R61 C2D and Fedora 10 with the desktop effects
Hello!
I resized my boot partition in order to get Fedora 10 installed. Now I have a dual-boot machine.
Does anyone know how to enable "desktop-effects"? If I let the screen turns white.
Do I have to install the nvidia drivers? (packages available from lenovo?) I installed all the packages are from fedora. If the fingerprint sensor also does not work, but it's ok.
Modell 8914-W29 with nVidia Quadro NVS 140 M (rev a1)
xorg-X11-Server-Common-1.5.3-6.fc10.i386
2.6.27.9 - 159.fc10.i686
I solved it by myself:
Take a look at
http://www.ThinkWiki.org/wiki/NVidia_Quadro_NVS_140m
and install the latest nvidia driver native, you can find here
http://www.nvidia.com/object/UNIX.html
Keep in mind that it requires gcc, kernel-devel and perhaps other RPM. The installation routine will complain if the requirements are not met.
Installation (HS / NVIDIA...) must be in runlevel 3 (telinit 3) and it is necessary to repeat it after a new kernel is installed.
And you're done!

Hello
You can directly download the CC applications and authenticate with my adobe cloud identification information without using the desktop application? whenever I have try with the desktop app it says impossible to arrive on the same adobe servers when I'm connected to the Internet and I don't have any active anti-virus software?
Thank you
No application of cc, no clouds. It's the simple truth here. Programs cannot operate without him, since he controls the installation and licensing. the rest, we do not know, since you have not provided any useful technical information. Start by reading this (yet?):
What also good technical details are necessary.

BlackBerry Smartphones trying to connect with the desktop software for my blackberry
Hey, M trying to connect with the desktop software for my blackberry torch 9800 and it asks password for the connection. I am using same unlock password I use for my bb but for desktop sofware it shows incorrect... pls help!
Make sure that you type on your BB, it's what you type in DM. don't forget that the keyboard on your BB is different from the keyboard on your PC. Some people think they are type numbers on their BlackBerry when they are really typing the letters. For example, to use numbers on a BB you must hold the ALT for each button, you push so you have to hold the alt key while typing 1 2 3 4. If you hold down the ALT key on the BB you would really be typed all W E R S. sometimes, people will hit the ALT key once (and not hold the button) before they enter the password and then you get 1 E R S.
Who is? Make sure that you do not mix numbers and letters.

Original title: I h8 windows 8.
I don't like having to go through two screens to start my computer and two screens to close. Add the startup of the screen and the screen of the application tiles does improve performance, they interfere. I don't see what's the difference between have icons on my page tiles and the application windows on my screen, except that the former is more efficient.
Is it possible to get rid of the splash screen, the screen of the app and go straight to the desktop?
Easy solution for this. You can download the Start button after the installation your computer will work like all the other previous windows and ordinarysoft.com. You will have all the programs with your button/start menu 'start '. The installation start opt to escape metro and you never see it again. Tell me if you have any problem to find the button start or downloading from the link I told you. Its free of cost.

Just bought Wndows Vista and having problems with the port for Palm 125
I just bought a Windows Vista-based computer and have problems with getting my 125 Palm to synchronize with the desktop computer. I get an error message saying: "No available Com1" what should I do?
Thank you
Frustrated
Don't ask me the procedures step by step that I did, but I finally success! I uninstalled Palm Desktop and started from scratch. I unplugged the Hot Sync cradle by the USB port, then I installed Palm Desktop from my drive and then update Palm Desktop on the Palm for Palm M125 site. It still does not, I manually added a port and manually changed to COM1. I then pressed the Hot Sync button and in the Device Manager, a folder has become available "device named" with Palm Desktop as a subfolder. It is always active, I updated my computer for Palm USB driver. Miraculously it worked. Thanks for your help, but as usual everything it needed, it was patience and trial and error to solve the problem, since it does not seem to be a quick fix related this topic.
Message relates to: Palm m125

Portege M400: Is it possible to receive and make calls with the SIM card
Is it possible to receive and make calls with the card SIM module in the Portege M400?
I know that you can send and receive sms messeges, which, according to me, the software is not all good because you can't hold much, and you can't send to ems or mms.
But there may be other software here?
Hello
What software do you mean exactly?
As far as I know that the MobiLink was preinstalled on some units Portege M400.
This software supports these features:
Send and receive SMS, composition and read TEXT messages in several languages, compose and send to multiple recipients, the mobile contacts address book support, Rich edit for the launch of URL and Email using embedded addresses.As you can see that you can not use this software to make calls!
And unfortunately other software does not know me :(With regard to the MobiLink Communications Software Suite;
