UPDATE (11/28/07): mrxvt 0.5.3
Thanks to nirik in #fedora-devel@irc.freenode.net I was able to work through an issue with building the latest mrxvt. I was a dumb dumb and didn't follow the doc properly. Shame on me. Anyway, I'm super busy with stuff and right now, love Androids! Get the latest mrxvt here or be square!
UPDATE (10/10/07): littlehat-0.2
Well, well...littlehat is in the wild! I've managed to create my first "distro" of sorts and it's called "littlehat." littlehat will get much better but for now you can download it, boot to a prompt and use google as the root password. I will work on getting it trimmed down and will probably add a few other tweaks including a new package manager in the near future. I will publish build scripts soon too!
UPDATE (09/08/07): Blog and kernelMaker:
I installed my blog today. I also worked on my kernelMaker a little bit. Now I'm off to go work on an article, school and the frankencluster...
UPDATE (08/27/07): Debian Slug and Office Cam:
So I got my debian slug running and setup my cam in my office window.
UPDATE (08/26/07): Updates on summer tasks:
I'm going to start writing for LinuxJournal, now how cool is that?
I've written a small program to download and install new kernels for folks that are interested in helping test new kernel builds. It's not totally done yet, but it's quite close. I've called it kernelMaker. The need for such a program sprung from a speech Andrew Morton gave at LinuxWorld 2007 this year, so I figured I'd throw my hat in the "ring" to see what I could do with Perl.
I've also started to write a testbed monitoring and deployment utility using usbip.
UPDATE (07/30/07): iPhone vs. OpenMoko and Fedora Update:
mrxvt and astyle are both in Fedora updates as of a few weeks ago. I will be posting an update for mrxvt soon, depending upon when the development team releases their next tarball.
The people at FedoraUnity.org thought up an ambitious idea: "...if data access rates are good enough (usb 1.1 right now) we are going to work on putting a xen guest on the neo and booting the xen guest on a remote (over usb) hypervisor to have a "traveling" virtual machine." That would be wicked once it gets working!
I'm planning on interviewing someone special today for OB1, a local Cleveland technology show. In the mean time, you can checkout my developing iPhone vs. OpenMoko review.
UPDATE (07/07/07): astyle:
Weee!!! I've finished with getting astyle into F-7 testing! I've also managed to build astyle for FC-6, and F-8.
UPDATE (07/04/07): akamaru:
I've built a set of RPMS for akamaru.
UPDATE (07/04/07): createBuildEnv.sh and astyle:
So I built a neat little rpm tool. It's a simple shell script that let's you specify where to place your RPM buildroot, what group and owner you want to have on the directories, create your buildroot, delete your buildroot, and also install and remove rpms related to building rpms. You can clone the git-repo or download the tool. Please let me know what you think!
Evidently, I might also be a co-maintainer for the astyle RPM. I've updated astyle to 1.21.
UPDATE (07/03/07): Updates on summer tasks:
UPDATE (06/03/07): Updates on summer tasks:
UPDATE (05/21/07): I'm working on a few things this summer:
UPDATE (01/14/07): I've added a flag to livecd-creator that you can use to dictate where to build your livecd. Of course this will not eliminate the actual iso being generated in your present working directory. If you do not specify the --build-dir flag when you call livecd-creator it will use the old default of using /var/tmp/livecd-creator. The main improvement, beyond the addition of the --build-dir flag is the space check. This new version of livecd-creator will verify you have at least three gigabytes of free space before continuing. If you don't it will quit and ask you to add more space, or specify a different directory. Have fun!
You can find the new (and unofficial) version of livecd-creator here: livecd-creator .
The current git diff.
UPDATE (01/14/07) - CANCELLED: Fix the kernel module "bug" in livecd-creator and find out how to dynamically generate a list of kernel modules to include.
Potential Bug: Apparently the livecd-creator script doesn't totally cleanup after itself. We need to look at the teardown() method and see why it is failing. This occurs using the original and my modified livecd-script.
I've created a few mrxvt rpms that include the recent patch. You can get the source rpm or the regular i386 rpm. If you have a need for other archs, please let me know! ( gnome (*a*t) dux-linux (dOT) o-r-g ) Enjoy!
