1) Keyboard:Not all function keys works, the most important ones do like lcd brightness, sound and the disable trackpad one
2) DVD-RW: Works but I have a really bad performance. It could be the same thing that affects my desktop and is a pretty common thing on intel chipset
3) Card Reader: Works with SDHC (High Capacity), tested on microSDHC 4GB (with adapter)
4) W-LAN: Toshiba suggests not needed modifications, for me it worked out of the box
5) Bluetooth ref: Ubuntu Forums
On toshibas bluetooth is switched off by default on boot. It can be switched on by an acpi call that is pretty easy to make in windows ( press a button ) but not in linux , omnibook make things much easier. First you will need some packages to grab the source from svn and to compile it.

$ sudo apt-get install subversion build-essential linux-source linux-headers-generic
Then you can check the svn source and compile
$ cd ~
$ mkdir omnibook
$ cd omnibook
$ svn co https://omnibook.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/omnibook/omnibook/trunk
$ cd trunk
$ make
$ sudo make install

The A300 is not directly supported by omnibook module so we have to force it with proper options

$ sudo depmod -a
$ sudo modprobe omnibook ectype=12

after this bluetooth should work, if you want to load the module on boot make a file called omnibook.modprobe in /etc/modprobe.d/ with the following line:
options omnibook ectype=12 userset=1

and then you can finally add “omnibook” in /etc/modules

There’s a bug in Ubuntu that make you unable to receive files ( toshiba side is all working, the bug is in the bluez-utils package) , downgrading is a solution

6) Suspend/Hibernation: I had problem with the xorg drivers. After installing Ati Binary drivers it worked liked a charm , I’m very happy for this.Edit: after waking up from hibernation the bluetooth system is disabled for some reasons. “echo 1>/proc/omnibook/bluetooth” will do the job.

7 Wired Lan:
rmmod sky2
cd /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/kernel/drivers/net
cp -p sky2.ko{,.orig}
perl -pe 's/\0\0\x6c\x43/\0\0\x55\x43/g' sky2.ko.orig > sky2.ko
Note

I feel that with the newer bios ( 14/07 ) things work better, the fan is less noisy for example

  • Media Server: it serves the content on the network
  • Media Renderer: it renders the content served by a media server

So I actually needed both on my gentoo linux.

Probably the easiest way to browse content served by upnp servers is djmount , it works as a FUSE file system ( that can be mounted by a normal user) and it looks for all the upnp devices in a network. It works very well even with content provided by Windows Vista (or better from the Media Player that comes with windows vista). You create a directory and simply “djmount it”, in that directory there will be other subdirectories , one for each media server you have in your network.

Easy and working but not that cool, I mean…all this new stuff and , in the end, I still have to browse directories. I’m not using these new things just because I don’t want to plug in an usb cable, I’m not that lazy. So I went searching in various forums another solution.

MediatombMy first choice as media server was ushare, somehow connected to the geexbox project but it had its limitation, one above all that it doesn’t read tags, so when you copy a music file to another device you must retag it manually. Another problem was the init script that didn’t work that well and I didn’t have time/will to fix it. Mediatomb seems the definitive choice to me, it seems a nice project, it reads metadata and has a built in sqlite backend. (you can use mysql too but i don’t have the server on my box). Mediatomb has a webserver you can connect to and you can add/delete content to your share and chose how to rescan your library , you can chose inotify on that ( if you are using beagle you should already have inotify in your kernel).

When it goes to the Media Renderer it seems that there is not much choice yet, but there is some and in particular there is gmediarenderer from the GNU guys. GmediaRender , as the names says, it’s able to render content served from a MediaServer, it needs gstreamer as a backend for all the codecs (it actually uses gstreamer to render the stream ). If you have gmediarender running you can simply go to your nokia N95 media player , chose a song and in options chose “execute on personal network” ( or something like that) and your computer (not the phone) will sound. You can do the same for videos or pictures.

RhythmboxWhat about coherence? I have it installed and the rhythmbox plugins actually works , I can see my N95 and browse its contents but you can’t (yet) make rhythmbox work as a MediaRenderer. Coherence is supposed to be a full UPNP solution with its server, renderer and controller but the people who develop it are very good in making Youtube videos but not that good to explain the world “how the hell that damn thing works”.

What is missing? On my nokia I can chose to copy or move stuff to my personal network, I can’t do it and don’t know what part of this upnp mess should provide this feature.

]]> http://www.lucagasperini.com/blog/2008-nokia-n95-and-upnp/feed/ 5 Gnome 2.18 http://www.lucagasperini.com/blog/2007-gnome-218/ http://www.lucagasperini.com/blog/2007-gnome-218/#comments Fri, 01 Jun 2007 15:05:21 +0000 gas http://www.lucagasperini.com/blog/2007-gnome-218/ E’ da un paio di settimane che sto su gnome 2.18 2.18.1 e anche se masked sul mio sistema è stabile quanto il 16 se non di più.
In gnome 2.16 nautilus dava un po di problemi , dal famoso “incrozzarsi e riavvio” al ” io decido da solo che non hai i diritti per cancellare il file anche se non è vero” ; nel 2.18 non sembrano esserci più.

Per il resto ho individuato ( come sempre ) un po di pro e un po di contro.
Fra i pro metterei il guadagno in velocità e la maggior reattività, fra i contro spicca la furba scelta di togliere il backend per xine e di usare solo gstreamer 0.10 con una serie di menate tipo tirare avanti con la rotella o trovarsi il play che diventa “vai avanti a rallentatore”, togliere xine e usare quel cesso di gstreamer per i video è stato un bell’errore.
