Drivers for eComStation

2010-03-02 01:29:48 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [ecomstation.ru]

Current state of development (2010/03):

• The development of AHCI driver was started. What can you do today? Share the information which notebooks (SATA-controllers) can't be switched to compatible mode.
• Panorama VESA - Lars ans Steven fixed the trap in GRADD + the research of MTRR continues - the users of i3/i5/i7 CPUs got significant increase of video output (bug-report 2582, bug-report 2755, bug-report 2755). The users of Panorama VESA can share information: which monitors+adapters work well in large video modes (1920x1080, etc)
• JFS.IFS - some bugs are fixed, there is work on reliability of the FS. What other developers can do? It's necessary create more disk tools.
• CUPS - Paul updated CUPS subsystem, drivers for Hewlett-Packard. What simple user can do? Test the driver, send report to Hardware database
• Genmac may be updated - source: Genmac forum, What you can do? You know how to run a network adapter in UNSUPPORTED mode, post the report to the site
• Uniaud - the 5-th attempt to accumulate Uniaud Matrix: let's collect reports which models of HDAudio work well with Uniaud v.X?
• ACPI - let's continue to accumulate the reports about ACPI (while no other database),
• USB-stack - it's necessary debug USB 2.0 before start of USB 3.0 development. What you can do? Report about problems with mouses, traps in USB drivers, for developers: which endpoints/interfaces don't work properly.

For Sale: A sporty laptop

2010-02-19 00:29:12 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [> http://www.os2world.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,63/topic,2151.msg14634/topicseen,1/#new]

Blonde Guy has prepared a sporty new laptop. Mobilopeep is small, yet powerful. Intended to be easy to travel with, Mobilopeep weighs 3 lbs, 3 oz and has a 12 inch screen that fits in places where larger laptops are awkward. Battery life is 5 hours with the extended battery.

Mobilopeep starts out as an IBM Thinkpad X41, then gets the maximum RAM and an UltraBase X4 docking station with an UltraBay Slim DVD/CD-RW drive. Then Blonde Guy installs a 64 GB solid state drive (SSD) for outstanding hard drive performance. At home, the dock connects to your monitor, keyboard and mouse (USB and PS/2 are both supported.) SNAP accelerated graphics supports both normal and wide screen monitors.

See the Blonde Guy Computers For Sale web page for more details and ordering information.

Blonde Guy Computers come with eCS installed and configured and many applications, including OpenOffice.org 3.11 and RSJ CD-Writer installed as well.

If you don't see what you want on the website, please tell me what you'd like to see when you buy your next eCS computer.
