eee pc
If you're used to typing on a full-size keyboard, you'll find that the right Shift key is next to the / key. But on the Eee PC, the right Shift key is located one key further to the right. Because the Up key is located on the Eee PC where you'd expect to find the Shift key, you may find as you are typing that any time you go to capitalize a letter that you type with your left hand (e.g. an A), instead of capitalising the A, you instead move your cursor up a line and end up inserting an 'a' in the middle of some other word. Frustrating! You may decide you'd like your layout to be more like your full-size laptop. Here's how to do it.
If you set a computer for auto logon, anyone who can physically obtain access to the computer can gain access to all of the computer contents, including any network or networks it is connected to. In addition, if you enable autologon, the password is stored in the registry in plaintext. The specific registry key that stores this value is remotely readable by the Authenticated Users group.
As a result, this setting is only appropriate for cases where the computer is physically secured, and steps have been taken to ensure that untrusted users cannot remotely access the registry.
I just get my 2nd eee pc from taiwan. The default language is in chinese. Since I don't know chinese, I need to change the default language for this eee pc. here is the steps taken from eeeuser.com forum:
- Press ctrl-alt-T to opn terminal
- type this in 'sudo /usr/bin/oowriter /etc/default/locale &'
- change file to say 'LANG=en_US.UTF-8'
- Reboot. That should do it.
