Fedora repository updates

Just to let my RPM repository users know, I’ve taken the public holiday today as a chance to clean out all the stuff that’s replicated in Extras now as well as update some apps that haven’t had any love for a while. I’m fairly sure that

New site design - it's here!

It’s arrived! In case you’ve missed the rest of the site, I’ve pushed the staging branch to the world in it’s black and green(ish) glory. It may not to be to all tastes but at least it’s better than the old layout. It doesn’

Hardware with a case of the Mondays...

Good grief, Charlie Brown. I wonder why the hell I ever got involved with technology. Saturday: I’ve needed a printer / scanner to replace my venerable (and often dodgy) Lexmark and Genius combo (the Lex part having never worked with Linux but OK with Win), so I pick up a

A story saved for posterity.

The redesign of the site is progressing well and I would expect it to be essentially complete by the weekend at the latest. I’ve had to make some calls regarding stuff that should stay and go – among the casualties is my old Journal, which will remain but have no

New site coming.

I’ve currently got a new site design in my internal staging environment, so the old 1990’s style of page you’re currently seeing on my site should be … better. I’ll be making good use of the Gallery2 software I installed previously, as maintaining the images / galleries is

Some changes around...

Firstly, you might have noticed a change in theme (basically went back to the default Kubrick theme for WordPress) This isn’t strictly by design, as my original choice of theme breaks in subtle ways under WP 2.1 and I haven’t had time to fix it. Mind you,

No IPv6 :-(

Folks, It seems my IPv6 routed range and tunnel have been offline for the best part of the week. I’ve tried multiple times to rebuild it and that part of it’s fine – but once it hits the other end of the tunnel, no route to any host. So

Back to the grind, with much to think about.

Tuesday has seen me back in the office – admittedly not the first work-related day back, as I went on-call for one of my colleagues on Saturday morning owing to a tragic family accident (my thoughts are with them). Fortunately it’s not been busy, so flare-out (too much too quickly

Holiday halfway point.

One full week to go before I’m back to the grind (something I’m not looking forward to, but I have to eat) I’ve at least managed to get something different in this time – a visit to the new Modern Art Gallery [http://www.qag.qld.gov.au/

...so he tries to get too frickin' clever..

…and almost loses. As noted in my last entry, I picked up a gigabit switch in the post Christmas sales along with a suitable network card. Today, being a generally wet/overcast day (meaning “watch cricket on the TV and hack around a bit if it’s slow”) I picked
