EeePc in arrival?

Between some day it is my birthday and, waiting for the auguries, creed of successful being to discover my beautiful one “gift”. And that “gift”, since, if the indications are translate in tests, draft of a fiammante Asus EEEPC 900, “piccolino” I will now call thus it in then.  eeepc900.jpg Therefore waiting for this jewel I have begun “to fantasticare” I know, it I seem a child waiting for its toy but, the gadgets technological they make this effect me, I cannot makes nothing, I said us I have begun “to fantasticare” on its configuration, on which distro installing to the place of the “little thrilling one” (I have seen some screencast) Xandros, and on the tool to add. For distro the task to me to be oriented for the Ubuntu Netbook Remix of which I have already mailed previously and that own today is reached the final release with the version releasable standard 1,0 under form of iso on the eeebuntu.org site; it seems must be available beginning from the 21/07. On the tool instead the situation it is tantino a more complex; in fact, if initially the utilities appeared on the EeeUser forums they were in limited measure now is possible to choose on a great amount of software that improves the performances sure of “piccolino” it allows and us to work with more efficiency.
Obviously, stantela premise, I still do not have them heads and of it I do not know the usefullness on Ubuntu Netbook Remix, therefore my speech is pure theoretical, indeed I ask news someone with more experience. However we see of it some:

TweakEEE is a tool that it incorporates a series of applications on “piccolino”, to es. the last version, Beta 0,4 adds Digikam, EMEditor, Google Earth w/fix, SuperTux, GnoCH, Firefox 3 Beta 5, EEEControl, GPRS Config Utility, MS Core Fonts, basKet, Gweled.
It comes thus distributed under form of package .deb from being able to install it with a simple one I sudo dpkg - the tweakeee_0.4-0.i386.deb. Situated Sul of reference other information on this interesting tool. To try!

3eGPRS This utility concurs with “piccolino” (with a bluetooth adapter since it is not equipped any of default) establishing a logon to Internet of type GPRS with I telephone cellular, operation that, nomalmente, necesita of an participation from commando line.

pimpmyeee are a script bash that it allows, to es., to qualify the Full desktop, to add repo for software of third parts, to qualify codec ulterirori, to install script in order to ignite or to thus extinguish the webcam and via. It has the air of being extremely interesting.

Obviously us of others will be many and there will be pleasing if you signaled me the more interesting so as to at best prepare me for the arrival of “piccolino”, hoping not to have taken “cantonata”. To days the sentence…

Android SDK only for “contest winner”.

It seems to me that the gentleman of Google are exaggerating. You it seems just who to benefigiare of the new modernizations to the SDK of Android are only the vincitori of the contest? And the others?
Bitter the comment of a sviluppatore on the forum of Android: “Thus while some benefit of a release private of SDK, the rest of we suffers from more than 4 months with the bug battery from the old one release”.
I cannot that share, above all considering the fact that to the Italians has not been granted to participate to the contest. Besides the damage the prank. ciuchinoincazzato.jpg

Among other things this beautiful thought chronological is dated a pair of weeks after that a sviluppatore had begun to make circular a petition online speeding up Google approximately the urgency of update. There is from thinking that some “developer incazzato” is put to develop software for the iPhone. In order now Google not retort, we will be to see.

Ubuntu fortress

The news is old of some month, but, to my opinion, it deserves of being riesaminata, above all from who as me it has a lot to heart the risen ones of “pinguino”. According to the site register in “hacking contest” svoltosi ones during a famous conference of Canadian emergency, the CanSec West, the surer operating system has demonstrated Ubuntu. fortezza.jpg In contest the more famous O.S, Seen Windows, Mac You add “Ubuntu Fortress” to Of the .icio.usYou add “Ubuntu Fortress” redditYou add “Ubuntu Fortress” to TechnoratiYou add “Ubuntu Fortress” to Stumble UponYou add “Ubuntu Fortress” to DiggitaYou add “Ubuntu Fortress” to Wikio

Kde 4,1 RC1

We are to the final struck ones of a lot yearned for Kde 4.1. Today it has been released the RC1 (release candidates 1) through the testing of which the sviluppatori head for the correction of “get worm-eaten” remained. To say the truth the famous bug is only and regards the Nvidia cards that introduce remarkable rallentamenti during the resize and the switching of the windows. However the problem would have to be resolved to short with the release of new driver from Nvidia. kde4trunk1.png

The installation of this development release can happen through the usual compilation from sources (kdesvn-build…), or with the packages precompiled already present in the repo of distro the more important. As an example on Opensuse 11 enough at this point famous one one-click-install in order to install the kde4-base, while for Debian it is necessary to follow the instructions to this link and for Kubuntu Hardy it must insert in sources.list the following line: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu hardy main and to make sure itself of to have installed the package kubuntu-kde4-desktop.
At last the liveCD based here on Opensuse.
Sapete a thing? I prefer kdesvn-build, the compilation is more thrilling and sure important under the didactic aspect. In short a lot is learned, has the possibility to appreciate the enormous job carried out from the team of sviluppatori and, perhaps, but here the varialbili stretch to ±°, avoid also the usual sfilza of insulsaggini shot from “tester” of the last hour. Not found?
