Bios Update Samsung N150

Preview
The samsung N150 sleek netbook, which I brought last month,has a sleek black finish,screen is matte,quite trendy to look at. I purchased one with Windows 7 starter edition preinstalled,because I was afraid I might not get drivers.
Windows 7 starter is a crippleware, you can not change the desktop wall paper, seems to run much slower, and so much samsung company bloatware. Also preinstalled Norton antivirus trial reminding you that you got only 59 days to go before your netbook will be devoured by virus scum!

Installing Mint Linux 10 Julia
I decided to Install Linux Mint 10 julia, on the Netbook and got hold of Iso image.
I brought Linux For You India january edition containg Mint Linux, Which I installed on my Desktop, I really love Mint Linux 10. From my Mint Desktop,I created a live usb using create Start up Disk Creator Usb tool in Admin tools section.I guess it can be done in Live CD also.

Changing BIOS in Samsung Np150 Netbook
To enter BIOS F2 needs to be pressed, this is important as rapid boot is enabled by default and this screen scrolls off fast. F4 is for recovery in this device. I had to chage bios to boot order and choose USB hard disk option in BOOT Menu of Netbook BIOS.

I created free space in last pertition using Windows partition tool,Windows Desktop,

My Computer,Management,Disk & Partitions.

Same could have been done with Linux Live USB, Adminstration choose Gparted.

Warning : Avoid Resizing or moving Windows 7's Partition,I guess this can lead to loss of Genuine windows 7 validation,which happens at the drop of a hat.

Chose Ext4 file system, Mint Linux needs at least few GB space, I allcated 15GBs for Mint.
Mint Linux 10 installed into Netbook without any hitch. I installed Mint 10 into last partition and set up GRUB there.
I was afraid that setting up GRUB into MBR would lead to loss of Genuine windows 7 validation,heard it happened to somebody.
This Microsoft Issue troubles Genuine Windows software users[like me] more than pirated ones.Which would be a big loss for me,as I paid 2000 rupees for win 7 starter.
To give you a idea how expensive is Windows 7 starter in India, this would amount to half month pay as General intern or quater of my months pay as ENT resident.

EASY BCD - A SUPERB TOOL TO DUAL BOOT LINUX
I used EasyBCD to create a boot entry in my Windows 7 start up menu. EasyBCD is a superb freeware from Neosmart Technology can be found free download at
http://neosmart.net
It automatically creates a entry for grub inside win7 menu Neosmart Grub linux.This saves the MBR corruption and genuine validation issue.
I chose Linux from win 7 boot up menu and lo Mint booted up like a MAGIC! No windows 7 tampering, No MBR tampering, No validation worry, LINUX MINT Rocks!
My Netbook function keys got working immediately. But Brightness and Wifi key were not working. I looked into Google Wiki for My Netbook and found this useless dangerous link
Here Garbage link:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Samsung_N150
Much of this is gibbrish. Do NOT use the shell script without clear understanding. I am a imtermediate tweaker and programmer,but I don 't understand it fully. I ended up corrupting keyboard input. I could not log on into linux. End I had to reformat and reinstall Mint Linux.

Connect to Internet
Just switch on bluetooth on any GPRS enabled phone and click bluetooth icon choose add device, add the phone, use phone Dial Up Network to connect to internet,answer few simple questions,[India and Indian GPRS cell phone operators were listed![ Mint will automatically create GPRS mobile internet for U! Works like a charm!

Adding Samsung Packages
You need to add Voria ppa repository in your Mint Linux package manager. Goto to synaptic package manager,
Settings From Menu,Repository,Other Software, Add Choose package, sources, add repository.
Type in this command
ppa:voria
or use following command in terminal Connect laptop to internet
Sudo add-apt-repository ppa:voria/ppa
Enter password.
Search for Samsung Install Samsung wireless, Samsung tools, Samsung gui.
Goto Additional drivers in Administration sction,for 3rd party driver, and choose Search Install two drivers Samsung backlit driver Broadcomm wireless driver
Mine is broadcomm, Realtek and Atheros cards are others on board N150. Restart.
Function keys will start working and Ur Linux Mint is ready to go!!!

Possible Problems
1.Installing voria repository made Native Mint software install program unstable and unusable. Synaptic works fine though. Remove voria repository from synaptic once all drivers are installed fixes this problem.
2. USB Mouse starts freezing. You have to click start its light. THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM, I have no solution. Disconnect and reconnect the usb again and again is only solution.
Others have posted same issue, without any solution.
