Rygel 0.4 release
Rygel 0.4 (Fascinating!) has been released yesterday, so grab it while it’s hot.
Cellphone sync and linux
I once had a cellphone that played very nicely with Linux, the good old Siemens S55. Unfortunately, my SE P1i doesn’t. I tried various combinations of Multisync or OpenSync, nothing helped. Today I bit the bullet and installed funambol with syncevolution. What shall I say, apart from having to run a ~250Meg Java Application server just for me, it simply works. Period.
And thanks to Blueman, this works with Bluetooth now, too (Via PAN of course, not OBEX).
Is that all, bob?
No, it isn’t. You don’t only get the mingw version of gupnp, there will be a shiny version compatible with MSVC! Lo and behold, the unavoidable screenshot
Location-dependant IGMP
Could someone please enlighten me?
I spent a third of my work today wondering why
- a modified QUdpSocket only leads to IGMPv1 membership reports
- a self-written plain old socket multicast client only leads to IGMPv2 joins, but very seldom leaves
Now being at home, I tried both programs and both reliably send IGMPv3 joins and leaves…
Non-functional ALT key and VMWare
If you’re using VMWare on Linux host, you sometimes might experience that after switching from VM to Host your ALT key (or some other “special” key) stopps working. Found the workaround to correct this: setxkbmap
