Tablet PC guidance
by Haworth, Michael A. 02 Mar '11

02 Mar '11

I have recently acquired an older tablet PC (Acer TravelMate C100). I am looking to create a mobile workpad out of it as a proof of concept for some upcoming projects... I have Xubuntu installed on it (Fedora threw a temper-tantrum because of the limited RAM) and it is recognizing the stylus, but when I rotate the screen into tablet mode the touchpad and stylus inputs freak out - is there any way to tell the two of them to rotate their inputs by 90 degrees (I am probably just not seeing the correct control)? I am hoping to bring it on Wed. to the LUG meeting to see if I can get some more accomplished with it.

I may have posted this a while back, but we're still looking for a Senior Linux Admin for our team at Adknowledge. If you or someone you know is a Sr Linux Admin, please feel free to contact me or go to http://www.adknowledge.com/careers and fill out the online application (if you put me in as a reference I can skip you past a couple steps of the process). Let me know if you apply so I can watch for the resume. We're a fast moving linux team, we've been in the news recently for our acquisitions, funding and size of our market (4th largest online advertiser). It's a fun place to work. We pay good people well. Lunches catered twice a week, beer fridge at 5:30, team events, etc. Not sure what else to list, but if you have any questions feel free to email me directly. Glenn

Sprint 3G/4G Overdrive Mobile Hotspot
by Jim Herrmann 21 Jan '11

21 Jan '11

I got my Overdrive hotspot tonight, and I promised to write up an impression. So far, it's so so. I had to charge it all the way before it would come on. That's OK as it charged pretty fast. I followed the start up instructions and got the network and password changed, the software updated, no problem. The web interface is pretty nice. When it first came up it would only connect to 3G. I had to get into the setup and tell it to connect to 4G Only, and then it found a 4G connection. I started doing bandwith tests at speedtest.net using the KCMO server. The first one was pretty miserable, at 0.73MB up and 0.48MB down. That was lame. I put the modem in the window a little further, and I got it to do 1.3M up and 0.92 down. I plugged it in and the speed jumped to 3.5M down but 0.6M up. So, it really helps to have it plugged in and in the window. I'll let you know more once I try it out in some various locations. OBTW, I tested my RR connection to compare and I got 4.5M down, but only 0.29M up. So the 4G is better on the upload. That's all for now, Jim

4G Cards
by Jim Herrmann 18 Jan '11

18 Jan '11

What Spring 4G cards work with Linux? I am making the bold assumption that there must be someone on here that knows this off the top of their head. :-) It appears that 3G is well supported, albeit with some USB tweaks. But I'm not hopeful from what I've found for drivers getting 4G speeds being supported on Linux. Help me choose. Thanks, Jim
