770: Execute directly from mmc?
Hi, I have a huge framework I would like to use on my N770. Its about 100mb large, so the internal flash is to small. However when I try to start it dirctly from mmc I get Permission denied. In my N800 I see the SD cards are mounted noexec, however my 770 doesn't report noexec. Any ideas how I can trick my 770, to allow execution of executables directly from the mmc? Symlinking didn't help unfourtunatly :-/ Thank you in advance, Clemens ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
[Fwd: [Novalug] SouthEast LinuxFest]
All, fyi. Info concerning upcoming LInux event in the US: Clemson, South Carolina. Best Regards, John Holmblad Acadia Secure Networks, LLC * * Original Message Subject:[Novalug] SouthEast LinuxFest Date: Tue, 05 May 2009 23:44:56 -0400 From: greg pryzby Reply-To: To: NOVALUG nova...@calypso.tux.org From: Kevin Jones commun...@southeastlinuxfest.org The SouthEast LinuxFest (SELF) is a community event that is open to everyone who is interested in Linux and Free Open Source Software. SELF will be held at the Clemson University Hendrix Student Center in Clemson, SC on June, 13th 2009. We have an all-star line-up of F/LOSS speakers who have generously offered to commit their time, and to share their knowledge and insight to help us grow Linux in the GNU/South. The following speakers have (barring any issues which may arise) confirmed their attendance: - Chris DiBona, Google (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_DiBona) - Brian Leonard, Sun Microsystems (http://weblogs.java.net/blog/bleonard/) - Wendy Seltzer, EFF (http://wendy.seltzer.org/ ) - Mark Spencer, Digium (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Spencer) - Icculus a.k.a., Ryan Gordon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryan_C._Gordon) - Paul Frields, Fedora (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PaulWFrields) - Michael DeHaan, Red Hat (http://www.redhatmagazine.com/author/mdehaan/) - Russel Bryant, Digium (http://www.russellbryant.net/blog/) - Robbie Workman, Slackware (http://rlworkman.net/) - Pete Granger, Canonical/Ubuntu (http://www.canonical.com) - Joe Zonker Brockmeier, openSUSE (http://www.opensuse.org) - Wade Olson, KDE (http://wadejolson.wordpress.com/) While we are making spirited progress, we cannot do this without the support of other LUG's and LoCo's in the Southeast. Having strong LUG support is vital to the success of our event, both in it being a memorable and enjoyable experience, and in our seeking additional sponsorship. You can begin supporting this event now by: posting the SELF banner on your blogs, wikis, and Web sites; printing copies of the SELF flyers (http://southeastlinuxfest.org/sites/default/files/SELF-Flyer.pdf and http://southeastlinuxfest.org/sites/default/files/self_flyer.png) and distributing them at your meetings and around your community; and by asking your members to register on the SELF Web site. Feel free to appoint someone from your LUG to join our mailing list, and to attend our weekly IRC meetings (every Tuesday night at 9pm EST on #southeastlinuxfest), so that they can keep your LUG up to date on our plans as we move forward. We are looking for sponsors! Businesses, non-profits, and educational institutions interested in sponsoring SELF should direct inquiries to i...@southeastlinuxfest.org mailto:i...@southeastlinuxfest.org. A vendor prospectus is available on our Web site.

Help us to spread the word about SELF '09 to your local businesses, non-profits, colleges and universities, and anywhere else you might find Linux users, supporters, and newbies.

There will be a number of breakout sessions held throughout the day where users can learn tips and tricks, as well as pick up useful skills and information from their peers.

Re: 770: Execute directly from mmc?
In the case somebody experiences the same problems, simply remove the noexec mount flag in /usr/sbin/mmc-mount. No idea why mount didn't show noexec was enabled... - Clemens 2009/5/8 Clemens Eisserer linuxhi...@gmail.com: Hi, I have a huge framework I would like to use on my N770.

Are there light versions of Google docs? I ask because with my tablet I'm always using the plain HTML or mobile versions of gmail and google.com/xhtml for searching with my tablet.

If you know ahead of time and only need to view a document there are lots of utilities (many free) that can convert pretty much anything to PDF. However, you can't edit PDFs, especially on the tablets. Mark ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
