “geek project” =)

I have “foundating member” badge that will always keep me close to jolicloud(it’s my only OS on laptop), so good luck to you =)

Does anyone know how to hack the non-functioning Keyboard shortcuts ? I have a Dell mini and want to use the old style menu instead of the iPad interface desperately. My Dell Mini does not have the windows era menu button.

It seems very Ironic that I need a windows key to switch out of an iPad emulator into a Linux menu, LOL.

Love Jolicloud. Thanks for the great work on it. I would like to be able to customize the Launchpad with my own apps. In this respect, I enjoyed the pre-release better. I hope you’ll fix this with the next update.

Thanks

Hi, JoliCloud is great. Please reconsider giving us the option to switch back to the old interface. The new interface is only useful using tablets or touchscreen PCs. I think you are going to see alot of previously happy Jolicloud users switch away. You’ve worked so hard on JoliCloud and put in too much effort for that to happen. Thank you.

Hi!

I have 2 dell mini 10 (for my kids to use)

I just installed a fresh JC on one, still getting used to the interface. I just can’t figure out how to change the interface’s language! I selected spanish language during install, but the interface is in english. The apps are in spanish though…

On the other, I had 0.9. I did the update, but I still have the 0.9 interface…

Any help will be appreciated.

I have a netbook that wasn’t listed on the list of supported netbooks, but it works flawlessly. How do I report on that?

alt+f1 for terminal?….. Why not Ctrl+Alt+T?

(EE) NVIDIA(0) ***Aborting***
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a useable configuration.

I need help on resolving. Please!!!

I love JC_OS; it was really simple to install and use for me . . . but

But when I was jollier I read this: ((sorry by Google Traslate))

“” . . . Since it is already open to the public, it’s time to see how things have been done. We will create us an account, and launch the Live CD to test. In addition, we will monitor the traffic it generates.

The first thing we asked when it finishes booting Jolicloud is that we connect to the Internet to log on to the computer. Once you log prepared and see what and how data sent to the server:

The user name and password are sent in an HTTP POST request clear. “SSL?” Why?

After our credentials have traveled readable by world, we are within our computer, our applications locally, and plenty of shortcuts to online services (Dropbox, Gmail, Facebook, Twitter …). We will download our first application, it will be VLC:

The request is again clear, indicating the application and the action to take. . . . “”

In my Asus1201ha equipped with processor Z520, 1280×720 mkv movies run slow. Probe with mplayer without success. Please help, Jolicloud is fantastic.

New version looks great and is fast …. but ….

Help..

whilst updating I have lost the orange update icon! How can I re-instate it on the menu bar?

Just tried out Jolicloud 1.0 with my emachines emd350 and I say it rocks!, but sadly the battery life is meager , does the update/install run behind a proxy?

James | September 3, 2010 at 10:30 am

I find the stream a waste of space IMO.
I don’t want to follow another of people I don’t know to see what apps they’ve got.
