To resolve this on a debian host just remove the entries in

/etc/udev/rules.d/70_persistent-net.rules


Actually this line sends a keep-alive packet to the server every 5 seconds. You can change the interval as you like, but for me it works best with 5 seconds.

Alternatively you can also use the parameter when connecting to the remote host. The command looks like this:

ssh -o ServerAliveInterval=10


First you need git core installed

sudo aptitude install git-core


Next you checkout the module

git clone git://git.myrix.net/pana_acpi

The next step is compiling and loading the module

cd ./pana_acpi
make
make install
modprobe panasonic_acpi

At this point you can already check if the brightness buttons are working.
Next copy ./pana_acpi/acpi/* to /etc/acpi
and restart the acpid daemon.

/etc/init.d/acpid restart

This module should work on all the 7-Series from Panasonic. I only tried it out with my CF-R7.

It says that the computer run out of memory. The computer is running Vista 64 and has around 8GB of RAM.

This is really a weired behaviour :s

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo U7500 @ 1.06GHz
Memory: 1GB 533MHz
Graphics: Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller
Chipset: 82801H (ICH8 Family)
Network: 88E8055 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller vendor: Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
WiFi: PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN Network Connection vendor: Intel Corporation
SATA-Controller: 82801HBM/HEM (ICH8M/ICH8M-E) SATA AHCI Controller
HDD: TOSHIBA MK8037GS 80GB
PCMCIA: RL5c476 II Ricoh Co Ltd
SDHC: R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter Ricoh Co Ltd
Battery: Lithium Ion Battery 41760mWh @7.2V

In Ubuntu nearly everything works out of the box:

Graphics: needs some tricks to work with compiz -> driver is blacklisted

WiFi: works out of the box

Ethernet: not tried yet

SDHC: works out of the box (never worked for me on the r3)

Hotkeys: Recognized by Gnome but are not working (need to try to find a fix)

Displaybrightness: Doesn’t work at all. Tried pcc_acpi driver on kernel  2.6.22 and 2.6.24 without any luck. Both are also not working with xbacklight.

Suspend to Ram: works out of the box

Frequency Management: works out of the box

Now I found a solution, just use JavaHL instead of the predefined SVNKit. To make this happen just install
sudo apt-get install libsvn-javahl

add this line to the eclipse.ini startup file
-vmargs Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni
restart Eclipse and in the “Preferences” switch the SVN Interface to JavaHL.

I am using easyeclipse, its very good for my needs and it comes with all the necessary plugins preinstalled.

This is only because when you install Eclipse with apt-get it uses the slower java-gcj vm. To change this first install the Java VM from Sun if not already done.
Next go to /etc/eclipse/java_home and uncomment the first line which looks like:
#/usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj
Afterwards I added a new line which points to SUNs JVM:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.00

Edit: To install Java from Sun you have to

sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jdk

then with
java -version you will get the running version
and define it as a default

sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-1.6.0-sun


Actually by the time I had the feeling it sucks. Well it is faster even you have a lot of eyecandy enabled, but on the other side I didn’t really like it when the shadows around that window for example don’t look nice. Or when other things are looking bad only because of the screen depth. I was playing around changing the depth to 24 but it only resulted in the white screen of death, or yes Beryl only showed me a white cube.

So I found a solution for it when I was searching for something very different.

Anyway reinstalling unstable intel drivers did the trick. Everything now works like a charm and in 24bit depth

If you want the unstable intel drivers installed just give your terminal some:

sudo aptitude xserver-xorg-video-intel/unstable
and restart the Xserver
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
and you are done.

Can enhancing my Ubuntu desktop with Beryl help me pass the 350-001 exam? Maybe the flaming effects applied to the window displaying my VCP-310 study guide or my Cisco 640-802 questions and answers would help motivate me to study? It could just be that nothing will help you pass the actual tests that go with the Microsoft 70-290 exam than actual hard work and determination.
