Chromium touchscreen scrolling.

That's a nifty extension: a trick to make WeTab browsing a real experience. Install this to have an iPad like, single-finger scroll in Chromium. On the right of the adress bar you can choose from auto (scroll when touch in page, but not in letters), full (scroll wherever you touch), or turn it of (so you can select that url).

Nice..

GLIBCXX_3.4 not found problem in Matlab under Ubuntu

0 comments
Today wanting to experiment with compilation tools in Matlab R2010b under Ubuntu 11.04 I faced the following error using the latest gcc 4.5 to compile the example 'yprime.c' given in Matlab's mex guide:

$matlab/sys/os/glnx86/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.sth not found 

Searching in Google revealed that I haven't installed g++ libraries. Straight to synaptic package manager to install libstdc++ (I also installed g++, gcc-multilib and c++ just to be sure :p). But the problem was still there..

After a little digging I found a post describing that i had to replace some files in /usr/local/matlabfolder/sys/os/glnx86/ folder. Had to remove matlab's libstdc++.so files:

cd /usr/local/matlabR2010b/sys/os/glnx86/

Create backup of the three files first!!

sudo cp libstdc++.so.6 ~/Desktop
sudo cp libstdc+.so.6.0.14 ~/Desktop
sudo cp libgcc_s.so.1 ~/Desktop

then get rid of the old ones:

sudo rm libstdc++.so.6
sudo rm libstdc+.so.6.0.14
sudo rm libgcc_s.so.1

and substitude them with the ones used by gcc (probably in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ or just /usr/lib/)

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6.0.14
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1

and presto, Matlab compiles like charm!

Small, but comfortable. Cheap and with battery lasting for weeks.. This Bluetooth Keyboard is a great companion for working on the go :) (Though, I would wish for a bluetooth AND usb version, to easily resolve WeTab booting issues.. )

Intresting... :)

My first exercise in C..

...was written and compiled in my JB iPhone because I was on a trip and didn't had my netbook... And is working! It's a simple string find and replace code, but I made quite a few errors. I'm looking forward to improve my C skilz :)

Weeeetab!

Few days ago i finally got my hands on WeTab, the German version of iPad. It is basically a Asus netbook with a touchscreen. It is a little heavier than the iPad but it has a nice smooth rugged skin that everybody love. Sadly the touchscreen has a cheap NT panel so the visibility is quite poor in wide angles . The integrated fan (it is an Atom netbook, so it needs cooling) is super quiet. The battery lasts long enough (but takes hours to charge also). The modified Unix OS that comes with is a mess.. I'm looking forward to install Ubuntu 11.04 along with uTouch. Also I am making my firsts steps in game development for iOS in flash. So with these things around is difficult to resist!!

More details comming soon...For the moment my cat just don't let me touch it (it's warm and she likes it)
