A Techie Thread About Absolutely Nothing!

Finished compiling the kernel, it works as expected. Now looking into ntrig binaries needed for working touchscreen on a tablet. It's pretty rare touchscreen drivers for this tablet (Evo View 4G) and I don't think there are much other devices out there that use the same ones.

I defined by device configuration properly, I hope it should work..

Blah, no luck. It boots, the kernel, but not the custom OS ROM I made. I'm going to bed and trying this another day.

I think from re-reading my log it looks like I have problems with the libaudio binaries. AKA in windows OS terms, something with the audio driver isn't building or the tablet is reading the driver file incorrectly. But it's strange because I get a black screen on boot, I would have thought it should just boot in without any audio capabilities, which is fine by me.

I dislike getting into too technical stuff of the android aspect because I don't get how to code HAL (Hardware Access Layer) components between the hardware and software. It's way over my head.

I was able to get it to boot building using a different HTC device, but the problem with that build is I couldn't use those touchscreen drivers.
Lots of sitting around on trying to find the root of the problem here.
 
Started new build this morning. I hope this is the one. #4 is my lucky number.

My HP Entertainment Notebook PC is being made into my primary computer for travel use. Last month I installed ntouch PC, Skype, Service Packs 2/3, Microsoft.net Frame 4.0, VLC, and antivirus (soon to upgrade). Now I'm looking to get Windows 7 for it (if I can find it, that is), and I also need to get a larger USB Stick for my work on the research I've been doing. Hmm. Maybe update my RAM, too.

Oh, I forgot to mention my browsers-- I have three-- Opera Stable, Firefox, and Google Chrome. Now, Google Chrome seems to slow down when activated, but Opera Stable browser? Super fast, and impressive. It's a recent discovery of mine, but I've been satisfied with it thus far. My phone has it, and Google Chrome.

One other thing-- my HP laptop also has a Logitech C310 webcam installed on it.

It's been 2 months since I started work on my HP Pavilion Entertainment Notebook PC, and earlier tonight I removed several unused (And useless) computer games, removed Firefox Browser (Never used it, nor got the hang of it), and rebooted my laptop. The result? It's now running MUCH faster than it was earlier today. Oh, and Netscape Browser got removed, too (Who uses that these days, anyways)? Still need to find a suitable anti-virus, though. Having a little bit of trouble with Bitdefender being uploaded on here, but maybe it work now.
 
I'm thinking of getting a new laptop with Windows 10 when it comes out later this year (maybe in fall 2015).
 
it seems I been using lap top mouse on desk top computer I just notice would this be cause of script jumping,Some idiot messing about with COMPUTER if it ok I leave it..otherwise means pulling everything around to get to port..would somebody tell me

It shouldn't cause a problem to use a laptop mouse on a desktop computer. The main difference is usually the size of the mouse. If you're comfortable with that mouse, keep it. However, since you have hand/arm problems, you might want to think about getting a more comfortable, larger, ergonomic mouse later.
 
Okay, so I have come to realize that my HP Entertainment laptop is simply too big and heavy to carry around when I travel, so with that said, I am currently working on one of the Gateway laptops I have (One of which I own), and I have so far been able to install Opera Stable software, and that's it for the time being. I am, however, still working on it.

I am currently installing the following:

Skype
ntouch PC
Adobe Flash Player version 16

Still to install:

VLC for movies
AIM for Windows
Photobucket Desktop

After those are done, I will then install Bitdefender Anti-virus, as the other Gateway laptop prevented me from downloading new software, so I wanted to get these downloaded before I installed it-- don't want to make the same mistake as before.

Whew!! Everything is done!! The Gateway laptop is ready for travel, and it looks good. However, it took me three tries to get AIM for Windows downloaded, but I did get it.


Now as for my HP laptop..... I think I know why I haven't been able to download Bitdefender on here, but I need to confirm it, first.

I thought Gateway died 15+ years ago! We used them at a company that did software pushes to I don't remember how many different computers (we even used OS/2 Warp and ick ... Novell). The final Gateway product was really great but initially they were sucky because you never knew what product was actually in the towers (harddrive, memory, etc.). They certainly were superior to Dell.

Congrats on getting it up and ready for travel. That's really cool.

Nope. Alive and well. That reminds me-- I need to see if I can add a couple of other things at a later date. In the meantime, I'm trying to figure out how to link my Skype and Microsoft accounts into one-- the only answer I have currently is to un-install and re-install the software. :| That's the only answer I'm coming up with.
 
I decided to see if I could add my Logitech C310 webcam to my Gateway laptop, and much to my surprise, it worked, so now both my HP laptop and my Gateway laptop use the same camera, for equal quality.

Now if I could just get Microsoft to work on my HP laptop (Skype, that is), I'd be in good shape. Still trying to get that worked out. I suspect that once I get out of this area and into a stronger one for MiFi reception, it should work.

I'm also looking to add a text messaging app from the web, and I can add one on my HP laptop, no problem, but here? Similar to the Skype situation, I suspect my area I live in isn't strong enough.

I was pretty sure it did too - Gateway just started going completely downhill around 2000-2002. I had both a Gateway laptop(Windows ME- shoot me...) and PC tower back around 2002... lost the PC tower (don't ask- it's a bizarre story...)... laptop...ugh. Oh I gave it to a friend of mine when she was considering learning how to do laptop repair. I have no idea what she did with it though- I'll have to ask her. By the time I gave it to her it was moving as slow as a herd of turtles in molasses anyway. Switched to Dell in 2002 and haven't looked back- both towers and laptop are Dell.

hahaha Novell.. oh ick.. used that at many of my jobs and if I remember right I think they still had it at my last job but finally started switching to MS server or something non Novell by the time I left there.
 
Okay, so I finally figured out why I was having a downloading problem with one of the laptops, and it turns out there were several reasons for that.

One was that my Internet security was at maximum high, which it should have been at medium high.

Another was that I didn't realize that the desktop downloading was disabled, so I enabled that, along with a couple of other things, and sure enough, there was the problem. I have since been able to download a couple of other things. I also did the same for my HP laptop, but I have't yet tested the download portion on there yet-- might do that tonight.
