Old blog imported

MySQL and apache managed to fix themselves on aptitude update and so I have manage to import the old blog enteries.

However update has wrecked my NVIDIA graphics driver. I’m already missing Beryl and Xorg

Merged ltbot and ruby_bot

A couple of the linuxteens guys started writing a IRC bot in ruby today, well it is now the official ltbot development tree! It is under a BSD license and is available through svn!

Got ISO

Downloaded the 64 bit Kubuntu Feisty Fawn ISO to burn and install on my new laptop. Windows will be off it as soon as I know I have a rescue disc (to install in a virtual machine).

Now I just have to wait ’till my birthday.

New Laptop

It’s my birthday pretty soon (18th) and so a laptop was ordered on sunday.

Welcome

Hello and welcome to my new blog.
I never did fix my MySQL problems so I can’t import my old blog posts, sorry.

I think the CEO’s of a lot of record companies need to be forced to write a 1000 lines of

Copy Protection: A clever method of preventing incompetent pirates from
stealing software and legitimate customers from using it.

Then maybe we might be able to play our music. I found it on the GNU humor pages.

I’m also going to change some of the apache error messages.

Unvalid RSS Feeds

I had included the web 2.0 youtube video as an embedded object but wordpress + complete RSS didn’t strip out the object as I had expected it to.

Webmin deleted my enabled apache virtual servers and Beryl is crashing on loadup. So I’ve had a fun day.

web 2.0

A good youtube video about Web 2.0

Window decorations fixed

I just didn’t have both the
Option “AddARGBGLXVisuals” “True”
and the window decorations plugin turned on at the same time
All works now though.

PHPMyAdmin still not working though.

More SSL problems

I was remote accessing my server through webmin at school and wanted to use my own CA and ssl certificate however being that I was using SSL in my access generating a new certificate authority certificate causes problems. Without updating both certificates simultaneously you can’t do it while using the same SSL tunnel. You can’t sign the second certificate until you’ve generated the first. My brain starts to hurt.

In the end I generated the CA certificate, locked myself out and fixed it when I got local access at home by turning off SSL and logging in locally (after I closed ports on router) to generate the main certificate. Easy! Although one of my teachers, who doesn’t understand public key cryptography and asked why I couldn’t remember my password, laughed. The ones who did understand cryptography were fine though.
