Hardware :: Charge A Prestigio Libretto Per3362b Ebook Reader?
Apr 29, 2011
I've just bought a Prestigio Libretto Per3362b Ebook Reader from Amazon. According to the instruction sent with it I am supposed to connect it to a computer via a usb port and to press the power button to turn on/off the device. It is supposed to take 12 hours for the first time. These instructions make no sense to me (do I turn it on or off and how do I know if it's on or off?) and pushing the button seems to have no visible effect on the reader (no lights go on, etc.). Charging the thing for 12 hours has no obvious effect. Can anyone walk me through the initial charging operation?
I'M trying to install a e-book reader called Caliber Ebook managment using the info they have on the HP: wget -O- http://status.calibre-ebook.com/dist/src | tar xvz cd calibre* sudo python setup.py install
And get this message

zoku is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported. I have no Idea what the SUdoers are and why i'm not in them.
I have openSUSE 11.2, 64 bits. I use Evince from the very beginning. Since a few weeks, when I want to open a .pdf file, Acrobat Reader appears and reads my file. It seems to have become the default reader now. However, I never wanted to change from Evince :this simple program is well enough for me. I tried various ways, but I can't define Evince as my default .pdf reader. How can I make Evince to become my default reader again please ?
I was wondering if there is/are any software for ubuntu using which i can write ebooks? Or the only way is write it on the Word Processor and then export to PDF?
For a while now, I have multibooted my Vista installation with Ubuntu. However, up until now I have been happy with Ubuntu being in charge of my boot options. I am wanting to change my bootloader so that when my machine boots, and no choices are made at the boot menu, Vista automatically starts after a set amount of time instead of Ubuntu.
I know the boys over at APC have a guide on how to do this, but it involves copying information from the menu.lst file and using EasyBCD - I was wondering if these steps will still work now that I am running Karmic Koala, which I understand uses a different method of changing GRUB entries (manipulating the menu.lst file is no longer part of this process and is no longer recommended)
If someone could tell me how to put Vista in charge of my boot options so that it will boot automatically instead of Linux, that would be greatness.
I contacted the computer manufacturer, and I am under warranty, but it will take forever to get a new battery. I tried recalibrating it, and updating the BIOS, and still NOTHING. Why? It was working before... Any ideas or solutions... It stinks because I can only get like 1 hour battery on this thing now...
I've been tooling around with Fedora with the Fluxbox environment on my old Dell 400SD4 laptop and it works fantastic. I'm still getting a feel for the environment, but one major concern that I had was a battery meter. Being a laptop, it's important to know when I'm almost out of juice. Does anyone have any suggestions for a battery meter for Fluxbox? Preferably one that can be installed through the yum repositories?
So i just installed 10.04 LTS on my ibook G4 late 2004 model and it works great i partioned my Hd and have osx on 1 and ubuntu on the other and updated it last night and installed to drivers for wireless etc... but i dont see a way to monitor my battery status on the upper bar? when i try to add to panel there is no battery charge applet or whatever? when i enter this into the terminal " sudo add-apt-repository ppa:iaz/battery-status && sudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install battery-statusTerminal then asks for my password but it wont let me type any sort ofpassword? not even my login passwordo i do not know what passwordterminal wants when none of the keys work?
I am currently looking for an app that can enable me to convert ms word and/or openoffice docs into an ebook format compatible with Kindle (I have been using mobipocket creator on Windows to convert to .mobi but I am now trying to get rid of Windows completly), so far the only possibility I have found is Calibre and it wont allow me to cnvert Word docs into another format.
on a Powerbook with 10.10 installed. The battery icon doesn't show up in the indicator area next to the sound volume when I'm unplugged unless I select to have the icon displayed even when my computer is plugged in. And even then, it doesn't show current battery charge.I have added pmu_battery to /etc/modules , and /proc/pmu/battery_0 has relevant information on battery charge, and emacs seems smart enough to know my battery level.I tried to install pmud, and but that conflicts with pbbuttonsd and removing that would remove ubuntu-desktop! :O (I would like to try pmud and pommed, as those seem to have a better feature set than pbbuttonsd.)
