That's cool. I'm all for hobbyist projects like that. However I wouldn't know where to start. You should try searching for the phone to see if anyone else has tried to install Linux on it.
Why not try and use WICD? The gui is wicd-gtk but there is a commandline curses client that you can use by installing the wicd-curses package.
From the WICD man page:
Judging by the specs you gave I highly doubt that installing Linux on your Razr is going to be worth the time and effort.
If you want to install ANY operating system on anything at all you need to...
What are the specs for the phone? That would be a good place to start.
Hello all. I upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10. The upgrade manager reported errors so I restarted, did a dpkg --configure -a, and my touchpad wasn't working. I am using a Lenovo Ideapad Z560. The...
:roll: google is your friend.
Thanks. It seems to work well. However, since I have two sound cards I needed to add index=0 to the end of that line. Now the intel sound card is the primary one.
Oddly enough, the external...
The problem wasn't present when I had archlinux installed on the machine. It is definitely a hardware driver issue but I haven't really been on top of it.
As of now I'm using nixos as my primary...
Remember that its a workaround. The problem isn't really "solved" but rather avoided.
See this post. If you don't want to do that you can use a workaround. In /etc/modprobe.d/ directory make a file called touchpad.conf. Add the line "options psmouse proto=imps" and restart your...
I'm not going to go away mad. I'm just a tad bit disappointed. I listed all the necessary information but i've been unable to find the answer via google.
Update: I'm still having issues with my headset. Is there no one here that can help?
Update: I solved the video card issue by manually getting the drivers from the NVidia website. I had to deactivate existing nvidia drivers via the "hardware drivers" application and then reactivate...
By systems programming I was referring to low-level programs like kernels and other aspects of operating system design.
This all seems very interesting. Thank you all for replying. I'm still...
What? No haskell? Everything you need to learn about this fabulous purely-functional language can be found at the main site.
A great beginner's tutorial can be found here: learn you a haskell!
What are they? I'm a computer science major and I love functional programming. I'm currently trying to learn haskell and common lisp. From my understanding, functional programming does away with...
Making your own distro from scratch is downright painful. Unless you want to make it based off an already existing distribution. Check out Linux from Scratch so you can get some insight on what it...
Cloud computing uses the internet to provide resources. In other words, if you want to use Ubuntu all you'd need is high speed internet. Your data would be stored on the cloud and all operating...
Bump. Anyone? I could really use the assistance.
I'm positive that my touchpad is elantech. I never said that my solution was a permanent one but it works. Either way, I don't really care because my touchpad works fine. I can scroll up and down,...
I'm on Xubuntu 10.04 and nearly everything is working perfectly. However, I have run into some issues. I tried to incorporate as much useful information as possible.
Sound: There are some issues...
I have the same touchpad on my Lenovo Ideapad Z560. What worked for me was the following:
sudo rmmod psmouse
sudo modprobe psmouse proto=imps
In order to make the change permanent you must...
