Debian Squeeze on HP 5103 mini netbook

I must say that the (XP883PA) HP 5103 Netbook mini is a fantastic little laptop.

The overall finish is nice and is a robust little machine.

The keyboard is very nice to type with feels nice a solid. The keyboard is 95% of a full size qwerty keyboard so you miss type words by pressing the wrong keys on the smaller keyboards,. very nice feel when typing. Keys will not pop off like the old style of keyboard so your not likely to loos keys and unlikely to brake off and the keyboard is spill resistant. Mind you I’m not going to test that.

The overall finish of the laptop is very nice, not too many glowing lights or additional unnecessary buttons like  multimedia buttons a nice Fn key to change button functions.

Power button is in an obvious place dead center just above the keyboard, no need to turn the laptop around just to find a power button. Not like to Sony or Dell notebooks having the power button on the side and the wireless hardware on and off is very obvious on the front just to the left to the touch pad..

I noticed the to use the F1, F2, F3 keys above the numbers you need to use the Fn key before using them. A bit annoying because I use F11 for full screen a lot because of the small screen and F5 for refresh. If you dont press the Fn key before pressing F5 your laptop goes to sleep. Mmm minor oversite for a useful F5 refresh  key.

The caps lock has a nice blue light on it. When caps lock is on the light is on. No guessing here.

Overall finish is very nice metal finish. Coffee brown colour very nice.. At first I had lots of finger prints on it but now its good. no fingerprints.. Who want’s a laptop with fingerprints all over it.

I do missing having a middle mouse button for copying text from a terminal window but maybe there is another way instead of copy and paste.

Bye bye BIOS and hello UEFI “Unified Extensible Firmware Interface”. This laptop uses the replacement for the old traditional BIOS blue screen another very cool feature of the notebook. I’m still to build a recovery partition on my laptop to use the full features for system restores. It will save having to create a USB bootable key for system recoveries if needed.

More information can be found at http://www.uefi.org

I think a lot of thought has gone into the design of this netbook very robust and solid. I’ve seen so many laptops with broken LCD panels from users picking up their laptops via the screen . Even the LCD panel is robust to take a few day to day knocks and bumps.

Excellent design and I would rate it 8 out of 10.

Minus a point for, the LCD Screen doesn’t open 180 Degrees but the viewable angles are great.. F5 key puts the laptop to sleep by default. no middle mouse button. Wireless drivers have not been developed yet for the Linux Kernel.

Other then that a very nice laptop and I would recommend it to others. I even got an additional 3 years accidental damage and hardware warranty for next business day onsite warranty for only $265 AUS (UK729E – Care Pack ). I have piece of mind to know my laptop will last 4 years at a total cost of $949 + 3 years additional warranty $265 = $1214. I know you can get other netbooks cheaper but I can be assured it’s going to last 4 years and it’s only about $303 per year. Not bad for something I’m going to use everyday.

Performance
I am very pleased with very fast and I also run Windows XP virtual machines and other Linux virtual machines on this machine and they run nicely. On my old machine I would see disk performance issues but the hard disk handles it well. This laptop has a 7200rpm drive. I’ve had other laptops with 7200rpm drive but disk read/writes appear to be much faster. This may be because the hard disk supports SATA Rev 2.

My system came with Windows 7 but I haven’t tested the performance with that because I loaded Debian as soon as I could once I worked out how to image the disk and build a USB Debian boot key.

Battery Life on Debian. If I leave it on on my desktop at work without doing much I’ll get about 8 hours but using all the features I’ll probably get about 5-6 hours. Very nice battery life.

ISSUES I’VE HAD - Doesn’t appear to have Linux Wireless support yet. I know this netbook is still very new so maybe we’ll see the drivers supported into the future.

Wireless LAN

01:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM43224 802.11a/b/g/n [14e4:4353] (rev 01)

The brcm80211 is does not currently support this wireless card

http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43

I gave it ago anyway but found it worked for a little while but dmesg would create kernel errors and my system would hang.

