Re: [ubuntu-uk] The tablet everyone is talking about..
Hey all -- Long time listener, first time caller. With my obcession for small Linux devices (man the N800 was COOL, but not terribly useful) I couldn't resist the Joggler. Went down to Oxford Street -- apparently they sold out in store on 2 April, and may have more in on Thursday. Online seems the best option for stock availability. I assume they have a backlog, or are about to release an updated version, but who can complain at £49? I think it will make a fine kitchen computer, and a friend is going to try it as a GCompris tablet for his daughter. travis Date: Tue, 6 Apr 2010 14:22:14 +0100 From: Alan Pope a...@popey.com Subject: Re: [ubuntu-uk] The tablet everyone is talking about..

Hopefully for a novice to install. Hi John, I doubt that you will very find much available for the iPhone that works on Ubuntu. The more I see of Apple and their products the more I dislike them. They make Microsoft look quite friendly in terms of lock-in and closing-off opportunities to develop and explore. It is a constant battle of reverse engineering just to get music players to talk to each successive generation of iPod and their app store has very stringent terms. The iPhone is effective controlled and owned by Apple, not you. They can remove apps, lock-it down (and probably worse) without your consent. It might look nice and work well but I value freedom. I'm sure Google will throw up some stuff if you look for it but Apple are really *not* very friendly to the FOSS world. We are looking at getting some new smartphones for our company - they will be Android based. The iPhone is banned.

[ubuntu-uk] Video Card
Hi I have been asked by a charity I work with to recommend some new PC to replace some of their older machines. They are keen to give Ubuntu a try after hearing me evangelize about it. I am looking for the install process to go as smooth as possible and the one area I am unsure of is the video display card. So can anyone recommend a card that will work out of the box. I am looking for 3D acceleration. Any thoughts gratefully accepted.

So can anyone recommend a card that will work out of the box. I am looking for 3D acceleration. If it just for the Compiz effects and user interface then almost any modern chipset should work just fine and out-of-the-box. There are (were) some issues with one of the intel chipsets (gma950?) but I am not sure if that has been fixed. My personal experience has been with Nvidia mainly. And although the driver is binary and closed source, they do, at least, seem to update it regularly and it generally *just works*. ATI have been making big moves toward supporting linux and also open sourcing much of the driver code. They just recently announced a new driver that will support the brand new OpenGL 4.0 specification simultaneously across Windows and Linux. The long and short is that for most modern systems with a built-in GPU you should be just fine. It might be worth just posting a link to a machine you like of just so anyone can comment and in case there is a gotcha. You might want to recommend some of the newer ION based systems using the Intel Atom Dual Core processor and Nvidia embedded GPU. These are just fine for normal desktop use and use much less power than traditional PC h/w so will save the charity a shedload in running costs over the years.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Video Card
Hello Jon, Why not just buy a PC with linux preinstalled? Or better still, keep the existing hardware and run Ubnutu on it as it should work more efficiently than what they already have, possibly using xbuntu if the hardware is really old. You can of course run Ubuntu live from CD, but its a better experience (performance wise) if you create a usb drive with Ubuntu Live on it. (I use unetbootln http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ to create the usb sticks, or you could just use the live cd to install Ubuntu onto the usb stick). *Examples of pre-installed PC's*: http://www.thelinuxshop.co.uk/catalog/index.php?cPath=30 http://crave.cnet.co.uk/desktops/0,39029426,49296161,00.htm http://www1.euro.dell.com/uk/en/home/Laptops/laptop-inspiron-10/pd.aspx?refid=laptop-inspiron-10s=dhscs=ukdhs1~oid=uk~en~20211~laptop-inspiron-10_n00b1001~~ Otherwise, the Eee PC's all seem to run Ubuntu just fine as do many of the netbooks. If the charity is just using Office and Internet applications, then you dont need anything vastly powerful, so a netbook could be more that adequate. I do development on my Eee PC netbook and have no performance problems. If you do want to build your own kit, then anything you buy graphics card wise with an NVidia, ATI or even Intel should work fine these days. Be wary of buying a card that is just out though, dont go for the top end (after all its a charity) and you should be fine. If you find hardware you want to buy, a quick google and check in the Ubuntu forums will tell you if people have issues with it Thank you John On 7 April 2010 08:38, Jon Farmer viperdud...@gmail.com wrote: Hi I have been asked by a charity I work with to recommend some new PC to replace some of their older machines.

Although the intel gpu's are rather weak in terms of performance. They'll handle compiz fine but not really good for say games or whatever. Intel gpus tend to have the best support for out of the box linux features like the display manager. So yeah if you want performance go for Nvidia (or ATI, don't have much experience with ati so can't comment), if you want ease of use and to not have to deal with closed source drivers, go for intel if you can get a mobo with intel graphics onboard -- Gordon Allott Canonical Ltd. 27 Floor, Millbank Tower London SW1P 4QP www.canonical.com signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
