ATI M4 video chipset through Sun XF86 Port kit

Although Xfree86 supports this chipset, the SUn port kit doesn't seem to be able to make it work.
Does anybody have experience with this chipset. PC is a Dell latitude c800, with the M4 chipset and 16 mb of vram

Does my MacBook passes audio through Mini Display Port or not?

I recently bought a Mini DisplayPort > HDMI adapter in order to display my MacBook on my TV. Other users of the same adapter publicly stated that they got video AND audio out, but I got only video.
I've been searching this online for two days now and I still don't know why (I even searched this support forum, but I must admit that I got a little lost and decided to write my own topic). All I discovered was that some MacBooks have this capacity (to port audio along with video through Mini DisplayPort) and others don't.
I'm using a white MacBook unibody bought new and latest on late 2009. It's the first model with multitouch trackpad and without FireWire port. Its model name is "MacBook 6,1", I guess.
Does anybody know for sure if It CAN, in fact deliver audio+video through the Mini DisplayPort if I'm using a compatible HDMI adapter?
Thanks.

These models pass audio through the display port:
iMac (Late 2009), MacBook Pro (Mid 2010), MacBook (Mid 2010), and Mac mini (Mid 2010) supply multichannel audio (up to 8 channels) and video signals over Mini DisplayPort. To connect your television or other HDMI devices to your Mac, use select third-party Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters that conform to the VESA v1.1a DisplayPort Interoperability Guidelines. The following adapters adhere to these standards:
- Moshi Mini DP to HDMI Adapter with Audio Support
- Griffin Video Display Converter (Mini DisplayPort to HDMI and DVI)

S-Video to Digital TVA RCA ports

I have a V5000 3 yr old Compaq Presario notebook and I am trying to connect a 4 pin S video cable (with an audio line) from the notebook s-video jack to the RCA ports on a sony digital TV. The sound comes through, but no picture. When I hit function F4 there is a flicker, but no picture on the TV.
I also tried the dual monitor in Display to no avail.
Any ideas? Anything that needs to be changed in the setup?

I have an older Analog-to-Digital/Digital-to-Analog converter box I bought many years ago to do just what you describe under Windows. It has RCA and S-video in as well as firewire in, then it also has the same on the output side. This allows me to take an alaog video signal in through this boix and send it to my computer to capture using my sodftware of choice. WHen I first bought the box, I was using a Dell laptop & Vegas Video (version 4 to date it). Now I am using my MacBook Pro and iMovie (it came free with the OS X 10.7 license).
The devie I bought was from Pinnacle, and I believe they are still in business, but I don't seem to see the firewire devices any more. They do still have plenty of USB ones, but you will relly want the Firewire if you can get it...

How to interface instruments through TCP/IP port

I want to connect an instrument ( which has RS-232 port ) to a Computer Ethernet port through an Ethernet to RS-232/485 Converter. In past I had successfully made many GUI with Java-2 swing to interface instruments via serial ports (COM-1, COM-2 etc.). This time I am interested to do the same thing but through TCP/IP port programming in Java-2 application.
Please suggest me websites/java tutorial sites where I may get guide line, advice and sample example programmes.

Until you understand this then coding in java is pointless.
Then you use sockets. There isn't any magic for that part.

Video editing through USB

Is it possible to damage the macbook's hard disk drive or any of its components by editing video from an external hard disk drive through a USB port?

The short answer is no. The longer answer is that the USB port is not what you would call a shining example of hardware engineering, and repeatedly plugging things in, and removing them, from the port will gradually damage it. Difficult to say just how long it will take. Could be only a couple of months, could be years, might be you get a new system before it ever happens.
And this isn't an Apple specific issue, it's a USB in general issue. Doesn't matter if it's Apple, Dell, Acer, HP, or anyone else. USB just flat ***** no matter where you find it.

Using a PS/2 keyboard on a Sparc workstation through the serial port

We have recently migrated an application that used to run on a PC, to now run on a Sparc Workstation. This is a SunBlade 1500, running Solaris 8. The application is running in a dedicated console which has a fitted keyboard and trackerball that have PS/2 connectors and cannot be changed.
We need a way of connecting the PS/2 keyboards to the serial ports of the Sparc workstation. We already have a piece of software that will read ascii values from the serial port so we definately want to go through the serial ports.
Can someone please suggest what converters will be required to get the output of the keyboard and trackerball as ascii input to the serial port.

Actually, that's not a bit perverse, at all.
Jonathan's suggestion is a standard method of connecting to a server.
(null cable between the computer serial ports)
... see the Solaris man pages.
man tip
TeraTerm and Hyperterminal are customarily used on a PC running some dialect of Windows.
The 'tip' command is all that's necessary between Solaris systems.
PS/2 is not a serial connection, but is a keyboard/mouse interface 'invented' by IBM when they offered their XT-class PS/2 line of desktop systems, back in the 1980's.
I found this next link by using Google:
http://members.chello.at/theodor.lauppert/computer/ps2/
The smaller DIN ports were more compact than the AT-class keyboard ports and the mouse moved from a serial port to a dedicated mouse port.
Serial communication devices are not keyboards, per se,
and keyboards are not serial communication devices.
You need other hardware in between to translate what the human being sends, and another computer is a common method to accomplish that translation.
Having said all that ...
Since you cannot change the dedicated console hardware,
I suggest you go to the manufacturer of that console equipment
and have them suggest some sort of serial-to-serial interface lash-up.

