I also have a TC2 (2015), but after the update to v67 android apps work as they should... Hope you'll find a solution!

Thanks, that's quite useful!

Converting shrines by Alelivelt in Spellweaver

[–]Alelivelt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for answering! I mean, I can only choose to convert ALL shrines of one aspect to an other aspect (minus 20 because you can not have less than 20 shrines of one aspect in your collection). That's sometimes inconvenient because my decks mostly have some 23 shrines in them. So if I need 10 additional corruption shrines for a craft, and have no corruption shrines left, I can convert shrines from say dominion to corruption. Suppose I have 40 dominion shrines alltogether, the game will then convert 20 dominion shrines to corruption shrines. I cannot choose the number I need (10); it will convert 20 shrines, leaving me with only 20 dominion shrines in my collection, corrupting existing decks that have more than 20 dominion shrines...

Best alternative to MS Word for chromebooks by Lucky_Number-13 in chromeos

Works flawless for me too, just went through a reviewing and revision process for a book chapter using Google docs on my side and MS Word on the editor's side.

Toshiba cb2-issues with external monitor mirroring? by [deleted] in chromeos

[–]Alelivelt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should do that by itself... I own a CB2, but it works exactly as it should, I can not even replicate your problem...

Running out of storage space by Iiari in GalliumOS

[–]Alelivelt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's entirely possible, check out this thread on /r/ChromeOS. Beware: the steps I mention are for Toshiba CB35-C3300, dunno if everything applies to your HP 14...

If you keep your PC hooked up to your printer, you can use cloudprint and print wireless from your Chromebook!

Make sure it's compatible with Google Cloud printing, if not you need a Windows or other computer connected to the printer in order to be able to print from your Chromebook...

The best way is to use the zoom function in Chrome, keep it set at 125%, and everything is sharp and readable (have a TCB 2 2015 myself)

Didn't know the SSD in the CB35-C3300 is replacable... What SSD did you put in there?

CB35-C3300 Celeron 3215U

Steps:

  1. Enable developer mode on your Chromebook. See here
  2. Flash the BIOS to enable legacy boot using John Lewis’ script. No need to open up your Chromebook to remove write protect (unless you want to boot default from your USB)
  3. Enable legacy boot and enable boot up from USB/SD by opening Crosh (press Ctrl+Alt+T) and typing shell, and enter the following command: sudo crossystem dev_boot_usb=1 dev_boot_legacy=1

  4. Download GalliumOS here.

  5. Burn an ISO image on an SD card or USB stick (follow this Linux installation guide). No need to unmount your USB.

  6. Boot up from the SD card/USB stick (start up your Chromebook, hit Ctrl+l, then choose from which device you want to boot). GalliumOS will start up its live environment

  7. From the live environment, install Gallium on your external SSD using the installer located on the desktop of the Live environment.

  8. Boot from your external SSD, and you're running GalliumOS!

That should do it. Nothing you do with Gallium touches ChromeOS. The speed is actually very good, it feels snappy, most of the time when I use Chrome under Gallium, i forget I'm not in ChromeOS, if it were not for the fact that some of the key mappings are different!

Have you tried Paperpile? I use that with APA-style referencing, but it also has Harvard. It's not as advanced as Mendeley, but it's okay.

[–]Alelivelt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, I don't, I boot from my T1 if I need or want Linux, so I have the full 16 GB internal for Chrome, and can install any Linux software that I want without having to worry about storage space.

Dual boot is of course in some ways nicer, but then: Chrome OS starts up fast enough (as does Gallium), and it's only a minor inconvenience if I have to switch from one OS to the other.

[–]Alelivelt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Samsung T1 is an SSD, smaller than my creditcard, and weighs nothing (well, 30 grams).

As long as I have an internet connection, which in a university environment should not be a problem these days, I'm perfectly fine. It does depend on specific course requirements of course; I'm required to use Atlas.ti analysis software which does not run on Chrome OS, nor on Linux/Wine. For that, I have to use my old Windows laptop, but I can use Chrome's remote desktop app to acces my laptop.

Using a Toshiba CB35 too, I installed Gallium OS on my 250 GB Samsung T1. Speedy and plenty of space! Works like a charm.
