When cloning a Linux/Debian system 1:1 you should have a checklist of what’s important to change on the cloned system. For cloning I use the grml Linux Live-CD of course (the following tips are part of grml-tips as well). To create a 1:1 clone I boot grml on the systems (usually using the ssh=password bootoption […]

The battery of your laptop keeps getting drained even though you are using Suspend-To-Disk [STD]? (No, I’m not talking about Suspend-To-RAM!) That’s what happens at least on my Lenovo ThinkPad X61s notebook. Thankfully there exists a workaround: Check out what suspend method you use: # cat /sys/power/disk [platform] test testproc shutdown reboot So by default […]

… or something like that… I planned to write a short note about how to start with using git-svn so I can provide a pointer to some of my colleagues. It turned out that git has too many nice features that you should be aware of. :) Hopefully my notes (now being a reference for […]

Currently there are some routing problems to the newsserver of Albasani.net. I can’t reach the newsserver from the system where I’m reading news, but through another system ($GATEWAY) which is located at another ISP without any problems. Solution? ssh -L 9999:news.albasani.net:119 $GATEWAY NNTPSERVER=localhost:9999 slrn -f $NEWSRC Simple. No further setup changes. Just. Works.

Wenn mir Jörn schon mal ein Stöckchen zum Thema "Wie benutzt Du Deine virtuellen Desktops?" zuspielt, mach ich natürlich gerne mit. :-) Ich hab auf meinem Linux-Desktop 12 virtuelle Desktops. Die Zahl 12, weil ich genau diese mit Alt-F1 bis Alt-F12 ansteuern kann. Meine statische Belegung der Desktops schaut wie folgt aus: 1: Konsole, mit […]

I usually don’t blog links to external ressources without adding any further information, but too many people I’ve met in the last few days aren’t aware of the following docs: Ulrich Drepper’s "What every programmer should know about memory" (PDF) D. J. Bernstein’s "Some thoughts on security after ten years of qmail 1.0" (PDF) Proceedings […]

Your buddy list in ICQ (especially when using centericq/centerim) seems to be shorter than usual since a few days? Check bug 39 in centerim’s bug tracking system. Ok, just another chance to get rid of the centericq/centerim stuff, right? One option is to use the IRC instant messaging gateway BitlBee (especially if you are used […]

Just a short notice: if you have to deal with the IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter (RSA) under Linux and it does not work with Firefox: use Opera instead. In Firefox the keyboard inside the remote console java applet does not work (at least on several boxes I’ve being working on) whereas it does in Opera. […]

Experienced on a grml-developer meeting by gebi: Stupid 32 vs. 64bit problem. See unison’s FAQ and #404697 for more information. Workaround: just use the 32bit binary on the 64bit system. The real solution would be to use a current version of unison (>=2.27) – though the latest stable release of unison is still version 2.13 […]
