iPad 2 on/sur Fedora

English

It has been a while I wrote on this blog because I am busy running my own design business. Aside that, I recently plug an Apple iPad 2 to import pictures and videos on a Fedora 17 running Gnome Shell 3.4 out of box. It is remarkable what a free and open source software network can do to a device intended to primarily run on iTunes software.

De retour après le manque d’écrit sur ce blog en raison d'affaire professionnel relié à l'infographie. J'ai récemment branché l'iPad 2 d'Apple pour importer les photos et les vidéos sur le système de Fedora 17 roulant sur Gnome Shell 3.4. C'est remarquable qu'un réseau de logiciels libres peut supporter sans problème un dispositif conçu pour l'usage du logiciel iTune.

It will be a matter of time that horrible application that is iTunes will go the way of dinosaur.

Very disappointing because the shell needs hardware acceleration i.e 3D support. Even Sugar interface did a much better job despite its simple look. Picture speaks itself.

No network on Fedora 9 x86_64 follow up

Following my post related to NetworkManager . I have found out about the workaround. If you have x86_64 system with 4GB support enabled, you should disable it in order to make NetworkManager work. I am not sure if that bug affects other distributions so, possibly the bug may be related to the x86_64 kernel. Let see if my theory can be verified.
