[Zaurus] 設定神腦粉紅CF無線網卡( SL-2511CF MERCURY )

聽說之前的藍卡就不用這麼麻煩了。
參考以下的說明
http://www.shirtpocket.co.uk/spforum/index.php?showtopic=42

It looks like there has been some internal changes to the Senao/Origo WiFi Cards.

The latest batch we received come with lovely new packaging, but no longer work "Out of the box" with the Zaurus 5500/5600/C700/C750/C750/C860.

Someone has already figured out how to get them to work and posted instructions on what changes need to be made.

See the ZUG link for source of this information :

link

Below is a repeat of what you need to do on the standard Sharp based rom.

We have also included an updated file with values based on those shown below at the bottom of this post.
If you prefer, you could try simply copying the file over the existing file listed below instead of editing it etc. (Keep in mind that any other changes you made to the file would be lost)
Note, file permissions for this file are owner: root, group: root, rw,r,r (chmod 644).

Basicly, you need to add the details for the new card to a configuration file. Once you do that it works fine.

The following info. works for standard Sharp based ROMs.

Note: These changes may already have been added for C7xx/860 units purchased from ShirtPocket.

You will need to make some changes to a text file via terminal or console.

If you don't want to use vi, you may want to install another console based editor such as ee (Easy Editor). See HERE

1. Plug in your card.

2. Bring up terminal and log in as root (su).

3. Enter the command "cardctl ident"

4. From the output :
For Socket 0, copy the details of the first line after "product info :"
Probably the same for all new style cards. On the ones we tested, it says (including first and last quote):
"WLAN", "11Mbps_PC-Card_3.0", "ISL37100P", "Eval-RevA"

5. Backup the file "/etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.conf" (Just in case) by entering the command cp /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.conf /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.conf.old

6. Edit file "/etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.conf" At the end add the following

card "Origo" (or some other description, not important)
version "WLAN", "11Mbps_PC-Card_3.0", "ISL37100P", "Eval-RevA" (or ident for your card if different)
bind "prism2_cs"

7. Save and exit file and reboot your unit.

Already updated file is available for download HERE (Use right click save target as).

MAKE SURE YOUR WEB BROWSER DOES NOT SAVE IT AS A TEXT FILE (PUT A TXT EXTENSION ON THE END)

[電腦] 便宜大頭照

有沒有覺得大頭照太貴了。因為小孩辦簽證需要大頭照,基於能省則省的原則下,就在網路找到一種省錢的模式。
  1. 用數位相機拍下大頭,不必在意取景的精確範圍,最重要的是要拍得正。
  2. 用免費軟體(PhotoCap2)裁切並組合成4x6的照片。
  3. 找一家線上沖印,像是photofast,就可以當成一般照片沖先,每張4x6大約是5元以下。
  4. 等幾天,超商取貨。
  5. 拿到照片後,自己切割成2吋照片。
第一步的拍照因為我們沒有專業的閃光燈,攝影棚;我方法是在陽台上用自然光,好處是避免陽光直射,在臉上產生陰影,又比在室內光線明亮多了。背景我是用 B&Q買來的塑膠板,結構就像瓦楞紙,白色有厚度,不到100元可以買一大塊,是我用來封窗型冷氣的縫隙剩下的。拍起來的照片,如果覺得太暗,就 用影像處理軟體調亮度和對比。因為螢幕上看到的和洗出來的照片亮度不一定一樣,可以再拿以前去照像館拍的數位大頭照,相館都會給光碟片,用電腦螢幕比比 看,差不多就可以了。因為我拍的對像是小孩,粉嫩粉嫩的,不用再修片了。

第二步的軟體用google找,很容易使用,全中文。

第三步的PhotoFast線上沖印,操作流程,我覺得比7-11清楚好用。

第四步,趕時間的人就免了,錢給人家賺比較快,從我上傳完照片,到超商取貨大概花了五天的時間,還有如果一次洗20張以上的話就免物流費。

第五步,因為PhotoCap2排出來的大頭照都有格線,只要照著格線裁切就可以了。我用的版是8張2吋的排成4x6,但洗出來還是有一邊超出邊界,這個部分就應該是各家沖洗店的誤差了。

[學校] 暑假第一天

終於放暑假了,也終於離開我工作8年的網路中心。昨天校邀宴在日月潭邊的富豪群聚餐,相當特別的餐點,全部是水果入菜,苦瓜榴槤、嫩薑蓮霧、鳳梨刺蔥豬、 花枝奇異果、芒果??,當然還有總統魚。老闆還特別示範總統魚的吃法,他說總統魚雖然多刺,但是背上的刺都在三公分的長度,所以取肉的時候,順著刺的方 向,只取兩公分長的肉,長刺就顯而易見,可以一一挑出;至於腹部的肉只要順著刺的方向取下即可,或是魚肚的地方也是沒刺的。不過王老師給我看總統魚的特色 就是刺上還長著倒刺,這可嚇壞我了,我是連吃鱈魚都會被刺到的人,所以只感小嚐一口,至於總統魚的美味,在膽顫心驚中一點也感覺不出來。
用餐的是地方是户外庭園,如果您來過日月潭,在德化社內,應該是很有印像的。一陣午後的雷陣雨,無處宣洩的雨水,就在腳下流過,氾濫的雨水逼得大家的腳都放上桌的橫桿,我還捲起褲管,雖然有點狼狽,但很快就雨過天晴,還真是特別的一餐。
用餐之前先收到林校長送的贈別的禮物,是他去大陸拍的黃菓樹大瀑布,全部是他自己diy完成的,打字、列印、裱褙、裝框。除了他對電腦和攝影很有興趣之外,我想校長百忙之外還親手製做這份禮物,我還是蠻感動的。
暑假的第一天,要做什麼呢 ?當然是睡得晚晚的。
