recently it got harder to resist... the upcoming Ubuntu 7.10 GustyGutsy Gibbon is just sexier than i can imagine... now it is

i think people who follow and keep track on the nokia Internet Tablet development have already got used to the Hildonized tablet desktop. It is something that you and i will see on Linux Mobile platform too (ubuntu Mobile i think). But at the same time, there are actually work to get your common (or favourite?) desktop environment on the tablet...

This page will be the general collections of my Linux how-tos. Once some contents can form its own category, then i will split it :) else you should find everything here :)

So here you will find a summary of what i gather from the wiki and forums to achieve what i need.

having my holidays now, i think i better use my time wisely besides playing kdice on and off :) so today i took some time and decided to browse some drupal modules to know them better. reason? to understand the power of drupal and to be able to use them when needed.

some modules that catched my attention are as follows:

1. DHtml_menu

2. Category

moving to opensync brought me some hope in getting Series 60 phones to sync with linux desktops. It was pretty hard to find working solution to sync nokia phones (was having a Nokia 6260) and i have always thought it is impossible to do so, until i found this thread in ubuntuforums.org. It is somehow mentioned that the E series can be sync'ed using opensync. This got me pretty curious :)

when i say tablet, i mean the Nokia 770. :)

please come back soon for a brief (p)review on the wonderful Canola running on maemo platform. It is scheduled to be released on 29th November 2006. Please be patient :)

today reading from the nokia 770 tableteer's feeds, and realised that an update for the IT OS 2006 was released on 3th November. being me, the next thing is to grab the update image and install :) so far it took me around 20 minutes to get things up and my network configured. for those who wants the link, here is the news release, and you can go download from the image page. If you need info on how to flash your Nokia 770, read this.

after days of patience training, the day i've been waiting for since weeks is here. Today Ubuntu released Edgy Eft.

for download of iso, i propose to use the torrent file. Then you can also help to distribute the iso to others who might need it from a computer near (or not near) you . For Upgraders (like me), check out the upgrade instructions.

so i'm off to my alternate and normal iso download. see you soon :)

being told by byte, i quickly went searching and found it: Gizmo project on Nokia 770! if you have not heard of Gizmo, it is just like what you understand with Skype:
