    Software Restore

    If you stick to using .pnd files to install most of your programs, you won't experience the slow, inexorable failure of registry creep or its equivalents in the *nix arena. The install scheme is designed to leave no trace in the base operating system. So unless you're planning on using the...

    Why Not Wacom?

    I just read over some of the techical specs on www.wacom-components.com. While I wasn't aware Wacom was willing to work with smaller vendors on custom solutions, I think it's irrelevant. The marketing quote you referenced is for Wacom's EMR technology which requires the use of a specially...

    Strange... I keep doing different calculations and I keep coming up with 2 months. Edit: Ugly broken quote

    An Appropriate Poem For Op

    This poem is often recited at the end of a school year, or at graduation ceremonies. It's commonly interpreted as an admonishment to take the road less travelled, rather than the one well worn, the implication being that the more difficult path is often the most rewarding. We'll see how well...

    Compiler/assembler/interpreter On The Pandora

    Wow. Harsh crowd around here. Since it hasn't been covered yet, here are some keyword searches that might point you in the right direction if you decide to compile code for the Pandora on your desktop or laptop (BTW, this process is called cross-compiling): crosstool codesourcery g++...

    Update From Ed On Official Blog

    I think this is more like confusing ihrer for seiner, rather than seiner for seinem.

    Tv On Pandora ?

    That's interesting. Seems very similar to Orb. It looks like mplayer supports MMS. There's already an arm port, so you may not even need VLC to get it to run. Depends on what support has been compiled in, I guess. Along the same lines as Starmedia, have you looked at Jinzora? It streams...

    Tv On Pandora ?

    MythTV doesn't run well at all on BeagleBoard, even though there is an ARM version in the Angstrom repos. That is, the menus for mythfrontend seem to work just fine, but once you try to play back any media, it's game over. Luckily, MythTV provides a pretty well-documented protocol for...

    2 Questions About The Internet Connection

    I've been thinking along the same lines, and the two most attractive solutions (for me, anyway) are a cheap Symbian phone running Joikuspot (share your data connection over Wi-fi) or a MiFi router. Either solution mitigates the need for drivers or device-specific linux support. Hmm.. looks...

    New Unofficial Blog Feature: Live Chat

    Execute this during the migration process (after you export to xml, and prior to importing at the new location): sed -i 's/<old base url>/<new base url>/g' *.xml Remember to replace the old/new base urls with the actual values.

    Stream Media From Pc, Tethering, Flash/divx, Songbird, Information App

    I'm not sure about orblive, but I used orb quite successfully a couple years ago. I was able to stream to a windows mobile handheld, Mac, Linux, and Windows boxes. I'll say this -- if VLC gets ported to Pandora in all its full-featured glory, you should have no trouble with Orb. That said, it...

    Mouse Emulators For Joysticks

    MythTV provides a built-in solution for this, MythGame. Setup for individual emulators can be found here. I've been using this for quite a while to launch NES, SNES, and Playstation games from within the MythFrontend GUI. It can even launch PC games (I'm currently hooked on playing...

    How Can The Community Help Now?

    I'm tempted to make a joke about babysitting someone's GF or wife, but it's just too easy. That, and the GF joke has already been done this month.

    Random Shutdowns In Windows... Linux And Mac Fine... Even Tried Restor

    You'll see a message every time the machine boots or reboots. So the morning after this happens (or if it happened recently, you can look now -- the messages should be sorted by date/time), look back into the messages before the bootup message and see if there are any errors noted. Then google...

    Second Shoulder Buttons

    Yes That image is from the official blog from way back when. The board in that image should be close enough to production to remain accurate today. I believe we had confirmation in one thread or other that the 'R2 Spare' and 'L2 Spare' areas on either side of the board are, indeed, the solder...

    Anyone Else Into Sushi?

    MMmmm.. chirashi. My three favorite sushi joints, in no particular order: New Tokyo in Marina, CA (Everything was extremely fresh and tender, even the squid!) Midori Sushi in Austin, TX (The Boca Raton roll is awesome) Yoshi in Hammersmith, London, UK (A little less artsy, more traditional...

    Your Ideal Handheld Device?

    @ashdjones -- badassery! I love it. I've been thinking for a while now that an e-ink enabled keymat might be in order in the ideal handheld. Its use seems kind of limited here in the Samsung Alias 2, but with a more open platform, I see a lot of potential. We could maybe even resolve all...
