Motorola is Back (India)....

Missing Motorola after A1600 release ( with Linux OS), but
now it is back with Motorola MileStone with following
specification:

ANDROID OPERATING SYSTEM - Android 2.1
Camera: 5 MP Dual LED Flash
3G WCDMA/900/2100, GSM 850/900/1800/1900, HSPA, GPRS Class 12, WiFi
BATTERY TYPE - 1400 mAh Li Ion
DISPLAY TYPE - TFT
WEIGHT - 165 g (heavy)
SIZE 60.00 x 115.80 x 13.70 mm
DISPLAY SIZE 3.7"; WVGA (480 x 854 pixels); 16:9 widescreen; PPI 267
PROCESSOR SPEED - 550 MHz (Slow)
Buy cost is ~32,000 INR, which seems too costly when we
compare with latest Sony Ericsson X10. X10 with
almost same price provide more feature, almost all
feature with 1Ghz, which make phone future-proof
(minimum for few months at least).
you can check compare at GSMarena
But it seems motorola is back (which I like more than
other phone brand, it is first brand to bring Linux phone
in India E6)

N900 with Punjabi support....

I got N900 for Testing Punjabi on it.
While need to install fonts, I was not
clear about rendering after installing
fonts. it is based on Maemo Linux, so
you can install/use application easily

After install openssl-client/server,
scp lohit-punjabi fonts from fedora
machine to N900 and 'fc-cache',
run 'fennec'.


While after reboot, I can see the
Punjabi in mail and other places
(no interface translation available yet).
Most Important thing was Rendering,
which is just working and good enough
to use. fonts was installed on N810, but
there is Punjabi Rendering was broken


More Screenshot you can check here

from i18n Point of view, following task with status:
---
-Fonts- Working - Need to package
-Rendering - Working - Nothing to Done
-Input - Need to Work - Need to Package
---

Now Android:
No Indian Language is supported as such, but

got a chance to check Samsung Galaxy Spica

It has Hindi Interface, but Rendering broken.
Same as Apple iPhone.

Now it seems Nokia should work fast, but less
hard to provide Indian language as Rendering is
working and just installing fonts can
help to enable support.

Intel i7-720QM and Core 2 Duo Difference...

While searching for latest, faster Mobile processor,
I just stuck for Intel's Latest Intel i7-720QM.
Surely it seems quite good, but how much from
currently with me? (Intel Core to Duo P8600 and
Intel Core to Duo P9600)
Few Differnce you can get with i7 vs C2D are
following:

Processor Number	P9600	P8600	i7-720QM
No. of Cores	2	2	4
No. of Threads	2	2	8
Processor Base Frequency	2.66 GHz	2.4 GHz	1.6 GHz
Max Turbo Frequency			2.8 GHz
Cache	6 MB L2 Cache	3 MB L2 Cache	6 MB Intel® Smart Cache
Bus/Core Ratio		9.0
Bus Type	FSB	FSB	DMI
System Bus	1066 MHz	1066 MHz	2.5 GT/s
FSB Parity	No	No
Max TDP	25 W	25 W	45 W

Processing Die Size	107 mm2	107 mm2	296 mm2
No of Processing Die Transistors	410 million	410 million	774 million

Intel® Turbo Boost Technology	No	No	Yes
Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology	No	No	Yes
Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x)	Yes	Yes	Yes
Intel® Trusted Execution Technology	Yes	Yes	Yes
AES New Instructions			No

i7 based laptop has hal battery life than P8600.

Dell is start selling Laptop with i7 processor, while Intel is going to release
i5 and i3 Mobile Q1 2010.

Maemo 5 on Desktop

I was trying to get Maemo 5 device, but
finally I got easy method to install it on
desktop machine with help of instruction
over here.

I am working to find a way to include Punjabi (and other
Indic) language to device. Few steps I completed:
Locale-Extras - Updated all Indic locale files
Indic - Project to include all i18n stuff for Indic languages
Keyboard Layout - Virtual/On-Screen Keyboard (which has no Indic support yet)

still I am not able to add my language in it, but find few things
different from my desktop machine:
/usr/share/i18n-locale-resolver/
more time required to work on this, but I have next Internet
connection in coming weeks.
This system setup on Ubuntu AMD64. Often forgot to
put variable vdso32=0 for kernel at boot time.

