Ende Januar/Anfang Februar bekam ich meinen IBM/Lenovo X60s und habe natürlich gleich ein “richtiges” Betriebssystem darauf installiert. Natürlich mit dem Hintergedanken, die XP Lizenz trotzdem zu nutzen, jedoch nur auf einer 10GB Partition am Ende der Platte und ohne den ganzen vorinstallierten Kram. Dummerweise hat da MS und Lenovo was tolles ausgeheckt um diesen Plan zu vereiteln. (Was jedoch nicht bedeutet, das es unmöglich ist. Im folgenden wird eine Möglichkeit aufgezeigt.

Hi, today I upgraded my server from Feisty to Gutsy and than again from Gutsy to Hardy. Problems?

Hi there, guess you have a python file, filled up with tabstops and now someone comes in and tells you, that tabstops are uncool and overall indenting should only use 4 spaces. With vim no problem: :set tabstop=4 :set expandtab :retab Done! Greetings to PhiBo ;-) Bye Sven

Hi there, today I tried to install OCS Inventory - an Open-Source tool for inventoring your PCs with mostly all data they provide. It took some time to figure out how to install the server in Scientific Linux 5, but after all - I got it ;-) For the clients I found a nice source-rpm which I can easily deploy via my rpm-repo and pdsh (parallel distributed shell). The client itself reports once a day to the server about its collected data.

Hi, as seen at my pal Philipp, I also wanted to see the current battery power in the bash prompt. So here is a script which works fine on my X60s. #!/bin/bash REMAIN=`grep "remaining capacity" /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state | sed 's/remaining capacity:\(.*\)mWh/\1/'` FULL=`grep "last full capacity" /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info | sed 's/last full capacity:\(.*\)mWh/\1/'` echo $[ $REMAIN * 100 / $FULL ]`</blockquote> Just save it for example in your home directory as bat.sh and make it executable with chmod +x bat.

Hi there, I just red an article on the german website heise.de about hacking Canon Digital Cameras. The project is called CHDK. Sounds really interesting to enhance the features of a standard camera. The only problem… I have a Casio ;-) Bye Sven

Hi there, this (easter) weekend, I had to fiddle around with an Asus WLAN router, a 56k modem (yes, in Germany we have places without DSL or similar things) and OpenWrt. And what should I say? It works! Thanks to OpenWrt.First of all, you need some packages which you can install with ipkg on the router: chat, ppp, various usb modules (see openwrt wiki for details) and the usb-serial module.
