I know, it seems crazy doesnt it!! I was really into gaming the first 3 years and just from my readings, Linux wasnt going to be an option for me to even consider. I think partly because I was a Windows groupie as well. At this point, I know it seems odd, my Hero has opened my eyes to newer things.

Used fedora, switched to Ubuntu and am trying out Linux mint right now starting to think I really enjoy Debian based distro's in general. Have been thinking about trying gentoo but i'm still a little afraid to take off the training wheels of the package manager and start comping from source.

Love the scene though, I've been using Linux on and off as each of the windows betas came out since I've been 13,

This is wrong. Slackware was created by Patrick Volkerding. I've used it since 1996.
[Hero CDMA General] pseudoremora:
No, its not.

The Official Release of Slackware Linux by Patrick Volkerding is an advanced Linux operating system, designed with the twin goals of ease of use and stability as top priorities. Including the latest popular software while retaining a sense of tradition, providing simplicity and ease of use alongside flexibility and power, Slackware brings the best of all worlds to the table. Originally developed by Linus Torvalds in 1991, the UNIX-like Linux operating system now benefits from the contributions of millions of users and developers around the world.

[Hero CDMA General] damageless:
The way I read that 2nd paragraph, it sounds like it is saying that Linux was created by Linus Torvalds, it isn't talking about Slackware.

Am I wrong?
[Hero CDMA General] kniteshift:
Lawyered.

You're right, Linus Torvalds wrote linux in 1991. Slackware:

Arch on my desktop, mint on my laptop. Arch is the best running.
[Hero CDMA General] pseudoremora:
Interpret the link and paragraph as you please. Quick frankly, the end result is going to be the same -- Linux.

Does Arch have a GUI or it all shell based?
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
Arch is build-it-yourself
[Hero CDMA General] dphase:
Correct. I was not trying to be an ass by pointing out Linus did not create Slackware, but I make a living due to Linux and I'd hate to see misinformation spread. That and Patrick was a good guy in the mid 90s when it came to supporting his distribution and responded to several emails from me during that time. He's also had a hard road the past few years (cancer). Yes, at the end of the day Linux is Linux, but correct credit should be given where it is due -- Slackware is and has always been his.
[Hero CDMA General] pseudoremora:
I know you weren't trying to be an ass, neither was I. I don't discredit Patrick for his work whatsoever, he's brilliant! Someone had argued against my point, thus I stated the source to my information. That's all. Miscommunication.

Gotcha, thanks! I've burned a tun of different lives CD's, will definitely will all of them a go.
[Hero CDMA General] obelisk79:
The Arch community is pretty good and the wiki guide to set it up is pretty easy to folow for those new to the distro.
[Hero CDMA General] flammenwurfer:
Arch on my desktop and netbook. Xubuntu on my boxee box.

Arch is like Linux heaven for me. You build the system you want from the get go. A noob could get it running given enough time, patience and good directions following. With a little linux experience it is a breath of fresh air and simplicity.

The wonderful thing is that tons software is installable with one simple command (pacman -S ). Everything in the repos is extremely up-to-date as well. If you want something obscure that is not in the repos or you want a beta or developmental build of something, it is probably in the AUR (Arch User Repo). If you have yaourt installed you can install anything in AUR with one simple command as well (yaourt -S).

As most people on this forum like to tinker and are pretty smart, I would highly recommend giving Arch a try. Only downside is you can't really try it out with a livecd because by default you have no gui. It's VERY easy to install whatever WM or DE you want though.

Yes it will work.

Why don't you concider buying a converter for better quality earpieces?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] SMF_12:
cant use it in phone calls tho??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] sirphunkee:
oops...no, I believe that one is only for stereo audio out...I didn't realize you wanted it for calls too :o

That one you first saw is probably your best bet, they'll all be close to that price. And, most any that you see that say they'll work with another HTC model should work fine on the Rhodium, as they all use the same USB headset protocol.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] SMF_12:
so HTC Tattoo will be ok to use then?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] SMF_12:
I forgot to give you all feedback on the item... the first one arrived but the LHS earpiece didnt work, so i sent him an email and he sent out a replacement, which arrived very quickly like the first one. so it work really well now, and is/was the cheapest on ebay :)

Im very happy with it.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SD2691:
I'm curious to figure out the problems with my G1 while it's charging. Maybe some of you wise folks on here can help me out...here's the deal:

When I plug in my G1 to the wall charger, swiping from screen to screen twitches, sometimes sticks, pushing something on-screen is a nightmare, usually results in something being pushed that I didn't push, browser becomes a disaster (zooming in and out when I push something on the webpage) .. basically my phone just spazzes out.

When it does these things, I can push the red call button to put it to "sleep" then I unplug the charger, and push Menu to bring it back alive, and the problems are gone.

The problems only occur while it's plugged in and charging.

I've had this phone for around 8 months now, never had this problem until around a month ago. Thank you to anyone that can help!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nila@ufl.edu:
Hi Guys,

In an effort to remap and not finding any software I wrote over my redial.exe program with a basic game and it worked. Double clicking the headset now opens that game. I'm not sure how this will affect other functions of the phone though, what else uses redialer.exe?

Secondly how could I make it so that whatever I put in the windows folder as this "redialer.exe" activates a specific action? In my case, I would like this to mute/unmute the call I am in.

Thirdly, any alternative suggestions to doing this, or to even editing the single click function on the headset? Thank you.

Nila
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] majorassface:
Nila, there are several apps out there that do something similar to this. Maybe you should look in to what they are doing and see if you can't modify it to your liking.

I went through this when my headset started randomly redialing people. I use audio manager headset tool and it will now play/pause on long press and ff on quick double press. Hope this helps!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nila@ufl.edu:
Besides the various programs I found that seemed to only deal with audio playback, this is the most promising program I found that would let me edit which programs are opened with the headset button functions.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=476412

The main thing I'm having trouble locating is how to make a shortcut to the in-call mute function. Does that require a mortscript? Thanks.

Nila
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] majorassface:
It would probably require a simple mortscript, there is a list of commands for in-call/phone functions I saw floating around a while ago. I did a search but can't seem to find it. I'm pretty sure I saw it on xda though!

In the market, google earth is out , search com.google.earth

But its for 2.1 devices, any way to get this on 1.6?

Direct download here http://bit.ly/9ArPbS
[G1 Android Development] Daneshm90:
Apparently ppl have tried using edited build.prop. It crashes on load since its relying on 2.1 frameworks perhaps :(

Try changing ur title to something like [THINK TANK] :)
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Dan is right the eclair framework is needed to get that app working and I played with the prop and it still isn't working. Upgrade to eclair or use earth on your compter .
[G1 Android Development] skyundersea:
Wouldn't the app run terribly slow on the G1/MT3G anyways? Especially with the 10mb RAM hack.. 2.1 devices generally have a faster CPU, so couldn't they be restricting this for this reason?
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
I think that's what it comes down to. Obviously Google could make it work on 1.6 if they wanted to, but since most devices running it are slower with less memory and lower screen resolution, there's no point. Try running Google Earth for Windows on a Pentium II with 256MB RAM and see how it performs...not very well.
[G1 Android Development] blackvyper:
Yeah.... give it a week or two and it will be running on 1.6.... no problems.

No problems running, except the issue of very stuttery framerates, and small resolutions.
