Archcon 2010 talk summary now available

You can now review the summaries of ArchCon talks. Not all talks have been posted yet, but you can get an overview of some of the fun things you'll be able to see and discuss at ArchCon this year.
Because I was late getting these up, I've extended the earlybird registration deadline to this Friday (March 5). Review the talks, and if you like what you see, register now to save $50 on registration!
ArchCon is going to be a blast, hope to see you all there!
Dusty

It might also entice more people to the next ArchCon if they see what they're missing. (I suppose it could have the opposite effect too )
Of course, if someone could pull of live streaming with an interactive setup for Q&A, that would be even more impressive and appreciated.
Regardless of the videos, it looks like the whole thing is shaping up nicely. Well done and keep up the good work!

  • ArchCon 2010 Videos

    I was able to attend day one of ArchCon 2010 but was summoned home later in the evening preventing me from attending day two.  Spur of the moment I decided to see what my new(ish) HTC Incredible could do as far as video recording.  Here is the list disclaimers and caveats:
    *  It's a phone that did the recording.
    *  I am not a videographer and as you will see, I will never have the talent necessary to be one.
    *  Being that it is a phone, I had to prop it up using a Coke can.
    *  Sometimes I forgot to start recording until a few minutes into a presentation.
    *  You will need to turn the volume up considerably.
    *  I accidentally recorded Dan's talk in half resolution.
    *  Something happened with the file for Dieter's talk on AIF.  I nearly deleted it because VLC, SMPlayer, and MediaInfo all report there is no sound.  I found that avidemux plays the file back with sound, but I have not been able to find a way to convert or transcode the file so it will play back with common media players.
    *  These are hosted on my personal account w/ DreamHost.  They claim I have unlimited bandwidth, but we'll see.  If anybobdy want to, or thinks it is worth it, to mirror / torrent these, feel free.
    *  I asked Dusty about posting these and he said it would be fine.
    *  I did the best I could under the circumstances and with my limited experience with the video recording functionality of the phone.

    Only my talk and Dan's are available so far, I think the quality is about the same as DStein's, maybe a bit better audio but lesser video, from a different angle. Maybe someone would like to mix them. ;-)
    Remaining videos will be posted over the coming week or so. I am too tired to add more right now, I need a nap. Too many late nights and early mornings the last little while. ;-)

    We did have someone recording all but one of the talks with a real camera, We'll be posting them later in the week, but I make no promises about audio quality or anything like that. There will also be photos going up. Keep an eye on http://archlinux.ca/archcon2010/

