[SOLVED]fastboot wired errors

Problem:

When trying to flash a device using fastboot, i.e. via commands "fastboot -w flashall", get errrors like

"error: neither -p product specified nor ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT set"

or

"error: error: could not load android-info.txt"

Solution:

First, you want to make sure the environment variable ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT is properly set to the out/target/product/your_product/ directory

Second, double check if all images(boot.img, system.img, userdata.img, caches.img, recovery.img) are there in that directory and an text file "android-info.txt" exits.

If all images are generated and ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT is set, then you might have to flash images one by one. It seems that the "flashall" command is problematic sometimes.

Commands:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

[SOLVED]""required virtual size does not fit available size: requested=(2304, 768), minimum=(320, 200), maximum=(1280, 1280)""

Platform:
                 Ubuntu 11.10(or other releases, not sure)
Diagnosis:
                 Unable to set up dual(multi)-displays, with an error message like ""required virtual size does not fit available size: requested=(2304, 768), minimum=(320, 200), maximum=(1280, 1280)""
Solution:
                 Modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, to set the "Virtual" parameters properly.
                 sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf
                 Locate section "Screen", create a subsection "Display" with a parameter "Virtual" with the values indicated as required in the error message, e.g. 2304 and 768 here.
                 Subsection "Display"
                ... // other parameters if any

               Virtual 2646 1024
         EndSubsection

                  Log out and log in, go to "Displays...", uncheck "Mirror displays", apply.

[COPIED]Install fcitx on Ubuntu 11.10

The default repositories of Ubuntu 11.10 cannot find fcitx. You need to install through ppa.

小企鹅fcitx的安装方法：

fcitx与scim输入法有冲突，安装之前首先确认scim是否安装，如果安装了scim，就先卸载scim。

1	sudo apt-get purge scim

然后开始安装fcitx：

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fcitx-team/nightly sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install fcitx fcitx-config-gtk fcitx-sunpinyin sudo apt-get install fcitx-table-all im-switch -s fcitx -z default #设为默认输入法

最后注销用户再重新登录，小企鹅fcitx输入法就生效了。

fcitx支持自定义皮肤。现在网上有一些很漂亮的fcitx皮肤，可惜这些皮肤只支持fcitx 4.0，通过PPA源安装的fcitx是最新版本fcitx 4.1.2, 我只找到一款支持fcitx 4.1.2的皮肤 – 四叶草：四叶草 fcitx 4.1.2皮肤下载地址。下载完，解压文件，然后把解压出来的文件夹放到~/.config/fcitx/skin/文件夹下，如果没有skin文件夹，就新建一个。

如果想让老皮肤fcitx 4.0支持最新版本的fcitx 4.1.2，有两种解决方法：

1.解压皮肤，然后按照上面的提示信息修改文件，按照你使用fcitx的版本号进行修改
2.使用你机器上fcitx的默认皮肤，然后打开fcitx配置工具，参照现有皮肤参数一点点修改…