Intel Inside out - Now in US

Another News about Intel's GREAT Success
story to remain Big in market.
This News from US (previous from EU),
where State of New York file case against
Intel to pay money to AMD.
HP is second in line not to Do or Delay
release for AMD.
Dell as my personal experience, they are
not selling direct AMD, only through
Phone and salesman will let you know
various short-comes in AMD deals, provide
better deals in Intel only (this is India's story).

if you remember EU's fine to Intel (around 3.45 billion in May),
Intel reply them with various reasons, but final
reply from EU you can read here
So, this is Intel's Inside story, US prepared
after EU, but I am not sure about my country
whether they will start find wrong business
deals or not as Intel may pay more money now
to politician or Officers than EU/US.:-)

Fedora Rawhide installation with Basic Video driver...

Installation on AMD Chipset 785 Failed (Fedora Bug)
with Default GUI, so Tried with Basic Video driver
(during Boot option), GUI installation started, even it
was not good, but working,

after installation, it was not showing proper
resolution on my Monitor, display was not good.
/etc/X11/xorg.conf file was showing 'vesa' display
driver, if you need to get proper working xserver,
then need to remove that file and just reboot,
it will be automatic detected and work fine.

Fedora Rawhide bug for HP Touchsmart tx2z

as Default installation is not working for fedora
Rawhide installation (as posted previous post).

Finally going by proper way, I started to search
bug for this laptop, so there was two basic
bug, which helped to file a new bug
1) Linuxwacom need to Update

and
2) Not specific bug for HP wacom, but good detail

2nd Bug helped me a lot to File bug. Hope that
Fedora Developer will help me (not like Novell guy)
to complete the support for this. But all is the future.

HP Tx2z Bug filed here (HP Tx2z Touch screen is not automatically work)

Let me try BlackBerry once...

Finally Got BlackBerry Set (8520) after various
attempt Failed to fix Nokia 97. It is latest phone
with No 3G, but all other Features like
Music Player
GPRS/EDGE/Wi-fi
and other BlackBerry Feature, for which it is known far.

it is only for Airtel in India, and I have Airtel sim,
so tried, Phone is working, but Email and Messenger
Is not working, because it is need to active with Service
Provider and Sat/Sun it is not possible.

I liked the Trackpad Navigation and Multimedia Feature,
also Security, (other phone has, but not enabled by
default, but it has).

Place Call without Unlock the Screen is another feature
I liked.

you can get your (user) information on left side of screen
very easily and looks good

Keypad is quite Good, but surely you can't compare it with
Nokia N97.
Download application and without Email Setup, it seems
empty, Will update later how it behaves after getting it
activied with Aitel,

Only One Theme is provided (it is quite good), and Camera
without Flash are few more things, which I like to improve,
but this lowest cost handset, so what else can expect:)

Speed of handset (for opening and call support) is quite good
as compared to Buggy Nokia N97. Some timeN97 crash,
during call hanged (1 out of 9-10) (I have updated v12 Software,
but still problems). Nokia Service centre asked me
to Fresh install (or Flash content), but how can I do that, not
want to loose any data. I moved to BlackBerry and asked
myself 'let me try blackberry once..'

Opensuse/Novell - say 'no' to update Sax2 for Tx2z

After trying to install Fedora Rawhide,
which finally work for touch interface,

I tried to install opensuse 11.2 MileStone 7
on HP Tx2z (AMD Laptop), which failed to
detect Touch Interface, although
installation was quite easy and working
most of thing.

Sax2 failed to detect tough, even I tried to
configure myself, but failed with all tries.

Put a bug for OpenSUSE, it goes to
Novell finally. I got some quick replay
as expected, but finally refused with

"You're right. SaX2 does not support the configuration of it
and this won't change unless we receive a request by HP to do so + the appropriate hardware for testing. WONTFIX."

This not big thing if proprietary, but open-source,
this should not happen if people can help to test it.

guy provided a link for Ubuntu to try it.
Thanks for link, but not working at all:-)

HP Touch Tx2z and Fedora ...