    Hi everyone from the Build 2015 conference happening right now in San Francisco! If you haven’t already, check out Terry’s blog post about all the Windows 10 announcements we made today. If you’re at Build this week or at Ignite in Chicago next week – keep your eye out for me and say hello!
    Today we have a new build available to both the Fast and Slow ring for Windows Insiders (that means we’ll have ISOs available too for those of you who like a clean install.) With this build we continue to evolve the features and design for Windows 10, and you’ll see a lot of subtle changes and improvements, many of which were influenced directly by Windows Insiders. One of those changes is the reintroduction of some Aero Glass elements in the UI, but there are many more things throughout the product as well. We continue to use your feedback directly day to day in how our feature teams operate, and we hope that Windows 10 will be the best version of Windows yet because you had a direct hand in its creation.
    One other subtle change that you’ll notice is that we’ve changed how we talk about the builds from “Technical Preview” to “Insider Preview” to reflect the importance of the Windows Insider community in how we’re building Windows 10.
    And speaking of Windows Insiders, we were super excited to host the 10 winners of our Windows Insiders to Campus contest in Redmond last week and hear their thoughts on the program and the product. We’ll share more on that soon.
    Here is what’s newSome of the things that Joe demoed on stage earlier today during the Build keynote are not yet included in this build and will be in future builds. But we still have a bunch of new stuff for you to check out!
    General UX improvements: We made a bunch of UX improvements with the last build and you’ll see even more in this build. For example, you’ll notice a new Live Tile animation for Start in addition to in addition to some performance and stability improvements for Live Tiles.
    We’ve done work to better support high DPI displays. And we know many Windows Insiders are running multi-mon setups – often with 2 monitors with different DPI. You will start to see some work we’re doing to make sure core UX components in Windows scale correctly on both your monitors so things look nice regardless of DPI.
    We’ve also heard loud in clear that many Windows Insiders want to see Aero Glass from Windows 7 make a comeback. We’ve been working out how to satisfy this request, and are trying some things out with this build to see how you like them. We’re running a little A/B test with this build. 50% of you will normal transparency on the Start menu and taskbar while the other 50% will see a blur effect on the Start menu and taskbar (like frosted glass). If Windows Insiders really like the blur effect, we will add it to more areas and even consider making it the default instead of standard transparency. Which one did you get? Send us feedback about it via the Windows Feedback app!
    Even more improvements to Continuum: We’re continuing to make Continuum better and invest in a simplified taskbar. Additionally when you close an application in Tablet mode, we take you back to the Start screen instead of the desktop as you would expect when using a tablet. You will see general polish on snapping, and the shared divider between two snapped windows now let’s you adjust the size.
    Multi-tasking improvements: We’re continuing to refine and complete our mulit-tasking experience with Windows 10. Check out Alt-Tab, Task-View, and Snap Assist. Snap Assist also now supports the ability to close a window during Snap Assist.
    New default Windows sounds: We’ve heard a lot of feedback from people that they want some fresh system sounds for Windows 10. Check them out and let us know what you think.
    Visual refresh for Cortana: You will see a visual refresh for Cortana in this build that makes the experience feel more ingrained into the overall Windows experience. Start and Cortana are now more tightly integrated. As you start to search for an app from within Start, Cortana can seamlessly take over and bring back the right result. The new Windows split view control has been added to Cortana’s left rail, offering quick access to key Cortana functionality like the Notebook, Reminders or Feedback on how Cortana’s doing. This split view control helps anchor Cortana to the rest of the Windows UI and provides navigation consistent with many other Windows first party applications.
    New experiences in Cortana: We are making available some new and updated experiences in Cortana powered by Bing Instant Answers. Cortana will aim to answer your question while you’re still typing. Here are a few questions you can try:
    Weather – “Seattle Weather”
    Finance – “MSFT stock”
    Dictionary – “define astounding”
    Calculator – “48*92”
    Flight Status – “UA 238”
    Reference – “how tall is brad pitt”
    Showtimes – “movies near me”
    Tech Help – “memory in my computer”
    Time Zone – “time in London”
    Unit Conversion – “42 ft in meters”
    Chit Chat – “tell me a joke”
    Updates for the Music and Video Preview apps: We’ve also shipped updates to these apps. The Music Preview app (3.6.999.0) has some UX improvements including a more immersive Now Playing experience with a true full screen mode. With the Video Preview app (3.6.999.0) – you can download movies, TV shows, and TV seasons and check progress, pause, resume, cancel the download. You can also download, delete, and even re-download videos as many times as you want on up to three devices (we’re planning to increase the number of devices you can download content too!). Closed captioning for purchased content now appears. You will see a list of new features when you first launch these app after each update!
    Xbox app April 2015 update: The Xbox app for Windows 10 has been updated (your version number should be 4.4.9014.0 or higher) with new features like Game DVR for PC games, screenshots, a Live Tile, user profiles, and real-name sharing. Oh and the drivers for Xbox controllers are now included with Windows 10, so you no longer have to download and install controller drivers on Windows 10. For more on this month’s Xbox app for Windows 10 update as well as the new Avatars app – read this blog post.
    Windows Store Beta improvements: We’re excited about delivering a single unified Store experience in Windows 10 which we’re talking more about this week at Build. We’ve made some improvements to the Store Beta which is now a blue tile instead of grey. Xbox Live games should be working and so are in-app purchases. Apps you purchased on a PC running Windows 8.1 will now show up in the Store Beta on Windows 10 as owned (and vice-versa). We’re also expanding the Store Beta from 41 markets with the addition of these new markets: Afghanistan, Åland Islands, Albania, Algeria, American Samoa, Andorra, Angola, Anguilla, Antarctica, Antigua and Barbuda, Armenia, Aruba, Azerbaijan, The Bahamas, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belize, Benin, Bermuda, Bahrain, Bhutan, Bolivia, Bonaire, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Botswana, Bouvet Island, Cyprus, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Georgia, Ghana, Guatemala, Iceland, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Malta, Pakistan, Qatar, Sri Lanka, Jordan, Lebanon, Nicaragua, Oman, Panama, Puerto Rico, Paraguay, Trinidad and Tobago, Uganda, Venezuela.
    Discovering features and apps in Windows 10: We are investing in easy “bite-sized” learning and discovery experiences so that users can get more out of Windows 10. This ranges from tips and tricks on the Lock screen, to helping users discover high quality apps through Start, the Lock screen and Cortana. Be confident that you won’t miss out on new features and enjoy the ease of having high quality apps curated for you. It’s optional, and if anything doesn’t strike your fancy, you can provide feedback directly, such as whether you like an image or an app. These new experiences will be rolling out over time, so you may not see them in your market yet.
    Here are some things we fixed
    You can now launch Win32 (desktop) apps from the Start menu again. Sorry about this bug!
    You should be able to download music in the Xbox Music and Music Preview apps.
    When you minimize an app playing audio, it should continue playing in the background.
    Here are some known issues
    Developers cannot enable Developer Mode in the Settings app for installing and testing apps on this build. We’ll enable this in an upcoming build. In the meantime, you will need enable your device for development using the Group Policy Editor.
    There is an issue in this build preventing some games from playing in full screen mode. We’re working to get a fix out via WU as soon as possible.
    The People app continues to crash. We’re planning to release an update for the People app through the Store Beta that fixes this.
    We hope you’ll agree that 10074 has some nice improvements and is another step forward towards delivering a great Windows 10 release. Please put it through the paces and keep sending us feedback on the things that you like and the things you want us to keep working on using the Windows Feedback app. I hope that you’ll also download the development tools released at Build and will build some terrific Universal Windows apps as well!
    Thanks,

  • New version of the LabHSM Toolkit for Complex Event-Driven Development is Now Available!

