just throwing this out - is it possible for the ns to run apache, php, mysql which other computers could then connect to via wifi / whatever?
for me, that'd come in insanely useful.
still thinking of choosing the ns over the sgs II.

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.
Hi all, I’d like some advice please.
I am still fairly new to all this so please treat me as a noob.
This weekend I removed all traces of Windows from my two computers at home. It is now entirely Linux powered
It is also upgrade time for me with my phone network (02 in the UK) and I’d like to get a phone that syncs up to one contacts list and does email. Wifi is a must, so I was thinking of the 02 xda Orbit, or maybe the Graphite (when it comes out)
I have also recently set up a gmail account. Busy time!
So now I am not sure what the next step is.
If I ran CrossOver office, would I be able to sync contacts/tasks/mails with (either) devices?
Should I just use gmail on the phone? (Trying to get my PST files into Gmail is proving a *massive* headache though!) and it looks like then the phone would have two contact lists? One for email and one for the phone.
Is there a better solution? I am quite happy to run thunderbird/evolution/something else on the computer, and or phone.
Nothing is set in stone here. I am completely flexible.
I am keen to hear whatever you recommend is the best solution.
Thanks in advance,
John
As ActiveSync would require direct access to the USB or Bluetooth, i doubt it unless the APIs are there (not to sure with CrossOver, but its not done for Wine).
Syncing in Linux with WM5 is a pain, at best you'll have to hand compile Synce and the OpenSync plugin, then setup OpenSync and Evolution. I currently export my info to vcal/vcf, do some script fu on them and bluetooth over to my mobile and use SkTools to remove any dupes.
Another option is to have QEMU running with Windows and ActiveSync on, then forward the USB device onto QEMU to use. I had this half working last night but the XP install i've got has issues with loading new drivers, i'll try again tonight
Thanks for that response - very very helpful.
I thought about the idea of using a host operating system, but I was concerned about processor speed and system load.
This would be for a laptop that is a few years old, and a mail client is the sort of thing I'd always have running. I am very keen to hear the results of your XP tests. If QEMU works, it may be the solution.
If not, I guess the alternatives are using a java gmail app on the phone and manually keeping the contacts inline.
Or wait to see what happens with this OpenMoko project.
I custom patched QEMU 0.8.2 with the USB Multi-interface mod (needed to pickup a HTC device) and tried to set it up, Devices is detected in WinXP but then errors like a hardware issue. It'd possibly work with VMWare as you can specifically assign a device to the VM but i dont think QEMU is up to the job quite yet.
Thanks for the update. I'll keep hacking, and if I have any success, I'll post about it here.
cheers
Looking for a new phone, and the Nokia N900 was at the top of my list just because is ran a full fledged Linux distro, and I knew I could do some X11 forwarding, but I couldn't get OpenGL apps to forward properly, Mesa didn't help, and it doesn't run on CDMA networks. So I'm considering Android.
I'm aware it doesn't have a native X server, and I'm also aware you can run another Operating System in conjuction, and access it through VNC, but that seems like a huge waste of resources, especially since I'd like to run some relatively demanding things with my phone (like run Blender through X11 forwarding).
So here is the question:
Can any Android phone X11 forward apps without running another operating system?
Is there a method for running OpenGL apps? (like a wrapper, Mesa, etc)
Can any Android phone do X11 forwarding or not?
Any input would be appreciated, I'd like to make a decision.
Help please? I can clarify if necessary.
Hey did you find out if x11 forwarding is possible on android???
Can it be done on the n900???
so?
Looking for the same... Any updates?
So some of the institutions where I use wireless on my HTC HD7 have a secure wifi network. My problem is that it requires 802.1x EAP TTLS PAP support. As far as i know (along with some use of the almighty google)... there is no support for this on windows phone 7 or almost any windows mobile devices (i do recall some ppl on this site being able to do it for the htc s621 with a registry hack).
Is there any sympathetic developer out there willing to take on the task. Once developed and functioning... I would not mind donating
...anyways... for a possible idea and look into what may be required... people on here did develop it for the android pretty recently and its done wonders...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=921237
(link of a thread where someone found the hack needed to enable support and another developer was able to find a manageable way to deploy said support)
Yeah, if someone make an app for that, it would be so awesome.
i miss this feature as well, i used symbian before wp7 which offered these advanced settings
but i'm not sure an app can make this happen
I don't mean an app because that definitely wouldn't be the way.... i mean a possible registry edit or a file to deploy with an installer
This is another thing which has been annoying me with WP7. I used to use SecureW2 client with wm6.5 but this isn't available for WP7. The phone also never seems to retain a data connection with O2 in the UK. It works sometimes after using connection set-up app but invariably drops when I need it most.
Any news from this?? EAP-TTLS would be awesome, because Uni Leipzig uses it as well...
I'd like to bump this as well. We're using Cisco's AP running Open with EAP - RADIUS security. All other common mobile OSes (iOS, Android, WinMo 6.x) can connect to this except WP7.
I'd like to recover the thread as the app mentioned is the single most important missing feature for me right now. Since it seems that we will not be getting any more feature updates in this direction (I had kind of hoped for that).
Sent from my Lumia 800 using Board Express
Yeah for me too, I am not exactly sure what 802.1x I need but my university needs a username and pw, and iOS does this natively, and with android you need a separate app. I hope Windows addresses in 7.8.(fingers crossed)
End Goal:
Control music playing on my Win 7 netbook with my Android phone in the car
(Ok that should probably have been my thread title, since there's probably other ways to achieve this without tcp/ip connection. Too late now)
Description/Details:
Netbook has Win 7 Thin PC (extra cut down version of Win 7)
Phone is Ideos X5 with Android 2.2
Ideally I'd like to use Foobar2000 to play music.
Netbook has Foobar 2000.
Phone has foobar2000 controller: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.cav.foobar2000controller
This works great at home, BUT.... requires a network connection between netbook/phone, as it sends commands via http
But when I'm in the car I have no fixed wifi connection.
Things I have tried:
- Creating adhoc wifi on netbook... Android can't see it
- Creating adhoc wifi on Android.... it just seems to share the phones network connection to the netbook. The phone can't make the foobar http connection with the laptop
- Creating bluetooth PAN. For some reason even though I could connect, I couldn't get the two to talk to each other. Maybe Android was just sharing it's internet connection again. Perhaps this is worth another try?
- Adding adhoc join support to Android... Unfortunately people in the Ideos X5 forum say this doesn't work on my phone
- Getting USBnet on Android to do tcp/ip over USB. Unfortunately my linux/android skills aren't good, and from what I could find out this either wasn't going to work on Android, or was too complicated for me
-Using http://www.connectify.me/ on the netbook... Unfortunately Win 7 Thin PC only supports .Net 4.0, and Connectify is pre 4.0. It could be an option to get another version of Win 7, but I want this to be last resort
Maybe I'm missing something really simple? A nice app available that will solve all my problems?
Help a noob out
Solved?
I know this is nearly a year old post, but did you solve your problem eventually?
