At first - sorry if i'll make some mistakes - i'm bad at english

The main problem is - the pc won't boot from the livecd with "Asus"
x86 assebly of android. The "generic" assembly works a bit laggy, and
don't wanna to see my wi-fi card. What can i do?
P.S. The Asus version boots normally till the "android" logo. At
normal it must be, but it won't and the booting of the system
stopping. Debug mode shows nothing - The message "type exit to boot
android" and that's all.

P.P.S. In the generic version screen resolution is a bit smaller, than
i have (not 1366x768, but it's not critical).

And another question: How can i root this thing up? I want to use it
as the second OS.
And: Android eats my battery for about an hour (or less, but i think
hour is maximum) - how to make him a little bit less power-eating?
Sorry 4 many questions.

I checked the spec of K50ID.
It uses nvidia graphic chip,
not Intel integrated chip.
So it is not supported by the
asus_laptop iso.

Currently you can only use generic iso
with vesa mode. You may change resolution
by changing vga=xxx.
(use vga=ask to see available choices)

As you know the K50ID uses 2 videocards: the integrated Intel chip
(that uses CPU) and the Nvidia chip. But thanx 4 the answer.

Friends recommend me to install x86 android above the ubuntu kernel, i
think this idea will work better

Ok, if is has Intel's chip,
you can also try the eeepc iso
which uses the i915c driver.

Android won't work on a normal kernel
without android specific patches.
