Hey, My thinkpad t61 makes a high frequency sound, pipipipipippi, not very loud. Funny thing, when I stick in the usb mouse, it's gone... I only have this issue when on battery. Suggestions for solution? Is it right that there is one fan in the T61, on the left of the keyboard? Then a other noise source might be the hdd on the right. It's not that my T61 is very noisy, it isn't very silent either. Maybe I could change the hdd. Best regards, \r

For the final recordings I hope I can get him to play some parts a bit differently. And we'll post more, we're recording the next song and that one already has a way more elaborate bass line ;) Best, Jeremy

Re: [LAU] [MeeGo-community] [PlanetCCRMA] meegolem -- adding rpmfusion, fedora and planetccrma repositories to meego

FYI, I joined the meego kernel list -- the missing ALSA hrtimer will be added: On Sat, Sep 25, 2010 at 12:36 PM, Arjan van de Ven <arjan(a)linux.intel.com> wrote: > On 9/25/2010 11:20 AM, Niels Mayer wrote: >> Unfortunately, in meego, snd-hrtimer doesn't exist.

More interesting, all the goodies in planetccrma/rpmfusion/fedora repos will be available in Fedora 14 with a Fedora supported Meego Desktop; the time for needing hacks like http://nielsmayer.com/meego/ is limirted. Furthermore the important tools will be documented: https://fedorahosted.org/musicians-guide/ and Linux audio, whether on a desktop or netbook or tablet, will gain further visibility and support. And meego-using multimedia users will gain a realtime kernel, perhaps, by using CCRMA's directly on Fedora 14 sometime in the future... good news all around, eh? http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/66760?source=NWWNLE_nlt_linux_20… ///// ///// ///// ///// ///// Fedora 14, nicknamed "Laughlin," will be the first Red Hat supported distribution to let users choose MeeGo as their desktop. MeeGo is a Linux desktop architecture for mobile devices, netbooks, embedded Linux devices (such as In Vehicle Infotainment systems). It is based in the GNOME mobile platform but has been beefed up with additional technologies (Clutter, GUPnP and libsocialweb). Fedora 14 will include the MeeGo Netbook UX specifically for netbook users as a "user environment that sits of top of Fedora and associated MeeGo core services. The netbook user interface and user interaction model for the target devices then is on top of that. ... This expands on the existing support we've had for Moblin in Fedora 12 and 13. " ///// ///// ///// ///// ///// -- Niels http://nielsmayer.com PS: I guess it wouldn't be too early to ask -- preexisting Qt4 "desktop" apps like http://qtractor.sourceforge.net/ http://qjackctl.sourceforge.net/ http://qsynth.sourceforge.net/ end up taking some time getting used to, due to the limited screen real estate on a netbook as well as "popup" application-level windows send you to a different screen and make it difficult to use in conjunction with other application windows simultaneously. Thus three questions related to using existing Qt4 desktop apps on Meego: (1) A way on for meego to popup new non-modal application level windows, such as "Mixer" and "Connection" in qtractor -- in the same "screen" as the one that launched it. Alternately is there a way for these windows in qtractor/qsynth/qjackctl to become panels in the existing windows? (2) A way for existing application icons in qtractor to be displayed smaller, with less border/whitespace, so that they can fit more densely in a panel. Is there an appropriate way to set different kinds of application defaults /styles/skins for using such Qt4 applications on a lower resolution screen -- such as referencing display DPI? (3) A way for Qt4 application icon panels such as used in qtractor, to be rendered as dynamic "mouseover" popups, or "window-shade" style overlays, providing the functionality of the application icons, without taking up static real estate on a cramped screen?
