Poi uno finisce ad usare sempre Debian =P
Per ruzzare volevo installare Fedora 13 su un eeepc, mi scarico la netinst da:
http://fedoraproject.org/it/get-fedora-all
la trasferisco su un pendrive con dd, faccio il boot, parte anaconda, mi chiede quale device è il media di installazione (/dev/sdb1), parte la modalità grafica di anaconda, mi chiede quali dischi vadano presi in considerazione per l’installazione, seleziono la flash interna e il pendrive e poi *stang* “The installation source given by device /dev/sdb1 could not be found.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=582887
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=568343
Il problema descritto è lo stesso, sono tutti chiusi ma a me non funge.
Idee?

An exceptional pain when using native GNU/Linux distros on Macbooks, it’s the totally awesomeness management of the fans: you could get very hot temperatures because fans will start only when thermonuclear temperatures are reached inside your machine.
Fortunately, it’s possible to manage fan speeds in userspace using the kernel module applesmc (modprobe applesmc or add it to /etc/modules), so I write a tiny bash script for doing the dirty work.
This script has been published to GitHub: http://github.com/gionn/macbook-fans
#!/bin/bash
# Settings
SMC=/sys/devices/platform/applesmc.768
TEMPMAX=90
TEMPMIN=45
FANMAX=6200
FANMIN=2000
# Thanks to god my cousin knows Math.
C1=$(( $FANMAX - $FANMIN ))
C2=$(( $TEMPMAX - $TEMPMIN ))
CF=$(( $C1 / $C2 ))
TM=$(( $CF * $TEMPMAX - $FANMAX ))
# Be sure that manual mode is disabled:
# we don't want to burn everything is case of a bug
echo 0 > $SMC/fan1_manual
echo 0 > $SMC/fan2_manual
while :
do
CORETEMP1=$(( `cat /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/temp1_input` / 1000 ))
CORETEMP2=$(( `cat /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.1/temp1_input` / 1000 ))
TEMP=$(( ($CORETEMP1 + $CORETEMP2) / 2 ))
SET=$(( $CF * $TEMP - $TM ))
echo $SET > $SMC/fan1_min
echo $SET > $SMC/fan2_min
sleep 2
done
You can put this script in /usr/local/bin/fans, chmod +x /usr/local/bin/fans and add it in /etc/rc.local for automatic startup on system boot.
I’ve recently discovered that both Ubuntu and Debian projects provide a single mirror to use if you put your hands on an outdated server with a discontinued release.
For Ubuntu you should use: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
For Debian you should use: http://archive.debian.org/debian/
With these mirror you should be able to deboostrap an old ancient Debian buzz (1.1) or Ubuntu Warty Warthog (4.10) :)
For work and for fun, I tried the Ubuntu Personal Package Archive infrastructure. It’s relatively easy to use, but the compilation times are really long (24 hr!).
At the time of writing, it’s available a glusterfs v3.0.4 backport from maverick and it’s in queue freeradius recompiled with JRadius module enabled.

In these days I put on production two different server (an internal machine and a EQ4 hetzner) using Proxmox as backend for managing virtual machines.
What is Proxmox?
Proxmox Virtual Environment is an easy to use Open Source virtualization platform for running Virtual Appliances and Virtual Machines.
Proxmox VE is an open source project, developed and maintained by Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH.

Google e HTC avevano detto che Android 2.2, codename Froyo, non sarebbe *MAI* stato disponibile per i “vecchi” HTC Dream e Magic (e molti altri device)
Questa è una versione di testing (RC1 RC3 – Changelog), ma che dovrebbe già esser abbastanza stabile per l’utilizzo di tutti i giorni.
E’ uscita la release stabile CyanogenMod 6.0.0 basata su Android 2.2
La procedura di aggiornamento del post precedente è sempre valida (DangerSPL è obbligatorio, ma non serve reinstallarlo ogni volta).
Download: XDA

Se per caso qualcuno stava già sperando che il nuovo WordPress 3.x fosse, diversamente dalla versione precedente, meno dissanguatore di memoria… beh, non ci conti affatto.
