• NetworkManager detects no networks with a RTL8188CE

  - by Cormac O'Brien

  I'm on a 2011 Lenovo Thinkpad T420i with a Realtek RTL8188CE WiFi adapter. Here's the scenario: I pop in the Ubuntu LiveCD to install. Laptop detects all networks in range, I connect to my home network, internet working great. Once Ubuntu finishes installing, the home network I am connected to is the only one which appears in the applet list. Upon restarting or waking from suspend, NetworkManager does not detect any networks – it simply displays "Disconnected" under the Wireless Network section of the menu. I am able to connect to my home network by using the "Connect to Hidden Wireless Network" option and it works immediately. I have yet to test if this works with other SSIDs. I have tried reinstalling the entire OS as well as NetworkManager and my wireless drivers. For hardware info, I ran: cormac@cormac-T420:~$ sudo lshw -c network Here is the output for my wireless card: *-network description: Wireless interface product: RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter vendor: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. physical id: 0 bus info: pci@0000:03:00.0 logical name: wlan0 version: 01 serial: d0:df:9a:08:73:50 width: 64 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: pm msi pciexpress bus_master cap_list ethernet physical wireless configuration: broadcast=yes driver=rtl8192ce driverversion=3.2.0-26-generic firmware=N/A ip=192.168.1.138 latency=0 link=yes multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11bgn resources: irq:17 ioport:5000(size=256) memory:f2500000-f2503fff I can provide more information if required. This was not a problem in Natty or Oneiric. I hope this can be fixed, I don't want to have to ask for an SSID wherever I need to connect.

• Solutions Providers: Profit From SaaS Today

  I wrote this guest blog a few months back on the VAR Guy website. I figured I would repost a link as I keep having conversations on this subject including yesterday at an IDC Software Channel Leadership Council event.

• Recommended book on Actors concurrency model (patterns, pitfalls, etc.)?

  - by Larry OBrien

  The Actors concurrency model is clearly gaining favor. Is there a good book that presents the patterns and pitfalls of the model? I am thinking about something that would discuss, for instance, the problems of consistency and correctness in the context of hundreds or thousands of independent Actors. It would be okay if it were associated with a specific language (erlang, I would imagine, since that seems universally regarded as the proven implementation of Actors), but I am hoping for something more than an introductory chapter or two. (FWIW, I'm actually most interested in Actors as they are implemented in Scala.)

• What are the recommended resources for learning about the Actor model of concurrent systems?

• Moving email to folders in Outlook 2007

  - by Fred OBrien

  When i right click an email in Outlook 2007, it always defaults or opens to be saved in one particular folder. It's always the same folder. Actually a subfolder in a folder. It never used to do this. It would always default to the last folder that I had saved in before . Does anyone know how to stop this from happening? It is getting really time consuming and irritating. Would a windows update affect this?

• How can I change the language of dynamic text in a SWF using flashvars?

  - by Cormac

  I have a SWF with text embedded from an external .txt file. Is there a way I can have a different file used as the text source through the embedcode (swfObject) depending on the language? Here is my current actionscript: myData = new LoadVars(); myData.onLoad = function() { text_clips.project_title.text = this.projecttitle1; }; myData.load("translatetext.txt"); var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader(); loader.loadClip(_level0.projectimage1,pic1.image_holder); This is the content of translatetext.txt: projecttitle1=This is my translatable text This is the embed code I'm using: <div> <object width="960" height="275" id="rvFlashcontent"> <param name="movie" value="lang_test_3.swf" /> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> <param name="flashvars" value="projectimage1=flashimages/testimage.jpg" /> <!--[if !IE]>--> <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="lang_test_3.swf" width="960" height="275"> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> <param name="flashvars" value="projectimage1=flashimages/testimage.jpg" /> <!--<![endif]--> <h1>Alt Content</h1> <!--[if !IE]>--> </object> <!--<![endif]--> </object> </div> What I want to do is add a Flashvars parameter to name the file to load, so I can change the language: <param name="flashvars" value="projectimage1=flashimages/image.jpg&projecttext=textfrench.txt" /> There are four languages needed so far, but this will grow so it needs to be flexible enough to let the developers add languages without getting a new SWF each time. Thanks in advance all!

• Retrieving a pixel alpha value for a UIImage (MonoTouch)

  - by Larry OBrien

  This question is a duplicate of 1042830, but MonoTouch-specific. Is there a way that's safer than allocating an IntPtr, drawing into it using CGBitmapContext and then reading bytes at the appropriate offset?

• Is it possible to define a generic lambda?

  - by Mike OBrien

  I have some logic in a method that operates on a specified type and I'd like to create a generic lambda that encapsulates the logic. This is the spirit of what I'm trying to do: public void DoSomething() { // ... Func<T> GetTypeName = () => T.GetType().Name; GetTypeName<string>(); GetTypeName<DateTime>(); GetTypeName<int>(); // ... } I know I can pass the type as a parameter or create a generic method but I'm interested if it can just be a generic lambda (So I'm not looking for alternatives). From what I can tell C# 3.0 doesn't support this. TIA, m
