Whats the best terminal emulator for these phones touch pro?
I am not talking about just a telnet client like putty but something to handle different types of terminals?
I looked but did not find anything anyone uses at least in this forum.
This was very important for me. My work place still uses 3270 Emulation. I used Mochasoft's before (it's free), but it hasnt' been updated for years. They have updated the 5270 versions though.
I now downloaded the Aton version. You get a free 30 day trial and it looks great on our VGA screens. They just recently updated it, and it now supports every resolution WinMo can use. It's about $25, so I'll be purchasing it after the trial's up. One more plus for the Aton version is that it allows you to set your LU or ID number. Mochasoft's version does not.
Not sure if it works with 3270 and older /36 terminals but did you try putty yet?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone happens to connect to the RILOE Remote Integrated Lights-Out on a Compaq Proiant server with their device?
I'm putting together a system and hoping I can get it set up and working decent, I found out there was Ipaq/Pda support with a webbrowser, but it is a limited interface, but the full interface is accessable with IE 4.0 or any browser with Java 1.2 installed..I think it is.
Well with the new Netscape with Java, I am thinking I could get to the full web interface..but now that I think about it..on this smaller screen it will likely look terrible.
But anyhow..if anyone has any experience with the RILOE on pda's and thinks they have some info that might be helpful, or don't mind me bugging them for info, please let me know, I'm sure I'll run into few problems that will havin me pullin my hair out, setting up a headless server is all new territory to me, honestly I'm still wondering about the setup since the RILOE runs a mini webserver and I will also have server 2003 on the machine runnin a webserver, do I just run one on a non standard port? I dunno.
Sorry to get off topic, and thanks.
Ok...I run linux and I would like to be able to remote control my pocketpc similar to how the my mobiler software allows people running windows using activesync. Usually this would not be a problem because vnc is free and runs on everything. I've found 15 different free vnc CLIENTS for the pocketpc but the only servers I've found is a pay one and one that is so old I think it's for ce 2002.
What am I missing?
What you're missing: google
http://www.pocketvnc.com/projects/pocketvnc/index.php 10€, not a bad price for a product some spent time making
Freeware

As I mentioned "I've found 15 different free vnc CLIENTS for the pocketpc but the only servers I've found is a pay one and one that is so old I think it's for ce 2002."
You listed the two I mentioned..good job. Pocketvncserv would not connect with my vncviewer..hence my post.

did you ever find a solution to this?

Try this?
Ever try a nifty little application called "Mobiler"? It displays your wizard's screen on your PC. Full control, etc. Basically does what a VNC server would, and more.
I use a program called SOTI Pocket Controller, but it only works in windows, I need a way to control my Pocket PCs from Linux...
I've tried the pocketvncsvr package, and the server seems to work - but I too cannot connect to the server from my client.
I've tried using ultra, tight and real-vnc specified raw encoding and any number of colour combinations without luck.
The mobiler package worked well enough - but windows only, and my TP2 seems to kill wifi when I use activesync; so its no good for my purpose.
Can anyone share their connection setting and client version that is known to work?
cheers,
Bjorn
My Mobiler works in Linux under wine over wifi with "Connect IP"
Dunno about a way over USB.
PocketVNC: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pocketvnc/. Both server and client included. Haven't tried it though so I don't know if it works.
I might have tried that one. I have tried a few that didn't work. I can't remember if that's one of them...
thinking about making a car pc out of an old small form factor computer. Since the roms code is small I was wondering if it can be done? If anoyne knows or has tried this id love to hear about it. Also if you know of any other versions of windows that might be appropriate for a car pc needs to work with bt audio sincd my head unit accepts a2dp. and able to run tomtom.
if you could use an emulator
but not sure if tomtom would work on an emulator
with gps
problem is that an os is binary code as in written to a surden
cpu
and cpu's in pc's speak a whole different "language" then the arm cpu's in our pocketpc's
of cause if wm is really running on Athena's x86(pc cpu)
then maybe
but ms dont really added support for other cpu types in a long time
they cut support really alpha cpu's from digital got removed with windows nt3.5
and mips and the other type got the axe with pocketpc2000
TomTom can work in an emulator, I tried it in my car PC. But it is not as nice as running, say, Destinator 6 directly in Windows.
Windows XP is actually your best bet - I have it (modded using nLite) running on a VIA EPIA 10000k and its performance is reasonable.
If you want to know more about car PCs, have a look at http://www.mp3car.com or if you are in the UK then http://www.digital-car.co.uk
You will of course find much more information there than here.
I'm not sure this will help, but here is some information on running Windows CE (and Windows Mobile 5) off a USB key. Most of it hinges on using the free Microsoft Device Emulator. Tweaking it to run on your PC directly shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Also I commend you on recycling an old computer rather than buying a new one!

First, I am aware of the controversy regarding removing webOS from the Pre. I've searched for an answer to this question for weeks.
Second, I no longer use the Pre Plus as my phone, (I have upgraded to a Droid 2 Global) but hate to see perfectly good hardware go unused.
So my question is this: Since HP is discontinuing the palm line and the Palm Pre Plus on Verizon never received the updated webOS, what are my viable options for an alternative operating system?
I would love to get Android on there, but would be happy with any option that would turn this phone into more of a workable hand held. We would like to use it to stream from Pandora/Slacker, use it as an mp3 player, check weather, play simple games like Angry Birds, and Netflix would be awesome but we realize that may be a pipe dream.
Any legitimate, workable suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
The underlying linux distribution is fairly robust. I run sshd and lighttpd services as well as some cron tasks and have my favorite editor installed. You can treat is just like a mini-linux server on your network if you like... It can also run X and remote X sessions...
Hi,
I'm looking for a new tablet the idea is to have a linux based environment as the main ui, usage will mostly be web browsing media playback and file management the occasional linux program.
why? short version I want a desktop touch experience somewhat similar to what I get out of my windows 8 tablet but without the Microsoft part.
one method I have seen seems to be the chroot ubunto running on top on android and I was wondering if anyone could help with a few questions please?
1/is it possible to use without needing VNC? (not a fan of having to vnc into the local desktop)
2/any performance hits running a linux system on top of an android one? (other than vnc)
3/its running on top of android so it should have full hardware support with any device right? it isn't going to use the touch screen as a track pad right?
4/recommend any devices I might have luck with? looking around maybe $70ish price range with supported rooting/modding.
5/is it actually there? I mean does it work? Im going to assume if it could be done people (someone at least) would be doing it already ?
thanks

after many days *cough* 10 minute sections where I had nothing better todo* I messed around and finally got the x server working.
it isn't accelerated (and stopped working after I tried to change base distro)
the x wrapper felt slower than VNC.
the dpi is kind of messed up the UI isn't made for it.
the touch screen works like a track pad (urg)
the keyboard erm where is the keyboard? (don't answer that)
for some reason they went and put this really neat tilt thing that moves the mouse around but lacks other things(acceleration?)
I could maybe pass as a really slow desktop if it were hooked upto a usb hub keyboard mouse and hd screen.
I still think it is an amazing feat it just isn't there. it is not usable for day to day tasks, install it for fun with vnc to show your friends you have "linux" installed on your tablet/phone, use it to run scripts / tools on the go you wouldn't normally have access to but that's about the extent to its usefulness, you aren't going to be playing games in it, doing heavy browsing streaming video or even playing sound.
tldr I got no feedback from anyone with experience but from what I gather it isn't going to replace android os on your tablet.
guess I will probably look for a tablet that runs linux native or suck it up and get a vanilla droid tablet and forget about switching out the UI/OS this way