Finally I got AMD Based Laptop and it is
Touch Screen Display, which is quite good
for Windows Vista (Pre-installed), but Windows
Vista was too slow to use (most of Junk
Softwares, thanks to HP).
Finally I installed Windows 7 RC and Speed is quite good,
but not equal to Dell Studio XPS 13 with Intel
Core 2 Duo P8600 (2.4Ghz) (HP has DDR2
and Dell has DDR3) even difference is
not big enough to feel in first look.

My Final Target to get install Fedora or Linux
on HP tx2z, first I tried Fedora 11 (x86_64), which
install quite easy and during installation pointer
moved by touching the screen, but Click
was not working.
Fedora 11 installed, pointer moved, but
Click was not working. Finally Upgrade
that to rawhide (Fedora 12 pre-release),
but that is NOT Working at all. Even wonder
was that there was no /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
at all. But GUI was working. with
system-config-display, xorg.conf file generated
To Fix the issue, I used Ubuntu Website,
where they fixed Xorg.conf file to fix issue
Following Steps I used for it

1) /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/10-wacom.fdi

 
   
     
      wacom
      stylus
     
   
 

Changed to

2) N-trig Symlink
edit (create New file)

/etc/udev/rules.d/90-n-trig.rules 

and add following line

KERNEL=="event*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="1b96", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0001", SYMLINK="input/n-trig"

(ya, I have not developed, but all step are from Ubuntu site, for Detail
instruction you can visit here)

Just for Information: I have Windows 7 Firmware Updated.

Next testing I would like to go for OpenSUSE, which has
ability to configure Touch Screen Dispaly within YaST, while
Fedora Has Nothing for try.

Fingerprint reader I failed to Configure in Windows 7 as well
as in Fedora Rawhide. Work continue if get some fix.

Linux (fedora) - HDMI Port

I purchased HDMI Cable, but not very
sure about it whether it will work or not
with my LCD TV. Cost was very ok
799/- Rs.

Windows Vista working very nice,
no problem.

with Fedora 11, It was not detected,
I have Nvidia chipset on Laptop and Desktop
with HDMI port on both.
So 'nouveau' driver is not able to work.
Finally install 'kmod-nvidia' and run
nvidia-setting, it works well. Detected
proper resolution and you can set as
primary Display.

for Audio (with HDMI cable), go to
Speaker Icon in notification icon.
ICON->Sound Pref->Hardware
-Profile->Output Digital Stereo (HDMI) and
that is it. It is working...

Video, Voice and All fine with Fedora.

Linux and Windows Vista SP2

from last week, I was trying to install Windows Vista SP2,
but it was failed after more than 1 hours Stages (1,2,3) due
to unknown error. Finally I tried to download EXE file instead
for 'Windows Update' setting. it gave some error, which
can be searched.

Error Number: x80004005

Microsoft has page about, but seems not interested to Fix it soon.
(M$ told like "...alternative is to perform a clean-install)
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/971204/

Finally search a below given workaround with help of google.

Step: 1 Remove Grub, only M$ Windows MBR

Fix MBR for remove Grub and install Windows in MBR
with following:

1) boot from Windows Vista DVD

2) Repair

3) Use 'Command Prompt'

4) bootrec /fixboot

5) bootrec /fixmbr

yes, now your system boot only with Windows and Update Windows
and your machine will update for Windows Vista Service Pack 2.

Step: 2 - install Grub again

Now it is time for fix Linux (Fedora). Boot system with Linux (Fedora)
Installation Disk and go to 'Rescue Mode'. Use following command
when get console:

1) $ grub

2) grub> root (hd0,2) (where 2 is my /boot parition /dev/sda3))

3) grub> setup (hd0)

4) grub> setup (hd0,2)

So, now Windows Vista SP2 install and linux is working.

Dell XPS 13 and Fedora

Day before yesterday I got one Dell studio XPS 13
Machine
with
intel core 2 duo
2.4. 3M L2, FSB 1066Mhz, NVIDIA^® Hybrid SLI graphics,
4GB 1067MHz DDR3, Slot Load 8X max DVD+/-RW, Backlit Keyboard.

