DB, To install the agrsm-tools.deb on another PC, you can either copy into the /home/SomeUser folder thereon and install as before. Or just specify the PATH to the mounted USB stick like: $ sudo dpkg -i /media/USBsomething/agrsm-tools.deb and the install will go. As mentioned before, we do not yet have a success with the 11c1:048c chipset Demo is working on a comparable USB 047e:2892 chipset which in principle is also supported by the agrsm software.

After each of these attempts, I got an error message: "Error 15: file not found" that offered me a choice of OS to boot into. Each time I selected the "without acpi" option. Then it would return me to the black screen with instruction to "Press any key to continue". I waited many minutes each time but the system never seemed to boot, so I had to use the recovery mode option to boot successfully and then turn off the machine. > > Are there any possibilities left?
