But there are mixed reports online. Can you specify which distro and kernel version you used? And which exact module/driver was used? Thanks! Sounds great, I might decide to get one as well.

I’m happy to say that the clients, just under a dozen programmers working for a large German corporation, have reported being “very satisfied” with my two-day seminar. I’m also happy to say I enjoyed it even more than I thought I would, probably due to the lack of nervousness I thought I might experience. In fact, I was so at ease and enjoying myself, I’m now hugely looking forward to delivering it again for other clients.For anyone who wishes to know more about the Eclipse training I provide (perhaps you’re interested in it yourself?) here’s the basic overview:Downloading and installingIntroducing the working environment (workbench, views, perspectives)Programming using the editor, basic functionsBackup and versioning, local historyUsing plug-ins and updates sitesProject administrationFeatures for object-oriented programmingFeatures for Java developmentDebugging and Running programsGUI development using visual editorsAutomated testing using JUnitVersion control using Subversion and SubclipseDeveloping UML diagramsEditing XML filesPlug-in developmentPractical tips and tricksThese subjects are by no means carved in stone, but they certainly embody what is necessary for beginners to learn (with the possible exceptions of UML, XML and plug-in development) and represent what can be covered in a minimum of two days. Beyond that, my curriculum is flexible and open to discussion.If you’re interested in knowing more or booking a training, then please feel free to get in touch via [email protected].    Eclipse Read the original post on Planet Eclipse...

During that time a new release of Saros went out and I almost let it pass without telling you about it.Version 11.12.9 of our distributed development tool (the final release of the year) is now available. This is a particularly exciting release because, in addition to a number of very important bug-fixes, there are a couple of great new features.The first feature is needs-based synchronisation. With Saros you already have the ability to share just a subset of files with your peers, so that you don’t have to spend time sending huge amounts of data over the network. Until now, this meant that if you wanted to collaborate on unshared files, they needed adding to the session manually. Now, with needs-based synchronisation turned on, Saros will monitor the files you work on; when you begin editing an unshared file, Saros will instantly and automatically share the file with everyone in the session.The second feature is really a group of new features. The distributed Whiteboard has been upgraded with numerous new features, including:Line drawingArrow drawingAdding textAdding shared annotationsDrawing in your user colourAnd finally, a bug that prevented multi-user chat from functioning when connecting to OpenFire servers has been thoroughly squashed.You can install and update Saros from Eclipse: http://dpp.sf.net/update. For more information visit http://www.saros-project.org.On behalf of the Saros team, have a Merry Christmas!    Eclipse Read the original post on Planet Eclipse...