Will probably have to wait for a driver to be developed.

It appears that some development has occurred and my Netbook doesn’t crash so much and appears to be usable as long as I don’t have high traffic on my wifi.

Installing firmware for Wireless Lan non-free package

#apt-get install firmware-brcm80211

Note:  ” 43224/5 has a locking issue, stable with maxcpus=1, can crash otherwise after random period.”

http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/brcm80211

I’ve tried setting the option brcm80211 maxcpus=1 but this still doesn’t work.
Known issue: I’ve been unable to get the wireless stable and still causes my system to kernel panic.

As per http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers This card

WWAN & GPS
Still working this one out.

Microsoft Windows poor mans backup solution with email notifications

There are so many backup solutions out there but sometime the simple ones can do just the same job for free.

Assumptions
Computers now days usually have 2 partitions C for system data and D for User Data

Backup Device
USB Hard Disk to backup your data to.

Required software
robocopy.exe this is a free Micosoft copy utility that is part of the Windows 2003 resouse kit tools.

ntbackup.exe is a built in backup utility in Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server platforms.

mailsend.exe allows you to send emils via the command line to an smtp mail server.

STEP 1: BACKING UP SYSTEM STATE AND COPYING DATA VIA ROBOCOPY

Download and save robocopy.exe into D:\backup\bin

create a folder maybe D:\backup\scripts\
create a batch file by right clicking File new –> txt file
rename this file to backup.bat

paste the following lines into the batch file and change <DESTINATION USB DRIVE LETTER> to the USB drive letter eg W

You may want to clean your temp files from your system see Clean Temp Files

::== START OF SCRIPT ==
ntbackup backup SystemState /M normal /F <DESTINATION USB DRIVE LETTER>:\systemstate.bkf

:: Backing up your C drive to your USB Drive creating a log file for you to check your backup errors
D:\backup\bin\robocopy.exe /MIR /NP /R:2 /W:1
/LOG:<DESTINATION USB DRIVE LETTER>:\backup_C.log C:\ <DESTINATION USB DRIVE LETTER>:\backup\daily\C\ /XD “System Volume Information” RECYCLER TEMP Temp* /XF pagefile.sys Temp*

:: Backing up your D drive to your USB Drive creating a log file for you to check your backup errors including your system State from ntbackup
D:\backup\bin\robocopy.exe /MIR /NP /R:2 /W:1  /LOG:<DESTINATION USB DRIVE LETTER>:\backup_D.log D:\ <DESTINATION USB DRIVE LETTER>:\backup\daily\D\ /XD “System Volume Information” RECYCLER TEMP Temp* /XF pagefile.sys Temp*

:: ==END OF SCRIPT==

STEP 2: SCHEDULING BACKUP.BAT TO RUN

Now go to control panel –> Scheduled tasks –> now schedule the batch script (D:\backup\scripts\backup.bat to run daily / weekly /monthly whenever you need the backup to run. You will need to run this as Administrator so when it prompts you for the user credentials just enter your Administrator’s details.

You can also use the at command to schedule the backup.

STEP 3: EMAILING LOG FILES WHEN BACKUP COMPLETE

Add the following lines to the bottom of the script

Save the mailsend.exe file into D:\backup\bin\

::== START OF SCRIPT ==

…

D:\backup\bin\mailsend.exe -smtp mail.bigpond.com -f This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. -t This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. -sub “%hostname% – C Drive Backup” -i <DESTINATION USB DRIVE LETTER>:\backup_C.log

D:\backup\bin\mailsend.exe -smtp mail.bigpond.com -f This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. -t This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. -sub “%hostname% – D Drive Backup” -i <DESTINATION USB DRIVE LETTER>:\backup_D.log

:: ==END OF SCRIPT==

This gives you the concept anyway you will need to learn the commands to get it customised to exactly how you need it. I’ve made the assumption that your using a Bigpond ISP.

IMPORTANT: The backup may fail and it’s up to you to check your email log files to check that your files were backed up.