    A new version of the unique toolkit is now available for download. As announced earlier, LabHSM makes it possible to easily create and then maintain complex event-driven applications in LabVIEW as a collection of HSM-driven active object VIs using a higher level of abstraction and agile software development methodologies. These active object VIs are created based on a universal Hierarchical State Machine ( HSM or statechart ) template. Therefore, all your code looks similar regardless of its functionality!
    So, what’s new in version 1.1?
    • "No hands" block diagram modifications! Version 1.1 actually creates, renames, and removes actions on the block diagram as you define, rename, and remove them in the editor! (No, it can't fill in all the details for you, but it can do some, if you think ahead, by replicating similar actions.)
    • Two new screens, Events Usage and Actions Usage, (available in licensed copies only) clearly show where (in which state(s)/transition(s)) and how (is it an entry action, exit action or event handling action?) a particular event or action is used. Moreover, if after selecting an instance on the list, the Go To button is pressed, it makes the main screen jump to respective location in the HSM structure. In the case of Actions Usage screen, the respective action is also displayed on the block diagram. Thus, these screens provide two more different cross-sections of the HSM data set and two additional ways to navigate it – now along the Actions and Events dimensions too instead of just the state tree in the first version.
    • Version 1.1 can duplicate events or actions, which helps when you've got several that are similar. Changes in the events and actions lists are reflected immediately on the main screen and on the block diagram (which solves the previous problem of deleting a renamed event or action when it's still in use).
    • The Events and Actions List Editors are no longer modal and neither are the Events and Actions Usage screens, so you can have all the panels and the block diagram visible and move freely among them as you build your HSM (a good argument for an even larger monitor).
    • When you save an HSM file, version 1.1 automatically adds the .hsm extension if you leave it out and it remembers the last directory you used.
    • The Loaded VIs utility now can open and close block diagrams (if they are not protected with a password) and display only VIs with modal front panels, if desired—useful for quickly finding and closing accidentally opened (e.g., from the hierarchy window) modal VIs. Make a modal version of this utility and keep it on the Desktop for this purpose.
    • A new example of a simple hierarchical state machine and two more excellent tutorials from Paul F. Sullivan (SULLutions.com) are included into the package. The tutorials are also available online. The overview article has also been extended.
    As before, the LabHSM toolkit is available for UNLIMITED PERIOD trial. Please visit http://www.labhsm.com for details and download. The site also contains references which you may want to check to learn more about hierarchical state machines and active object computing.

    I am not really sure if Azure support this but its worth to make your configuration file to support .NET 4.0
    $PShome\PowerShell_ISE.CONFIG and $PSHOME\PowerShell.exe.config will be not existing.
    So you can make an entry in configuration to support .NET framework 4.0
    like shown below
    $config_text = @"
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <configuration>
    <startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
    <supportedRuntime version="v4.0.30319"/>
    <supportedRuntime version="v2.0.50727"/>
    </startup>
    </configuration>
    $config_text| Out-File $pshome\powershell.exe.config
    $config_text| Out-File $pshome\powershell_ise.exe.config
    Close PowerShell Console and open as administrator.
    Try loading the modules back and let me know.

    Not at all.  I like good tools, and from everything I read Bridge is marvelous.  I don't have anything against Bridge, I just don't need it.
    As a computer engineer, I use my computer for WAY more than just Photoshop.  As such, I do everything I can to have the operating system (via Windows Explorer) integrate things for me.
    For example, via right-click or double-click or drag and drop onto icons:
    I access my configuration management system from Explorer (Tortoise SubVersion).
    I do searches (grepWin) from Explorer.
    I compare things (Beyond Compare) from Explorer.
    I start Photoshop and other image tools on raw and processed image files I manage with Explorer.
    I start my development tools (Visual Studio and a host of utilities) from Explorer (e.g., double click .sln files).
    I access my web sites with Explorer (via WebDrive).
    I get file paths from Explorer (right click, Send to Clipboard as Name).
    I access office management apps from Explorer (e.g., double click .doc or .xls files).
    This is an abbreviated list.  Explorer can be a VERY powerful integrator, and is at the center of my computing world at a higher level.  So now you can start to imagine why I prefer Explorer for image work.

