eCo-Books from eCo Software

2011-10-09 18:58:17 -- eCo Shop

eCo Software continues to sell Thinkpad notebooks with eComStation pre-installed. We offer the range: Thinkpad T42 ... T61 + X61 Tablet and X41 ... X61 + X41 Tablet. All notebooks are equipped with SSD disks and popular eCo Software applications (Sunny icons, DVD/CD Toys, Backup utility)

It's not easy to sell eCS notebooks, we are missing some tools. What applications are needed for the resellers of eComStation notebooks and barebones?

  • Benchmark tools. The customers want see the comparison marks.
  • Good SysInfo utility. We have old SysInfo/2 only.
  • Demo applications aimed to demonstrate the power of the system. (apps working in demo mode; video effects / slideshows enumerating eCS features)
  • Fullscreen launchpad. So novice user can launch standard application (email, browser or setup)
  • Simple system setup. Currently eCS setup utilities are located in different "corners" of the system.

The standalone developers can help to the resellers of eCS notebooks / barebones and develop additional tools.

Thinkpads and eComStation

2011-09-07 13:21:59 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [eCo Shop]

Thinkpads and eComStation There are many discussions in the Internet that eComStation should support only one model (family) of computers/notebooks. And Thinkpad is the closest claimant to this role.

It's terrible that the users don't record movies about installation and usage of eComStation on Thinkpad notebooks. You can make a movie and distribute it via ecomstation.tv site.


eCo Books: Mobile users

2011-08-29 21:30:47 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [ecomstation.ru]

You can see in european companies: the employee comes to the office with notebook, attaches it to large monitor and keyboard, starts work. In the evening he takes the notebook to home. Theare are many advantages in such approach.

eCo Software recommends to russian companies buy Thinkpad notebooks with eComStation pre-installed and equip every employee with the notebook and dock station.


Thinkpad notebooks - work horses

2011-08-15 01:33:09 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [ecomstation.ru]

eComStation and tablet: ASUS EEE Slate EP121

2011-07-11 12:07:01 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [ecomstation.ru]

Sigurd Fastenrath have installed eComStation 2.1 on tablet: ASUS EEE Slate EP121. (you can watch the clip)

CPU: Intel Dual-Core i5, 64GB SSD, 12.1" LED

Not all devices are supported, the future depends on developers of device drivers.

Seems that eComStation will be used on notebooks and tablets (with Intel CPU) more often, this means that the system should be changed to support this hardware (it's necessary modernize the User Interface and develop additional utilities/applications)


Week of inkjet printers

2011-07-04 13:15:35 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [ecomstation.ru]

The week is dedicated to collection of info about compatible/non-compatible inkjet printers (cheap). Our database contains 287 records only... Major part of the models are not manufactured anymore. Post new reports using the web-form.

Attention! The developers of solutions are interested to know the list of unsupported devices.

What is the driver? Restrictions?


Web-cameras in eComStation

2011-06-30 12:43:48 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [ecomstation.ru]

The work on USB stack continues during several monthes. Current version: updated USB host controller drivers: USBUHCD.SYS,USBOHCD.SYS,USBEHCD.SYS (2011/03/20)

It is possible to develop support for web-cameras now thank to the updated USB stack (iso transfer is implemented correctly)


eComStation and motherboards with EFI

2011-06-10 12:45:31 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [ecomstation.ru]

Some modern motherboards/notebooks are using EFI instead of BIOS (What is UEFI). You can find more and more articles that Hardware Manufacturers are going drop the support of BIOS and switch to EFI.

We are monitoring this topic since ~ 2005. Discussions:

Short conclusion:

  • There are more actual tasks today.
  • The manufacturers of motherboards are interested to keep compatibility with previous version of Windows OS. That's why EFI to emulate normal BIOS during several years.
  • Seems that the users are installing eComStation to motherboards with UEFI already (2011), no barriers.

Participation of standalone developers:

  • You can try to run eComStation on Macintosh computers. Make experiments with eComStation installatin CD. The boot stops at message related to "A20 gate" (?)
  • or publish an article: plan of work how to implement full support of UEFI in eComStation.

Help us collect information about communicators and mobile phones compatible with eComStation (visible to eCS as USB MSD device, wifi connectivity, supported modem, data sync)

Here is the list of tested models: 46 models. Add new reports or comment reports posted by other users.

How to setup the device? Is it necessary format disk (filesystem)? Which dialer to use? Do you use USB_ModeSwitch utility to enable the modem? How do you access Android / iOS devices from eComStation? How to syncronize data?

Generic video mode enabler

2011-04-05 23:48:44 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [Jan Lambert, http://news.ecomstation.nl/article.php?id=10652&group=ecomstation.support.hardware#10652]

Jan Lambert writes: i am attempting to build a generic installable video mode enabler. Robert Lalla has been doing yeoman service developing the technology and supporting Intel and AMD/ATI, however this leaves nVidia and several other options off the table.

The basic concept is working, but to increase the probability of success out of the box, and minimize the tester's time, i need some sample data. To get this, i would like users with DOS or OS2DOS running on thier machines to download a small batch command which uses debug to obtain VESA information. Instructions are in the readme.txt.
