Hello,
the TuxMobil News digest for April 2004[1] has good news
for Linux PDA, mobile phone and laptop users. Here is an
extract of the most important or most interesting messages.
Werner Heuser
|=| TuxMobil now contains more than 2.000 links[2] to Linux laptop and
notebook installation reports. Finally there is a solution to enable the
external CRT on i855GM based laptops (e.g. Centrino), take the i855crt
userspace driver[3]. A new issue (0.13.2) of the well-used Synaptics [4]
touchpad driver is available and laptop_mode, which extends the battery
life of your laptop has made it into Kernel 2.6.6[5].
|=| Trolltech has released the first issue of their Qtopia Phone Edition[6].
For more information about Linux on or with cellular mobile phones see
the TuxMobil - Mobile Phone Survey[7].
|=| Linux support for portable (digital) audio players is on the rise,
many common players are already supported[8], e.g. you may soon expect
release 1.0 of PodSync[9] to synchronize kabc and kaddressbook with an
Apple iPod.
