Which shows  "newer" is not always "better"... anyone remembers the
good old PalmPilot cradles?

Not only were those rock-solid, but also it  was impossible to break
any connectors by pulling hard or by tripping on wires it'd just
unplug itself without any damage.

Yup, I can connect across the internet to my machine at home with no

The difference in the API is  the URL base it uses. It took me about 10 
minutes to write a class in .Net that talks to identica, and most of 
that was working out the places in the API where the author of the 
original Twitter API I was using had hard coded things. For the Mauku 
developer, it should be quite trivial. Indeed, I believe he supplies 
source, so it could be done by someone else. The only issue would be 
that Mauku doesn't handle accounts very well - the Twitter stuff feels 
bolted on to the Jaiku stuff. If a proper account set-up was added, it 
would work well.

Well, no. Mauku should be able to support identi.ca. The identi.ca back 
end supports the Twitter API - as Mauku already supports that API, 
should be fairly trivial to code. The change is litterally: 
"http://twitter.com"; to "http://identi.ca/api"; and all the rest of the 
API will work (no pun intended.. sorry Geek joke hidden in that last 
statement.)

Jabber can NEVER approach a real client.

I didn't have a look at the APIs, but does Laconica/Identica support
some extras there? Or is the sending/receiving the same and groups/tags
are just handled by the server?

> Jabber can NEVER approach a real client.
yes, it's just a work around.

It would also be cool, if Mauku would convert @user, #tag, !group to
links and open windows with their content.

I don't know. Identi.ca has probably changed since I last looked at it. 
Jaiky supportrd groups, so I guess it is possible - except the Jaiku API 
is not the same as Twitter. You can certainly use the Twitter API to 
post to Identi.ca, and it looks exactly like Twitter when you do it that 
way.

Now that Google has pretty much shelved development of Jaiku*, maybe the 
Mauku developer will move to other API's? You'd need to ask him to be sure.

Um... showing my age here, but I almost killed myself by tripping over a 
Palm Pilot Pro serial cable... it broke. The serial cables were designed 
to be screwed in to the serial port. In the fight between my foot and 
the cable, the serial connector sheared off. Luckily, the device flew 
out of the cradle and landed on the carpet face up, else that would have 
been toast too. The serial cradles also didn't charge the device, though 
the Palm Pilot Pro use 2 x AAA batteries, so it wasn't hard to keep it 
running :-) Them was the days!!

AAA batteries.  You can take them out, put them in, easily buy them in 
most areas of the world, stop worrying about power-line compatibility, 
and if you happen to be at home, recharge them.

A lost art in modern technology.

My alphasmart keyboard with internal word-proccessor runs for nine 
months on one set of three AA  batteries.  They sell a recharger that 
you install in the Alphasmart for use with rechargeable batteries, but 
why bother?

DIABLO N800 & PPTP

2009-02-18 Thread Maciej Drobniuch

Hi all!
I've installed the newsiest DIABLO with the pptp client.
I've had tried many howtos to make it working with my pptp server which
uses MSCHAPv2 & MPPE 128.
The first question is - Do I have to install additional kernel modules to
support MPPE128?
Could you guide me to a perfect howto?
I know that pptp is lame(low security) but my school campus is using it
wirelessly and i do not have another choice.
Thanks for all and sorry for my lame eng!

I think you're missing the point. The *PC* end is a different story. The *Palm* 
end doesn't screw in to anything in the handheld.

I have a Handspring Visor Deluxe that I still use. In fact, I'm only now (after 
more than a year of IT ownership) getting  my contacts straightened out in my 
N800 so I can stop carrying the Visor with me. (And even then I'm going to have 
issues with exporting the data elsewhere.) The Visor cradle doesn't have 
anything that connects to the Visor in such a way that anything can break in 
the 
handheld. The plain cable is different, but even that will break the catches on 
the cable rather than anything on the device.

The point is that cables are relatively cheap and *extremely* easy to replace. 
Even the serial port connector on your PC can be replaced a lot easier than the 
power jack in your IT. All connector cables for portable and handheld devices 
should be designed with that as a top priority.

There is no 'perfect howto', but there is a guide which includes all 
vnecessary downloads at
http://fanoush.wz.cz/maemo

Please note that you need to:
Flash a new kernel.
Install a few modules (and insert them at every boot).
Install a user space program.
Configure by editing the configuration files.


If the instructions are not clear enough, you should ask specific 
questions about them.
