<p>Actually EVERYTHING runs out-of-the-box with Ubuntu netbook remix&#8230; Even the 3G Module gets detected correctly, a wizard is there to grab your location, provider and PIN.</p>
<p>The 3G Connection then shows up in the network manager. Unfortunately unable to connect&#8230; Long Story short&#8230; go to the Preferences (right click in network manager applet) and fill Username and Password with dummy values &#8220;mp&#8221;, &#8220;mp&#8221;. Actually these values are not needed, but not providing them causes authentication to fail&#8230; this workaround has been reported to work for other providers as well.</p>
<p>So long, everything works!</p>
<p>Perfect Laptop for on the road linux experience, even every special button works as intended&#8230; Ubunto netbook remix interface is perfect for the screen.</p>
<p>Big+ from me</p>
<p>enjoy&#8230;</p>

</a></p>
<p>Und dies gleich mit zwei ausgezeichneten Kandidaten. GottaGo (neu Transport) und RAIweb.</p>
<p><strong>Transport (GottaGo)</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://gottago.demo.liip.ch/">Transport (GottaGo)</a> , ist die MustHave iPhone Appliaktion für Schweizer ÖV Benutzer. Ziel-Ort eingeben und schon ermittel GottaGo mittels GPS deinen aktuellen Standord und sagt dir von welchen Abfahrts-Stationen in deiner Nähe Du am schnellsten ans Ziel kommst. Um die Abfahrtsstation (Bus, Tram, Zug) zu finden kann man sich den Weg gar auf Google Maps zeigen lassen.</p>
<p>Alle wichtigen ÖV Fahrpläne der Schweiz hat man somit stets zur Hand.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.puerro.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/ggo_010_2.png" rel="lightbox[455]"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-461" title="ggo_010_2" src="http://www.puerro.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/ggo_010_2.png" alt="ggo_010_2" width="320" height="460" /></a></p>
<p>Um GottaGo auszuprobieren einfach Gratis die Applikation unter dem neuen Namen <strong>Transport</strong> im AppStore auf dem iPhone herunterladen! Sollte man eh tun, denn ein Fahrplan in der Tasche ist immer mal praktisch. Und kost ja nix <img src='http://www.puerro.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>RAIweb</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://raiweb.extern.liip.ch/">RAIweb</a> ist ein modernes Intranet für die Raiffaisen Banken.<br />
Aufbauend auf OpenSource und freien Standards hat die Raifteisen ein modernes Intranet für seine Mitarbeiter welches den heutigen Standards entspricht. Jeder Benutzer kann seine Startseite gestalten wie er will. Mittels Drag&amp;Drop können die verschiedenen Elemente angeordnet werden und Durch Reiter kann man sich sogar mehrere Seite auf seinen &#8220;WebDesktop&#8221; anordnen (ähznlich wie <a href="http://www.google.ch/ig">iGoogle</a>).</p>
<p>So wird das Intranet für jeden Mitarbeiter zum perfekten Tool. Sofortzugriff auf Telefonbücher, Kalender, Aktienenkurse, Meldungen oder bekannte Dienste wie <a href="http://doodle.com/">Doodle</a> und vieles mehr&#8230;</p>
<p>Durch den flexiblen und einfachen Aufbau ist jeder Nutzer in der Lage das Intranet füs sich persönlich zu optimieren. Vieles was in letzter Zeit in Sachen Benutzerfreundlichkeit gelernt wurde ist hier integriert. Web 2.0 für den Unternehmensbereich!</p>
<p>RAIweb kann <a href="http://raiweb.extern.liip.ch/force_login.php?type=user&amp;userid=1122&amp;redirect=http://raiweb.extern.liip.ch/iframe">als Demo live ausprobiert</a> werden</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With Ubuntu most of the Things work right out of the Box&#8230;. Once you solved the two graphic cards problem trough the BIOS (enable on card only!). I choose the internal intel graphics because it uses less power than the ati and has support for the RandR Extension. (Which comes in handy if you plug and unplug external monitors/projectors).</p>
<p>Problem is that you have to reconfigure (you can do clickingly in gnome) every time the monitor setup changes. Some problem appeared at work where i have a huge 1920&#215;1200 screen. &#8220;Viewport is to small for both&#8221; it says. So no problem, i disable the laptop monitor and go with the external &#8230; so far so god. But in the evening i get lazy unplug my lap and go home&#8230; at home laptop screen is still disabled&#8230; black&#8230; no (comfortable) chance to switch it on again&#8230; Pretty annoying, i have to reconfigure before unplugging, disabling the external and enabling the internal again&#8230;</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t want to do that.</p>
<p>excursus: Viewport can be fixed like this, just add the following to your xorg.conf Screen section:</p>
<blockquote><p>SubSection &#8220;Display&#8221;<br />
Depth         24<br />
# Just set it high enough for<br />
# every combination of Monitors<br />
# There is a known issue that DRI doesn&#8217;t work on pre-965 if maximum is larger than 2048&#215;2048.<br />
Virtual 2048 2048<br />
EndSubSection</p></blockquote>
<p>EndExcursus</p>
<p><strong>So let&#8217;s start </strong></p>
<p>First we need some info:</p>
<blockquote><p>mp@mp-t400:~$ xrandr -q<br />

