NoteBook from Circus Ponies is pretty slick. I have used many different applications out there and was running with xPad for quite a while, but NoteBook seems to be a nice mix of what I need to do notetaking on OS X. Very happy with it.
If you are using Evocam on OSX for a webcam, you can change the Built-in Web Server setting
Display stream using: Server Push
This allows the live web video feed to be accessed via Safari on an iPod Touch or iPhone. Using the Java Applet works just fine on desktop browsers, but due to the lack of iPhone Java support, you have to go this route. Very slick. We use Evocam with an old iSight camera to check in on the dog from time to time and it is great to be able to do this via the iPhone. Evocam is the best webcam product out there on the Mac (nothing even comes close) and very much worth the license charge.
I had a lot of issues with getting a recent install of Galleon operational on Ubuntu Hardy Heron. I was running Galleon off and on for years on OS X, but seemed like it was time to get it going on Ubuntu.
Not Easy.
It seems they really gear Galleon on the linux-side to be most workable with RedHat / Fedora flavors of linux. I had a multitude of issues getting it operational and if you are trying to get this going, I hope this helps.
1. Disable IPv6. I know, it is the future, but again, we have to disable it to get better performance and/or have something we need just work. In Ubuntu Hardy, you
sudo vi /etc/modprobe.d/aliases
Change:
alias net-pf-10 ipv6
to
alias net-pf-10 off ipv6
Then
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
or reboot the computer.
2. Download the galleon distribution. Unzip it somewhere, and vi the Makefile to comment out or delete the lines referring to ‘chkconfig’ in the install and uninstall parts. It is a RH deal not a Ubuntu deal.
3. Perform the
sudo make install
4. It should put everything in /usr/share/galleon . Go there and vi galleon in the bin directory and comment out the line towards the top referreing to /init.d/functions. Again, a reference to a RH deal.
5. Then, vi the run.sh script in the /usr/share/galleo/bin directory to get rid of the extra stuff and just go with
#!/bin/bash
#
# Run the Galleon server
#
/usr/share/galleon/bin/galleon console
After doing the above, things actually started to work for Galleon and Hardy Heron!
Good luck!
