I am struggling with a Windows CE device that locks up occasionally when the network cable is unplugged. It is running Windows CE 5.0 and the NIC driver is SMSC911x. It is running version 1.01, and I am unsure where to look for source updates for this driver. Does anybody know where to find an update for this driver and/or have any experience with the driver not behaving on network disconnect with a similar device? Extensive Googling reveals lots of Linux drivers, but not much on the CE front.
Regards,
Freddy
I see a download for CE 5.0 and 6.0 on SMSC's site at the bottom of the page here. It's on the LAN9218 page, but the driver is for "LAN91xx/LAN92xx/LAN9311/LAN9312" so it should apply.

I am configuring several Windows 10 systems that will need to reliably connect via ODBC using system DSNs to both Progress version 9.x and Progress version 10.x databases.
I have been told by one of our IT staff that interfacing with Progress versions 9.x servers require the OpenLink ODBC client software, while interfacing with Progress 10.x requires the OpenEdge ODBC client software.
I am not completely confident that this is true, but I have not been able to find any authoritative documentation citing version compatibilities between these technologies/products. Can someone please direct me to information about the compatibility between these products, pertaining specifically to versions of these products?
It was version 8 that required OpenLink.
Version 9 is unspeakably ancient and version 10 not much better. The current release is OpenEdge 12. ODBC options for v9 should include Progress/Datadirect ODBC since the SQL-92 engine was introduced in that timeframe. Documentation for such things is going to be very, very sparse.
Progress' current ODBC documentation: https://www.progress.com/odbc/openedge might get you started though.
OpenLink does also support v9 and they have some documentation here: http://wikis.openlinksw.com/UdaWikiWeb/MigratingFromSQL89ToProgress10SQL92Connectivity
In the Progress 9 windows client, there is a 32bit ODBC driver for Progress 9. However, if the program you are trying to connect to Progress from is 64 bit, this will not work directly.
We have succeeded in using an old 32bit version of SQL Server as a tunnel, creating SQL Server views on the Progress database and querying these views using a SQL Server ODBC driver from the 64 bit program.
It's messy and awkward, and I wouldn't want to vouch for the robustness of such a solution, but if this is only a stopgap then perhaps it may help.
OpenLink provide Progress SQL-92 ODBC Driver for version 9.x, 10.x & 11.x and can provide such connectivity to both 32 & 64 bit Windows applications, see http://wikis.openlinksw.com/UdaWikiWeb/InstallProgress92LiteWin32 ...
I have recently purchased OrangePi's Lite2 development board, with Allwinner H6 SOC, which includes Quad-Core A53 + T720 Mali GPU.
In the H6 SPEC, it clearly states that the GPU supports OpenCL 1.1 API, however, the Ubuntu (Desktop vesrion) image I've installed from OrangePi's site doesn't include the OpenCL driver and I cannot find it anywhere on the web.
Is it possible that although the GPU itself supports OpenCL (in terms of hardware) Allwinner never implemented the driver for it? Or am I supposed to somehow recompile the Linux kernel with the Mali drivers?
As stated in Arm Community:
In this instance the SoC (System on chip) for the OrangePi2 is by Allwinner. You will need to contact Allwinner and ask them if they are willing to provide Shenzhen Xunlong Software the binaries you need for the OrangePi2.
The respone I got from AllWinner was:
Sorry，we do not open the OpenCL driver platform.
Which I translated as "Good luck in your future endeavors"
I'm having an app that processes some DSL and draws a page. That app is qt-based. I need to work with DSL not with QT. When processing that DSL an app throws the following error
OpenGL ARB_framebuffer_object extension is not available
My laptop is rather old. I'm running Windows Vista, my gfx card is ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics. I tried to install ATI Radeon HD 4850 X2 Catalyst Driver 9.1 WHQL Vista and Hydravision pack for Vista and that did not help.
Can someone tell me whether I can fix the problem on my laptop and how?
The error message is pretty straightforward: your hardware just doesn't support the required extension.
And it's common knowledge software developers hate hardware problems :)
We have a application which integrates a 3rd party scanning component - Dynam .NET TWAIN. It's working well with my HP scanjet 5700. Recently, we got Cannon LiDE210 but it doesn't work. I finally noticed that our application needs to work with TWAIN compatible drivers.
How can I verify if my scanner driver supports TWAIN? We are going to send the application to other customers. I am looking for a easy way to find out if my clients' scanners support TWAIN.
Thank you.
There is a handy tools called TWACKER...Make sure you run it as admin. Choose File->Select Source, and see if your scanner is listed there. If your scanner is listed, it means you are using a TWAIN driver, in which you can have a further scanning with different scanning settings to check your scanner's TWAIN compatibility. Otherwise, you need to find a TWAIN drvier for your scanner.
You can download TWACKER on http://www.twain.org/scannerdriverdevelopers/specification-and-tools.html .
Cheers.
Inspector Twain could be what you're looking for.

I'm sure the Canon LiDE 210 is TWAIN compatible, or rather, has a TWAIN driver. If it isn't working with your Dynamsoft software, they (Dynamsoft) would be the first place to go for support.
But before you contact Dynamsoft, you should check that you have the correct Canon TWAIN driver installed for your version of Windows, and that it can scan from your scanner.
For some reason, Canon Asia has a better page on this driver than Canon USA:
http://support-asia.canon-asia.com/contents/ASIA/EN/0100294501.html
I hope I don't need to say this: You should only download and install drivers from the scanner vendor's website(s)!
To verify that a TWAIN driver is working, I & my colleagues often scan from IrfanView - it's free, millions of copies in use, and has code that works with pretty much any TWAIN driver. If IrfanView can't scan from your scanner, the TWAIN drive either isn't installed or isn't working - at that point you should look to the scanner vendor for support, in this case, Canon.
PS I admire Irfan Skiljan's work, but have no other connection with IrfanView.
PPS As you may have figured out by now (especially if you played with Twacker or Inspector Twain), "TWAIN Compatibility" isn't an all-or-nothing thing. Different scanners support different sets of TWAIN features, and nearly every TWAIN driver violates the TWAIN standard in SOME way. But don't get me started on that. ;-)
Current desktop application is developed using PowerBuilder version 9 with Oracle 9.2 as a back end. Now I need to migrate the back end Oracle to 11.2.0.2. From Googling I found PowerBuilder 9 is no longer supported. Is it possible to connect to Oracle 11.2.0.2 with PB 9? Kindly let me know if I can migrate the same application to higher version of PB like PB 11?
If you look at this response from Terry Dykstra you'll see your options under PB9 are:
the O90 driver, ODBC, OLEDB or JDBC
As for migrating to a higher version, migrating to higher versions of PB are typically comparatively small efforts (but no guarantees), assuming you have all the source code.
You mention upgrading to PB11. Keep in mind that PB11 also is no longer supported. Sybase (now an SAP company) typically supports current and previous major versions (with some overlap), so right now that means 12.5 and 12.0.
Good luck,
(another) Terry
