How to get Full Range RGB from Intel HD Graphics?
11 May 2012 | 11:07 amHas anyone found the trick to get Intel HD Graphics 3000 (on a SandyBridge 2500K) to output full range RGB to a full range capable digital television? With my TV, it is impossible to get the iGPU to output Full range RGB. Both "Full" and "Limited" settings look the same, flat washed out. I tried connecting both directly to the TV and via the my Onkyo TX-SR605. Then I went back to my ATI card, changed it from Full to Limited RGB, and the colors there now looked just as flat and washed out as the iGPU always outputs. My TV is a Samsung DLP 50A650.

Re: The new SCC Linux modifications

In addition (and more importantly), I wanted the kernel to create device files in /dev automatically (via devtmpfs), and I did not know how that can be done with cdev-s.

Re: How do multi-threaded programs perform when run on a single-thread processor?

It is split CPU time into time slices (130 ms) and within slices to quantums (10 ms). The forefront app (which window is active & have user input focus) will receive 75% of timeslice, other apps will share remaining 25%, by 10 ms parts (we claim that all apps have same priority). In case of multithreaded apps every process created by app is threated as another app. So, if one app created many processes, they all will fight for CPU time with other apps… -

These changes made the library incompatible with previous channels. The name invasive is in reference to the german project InvasIC. The idea behind this…

Greatness starts by doing the small things right
23 Apr 2012 | 5:57 pmAcross the globe, researchers, educators and organizations are studying the reasons behind declining degrees in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) fields – and there is no shortage of data on “the problem.” However, it is extremely rare to find research or information on how to fix this decline; there’s no 5 step model of how to birth, deliver STEM graduates, and keep them in STEM careers. There are no books on how to decode STEM challenges or where best to have a STEM intervention – yet in every corner of every cube lies an opinion about the problem. -