I have a record player hooked up through the audio port. The input volume is registering high, but there is no output anywhere. Help?

I have a record player hooked up to a preamp which is hooked up through the audio port.The sound settings are set to have the audio port be "input". The input volume is registering high with fluxuations in the sound settings, but there is no output anywhere. Do I need some sort of third party application or widget to hear the record i'm playing through the speakers that are hooked up to my computer?

keithstopher,
You may want to check into a USB interface, as I believe you have a Mac with the single audio port, which can be used as input OR output.
You may want to check into something like the following, there are may out there, see what fits your needs best.

Is there a way to connect an external speaker (for another room) through the headphone port

Is there a way to connect an external speaker (for another room) through the headphone port & still hear sound through the internal speakers? System Preferences/Sound/Output or Sound Effects allows you to use one or the other -- headphones or internal speakers. I would like to have the option of hearing music through the internal speakers in one room, & through an external speaker in another room at the same time. I also do not want to frequently disconnect/reconnect the external speaker from/to the headphone port as I know over time the connection could become loose. (10.7.4 Lion)

dont think so but I could be wrong
as it were I didn't like the build in audio so I connected some external logictech 2.1 speakers but there
are times when I use headset so I bought this one
or any minijack splitter will work too so I have 2 things connected to the headset port works just fine

I've got a 7 year old 30gb video ipod and the headphone port no longer works! Please help :)

I've got a 7 year old 30gb video ipod and the headphone port no longer works.
I went to the Apple shop and they said it is now vintage and they can't fix my baby they offered me 10% to trade her in for a new model...
what else can I try to save her? I've tried cleaning and wiggling and restoring. Everything looks and feels ok.

I've just found 'iPod Dock Connector Headphone Jack' on ebay it as an adapter that will connect my earphones via the wide ipod port better than 10% of something new

I want to transfer data through the serial port in the same coding that hyperterminal uses. How can i do it?

The serial port seems to be working, and labview seems to be sending the data, but the problem is in which format does it send the data, because in hyperterminal i just input the string "JDX" and it sends it to my device, with labview it sends something but my device does not recognize it.

Hyperterminal adds the carriage return/line feed to the string which is
generated by the return key to send out the current line. LabVIEW simply
sends out what you tell it, so try to set the string to "Show \ Display"
format and add a \r or \n or \r\n to the command you want to send out.
Assumes of course that you set the right baudr
ate/bits/parity etc in
LabVIEW with the VISA property node, when opening the serial port.

Second monitor nor being detected through dvi-d port

Hi I have a Hp s5610y slimline. Windows 7 64 bit . It is a newer system with 3 ghz ram and over 600 g.b ram so I know it is not a performance issue, (system handling the duty) I am trying to hook up dual monitors, the product specs page on H.P states that the Vga and Dvi -d ports can both be used at the same time. I have the dvi-d converter to vga hooked up to a monitor through the Vga port on one computer ( that is not working). The port from Vga to vga works fine( the first monitor. I already check the easy stuf like "enabling dual monitor", unplugging the monitor, updating the lastest driver for radeon 3000 and restarting windows. I hooked up two monitors before with no problems. Any ideas out there?
Thanks,
Manny

>I have the dvi-d converter to vga ....
This will never work!
vga is an analog signal, dvi-d is digital.
Only dvi-a or dvi-i can convert to analog vga.

I have a HDD attached to my AirPort Express through a 7-port USB

I have a HDD attached to my AirPort Express through a 7-port USB hub. How come it doesn't show in my iMac?

To add to what Tesserax said -

The USB port on the Express only supports a USB printer. You will need to connect the hub to your iMac.

I want to build an array using the data that I get through the serial port

I am reading data through the serial port, but I want to buffer these data. I have seen a function, but i think that i can use this if I am reading data from I/O intrument, so I don´t how can I fill an array, with the data that I am reading!!!
Thank you!!!

I'll hazard a guess that you are reading data with VISA as a string. Then you want to convert that (probably with Scan From String) into a number. Then, you want to collect those numbers into an array.
We don't really have enough information to tell you the best way to do this. Here are some ideas.
If you are reading all the numbers from the instrument at once (e.g., a waveform from a scope), you might consider using "Spreadsheet string to array". Most scopes return the data as ASCII with commas between the values, so you'd wire a "," to the "delimiter" input of the "Spreadsheet string to array" function.
If, however, the instrument is returning a single point at a time, there are more questions. Do you want to do this continuously, or do you want t
o collect only a certain number of data points, and then process them as a block?
If the latter, then you'd just acquire each data point, convert it to a number, and then use output indexing on the for loop to create your array.
If the former, then you may want to store the data in a queue, and read it from the queue elsewhere in your program.
If you let us know what you want to do, we can probably provide more precise help.
