hm.
6.1 has additional button slots (the one I use)
so yeah ...
but I as well could not see a defining "command button" to the mix on mine either.
I think adding the desired "function" to the directory in question as auouymous mentions would auto put said "function" into the pool of functions to "add" "remove" or change the layout.

We'll have to wait until auouymous weighs in.

But the scripts work in root, so we're very close to figuring out Window 8.1 shared folders to help the poor souls like myself that are stuck with that dreadful OS.

Also, I reworked said script and it executes well in Ubuntu 8.04, so I don't have to ftp there, either

My fault!

You do not need to install CSSU as ASUI 0.6.0+ works without it and rotation is the only feature you lose. CSSU will however fix bugs with the OS and core apps, so something you might want to install anyway. Your choice though.

I release test builds and after some time I would push release builds to the repository. Problem is that I left a bunch of test features unreleased when I stopped working on ASUI.

Run this as root:
Code:
asui uu ; asui dit ; asui dis ; asui da ; asui dc
This upgrades the 'asui' testing script and downloads/installs latest test version of ASUI, ASUI settings, statusbar applet and themes. I've been using these daily since mid-2012, they have no issues for me.

Take a look at http://asui.garage.maemo.org/about.html#testing for more info on this 'asui' script and what it can do.

I tend to avoid test-build- anything until I here it's stable enough for daily use without killing me or eating my cat and dog.

auouymous you bugger!
If I'd known it was working smooth for you I'da been using it for the last few years...
Hm..

WOO-HOO!

Something new! ...well new for me anyway.

Ok now I gotta go do that.

If it works half as well as you say auouymous... I'll be definitely including it in the couple complete one-stop-shop-walkthroughs I have posted so everyone does it too.

BIG thanks auouymous

I immediately fix bugs in my code as I find them. The only known bugs in release or testing builds are documented at http://asui.garage.maemo.org/todo.html with red and yellow text, and I think all of those are in the release build.

Success, and thank you both for your patience and unstinting help. You've solved a thorny, if not arcane, dilemma: Public folder sharing is now available between Windows 8.1 and Nokia N8**

BACKGROUND: In older Samba setups and despite the absence of password for Windows 8.1 Public folder, samba still thinks a password is necessary. Any kind of password demand will prevent File Manager from accessing a "shared folder" This workaround utilizes the cifs command and lets N8** users exchange files with a password-less Windows 8.1 Public folder. [A shared folder in Windows XP, for example, does not have this samba problem]

For the future frustrated, here are the vitals of the set-up:

Install the magical ASUI from http://asui.garage.maemo.org/download.html

For screen rotatation and latest bug solutions, make certain the Diablo Community SSU repo is installed

After ASUI installation, run this command in root:

asui uu ; asui dit ; asui dis ; asui da ; asui dc

Along with many ASUI upgrades and fixes, this command will install the Command Buttons option in the ASUI's GTK menu and allow users to put a Share Mount and Share Unmount button in ASUI

The cifs.ko is needed to access the shares in File Manager. If you're running Diablo Turbo, the cifs.ko is available here:

https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_id=2036

***The "Last DT test kernel" must be installed for this cifs.ko to load properly***

In root, copy the cifs.ko into /lib/modules/2.6.21-omap1/extra/

In rooted terminal or rooted Midnight Commander, create a new directory: /root/bin

In /root/bin, create two files: win8.sh and umount.sh

/root/bin/win8.sh:

#!/bin/sh
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.21-omap1/extra/cifs.ko
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.2/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.3/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.4/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.5/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.6/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.7/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.8/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.9/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.10/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.11/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.12/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.13/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit
mount -t cifs //10.0.0.14/Documents /media/mmc2/mnt -o noperm,sec=none,uid=user,guest && exit

This script is tailored for U.S. Comcast Xfinity router--Comcast uses a shifting dynamic address, so the script has to try and load the directory from a series of educated guesses. If your dynamic address is steady, day after day, or better, you have a static address, then obviously you only need one command that uses Windows 8.1's correct IP

With this script, the Windows shared folder will mount on your removable sd card in the directory /media/mmc1/mnt


Second file: /root/bin/umount.sh:

#!/bin/sh
umount /media/mmc2/mnt
rmmod cifs

This will safely unmount the mnt directory, preventing possible long reboot/shutdown problems

After files are created, in root, chmod both:

chmod 700 /root/bin/win8.sh
chmod 700 /root/bin/umount.sh

Test these scripts in root before making them buttons in ASUI

In ASUI, go to Settings/Command Buttons. When inserting the scripts, make certain "run as root" is ticked

Depending on the script's exploration of Windows 8.1's IP address, /media/mmc2/mnt may take a while to find the Public folder. Each IP address attempt takes about a second

Thanks again to all who helped me figure this out,
Jake