1680&#215;1050           60.0*+<br />
1600&#215;1024           60.2<br />
1400&#215;1050           70.0         60.0<br />
1280&#215;1024           75.0         60.0         60.0<br />
1440&#215;900             59.9<br />

1024&#215;768             75.1         75.0         70.1         60.0<br />
832&#215;624               74.6<br />
800&#215;600               72.2         75.0         60.3         56.2<br />
640&#215;480               75.0         72.8         75.0         60.0         59.9<br />
720&#215;400               70.1<br />
LVDS connected 1440&#215;900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 303mm x 190mm<br />
1440&#215;900             60.0*+     59.9         50.0<br />
1360&#215;768             59.8<br />
1152&#215;864             60.0<br />
1024&#215;768             60.0<br />
800&#215;600               60.3         56.2<br />
640&#215;480               59.9</p></blockquote>
<p>So here we see two outputs LVDS for the internal one and VGA for the external monitor.</p>
<p>LVDS is left of the VGA one. i configured this graphicaly (thanks to xrandr).</p>
<p><a href="http://www.puerro.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/bildschirmfoto-bildschirmeinstellungen.png" rel="lightbox[412]"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-413" title="bildschirmfoto-bildschirmeinstellungen" src="http://www.puerro.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/bildschirmfoto-bildschirmeinstellungen.png" alt="bildschirmfoto-bildschirmeinstellungen" width="574" height="549" /></a></p>
<p>(And yes my monitor at home has a different size than the one at work&#8230;). The above picture illustrates the manual fiddling arround i was complaining about <img src='http://www.puerro.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':-D' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
I want to have the internal screen on the left because it&#8217;s size is unlikely to change and the viewport is counting from top-left&#8230;   (had to switch to a above/under setting, more later)</p>
<p>If i unplug the external monitor i get the problem. Menus and the like keep sticking tho the now inexistant external screen&#8230; pretty annoying.</p>
<p>Now we come to the point why i want RandR Extension support for my graphics. With the xorg tool xrandr &#8211; i can now automatically configure my external screen on the Fly. Without restarting X.<br />
As we know from the output before it has the identifier VGA. I now auto-detect the VGA Port with xrandr and set this monitor above the first one (only works if one is here of course <img src='http://www.puerro.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':-D' class='wp-smiley' /> ):     (PS: I choose above LDVS because mode DRI only support 2048 in width, and i want DRI for the Compiz crap)</p>
<blockquote><p>$&gt; xrandr   &#8211;output VGA &#8211;auto<br />
$&gt; xrandr   &#8211;output VGA &#8211;above LVDS</p></blockquote>
<p>So that does the trick. i do not want to type that in every time, so i write a little script and bind it to a key a never use <img src='http://www.puerro.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':-D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>First the script in ~/scripts/detectvga.sh</p>
<blockquote><p>#! /bin/sh</p>
<p>xrandr   &#8211;output VGA &#8211;auto<br />
xrandr   &#8211;output VGA &#8211;above LVDS</p></blockquote>
<p>Don&#8217;t forget to</p>
<blockquote><p>$&gt; chmod +x ~/scripts/detectvga.sh</p></blockquote>
<p>Now let&#8217;s start that script with a special key. I use <a href="http://hocwp.free.fr/xbindkeys/xbindkeys.html">xbindkeys</a> to do such tricks&#8230; (because it works for every windowmanager and it&#8217;s easy). First i need the keycodes:</p>
<blockquote><p>$&gt; xbindkeys -k</p></blockquote>
<p>Keycode for F6 is &#8220;m:0&#215;10 + c:72&#8243;</p>
<p>so i add the following to mi .xbindkeysrc</p>
<blockquote><p>#automatic xrandr yai&#8230;<br />
&#8220;/home/mp/scripts/detectvga.sh&#8221;<br />
m:0&#215;10 + c:72</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>FINISH!</strong></p>
<p>More info:</p>
<p>$&gt; <a href="http://www.linuxcommand.org/man_pages/xrandr1.html">man xrandr</a><br />
$&gt; man xbindkeys</p>
