Handheld Computing with Linux and Microsoft.

I was persuing Best Buy's web site and I saw this
It's nice to see more commercial products with Linux on them.  This seems to be a cool idea, in an attempt to combat Microsoft's new handheld which has been rumored..oragiami.  http://www.origamiproject.com/1/

And they're doing the right thing re GPL/OSS/etc - full details here.
Wouldn't mind getting hold of one of these.....

  • How come I can't put music on my ipod? I already have a fair amount of music on my ipod but I have enough space for more. I am using a new computer with itunes and it is telling me if I wasnt to put the new music on my ipd i need to erase my ipod HELP!

    Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
    - Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
    - Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
    To move mdia to the new computer see:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer

  • I have a toshiba lap top computer with vista and I can not get my iphone to connect all the way .. it says "connected with limited activity"?

    I have a toshiba lap top computer with vista and I can not get my new iphone to connect all the way .... it says "connected with limited activity". which means I don't get on. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.  

    Hi all,
    Guess I understand what is going on as I'm also experiencing the problem.
    Basically the issue is about the iPhone 4's personal hotspot.
    I'm trying to hook on personal hotspot to my toshiba laptop but it couldnt work as the connection is limited to local only without Internet access.
    The hotspot works well on other laptop and I-devices, but not my toshiba...
    Hope to get assistance here. Thanks

  • Windows 7 on Bootcamp I am locked into a DOS screen and it is not installing.  I have been on line with Apple and microsoft and they can't help.  I have lated versions of Lion and bootcamp. HELP

    I ran bootcamp and tried to install Windows 7.  I end up with a DOS screen and an unresponsive keyboard. 
    I have been on line with Apple and microsoft and they can't help.  I have lated versions of Lion and bootcamp. HELP!
    My Lion is up to date.
    I used the 64-bit windows disc.
    Should I try parallels?

    Do you have a DOS screen with a command prompt or just a blank screen?
    Is your Windows 7 x64 an original MS Full Version Installation DVD?
    Did Windows 7 Install Disc start?
    If it did you would have had to choose the location of where to install Windows 7.
    Did you select the Partition named BOOTCAMP that corresponded to the Partition Size you created in BootCamp?
    Were you asked to format the Partition?
    Did you format the partition to NTFS and then get an option to click NEXT and actually start the Windows 7 installation?
    Do you have a wired USB keyboard and wired USB mouse?
    If you actual went through the installation and restarted then here are some things to try:
    First try doing a CONTROL-ALT-DELETE and see if a Windows Option Screen appears.
    If you get the Screen you will have some options displayed.
    You want to highlight and click TASK MANAGER which should be the bottom choice I beleive.
    If Task Manager runs you will get a window showing all the processes running.
    See if you can find EXPLORER.
    If EXPLORER is running highlight it and go to the bottom right and click the END TASK button.
    Now go to the Top Left Menu Bar.
    Click FILE
    In the sub menu that opens select RUN  or RUN NEW TASK (Not sure which it is in Windoes 7 as I am running Windows 8)
    Once RUN is selected a new window will open to CREATE NEW TASK
    Type in EXPLORER and then the OK button.
    If Windows 7 installed properly the Desktop should appear after a bit of time.
    Your first concern is to get your keyboard running so you may have to remove and reinstall Windows using Boot Camp on the Mac Side.
    Let us know how it goes..

  • All my PC's and computer(both Apple and Microsoft) will conect to internet except appleTV I have exhausted all resets, It did work yesterday now no connection

    All my PC's and computer(both Apple and Microsoft) will conect to internet except appleTV I have exhausted all resets, It did work yesterday now no connection Has anyone had same problem ?

    Resets are not a solution.  Have you done any actual trouble shooting?  What is the actual symptom you are experiencing?  If you are using WiFi have you tried directly connecting it using a wired connection.

  • Hi, I have a specific website that keeps blocking me from going to website I want to view.  It is called vnebo.pro or mobi. I also have a pc computer with Kaspersky and it blocks it.  How do I remove it or block it from my computer.

    Hi,
    I have a specific website that keeps blocking me from going to website I want to view.  It is called vnebo.pro or mobi. I also have a pc computer with Kaspersky and it blocks it.  How do I remove it or block it from my computer?  It only appears at my home, when I use my mac at other places I don't have a problem.
    Thanks for any help!

    Thank you for the reply. I wanted to wait awhile in order to ensure that this corrected the issue. For a brief while, it did! However, it did not take long before the screen began once again hijacking my home button presses. This occurs even with Firefox removed from default applications ( triple-checked ).
    This never happened before version 35.