    Specific to this crowd, there are some fixes to AppleScript support in the update.

    Is there an "official" response for this yet?  I am also experiencing problems with scripting on
    Win 7 64bit (even using CreateObject instead of COM references in project).  Am wondering (
    and hoping) this is all related.

  • PS4 System software v 2.55 is now available

    Please help. My friend on psn by the gamer tag of OMG_LoKi has been banned and claims he doesn't know the cause. I play with him but do not violate anything in the game world, meaning we don't mod or hack. He said after this update, when he tries to sign in it says he is either banned or temporarily suspended. This is my best friend and the only one I really talk to, so please help him get his account back online. Also, it states that there is no error code.

  • Official Lightroom 3.3 update now available

    Lightroom 3.3 update now available.Details here:http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2010/12/lightroom-3-3-and-came ra-raw-6-3-now-available.html

    It is absolutely disappointing that the issues regarding the editing of keywords with spaces have not been addressed again. Another release where nothing is done about it. How long is this gonna take? The issue was raised long time ago and existed already in version 2. Is Adobe expecting that the DAM features of Lightroom are used by professionals? Currently, the entry of keywords with spaces is awkward and because of wrong keyword completion can lead to faulty keyword assignments. Please, do soemthing about it. The bug is already acknowledged.

  • Windows SteadyState 2.5 Is Now Available!

    Windows SteadyState 2.5 Is Now Available!
    We are pleased to announce the release of Windows SteadyState 2.5, available in 9 languages from the Microsoft Shared Access Site:  
    http://www.microsoft.com/sharedaccess
    Providing solutions to help manage shared computers has been a consistent request from partners, end users around the world.  Microsoft has a very compelling solution with SteadyState enabling our shared access partners to protect shared access computers by cleaning the system with every restart, making them easier to manage and protect. It also restricts users from accessing system settings and data, preventing inadvertent or malicious damage, and thus, improving the up time of these PCs.
    Besides offering excellent desktop security, SteadyState is user-friendly and reliable, it reduces downtime, is easy to maintain, and is free of charge to genuine Windows XP and Windows Vista customers.
    SteadyState is a great solution for schools, libraries, families, internet cafés, telecenters, rural kiosks, and community centers, providing better computer access to underserved markets where non-technical managers are often responsible for shared computers.
    New features in SteadyState version 2.5 include the following:
    •       Full support for Windows Vista
    •       Full support for Internet Explorer 7 and tabbed browsing
    •       Overall improved performance
    •       Faster booting
    •       Faster system caching
    •       Remote management of Windows Disk Protection through scripting
    •       Improved importing & exporting  of user information

    I have a major gripe about the instructions for SteadyState.  I have gone over the handbook and each and every time I read it, I come back with more questions than answers.  Very frustrating.  I have two major issues I would like to resolve. 
    The first is that when I imaged drive when SteadyState was installed, I could not open my Sophos anti-virus any longer with the admin account.  I kept getting message saying I was not part of Sophos Administrator group, which I was.  I even removed
    and re-added my user to the group, and it did nothing.  Uninstalling did not let me in either.  What a nightmare!  What good is it to install something if I cannot do something as simple as opening an installed program to check settings or quarantine? 
    Second major issue is the whole ambiguosly confusing explanation of User accounts in the handbook.  What a crock!  If I set up the computer, add the users and setup each profile before installing SteadyState, then install SteadyState, there should
    be no User restrictions except what I say after the install.  For instance, I only tell SteadyState to not allow users to save to C:\ drive.  That should mean any user, non-admin, should not be able to save to the drive.  Period.  When
    reading the handbook, it goes on and on about shared users, shared accounts, blah blah blah.  Do I have to go into SteadyState and change User accounts no matter what?  If so, that seems like a real nightmare to setup over and over.  Does that
    mean with that simple protection setting of no saving to drive, I need to also go and create User accounts in SteadyState as well so I can do something as simple as having the desktop wallpaper from the original setup show up for the user?  Will
    the screen saver settings stay the same, or do I have to go into SteadyState and change that as well in User settings?  Which, of course, will create a whole new profile for the user, which is NOT what everyone really wants.  Can't we just install
    SteadyState and say no saving to drive and leave the disk protection, etc. off and be done with it?  It sure does not seem like it.  Maybe we are just idiots here, but it is no help whatsoever for me to read this handbook again.  Since one cannot
    talk to someone for free, not sure what else to do.  We used this software before for 66 computers in one of our labs, and after installation, we wanted to simplify the setup as much as possible due to continual issues with users not being able to do
    this and that even though they were supposed to have "permission" to do so.  No internet on these machines, just wanted to prevent users from saving to drive to prevent drive filling up and to allow the drivers we installed on admin account to work when
    non-admin user plugged in USB equipment into port.
