I recently got a Handspring Visor Deluxe (Green) from a friend. This device is quite old for todays standard but should be a very good tool for exploring embedded and PDA programming.

I was trying to open an X application (actually a GTK+ application) and got the error below : Xlib: connection to "unix:1012.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified (scite:8344): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: I think the reason why I am getting this error is that I changed user in terminal from regular account to root. I've read in the net that user can use xhost + but it is not working for nxserver+nxclient. But there is a very easy workaround for this if sudo is installed and enabled. #: sudo scite This will open the scite text editor in an elevated account (root user).
We bought a webcam in yard sale, it is a Logitech QuickCam VC model LKD5 part number 1049-640-001. As we all know, most items bought in yard sale does not come with a driver. A quick visit to Logitech shows that they don't provide a driver for Windows XP for this device. Here comes google. After few minutes of surfing I finally found a driver that works for this hardware. Get it from here . If you need to get the driver from the original publisher visit here . Note: don't install any software from Logitech as it may interfere with the functionality of the driver. Just use Yahoo Messenger or MSN Messenger. You should be all set.
