The first contact portion has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and at least one part of the first contact portion has a thickness smaller than a thickness of the display unit. The input body includes a second contact portion with a contact surface. When the input body is detachably connected to the main body, the display unit is operable to rotate with respect to the input body, and the contact surface of the second contact portion is operable to engage with the first or second surfaces of the first contact portion by surface-to-surface contacting.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to automatically configuring a Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL) device port in an edge virtual bridging (EVB) network environment. One embodiment includes sending, by a virtual machine (VM) in an EVB network, a message to a device that implements TRILL protocol. The device communicates with a table using the message. Network information is obtained from the table by the device. A port for the device is automatically configured based on the network information. The device has the TRILL protocol either enabled or disabled.
Abstract: An interface switching control method, a portable terminal and a portable mobile device using the method are disclosed. The method is applied in a portable terminal including a first device and a second device. The first device is connected to a shared device via a first interface, and the second device is connected to the shared device via a second interface. The portable terminal has a first state in which the first device and the second device are connected, and a second state in which the first device and the second device are disconnected. The method includes detecting a state of the portable terminal; and when the detection result indicates that the portable terminal is in the first state, controlling the first interface to be in an enabled state and controlling the second interface to be in a disabled state. The method achieves a real-time switching control over the interfaces for the shard device, and optimizes the interface control for the hybrid-system portable terminal.
Abstract: An apparatus includes at least one grip mechanism of a rework nozzle configured to grip an electrical component that is soldered to a printed circuit board. The apparatus includes at least one spring coupled to at least one grip mechanism, where the spring is configured to move beyond a minimum threshold in response to an initiation of a melt of a solder that attaches the electrical component to the printed circuit board. The apparatus includes at least one sensor coupled to at least one spring, where the sensor is configured to detect the move of at least one spring beyond the minimum threshold. At least one sensor is configured to communicate at least one activate signal in response to detection of the move of one or more springs beyond the minimum threshold.
Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products to perform an operation comprising receiving, by a management console managing a server, a request to perform an operation on the server, determining that performance of the operation is associated with a deterministic failure in the server, and blocking performance of the operation by the management console, thereby preventing an occurrence of the deterministic failure in the server.
Abstract: When a media error occurs on a storage device of a number of storage devices of a redundant array, the logical stripe of data affected by the media error is determined. A portion of non-volatile memory is reserved and the logical stripe is backed up to this portion of non-volatile memory. A read request is subsequently serviced from the non-volatile memory and not from the storage devices. When a write request is received, it is first serviced to the storage devices. If successful, then the previously reserved portion of non-volatile memory is freed up, and subsequent requests are serviced using the storage devices. If unsuccessful, then the write request is serviced using the non-volatile memory.
Abstract: An information processing method and an electronic device are provided, the information processing method includes: detecting a version parameter of a first USB device connected to an electronic device; detecting a display resolution of the electronic device; determining whether the version parameter and the display resolution meet a predetermined conflict condition; and adjusting the display resolution of the electronic device in a case that the version parameter and the display resolution meet the predetermined conflict condition.
Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a system and method to enable and support vertical installation of a rack server midplane. The system is comprised of two primary components, including a guide and a bracket. The guide is secured to a server chassis, and is sized to receive the bracket. Upon receipt of the bracket, the bracket is held in position by the guide. The bracket is configured to frictionally hold the midplane in position. Installation of the bracket with the midplane within the chassis includes a direct installation of the bracket to the guide and an indirect installation of the midplane to the guide.
