Hey guys

I've got a ThinkPad W700 and I've been using Karmic on it since its release. I finally got around to really tweaking the TrackPoint's settings.

ThinkWiki describes how to configure TrackPoint using a variety of methods. However the article is a little out of date, incomplete, and confusing.

WPA connection on demand - Mini HowTo for UBUNTU users

I put this guide together while being on extensive travels. In many occasions, I got connected through the router using WPA/WPA2 certification program, using PSK mode (pre-shared key), which is the method prevailing to obsoleted WEP. You can find more info on WPA at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Protected_Access, as going into further details is beyond the scope of this article. I do not cover the installation of the driver as well, so make sure you have it up and running before you go any further. Google is your friend here. The main purpose of this mini how-to is to put across the most straightforward and simplest way to establish quick connection on demand. It is fairly easy under Linux, if you are not scared of typing commands in terminal window. I found it more flexible, and far more easy than any GUI application (wpa_gui, for example).

Hi,

I looked around for a tutorial on this but couldn't find one. So I wrote this myself. This setup worked for me. Hope it works for you too. Let me know if you face any issues.

UBUNTU PXE BOOT INSTALLATION

Ubuntu is usually installed on a system using a Live CD. Another method of installing it is over the network! PXE stands for Preboot eXecution Environment which is an environment for booting the Ubuntu installer off the network.

1) Introduction

Here's a longish guide to unlock, root and run Debian on your Nexus One.

It's based on various guides and forum posts around (see embedded links), but with more details, with some missing pieces and corrected mistakes, all compiled into a (hopefully) newb-friendly step by step guide.

We had an OP who had gotten a little carried away with removing old kernels via Synaptic .. Yeah, you're well ahead of me on this one

Took a little while, and a couple of attempts.. But, this works.. As just as it was written, we had another OP who'd aborted an upgrade to Media after installing the RT kernel, they got his 'normal' kernel back as well. May help someone else

Easy Way To Sync Your iPhone & iPod touch In Ubuntu

Like WebUpd8 reader StoneCut said in a comment on it's previous tip, he wrote yet another post for iPhone & iPod touch owners which use Linux. So here it is:

In our previous tutorial we showed how you to access the iPhone & iPod touch OS 3.x filesystem and read/write to its music database using iFuse and by compiling our own libgpod4. Then we had to create a file on the iPhone & iPod touch, manually mount the iPhone & iPod touch each time and so on. Maybe a bit complicated for an average user.