While Feodra 10 is latest release, I want rawhide 64-bit (29April2009 build) to use.
Installation was quick (remove various packages) and smooth. After
install,
*) graphics was working only 1280x768 (machine has 1280x800).
(fixed with help of Fedora Solved site)
Machine has 2 Graphics care (detected also), but working only
GeForce 9400M G, (while 256MB NVIDIA® GeForce® 9500M-GE is not used)

*) Sound was working without any issue.

*) First warning after login, I got following error "Harddisk is failing..."

(Default installation provide 'gnome-disk-utility', which notify this error)

It was (and is) showing that airflow-temperature was more then 'worse'.
I was not able to do anything for this:-(

*) Webcam is working with cheese

*) Hibernate Failed to get X server (with kmod-nvidia driver) and
need to reboot
Note: Nivida Proprietary driver (NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-180.51-pkg2.run) help to work hibernate (check later post).

*) Battery status (with gnome-power-manger) is not working. It was not showing Battery discharge/charge status or Plug or un-plug A/C adopter.
Fixed: After first time complete discharge, now it is working fine. and showing
status correctly

Overall it was working fine with Linux. Graphics fix is easy, Hibernate (use nvidia 's driver),
Battery status notification (fixed) are Major issue with (kmod-nvidia) driver.

sound problem (fixed) - ASUS M3A78-EM

After installation of openSUSE 11.1, sound was not
tested. Today when run, it shows error like no
sound card working. While using yast, it failed to
configure it with error "module snd_hda_intel"
not found. Various forum, mailing list, there
was various method, but my problem was strange
with 'module not found'. I was not able to find
how to find module.
------
$lspci
00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)
------
Finally I find that alsa-driver package was not
installed on system from Alsa Project.

Download, Compile and install.
finally
$modprobe snd_hda_intel
works and with reboot sound works fine.
later found package "alsa-driver-kmp-pae" for same
work. This was small fix after I found pacakge:-)

Linux Phone Manager and My Phone

I used windows for my Phone to take backup and
update contacts. (This will be one of two
reasons to use, other is Phone Software Update).

Today I found a application on linux. It was quite cool.
Command Line based "GAMMU".
it worked better than my expections, Even
my Nokia 5800 is not working other than "Info"
mode, but N82 is fine.

Gammu has a Phone Database.
I put my entry here and
filled a bug here

Starting response is good and hope to fix in coming version.

Yes, it has GUI ("Wammu"),
Contact Editor and Other Screenshot

It has Windows GUI also (not used yet).

Hope it will fix soon and able to work with Nokia 5800.

AMD CodeAnalyst - Open Source -> Intel

Today I have got chance to attend AMD CodeAnalyst.
This is tool used to complete their mission "Code Faster, Faster Code".
yes, if you first time read this line, you may not understand fully, but
read twice and you will get it.

It is GUI, where it is using Linux oprofiler as Base and in Windows
has other (really I don't know and get when that Guy told).

Detailed documentation is available at Above Website,
I just like to highlight what I noted from this.

->Priority Changed from Windows Based CodeAnalyst to
Platform independent, while Manager Changed about
3 year back.
-> Project started around 1996-97.
->Windows Version is advance than Linux
(new feature introduce in Windows GUI, backport to
Linux GUI)
-> Qt Toolkit is used as it is more platform independent.
-> Linux GUI - QT -3
-> WIndows GUI - QT -4
-> AMD developers are more Open and want
participate in OSS and also want contribution for their projects.

BAD:
-> all RHEL5.1 and Fedora's Binary and Source Package (RPM as
well as .tar.gz) for CodeAanalyst Failed to run (although installed
but not able to Run properly
--Error was like---
program was searching something in /dev/virt/2 and /dev/virt/3,
while RHEL5 kernel only has 0 and 1, so failed during 'Run' binary
files. (while working on his machine)
------
-> Not a Single machine having AMD processor in whole workshop
-> AMD Indian Developer's idea to make joke of people, who
asked him about Hardware, while he was Software guy. This
point made me unhappy with some "Great Developers" as they
thought people are mad, but those always failed to understand
that "Someone really knows you: AMD is processor!!!" Is this not big thing?
This is attitude, which is common between in Asian people, while
surely you will not found in other.
-> Main Developer was not very sure about Other processors other than
AMD. It is ok if you think from one angle, but I always felt
bad if you only know and test your product only. How can
you improve if you don't know competitor's product, specially
when you are trying to make new product for "ALL Platforms"??
(same view about Operating system, how can I know that
something works "better" on Linux, until I knows about some
other OS).