  • Comparison of Installing HCM and Campus Solution 9.0 with Linux and Windows

    Folks,
    Hello. I am installing HCM and Campus Solution 9.0 Revision 5 with PeopleTools 8.53.
    PeopleSoft Internet Architecture is WebLogic11g/Tuxedo11g/OracleDatabase11g with OS Oracle Linux 5.10.
    In the process of seting up its database instance named "HRCS90" using /opt/PT8.53/setup/PsMpDbInstall/setup.sh, there is a step as below:
    Database Create Type:
    1) Demo
    2) System
    3) PeopleTools System
    Either select Demo or System, the next step "select PeopleSoft Applications" has only one item:
    1) PeopleSoft HRCS Demo Database - US English.
    When set up "HRCS90" with SQL Server 2005 and Windows Server 2003, there is one more item: PeopleSoft HRCS Database - US English.
    I don't need Demo database. I need HRCS database only because Demo database occupies much more disk space.
    The document "PeopleSoft Human Capital Management and Campus Solutions 9.0 Revision 5 Installation Guide" does not state the detailed process to set up HRCS database instance.
    I cannot find other PeopleSoft documents regarding set up HRCS database instance.
    My questions are:
    First, how much more disk space does "HRCS Demo database" occupy than "HRCS database" ? Is there "HRCS database" for Linux and Oracle Database ?
    Second, can you find PeopleSoft document regarding the process of seting up HRCS 9.0  database instance with Linux and Oracle Database ?
    Thanks.

    It could come from how you installed the software itself (options checked). Have a look to that thread, it could help.

  • Lenovo Wireless Headset W770 compatibility with Linux and Mac

    Hi,  
    Can someone provide me information on Lenovo Wireless Headset W770 compatibility with Linux and Mac distributions.  On the product overview page under Software Requirements, only Windows is mentioned.  http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?submit=true&componentID=1343112653906&DocID=PD...
    Please let me know if the headset can work with other distributions as well. 
    Thanks & Regards,
    Keya
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I just received W770 and tried it on a PC and it worked. But when I plug the USB receiver in a macbook air (2011 MAC OS 10.6.8), it didn't work. The message I got is that MAC can't recognize the "keyboard" and asked me to press the shift button on the unrecognized keyboard- which I guess meant that the MAC treated the USB dongle as if it were a wireless keyboard of some sort. Anyway, would appreciate it if you could let me know how to make it work on MAC. The previous statement saying that it would work on any Lenovo machine regardless of OS is kinda of unclear - do you mean that it would also work on lenovo running MAC OS (is there any Lenovo running Mac OS?). Thanks.

  • Bought Computer with Vista and received a free Windows 7 upgrade - can I download Windows 7?

    I purchased my computer with Windows Vista and was able to get a free upgrade of Windows 7.  I've scanned my computer for viruses on Microsoft and they find no viruses.  My anti-virus program has scanned the computer and has found nothing. 
    Yesterday I was trying to install a program and that's when my anti-virus program told me there was a threat.  It removed it  and I kept on with the installation.  After that my Internet Explorer doesn't work and when I go to "Uninstall
    Programs" it only shows that I have just Microsoft programs, everything under "M" and nothing else.  I've tried to restore my computer and every time after a restore it gives me an error code 0x80070005.  I've turned off anti-virus
    and restored and have even restored in Safe Mode but still get the same error message.  Does anyone know what I can do to get this straightened out??

    Hi,
    What is the anti-virus program you have on your computer? Please take a try to uninstall the 3rd party anti-virus program and then perform the system restore under
    system recovery options.
    Some 3rd-party anti-virus program might not be incompatible with Windows processes.
    Here is a similar threads for reference:
    error code 0X80070005

  • How to set up bundle on new computer with SSD and 2 TB harddrive?

    I bought a new computer with a 120 GB SSD and a 2TB datadrive. I have 16 GB RAM and am runnung windows 7 home edition (64-bit operating system). I just have my OS on the SSD which now only has 75.2 GB free. I searched on line and tweaked the SSD to get the most space. From what I've read many suggest putting all your programs on the SSD (which I think will fill up very fast) and just using the Datadrive for pictures, files etc. I'm thinking that maybe some should be loaded on the datadrive and maybe the one that need it could be put on the C: SSD. I have no idea!! Looking for advice. I bought the Production Premium bundle. Thanks for any help!

    Addendum: I tried all of the suggestions on the Firefox web site, but they do not match the options available on 16. There is not "Manage Account" option that I can find on 16.

    You will likely have to repair the drive from Leopard's install disk. Hold down c key while booting and repair drive from Utilities. Directions for Pram (Ram)
    Resetting PRAM and NVRAM
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • Flash video with linux and Shockwave Flash 7.0 r63

    I'm trying to get flashvideo working with a simple swf:
    message = "";
    var connection_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
    connection_nc.connect(null);
    var stream_ns:NetStream = new NetStream(connection_nc);
    videoObject.attachVideo(stream_ns);
    stream_ns.play("test.flv");
    stream_ns.onStatus = function(infoObject)
    message += "\r"+infoObject.code;
    This is working with windows xp/2003 but not with the version
    7 of the flashplayer with linux. The output only shows:
    NetStream.Play.StreamNotfound
    The move file (test.flv) is located inthe same directory as
    the main.swf.
    Is flashvideo supported with the linuxplayer?

    Hi!
    I am trying really hard to do what you are trying to get rid of!
    I am new to iWeb and know very little about what coding is, but am trying to get this to happen...
    1) have "welcome" page automatically play a very short 2 or 3 second full screen video (heavily compressed I guess?)
    2) As soon as the video ends, the actual, static, welcome screen opens / shows itself.
    That's it!
    But I have no idea as to how to make it happen. Can I copy and paste the code you have in your message? I would really, really appreciate any and all help you can offer.
    Thanks!
