Nokia EOS specs leaked,quad-core processor nd AMOLED display

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br style="background-color: #f8f8f8; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;" /><img src="http://s3.postimg.org/upbeb0ccz/Nokia_EOS_Pure_View.jpg" style="background-color: #f8f8f8; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;" /><br style="background-color: #f8f8f8; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;" /><span style="background-color: #f8f8f8; color: peru; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;">Nokia is planning to launch its next flagship phone, the EOS sometime this year. Not much was known about this Windows Phone except that it will sport a 41-megapixel PureView camera. Tipped by a source, a detailed list of specifications for the upcoming flagship phone has been posted.</span><br style="background-color: #f8f8f8; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;" /><span style="background-color: #f8f8f8; color: teal; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;">To start with, the EOS will sport an AMOLED display with support for 1280&times;768 resolution, a 2,000mAH battery and a 41-megapixel rear camera with Xenon and LED flash, a variable aperture lens and a detailed camera UI similar to the one seen on the PureView 808. In addition to the above, the EOS is also likely to feature an FM transmitter, a microSD card slot to expand the internal memory and a micro-HDMI port. The EOS, as we had reported before, is also likely to come in an aluminum casing instead of polycarbonate plastic, similar to the one on the rumored Catwalk, which Nokia is expected to unveil at an event in London next month.</span><br style="background-color: #f8f8f8; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;" /><span style="background-color: #f8f8f8; color: navy; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;">The report further states that Nokia is working on two variants of the EOS with similar specs but one is powered by a dual-core and the other by a quad-core version of a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor. The report though quotes the source as saying that the Finnish company is having some difficulty with power consumption on the quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor and the device may end up shipping with a dual-core processor for that reason.Well a good phone .Looking like an upgraded pureview with an windows phone OS</span></div>

Improve Power Usage / Battery Life In Linux With TLP

<div style="text-align: justify;">There are various tweaks that you can apply to your laptop to save battery power, but many of them depend on the hardware, Linux distribution, some are outdated or too hard to apply for regular users and so on. <b><a href="http://linrunner.de/en/tlp/docs/tlp-linux-advanced-power-management.html">TLP</a> is an advanced power management command line tool for Linux that tries to apply these settings / tweaks for you automatically, depending on your Linux distribution and hardware</b>.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUoZHLkj-t53y8oc49a1R8Dq7EcZ3V-1TZDEvcpBQWvj1hD36KMhu0xLcfM7RE11gEQRVJaS5ZHj9PbBa8poA-xkO3GjLrX4Wf0PfFWtOb_evtdVnZHJc5bxbK8nXRTfz5wgc9aHPIQhoo/s1600/system76-ubuntu-laptop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Ubuntu laptop" border="0" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUoZHLkj-t53y8oc49a1R8Dq7EcZ3V-1TZDEvcpBQWvj1hD36KMhu0xLcfM7RE11gEQRVJaS5ZHj9PbBa8poA-xkO3GjLrX4Wf0PfFWtOb_evtdVnZHJc5bxbK8nXRTfz5wgc9aHPIQhoo/s320/system76-ubuntu-laptop.jpg" title="Ubuntu laptop" width="320" /></a></div></div><br /><a name="more"></a><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>TLP applies the following settings depending on the power source (battery / ac):</b></div><ul><li>Kernel laptop mode and dirty buffer timeouts;</li><li>Processor frequency scaling including "turbo boost" / "turbo core";</li><li>Power aware process scheduler for multi-core/hyper-threading;</li><li>Hard disk advanced power management level and spin down timeout (per disk);</li><li>SATA aggressive link power management (ALPM);</li><li>PCI Express active state power management (PCIe ASPM) – Linux 2.6.35 and above;</li><li>Runtime power management for PCI(e) bus devices – Linux 2.6.35 and above;</li><li>Radeon KMS power management – Linux 2.6.35 and above, not fglrx;</li><li>Wifi power saving mode – depending on kernel/driver;</li><li>Power off optical drive in drive bay (on battery).</li></ul><br /><b>Additional TLP functions:</b><br /><ul><li>I/O scheduler (per disk);</li><li>USB autosuspend with blacklist;</li><li>Audio power saving mode – hda_intel, ac97;</li><li>Enable or disable integrated wifi, bluetooth or wwan devices upon system startup and shutdown;</li><li>Restore radio device state on system startup (from previous shutdown);</li><li>Radio device wizard: switch radios upon network connect/disconnect and dock/undock;</li><li>Disable Wake On LAN;</li><li>WWAN state is restored after suspend/hibernate;</li><li>Undervolting of Intel processors – requires kernel with PHC-Patch;</li><li>Battery charge thresholds – ThinkPads only;</li><li>Recalibrate battery – ThinkPads only.</li></ul><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">TLP applies these settings automatically on startup and every time you change the power source. To use it, all you have to do is install TLP, however, there are some settings that you can apply manually, overwriting the TLP default settings, such as enabling or disabling the WiFi, Bluetooth or Wwan (3G or UMTS) radios, switching between AC or battery settings, ignoring the actual power source, apply autosuspend for all attached USB devices or power off the optical drive. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are also some TinkPad-only settings that you can use, like temporarily changing the battery charge thresholds, temporarily set battery charge thresholds to factory settings, recalibrating the battery and more.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">For more about these settings, see the TLP <a href="http://linrunner.de/en/tlp/docs/tlp-linux-advanced-power-management.html">homepage</a> or consult the TLP manpage (type "<i>man tlp</i>" in a terminal).</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I've only been using TLP for a couple of hours so I can't say yet how efficient this tool is regarding battery life, but I've noticed that my laptop's temperature is lower than before using TLP. You may have seen an icon on my Unity launcher in some posts on WebUpd8, which displays a number that's usually around 65 - that's <a href="http://www.webupd8.org/2012/07/monitor-hardware-temperature-in-ubuntu.html">Psensor</a> and it displays the CPU temperature (Celsius; it's 165 degrees Fahrenheit) - here's an <a href="http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/get-ubuntu-touch-feeling-on-unity.html">example</a>. Well, after installing TLP, the CPU temperature didn't go past 55 degrees Celsius (135 degrees Fahrenheit), at least not yet, with regular desktop usage: using a browser with quite a few tabs open, a text editor and a few AppIndicators running, under Unity. This, of course, depends on various factors but so far this tool seems to do its job. Also, some Reddit users have <a href="http://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/1cdg2h/ubuntu_battery_draining_issues/">reported</a> that TLP makes quite a big difference.</div><br /><br /><br /><h2>Install TLP in Ubuntu</h2><br /><b>Before proceeding with the installation, there are a couple of things you need to do:</b><br /><ul><li>firstly, if you've added any power saving settings / scripts (e.g.: in <i>/etc/rc.local</i>), remove them or else TLP may not work properly;</li><li>remove laptop-mode-tools ("sudo apt-get remove laptop-mode-tools").</li></ul><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Ubuntu (and Linux Mint, etc.) users can install TLP by using its official PPA.

Apple’s iPhone 5S rumored to sport a 12- mp camera

It is confirmed through a source that the next iPhone or the iPhone 5S, as it is also known, will sport a 12- megapixel HD camera.</span><br style="background-color: #f8f8f8; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px;" /><br style="background-color: #f8f8f8; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px;" /><span style="background-color: #f8f8f8; color: teal; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px;">According to the report, the 12-megapixel camera will shoot photos in HD and also come with better night- time shooting capabilities. In addition to the source, this rumor also stays true that the iPhone 5S will sport a bigger 4.5-inch screen and will include a dual-LED flash stacked on top of one another to improve the phone’s low-light photo clicking abilities. </span><br style="background-color: #f8f8f8; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px;" /><br style="background-color: #f8f8f8; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px;" /><span style="background-color: #f8f8f8; color: navy; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px;">As with all rumors, this piece of news should also be taken with a pinch of salt, though a new iPhone with a bigger camera is what we have been expecting for some time now.

Fix: Google Chrome Can`t Be Installed In Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail Due To Missing libudev0 Dependency

<div style="text-align: justify;">Google Chrome can't be installed in Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail (fresh install) for now because of a missing dependency: libudev0. Until Google fixes this, here's how to install the missing dependency so you can use Google Chrome (any version) in Ubuntu Raring. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><i>You can install Chromium via Ubuntu Software Center instead of Google Chrome, but you won't get the extra features that Google has added to its browser, like the built-in PDF viewer, the latest <a href="http://www.webupd8.org/2012/02/adobe-flash-for-linux-will-only-be.html">Pepper Flash</a> and so on.</i></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://img.netupd8.com/google-chrome-raring-install-error.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="237" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVhUuYGqJbjLISKVUt2wOqW0r4aWa42_m9zj3CKGBmj1GvjGgV44MK5ooLEDKwbVUIQbt_iQdBus7266KhgZRTnmrtrEtfokHjfkwRTZRpnfAebfZDzpF5Xcwxu2NdOdLh_WaEZ7P8wXn7/s320/google-chrome-raring-install-error.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><a name="more"></a><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">I've upgraded from Ubuntu 12.10 to 13.04 and <i>libudev0</i> was kept during the upgrade so I didn't have any issues installing Google Chrome.