At last, I was not very statisified with Workshop as
Product was not working on RHEL platform and I was
able to use it properly.
I got something, not AMD pen drive and T-Shirt, but
Desire to work with AMD CodeAnalyst and yes, to
use AMD processor in my future buy-list computers.

(now my car has on AMD Turian processor (hanging
in mirror and AMD Pen Drive to Listen music in Car)

I have promise to keep...

It was bad, too bad that after fixing an issue
on 2th of May, I got to know that it's DVD-RW
it was not working. I was shocked, why not working?

I was really upset and called Apple Support Center
instead fixing it from Locall reseller (RSG)
which already fix some issue and make a new one.

Technical support Engineer asked all posibiility to
Fix the issue and finally he said to visit to RSG
again, I refused to visit as they waste lot of time
and not actually work on issue. I asked him
to replace Laptop instead of fix it (because
after a Repair how can a brand new thing can be
call "New" more, if it is fixed 2 times).
He aggreed with me and forward my call to Customer Service
department in Austrila. She was nice worker, asked
me to give address and ensure that it will be replace.
(call was on 8May Thursday). so plan was to pick
up old hardware on Monday and back within 1 week.
I was happy.
Friday 9May, I got call from Apple Courier department
about detailed process. He told that pick up take one
week and after that it will take 3 week to get back
new laptop to you. I was little worry about this
Big Time period as I know that Company offen
take max time limit (as Dell told me to deliver
Monitor in minimum 1 week, but I got it on 3 day).

Monday 11 May, I was waiting for Call, but No call
even upto 5PM. Finally Courier person Came directly
to home and pick this. (Cool 1 promise kept!)

Thursday 15 May, I mailed on her again to get
update about courier and update Address. I got
NO reply. Now I was worring it.

Monday 18 May, I was waiting for it (although
I should not as per consulted by Apple).

Tuesday 19 May, I had not hope to get today, but
my New Laptop with Courier company. Guy brought
that with him and asked about Tax to pay, I asked
him that it will be paided by Apple India as
it was replacement and I already paid all Tax, when I
bought Laptop. So he took it back and asked to wait
for 1-2 days.

don't know when I will get back from Courier company,
but one thing was sure that Apple keep its
2nd promise also (it was better than my
expection).

Yes, it is 'royal APPLE'.

Mac - Hardware issue - Fixed in 8 days

last week, I have very painfull time as New macbook undergone a mjaor breakdown.
Screen was showing content for few seconds and then disappear. day by day, it was going to be worse.
I took to Imagine Apple Store (only store for Apple product), they said Engineer was not available all day, but surely they will help to fix this. I called Apple help over phone, he asked few question and finally with some testing, he confirmed that it is Hardware issue and asked to visit same store. Next Day I visited over there and
now they checked it. Engineer confirmed that it is hardware issue and asked to me to take machine with myself. I was bit surprised, but feel good about this. He suggested that if it is fixable issue, then he will otherwise, new laptop will be provide (but at evening he cleared that it will repairable issue, so only repaired).
I called Apple Technical support again
(want to ask why my machine is going to replace, why Repaired), English Gentleman cleared that if you comlaint within 10 days, then only we are able to replace in India, otherwise repaired. I was bit late (on 12th day, I asked to store for repair).

Any way yesterday, Engineer called me and asked to bring laptop. I took to store around 1PM, He started work on it. LCD need to replace. I was sitting over there for 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 Hours. "Sir, we are working. it very complex structure. this
is, that is" but finally at 9, it was fixed and
I took it with me, now working fine.
(but this is my view that company like Royal Apple, should replace, not repair, even it is working fine, but Stantard and value goes down with opening body. This is for Dell, HP and all other world, but not for Apple
