Unified Lanshop Owners Portal

this os is also good for people having trouble installing ylmf os due to cmos clock, bad sectors on the Hard drive and downloading YLMF OS due to heavy traffic. The difference is YLMF OS is more like windows while GoS is much like MAC OS (talking about learning curve point of view). Here are some procedures tweaked for Internet cafe shops and for people that wants torrent downloads.

Download GoS 3.1
www.thinkgos.com/gos/download.html

burn ito to a cd using infrarecorder using the lowest speed.

infrarecorder.org/?page_id=5

1. Enable bios to boot at CD/DVD
2. In the splash screen when "try Gos without any change to your computer" just press Enter in your keyboard and select english as language, as it boots and goes to GUI screen you can test your hardware.
3. Installing GOS to your Hard drive ----- click install icon on the desktop (the green one below Gos Home)
4. during installation just follow instruction. (i used erase the entire disk)
5. when installation finished reboot your pc and enter your username and password.

Tweaking:

Unlike YLMF OS there is no start button but the GoS button on the upper left side

1. click Gos> system preferences> administration> login window then click the security tab and click enable automatic login and click your username that you have created

2. click Gos> system preferences> administration> software sources. then click updates check all under ubuntu updates.

3. GOS> system preferences> administration> update manager then click check then install

4. GOS> Add remove... On the show options click all Open source Application

install the following:

Accessories

Gedit (if its already installed go to graphics menu)

then click apply after you check all what application you want to install.

5. installing other application

b. Gos> accessories> terminal

type or copy paste

sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf

then edit smb.conf and find:

; name resolve order = lmhosts host wins bcast

change to

delete ";" at the beginning of the line

7. Gos> system preferences> hardware drivers check if you are using nvida or ati video card and used the appropriate driver.

8. reboot

sir tanong ko lang. anu-anong webcam yung compatible dito? pwede kaya yung mga cdr-king?

salamat po ulit sa guide na ito! yung ibang installations ko kasi ng ylmf nagloloko yung pag-boot. black screen lang na parang dos.
