My laptop, Asus N56v came pre installed with WIDI. When I tried it with the original version, software would go into a Loop always asking for security code and not recognizing any of my code replies.
I then updated Intel drivers after reading this blog and seeing others that had the security code loop.
When I rebooted and tried it, the code was accepted and was prompted to update firmware in the net gear ptv2000 adapter. I responded OK, and the drivers were updated. I then re booted (to be safe) and after the security code was accepted, the connection was successful, but only the Mouse pointer appears on an all black (blank) screen. screen is in extended mode and once pointer is move to edge onto TV laptop screen all get shoved off and I must reboot to get out. Mouse can be moved from screen to screen. I also tried id clone mode same problem with black screen.
Are there any Linux drivers available?
