Windows CE Programming

I started to install and run LMDE 201101 on my Acer Aspire One D150.

Changes after install:
Touchpad-In control Center-Hardware-Mouse-Enable Mouse clicks with touchpad

After suspend (lid closed) and resume there was no display. Added one line in “/usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/20-video-quirk-pm-acer.fdi” and commented out another line:

<!-- Aspire One 110 -->
 <match key="system.hardware.product" prefix_outof="AOA110;AOA150">
 <!--<merge key="power_management.quirk.none" type="bool">true</merge>-->
 <merge key="power_management.quirk.quirk-vbe-post" type="bool">true</merge>
 </match>

Then restarted hal with
sudo /etc/init.d/hal restart
After this change suspend/resume does work OK for display.

(see also http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-laptop-and-netbook-25/blank-screen-after-resume-from-suspend-764822/ and http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=44378 why I did this)

Now the last initial change: let the fan be controled by temperature I used the lines

>sudo su
>echo -n “enabled” > /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/mode

That’s it for now…

Recently I needed to know, which chars (glyphs) are supported by a windows mobile font. I looked around for a charmap tool like we have on Windows Desktop PCs and was unable to find one. So I started this little tool: CharmapCF.

As you can see, you get a simple charmap and can verify what glyphs are supported and which not (square rectangle).

CharmapCF supports only UCS-2, UTF-16 as used by Microsoft’s Encoding.Unicode class. So it also only supports the Unicode Basic Multilanguage Plane (BMP).