I just updated to Calibre version 0.7.44 in Debian testing, on an amd64 system. Conversion worked with previous version, but now Calibre freezes as soon as I choose convert individual book. When I run top, I see that python is taking 100% of the cpu. The only way to stop calibre, which shows a grey screen, is to kill python. I got this message in the terminal after it shuts down;
[Code]...
If there is not way to fix this, Is there a way I can just reinstall the previous version of Calibre, even though only the new version is listed when I check in synaptic?
Reading and revising LaTex 20-page documents seems to be much more easier with a printout (hardcopy) then reading them off a screen. However, I cannot edit the document in real-time (just scrabble comments on the paper) which is cumbersome.
So it there a tablet or even better an ebook device (with e-ink which is easier on the eyes) where I can read document similarly to a printout and edit them in real-time?
I have a text file of a book I want to read on an ereader. The problem is that within the file there are page numbers and headers that make it look like this: Code: But then, getting into the heat of the work, 580 ANNA KARENINA and seeing how diligently and zealously Veslovsky pulled the cart by the splash-board, so that he even broke it off... o as you can see the header and page numbers break up sentences which makes it annoying to read.
I managed to use the find a replace tool in VIM to remove the page numbers and the header and join the lines together (If anyone is interested how I did it, let me know and I can post this. Although I admit that I probably did it in a very convoluted way). So now it looks like this:
Code: But then, getting into the heat of the work, seeing how diligently and zealously Veslovsky pulled the cart by the splash-board, so that he even broke it off... But now it has joined some lines I didn't want joined (ie lines where a page break fell at the same place as a paragraph break). So some parts look like this (the XI being the number of the next section):
Code: 'A fine marsh! Veslovsky must have hampered you. It's inconvenient for two with one dog,' said Stepan Arkadyich, softening his triumph.XI When Levin and Stepan Arkadyich came to the cottage of the muzhik with whom Levin always stayed... My question is: is there a way to use an if statement or something to ensure that it formats the book correctly. For example, could I get vim (or something else for that matter) to check to see whether the line ends with a period or a quotation mark, and next line begins with a capital letter or another quotation mark and exempt those lines from the join command?
I had install ubuntu 10.04 last two days, and when the start up it shows this message. To open the laptop i also have to using battery only i cant charge while using the laptop and if not it will hang and the screen will freeze. I'm using aspire 2920 is this because of my laptop or something else. Can anybody tell me dude? D
Which cataloging app would you recommend? I have ebooks in pdf, chm, epub etc. Currently testing tellico. Tags fetching and auto opening the book would be a bonus.
trying to find the best pdf reader. adobe reader is ok but with 10-11 pdfs opened, scrolling through each pdf, it gets kind of annoying having to physically click the inside of each pdf to scroll down, instead of switching tabs, and getting focus automatically
the default PDF viewer is pretty slow. i have about 200 pages with a great amount of images and adobe reader searched a lot faster. i find myself having to wait about 40-45 seconds for it to scan the whole PDF.
anyone have any suggestions out there on a better pdf reader?
i've been using foxit pdf reader on Windows for sometime now, on Fedora i can't find any pdf reader that has tab feature so i can use only one window because i get to open a few pdfs at one time.
I have tried installing Foxit under WINE but scrolling through the pages takes forever
anyone know of any good pdf reader that has tab feature? i'm surprised that the outcomes of my searches haven't brought up a single Linux pdf reader that has tab feature...
Is there an easy to use log reader, without needing to be root. My typing is goofy and doing su and vi to read a log is getting old. Using 2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.x86_64
I have installed ubuntu 10.10 netbook edition on my hp mini 1010nr. i went to upload some photos on my sd reader and nothing happened. is there some way to make ubuntu recognize the reader as a usb port.
I don't know why and when the Adobe Reader 8 was installed in my system and its icon appears in the Application-> Office menu. Its interface is not English. So I want to uninstall it. I cannot find it in the list of System-> Administration-> Add/Remove Software.
I installed adobe reader quite some time back. It was working fine. Nowadays it gets stuck up and then the screen fades out and then after some seconds it gets back to normal. What could be the problem.
